Lesson Plan in Science (Grade 7)

August 22, 2018

I. Lesson Objectives
The learners should be able to:
1. Describe each step of a scientific investigation.
2. Perform in groups in guided investigations involving community-based problems using
locally available.
3. Solve their daily life problem using scientific method.
II. Learning Content
a. Topic : Scientific Methods
b. Resources : Book, chalkboard, video, projector, laptop, skittles
c. Methodology : Lecture Method and Demonstration
d. Concepts :
1. Scientific method is the basic steps that scientists follow in uncovering facts and
solving scientific problems
2. Observation is watching and noticing around
3. Question is a question problem that can be solved through an experimentation
4. Hypothesis is a prediction about what will happen with the experiment
5. Experimentation is organized process used to test a hypothesis
6. Analysis is a summary of the experiment’s results, and how those results match
up to your hypothesis.
7. Conclusion is the final result of the experiment
e. Skill : Students will be able to use the scientific method to solve problems and
collect data-based observations.
f. Value : Students will be able to use the scientific method to solve daily
problems.

III. Learning Procedure
a. Apperception/ Motivation
Teacher will ask the question: What are you thinking about how scientists discover new
knowledge and update their previous knowledge?. Scientists try to understand and
describe events and processes in nature through systematic investigation. The methods
scientists use during an investigation are called scientific method. And then teacher
show Fransesco Redi’s picture and his experiment.
b. Lesson Proper:
1. Ask student about what is scientific method and discuss it
2. Introduce 5 steps of scientific method and keep asking to make sure that they are
understand
3. Watch a video about using scientific method for solving problem
4. Give an example how to state question, hypothesis, experimentation, analysis, and
conclusion based on the video.
5. Do an experiment using scientific method.
6. Discuss the questions in the lab sheet
7. Accomodate students to make a conclusion for today lesson.
c. Generalization
Ask some students to share their own understanding of the lesson by giving a summary
IV. Learning Evaluation
Seatwork
Arrange the following steps of the scientific method in the proper order. Put number 1 to 6 on
the space provided beside each item.
________________ Anylze data
________________ Collect Observations
________________ Make a hypothesis
________________ Identify the problem/questions
________________ Arrive at a conclusion
________________ Test the hypothesis
Match the terms in the column A with the correct definition in column B. Write your answer
in the space provided before each items.
A B
________________ 1. Hypothesis
________________ 2. Experiment
________________ 3. Conclusion
________________ 4. Scientific method
________________ 5. Observation
________________ 6. Data
________________ 7. Variable
a. Organized process used to test a
hypothesis
b. Watching and noticing events that
happen during an experiment
c. The information you collect from
the experiment
d. A prediction about what will happen
with the experiment
e. The process scientists follow to
complete an investigation (question,
hypothesis,...)
f. Factors that can be changed and can
affect the results of an experiment.
g. The summary of an experiment and
its result

V. Assignment activity
Write ten laboratory safety procedures/rules because the next lesson we will study about
general lab procedure! You can write it on the paper sheet.
