Detailed Lesson Plan (DLP) Format

DLP No.: 3 Learning Area: Earth & Life Science Grade Level: 12 Quarter: 1 Duration: 1 hr.
Learning 3.Recognize the uniqueness of Earth, being the only planet in the Code: S11/12ES-
Competency/ies: Solar System with properties necessary to support life Ia-e-3

4. Explain that the Earth consists of four subsystems, across whose Code: S11/12ES-Ia-
boundaries matter and energy flow. e-4
Key Concepts / Uniqueness of the Earth
Understandings The Earth’s four subsystems, namely: geosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere.
The four subsystems are linked systems-any change in one system, affects the other.
to be Developed
Domain Adapted Cognitive Process Dimensions (D.O. No. 8, s. 2015) 1. Objectives
Knowledge Categories: Behavioral Verbs:
describe the properties of earth necessary to support life
Describe the four subsystems of the Earth.
Skills Use the illustration of water cycle to explain how the different subsystems are interrelated
Attitude Demonstrate accountability through suggesting ways on how to maintain balance in the four
subsystems
Values Makakalikasan
Practice taking care of the environment
2. Content Earth and Earth Systems
3. Learning Resources Materials: Manila paper, pictures of the different subsystems, marking pen, glue,
tape (masking tape), laptop, projector
Learning Materials: textbook, internet
4. Procedures
4.1 Introductory Activity There will be a short game entitled, “Four Pics One Word.” Four pictures will be shown which will tell
( 1 minute). what the word is.

Transition Sentence: Based from your answer, what do you think will be our topic for today? Are you
ready to learn now?
4.2 Activity Gallery Walk (There will be four groups.)
( 10minutes). 1. In this activity, the teacher posts 4 Manila papers on the wall. Each Manila paper will be pasted
with pictures where each will represent one of the subsystems of the Earth. Then the teacher
will call a member of the group (each member will have an assigned number) randomly which
will write on what they have seen in the pictures.
2. The teacher has prepared Meta strips in four different colors which represents the four
subsystems. Then, she will call another member of the groups to paste it on the Manila paper
which they think corresponds to the description given.
3. Lastly, the teacher has prepared strips of paper also which have descriptions of the four
subsystems. She will call members from the four groups to tape it on the Manila paper which
they think corresponds to the title/topic.
Transition Statement: After you have given your descriptions to the four subsystems, let us check
 whether your answers are correct.
4.3 Analysis ( 15 minutes). Active Learning/Discussion Strategies/Collaborative-Cooperative Learning
In this activity, a representative from each group will pick a rolled paper prepared by the teacher to
determine what subsystem of the Earth they will report. Before the reporter will make the report, all
members of the group must brainstorm if all the strips being pasted in their assigned subsystem are
correct. If not, then they have to try to correct it into which subsystem it belongs. Then the reporting
follows.
Transition Statement: After having learned what these four subsystems of the Earth are, let us deepen
our understanding by viewing this power point presentation. At the same time, I want you to recall in
your mind about the different nutrient cycles.
4.4 Abstraction Spatial
( 15 minutes). The teacher will show a power point presentation of the topic to deepen students’ understanding of the
Earth’s subsystem. Then the teacher will show an illustration of the water cycle and ask some students
to explain how the different subsystems are interrelated.
Transition Statement: Now that you’ve learned that each subsystem affects one another, I want
you to….
4.5 Application Critical Thinking
( 5 minutes). Each group will be given 2 minutes to make a suggestion that advocates/helps everybody be aware of
the importance of maintaining balance/equilibrium in the relationships and interactions between the
subsystems that make up the Earth. After 2 minutes, “May I hear from Group 1…. And lastly Group 4.”
Transition Statement: Teacher – “Now you are ready for an oral test. It will be a collaborative one.”
4.6 Assessment ( 8 minutes).

Assessment Method Possible Activities

d) Tests Oral Test:
The teacher calls any member of the group to choose any of the prepared questions in a meta strip.
Then the group collaborates as to what the answer is. As the teacher will call the group, they all will
state their answer orally.
1. Describe each of the Earth’s four subsystems in one word.
2. In one sentence explain how the Earth’s subsystems affect one another.
3. In the water cycle, identify in which part of the cycle the subsystems are involved.
4. Give/suggest at least one activity that will help in maintaining balance of the four
subsystems.

Rubrics: 5- accuracy (100% followed the instruction), prompt in answering ( give the answer on
time), complete thought idea given
4- accuracy ( did not follow what is asked), prompt in answering, complete thought or
Idea
3 – accuracy (100% followed the instruction), not prompt in answering ( give the answer
on time), complete thought idea given
2 - accuracy (100% followed the instruction), prompt in answering, not complete
thought or Idea
1 - accuracy (did not follow what is asked), not prompt in answering, not complete
thought or Idea
4.7 Assignment (1 minute). Fill-in below any of the four purposes:
 Enriching / inspiring the day’s lesson
In your own little way, even at your young age, what can you do in your own community to help maintain the balance
of the flow of energy and matter in the Earth’s system?
4.8 Concluding Activity ( 2 minutes). Describe the properties of the Earth necessary
to support life.

1. Remarks Indicate below special cases including but not limited to continuation of lesson plan to the following day in case of re-teaching or lack of time,
transfer of lesson to the following day, in cases of class suspension, etc.

3. Reflection Reflect on your teaching and assess yourself as a teacher. Think about your student’s progress this week. What works? What else needs to be
done to help the students learn? Identify what help your instructional supervisors can provide for you so when you meet them, you can ask
s them relevant questions. Indicate below whichever is/are appropriate.
