Teaching Plan

A.      Curriculum

Based on my observations, the curriculum used at the BSU-Elementary Laboratory School is the K-12 curriculum. The K-12 curriculum itself is a curriculum that has hitherto been applied or applied in the process of organizing education in the Philiipines. We need to know that the K-12 Kindergarten covers curriculum and 12 years of primary education, four years of Junior High School, and two years of Senior High School) to provide sufficient time for mastery of concepts and skills, develop lifelong learners, and prepare graduates for tertiary education, middle-level skills development, employment, and entrepreneurship. Looking at the structure of the K-12 curriculum, this curriculum leads to the type of separated subject curriculum. This can be seen with separate subjects.

Curriculum K-12

The subjects taught in grades 1 to 10 are as follows.

1. Mother Tongue

2. Filipino

3. English

4. Mathematics

5. Science

6. Araling Panlipunan

7. Edukasyonsa Pagpapakatao (EsP)

8. Music

9. Arts

10. Physical Education

11. Health

12. Edukasyon Pantahanan at Pangkabuhayan (EPP)

Regarding the comparison of curriculum in the Philippines with Indonesia, now Indonesia has implemented a new curriculum called the 2013 curriculum (K13) where the curriculum leads to the type of integrated curriculum. This can be seen by the unification of several subjects in one theme, such as science, social, art, citizenship, and Indonesian language lessons.

B.       Teaching Plan Related to My Major

Here I will show about teaching plan related to my major. From here it can be seen about how the planning of learning is carried out. Planning starts from determining learning objectives, selecting learning media, implementing learning steps, until designing evaluation tools.

                      III.      Lesson Procedures

A.      Preparation

1.         Review of Past Lesson

Teacher will review about the “Branches of Science” for students.

2.         Motivation

Teacher will introduce about Check Check Sound Claps to pupils.

Check Sound!

Check Check Sound

Check Check Check Sound

Check Chec Sound

Cheer to the Up

Cheer Up!!!

Instruction: Question will be thrown to the pupils

a.         Please at look your hands, are you sure that it is clean?

b.        If we look with our naked eye, we can say that it is clean. Actually, inside our hands there are germs/microbes. How we can we see the germs/microbes in our hands?

c.         Have you ever seen a microscope?

d.        Do you know about a microscope?

e.         Do you know what a microscope is used for?

f.         Do you know its parts and its functions?

After that, the teacher will write the headline topic that will be learned.

B.       Presentation of the Lesson

The teacher will divide the pupils into 10 groups (the pupils have to count 1-10). Each group will get a microscope.

The teacher will explain about the definition of the microscope and its founder.

C.      Discussion

The teacher will show and explain the parts of a microscope and its function, and teacher will ask the pupils about the fuction of some of the parts of a microscope.

·      Eyepiece                                                =  an ocular lens to observe

    observed objects/

    reconnaissance holes

·      Eyepiece Tube                                      =  connects the eyepiece to

    the objective lenses

·      Objectives                                             =  lens that is close to the

    object being observed

·      Frame                                                    =  supports the tube and

    connects it to the base

·      Nosepiece Objective Turret                  =  holds two or more

    objective lenses and can

    be rotated to easily

    change power

·      Stage                                                     =  the flat platform where

    for place the slides

·      Stage Clips                                             =  hold the slides in place

·      Iris Diaphragm Condenser                    =  a rotating disk under the

    stage

·      Coarse Focus                                         =  to move the lowest power

    objective lens down close

    on the stage

·      Fine Focus                                             =  to make the focus clearer

·      Illumination System                              =  a steady light source

    (110 volt) used in place

    of a mirror

·      Base                                                       =  at the bottom of the

    microscope which is

    used for support

The teacher will explain that a compound microscope has an optical system, a mechanical system, and a light system. The teacher will ask the pupils to identify what parts of a microscope that is included in each system.

D.      Generalization

Instruction: The teacher will ask the following questions to summarize the lesson.

1.         What is a microscope?

2.         What are the parts of a microscope and its function?

3.         Why do you need to learn about the parts and functions of a microscope?

E.       Application

The teacher will invite a pupil to join the game, the game is Spin the Wheel. The teacher will also explain  the rules of the game. The game is done with the group. Each group will have a representative to spin the game.

The pupils will answer and get the small paper (containing the parts of a microscope) and then the students will identify where does the part of the microscope it belong, a picture of a microscope that has blank space will be shown in front of class. The questions that will be given to the pupils are the following:

1.         Eyepieces/Ocular Lens

2.         Eyepiece Tube

3.         Frame

4.         Revolving Nosepiece or Turret

5.         Objectives
