The lesson plan is a very important tool for teaching. Today we are going to discuss the lesson plan on Nutrition
Lesson plan on Photosynthesis
| Name of the Teacher: XX Roll No: 00 Class: X The average age of the students: 15 + years | Subject: Life Science Lesson Whole: Life Process Lesson Unit: Nutrition Duration: 40 Minutes Date: DD/MM/YY |
General Aims
- To create interest in the students to study the subject Life Science
- To develop power of reasoning, thinking and imagination of scientific skills
Specific Objective
- To enable them to understand the energy source of living things
- Students will be able to learn about the nutrition
- To enable them to know about the importantce of Nutrition
Teaching Aids
Blackboard, chalk, duster, chart,and pointer
Step-I Preparation
Motivation: In order to motivate the students the following questions will be asked
| Questions | Expected Answer |
| Is plant living things? | Yes |
| How do plants make their food? | By the process of photosynthesis |
| How do we take food? | Through our mouth |
| Why do we take food? | To get energy |
Announcement
Well, class today we have discussed that like animals and human beings plants also living things. Plants get their food by the process of photosynthesis.
So, class today we are going to learn about ‘Nutrition’
Step-II Presentation
| Teaching Points | Instructional Objectives | Teaching Methods | Teacher’s activity/ Discussion | Blackboard work | Testing-Learning outcomes | Learning Outcomes |
| 1. Introduction on Nutrition | Student’s will be able to learn about the importance of food | Lecture and Discussion Method | All the living things like plants, Animals and Human beings need food to keep alive and get energy. Plant get their food by the process of photosynthesis. Animals take their food through mouth called ingestion | Green plants and some bacteria prepare food by using some inorganic sources such as carbon dioxide and water by the process of photosynthesis | 1. Name two raw materials of photosynthesis | knowledge: Students learned about the importance of food |
| 2. Definition of Nutrition | Students will able to define the term ‘Nutrition’ | Lecture | Nutrition can be defined as a substance which an organism obtains from its surrounding and uses it as a source of energy. | We obtain nutrition from various nutrients. Some important nutrients are carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, proteins and minerals etc | 2. Define the term Nutrition | nderstand: Students understand the Nutrition is obtained from Nutrients. |
| 3. Modes of Nutrition | Students will be able to learn about the modes of Nutrition | Lecture and Discussion method | There are basic two modes of nutrition they are- (i) Autotrophic and (ii) Heterotrophic Nutrition | Two modes of Nutrition- Autotrophic: Nutrition in which organisms makes its own food Ex- green plants, autotrophic bacteria Heterotrophic: The mode of nutrition in which organism cannot makes its own food Ex- all animals | 3. Name two modes of nutrition with one example each | Application: Students can identify two modes of nutrition |
| 4. Types of Heterotrophic Nutrition | Students will be able to learn about the different types of heterotrophic nutrition | Heterotrophic mode of nutrition is of three types- i. Saprotrophic Nutrition ii. Parasitic Nutrition iii. Holozoic Nutrition | -Organism having saprophytic mode of nutrition are called saprophytes Saprophytes are the organism which obtained food from dead and decaying e.g: Fungi (Bread moulds) -A parasite is an organism (plants or animals which feed on another living organism called its host Ex- Plasmodium -Holozoic Nutrition is that nutrition in which an organism takes the complex organic food materials into its body by the process of ingestion Ex-Human beings and most of the animals | 4.Name the different types of heterotrophic nutrition | Skills: Students able to differentiate the different types of hetrotrophic nutrition | |
Step-III Recapitulation
In order to test pupil’s understanding of the lesson just taught, the following question will be asked
- Define the term Nutrition
- Why do we need Nutrition?
- Name two modes of Nutrition
- What are autotrophs?
- Give one examples of parasite
Step-IV Remedial Teaching
Remedial teaching will be done if found necessary
Step-V Home Assignment
- Explain the different types of heterotrophic nutrition with examples
Conclusion: So class, today we have learned about ‘Nutrition’. In the next class we will learn about ‘Nutrition in Human’
