The document outlines a 4th quarter science lesson plan for grade 8, focusing on cell division, specifically mitosis and meiosis. It includes objectives for student understanding of heredity, chromosomes, and the mechanisms of genetic variation, along with a detailed lesson structure involving teacher and student activities. Assessment methods include multiple-choice questions to evaluate student knowledge on hereditary traits and chromosome structure.

Good morning, class.
Arrange your chairs properly, pick up the pieces of paper and
you may take your sit.
Good morning, sir.
Thank you!

3. Who are present/ absent today?
Are you now ready for our new discussions?
The class monitor checks the attendance.
Yes, sir,
Elicit
Before we start with our discussion
when you look at your parents you can see features that you
share with them, right?
Why do you so?
Very good, heredity it is where traits are passed from parents to
offspring.
But look at your brother and sister, you can observe that even if
you have same parents, you are unique to each other, what do
you think we call it in biology?
Very good, so when we talk about heredity and variation, we are
studying genetics, in your own idea, why?
Very good.
It is because of heredity.
Variation sir.
Genetics is the study of heredity and variation
Engage
Where do you think we inherit those traits and how it transfers
to us generation by generation?
What is the meaning of DNA?
So, in simple terms, what is DNA?
By means of reproduction, our parent shares the
DNA to us.
Deoxyribonucleic acid
DNA are genetic materials that serve as the set of
instruction that direct the activity and function of the
cells.
Explore
The teacher will present a video clip about the chromosomes
in front.
guide question
1. what is chromosomes?
2. what are the parts of the chromosomes?
3. what are the importance of chromosomes?
The student will answer the given guide question.

4. The teacher will call every representative of the group to answer
the guide question and will listen to the answer and correct some
misconception if there is any.
Student’s possible answer
1. chromosomes are the entire chain of DNA
2.telomere, centromere, p arm and q arm
3.Chromosomes allow DNA to be accurately copied
during these cell divisions
Elaborate
To have a depth discussion of the chromosomes, the teacher will
draw the chromosomes and it parts. The teacher will also discuss
it accompanied by the video clip that was presented last time and
the teacher will also post the table about the number of the
chromosomes of the selected organism.
The student will take note while listening to the
discussion.
