MID SEM BREAK: LESSON PLAN ASSIGNMENT
Dear PQI6004,
This week is
actually the mid-term break and from KL, I went back to my hometown, the most
beautiful-city in my heart, Johor Bahru. Of course, your very own house is a
bed full of roses. Eventhough it is a mid-term break, there are no rule that
said no assignment can be given. Since Dr. Dorothy has said in the previous
class about the assignment, I am prepared to answer the question but only on
Friday. Hihihi. Last minute work is always the best for me.
I chose Mitosis subtopic from Biology Form 4 syllabus. My lesson plan is based on the Gagne's 9 Events of Instruction. My created lesson plan is shown as below;
As we need to
create a lesson plan
Subject : Biology (Form 4)
Theme :
Investigating the cell as a basic unit of living things
Topic : Cell division
Objective : Understanding mitosis
Learning Outcomes:
At the end of the lesson,
student will be able to:
1. Identify the phases in the mitosis
2. Explain the process of mitosis
and cytokinesis
3. Arrange the various stages of
mitosis and in the correct sequence
Description of learners: Learners are form 4 students
aged 16 years old and have basic knowledge in science subject. They are a part
of pure science stream class which only accept student that perform well in
their PT3 and are usually excellent in Science and Mathematics subjects.
Teacher have discuss with them on the significance and importance of the production
of new cells in organisms as well as the significance of mitosis in the
previous class. Teacher also have taught them the phases in cell cycle (G1, S,
G2 and M-phase). Student have already know that mitosis and cytokinesis is a
part of the M-phase in cell cycle.Through my assessment in the previous class,
they have achieved the learning outcome of previous class. Hence, student have
the basic knowledge of the importance of cell growth and mitosis and its
significance in real world.
Prerequisite: Students should have the basic
knowledge on cell growth and cell cycle. Students should know the significance
of cell growth and mitosis in their life. In addition, students should
acknowledge mitosis and cytokinesis as a part of M-phase in cell cycle.
Materials: An interactive video on the process of mitosis
and cytokinesis (youtube), projector, LCD and screen, pictures of prepared
slide (onion cells that undergoes mitosis), text book, white board.
Lesson Description: This lesson will focus on the
various stages of mitosis and cytokinesis (the M-phase of cell cycle). Firstly,
teacher should brief and remind the students on the previous lesson and relate
them today lesson. Then, gain their attention by showing interactive video on
stages of mitosis and cytokinesis. Next, teacher should explain each stages in
the videos, teach the student on the specific characteristic of each stages and
how to differentiate them. During the group activity, teacher should facilitate
the student, but teacher should not give them the answer. When the student
presented their answer and explain them, teacher may give comment and ask some
questions to know their level of understanding on today lesson. Essentially, teacher
should comment the students answers generally and correct misconceptions, if
any. Teacher should also praise them. Last but not least, teacher should give
some hand-outs such as notes to strengthen their knowledge on the lesson.
Lesson Procedure: This lesson will teach the
students on the various stages of mitosis and cytokinesis.
1.
Briefing and remind the previous class session (3
minutes)
For this introduction session,
teacher can ask the class on the significance of cell growth and mitosis that
has been discussed in the previous session. By having an question and answers
(Q&A) session, teachers can correct students misconceptions and remind them
what they have learn in the previous class. Teacher also should connect and
relate the previous lesson with today lesson (relate the significance of cell
growth and mitosis to the various stages of mitosis and cytokinesis)
2.
Interactive video on mitosis and cytokinesis (7
minutes)
The interactive video on
mitosis and cytokinesis will help student to visualize the mitosis and
cytokinesis stages and observe the differences between stages as well as
understand relationship between stages of mitosis and cytokinesis.
3.
Teaching and Q and A session (30 minutes)
Teacher will explain each
stages of mitosis and cytokinesis while pausing on each stage of the video.
Here, there will be a two-way communication where students can ask anything
related to the mitosis stages during the explaination. If any student have
misconceptions, teacher may know from their question and facial expression. Teachers
will ask student some questions to strengthen their knowledge on mitosis and
cytokinesis. Teacher should ask some high-order-thinking skills (HOTS) question
.
4.
Group activities (10 minutes)
Teacher will show prepared
slides on onion cells that are undergoing mitosis and cytokinesis on screen. Each
slide will represent each stages of mitosis and cytokinesis and are labelled as
A-E. Students will be given an answer sheet where they will write their own
arragement and explain the reason. The answer sheet as attached.
5.
Presentation of their arrangement and
explaination on their answer (25 minutes)
Each group will send one
representative to present their answer and explain their answers. Since they
are five groups, each group will be given 5 minutes.
6.
Discussion and Q&A session (10 minutes)
Clarification from teacher on
students answer and Q&A session. In this session, teachers can tell the
correct answer, discuss and explain the slide. Show them what is the specific
characteristics of each stages and how to differentiate them once again. Praise
the students that able to arrange correctly and correct the students that
arrange wrongly. Teacher should give encouragement and motivation to them and
ask them some questions to identify their misconceptions and correct them.
7.
Ending the lesson (2 minutes)
The teacher should end the
lesson with reflection by one or two students on the lesson. Then, teacher will
hand out some notes for the student to read and strengthen their knowledge on
the topic.Teacher give student a project as homework where they have to produce
a mitosis beads of mitosis of certain stage. Teacher give an youtube link as
guidance.
Assessment: For today’s assessment, it is
during the group activities where teacher gave the student the answer sheet for
the student to discuss and answer. In addition to arrange the stages of mitosis
and cytokinesis, student should answer what is the specific characteristics of
each stages and they need to answer some questions. The answer sheet is as
attached.
