Study Notes
Lesson Plan in Science 9: Photosynthesis
- Objectives: Students will describe the process of photosynthesis and differentiate basic features and importance of photosynthesis and respiration.
Photosynthesis in Plants
- Learning Competency: Differentiate basic features and importance of photosynthesis.
- Subject Matter: Photosynthesis and respiration.
- Reference: Science 9 SLM (Student Learning Module).
- Materials: Laptop, PowerPoint presentation, module.
Procedure
-
Preliminary Activities:
- Set up online class using Zoom.
- Prayer and attendance check.
- Review of previous lesson. Discuss what food or energy sources students consumed before class and whether there was a gain or loss of energy.
-
Lesson Proper:
- Introduction: Students discuss recent food/energy intake and its impact.
- Discussion:
- Review producers, consumers, and decomposers in a food web.
- Explain that photosynthesis is a process used by photoautotrophs to make their own food. Clarify the meaning of "photo" and "synthesis" in relation to the process.
- Explain that plants are not the only organisms capable of photosynthesis.
- Introduce the chemical equation for photosynthesis using a slide: 6CO2 + 6H2O + Light energy (chlorophyll) → C6H12O6 + 6O2. Emphasize the reactants (carbon dioxide and water) and products (glucose and oxygen) and their importance.
