III. METHODOLOGY

Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity

A. PRELIMINARY ACTIVITIES:

1) Prayer The students will stand and the officer-of-the-

day will lead the prayer.

2) Setting learning environment The students will arrange the chairs and clean
their area.
 2

“Please arrange your chairs, I want a straight

arrangement of the chairs and pick up the liters on
the floor”

Student 1: Yesterday, we learned about the

digestive system. We studied about how it
3) Teacher will ask student/s to give recap of works and the effects of bad eating habits to
yesterday’s lesson the system.

Student 2: We had an activity wherein we

created a digestive system model using
pictures of foods we consider good and
healthy.

4) Motivation (Video)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDrV33rZlyA

The class will watch the video and take down

important points.
“I will let you watch a video. Take down notes the
important points. We will discuss it later.”

B) ESTABLISHING PURPOSE

“Today we are going to learn about how the

respiratory and circulatory system work together
and how our lifestyle affects their condition. At the
end of our lesson you should be able to,
 Familiarize yourself with the respiratory and
circulatory system and their parts;
 Understand how they function together;
 Identify activities or habits that may affect how
they function; and
 Give recommendations on how to take care of the
systems.

C) DISCUSSION/LESSON PROPER
Class: Gas Exchange Ma’am.
Let us now discuss the video. What was it all about
class?
Student 1: It involves the heart and the lungs
Ma’am.
What are the two human organs that are involved
in the process, (student )?
 3

That’s correct, what is the first stage in the Student 2: After the tissue used the oxygen, it will
process, (student )? then return to the heart, the blood now is
deoxygenated.

Very good. The bloods flows through the venule, Student 3: From the heart, the blood will now
the veins and the vuena cave. The reason why it is pass through pulmonary artery.
called deoxygenated is because there are more
carbon dioxide than oxygen. What happens next,
(student )?

That’s right. Let’s continue. What will now happen,
(student )?
Very well said. There will now be more oxygen
than carbon dioxide in the blood.
Student 4: The carbon dioxide that will pass
through the lungs will be off loaded by the
organ and then the oxygen will be taken in. So
there will be an oxygenated blood which will
go through pulmonary artery going to the
heart.

Then what happens next (student )? Student 5: The oxygenated blood will now pass
through the aorta and the arteries to reach the
tissue. And from there the cycle repeats
Ma’am.

That’s correct. To summarize, blood is the fuel that keeps

you going! Oxygenated blood is brought to organs and
tissues via the arteries, while veins bring deoxygenated
blood back to the heart to be replenished. The point is,
without the respiratory system your blood would be useless.

The circulatory and respiratory systems work together to

circulate blood and oxygen throughout the body. Air moves
in and out of the lungs through the trachea, bronchi, and
bronchioles. Blood moves in and out of the lungs through the
pulmonary arteries and veins that connect to the heart.

The pulmonary vessels operate backwards from the rest of

the body's vasculature: The pulmonary arteries carry
deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs, and the
pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood back to the heart
to be distributed to the body.

Do you have any questions or clarifications?

None Ma’am.

D) DEVELOPING MASTERY

Teacher: “I will divide the class into 4 groups. Each

group will receive a worksheet. I will give you 10
minutes.
 Grp.-1 will identify the parts of the Respiratory
System (first two columns) All members of each group will participate in
 Grp.-2 will discuss the air flow in the Respiratory answering the worksheet.
System (second two columns)
 4

 Grp.-3 will identify the parts of the Circulatory System

(third two columns)
 Grp.-4 will discuss the blood flow in the Circulatory
System (last two columns)

This will test how much you remember from your

previous science lessons. Answer as much as you can
afterwards, we will check your output. Afterwards,
two representatives from each group will discuss in
front the different parts of the system and the blood
flow and breathing process.

Teacher will give each group a piece of paper and

monitor the group’s discussion. After 10 minutes,
teacher will call representative from each group to
discuss the group’s output

“Let us begin with Groups 1 – Respiratory System “ (Group-1 will identify the parts of Respiratory
System)
 Nose
 Mouth
 Larynx
 lung
 bronchi
 Diaphragm
 pharynx
 trachea
 bronchi
 bronchioles
 alveoli

Very good, now let us call group 2 to discuss the air (Group-2 will discuss the flow of air in the
flow in the respiratory system. Respiratory System)

 Rest of the body

Good job everyone! It seems that it is really very

important to familiarize ourselves with its parts
and how it functions so that you will appreciate the
importance of keeping these two systems healthy.

Remember I gave you an assignment to conduct

interview with local health staff/personnel on tips
on how to take care of our respiratory and
circulatory systems.”

PHYSICAL HEALTH
 9

- Getting adequate rest and sleep,

- drinking enough water
- practicing good grooming habits.

MENTAL HEALTH
- . Talk about your feelings
- Keep in touch - There’s nothing better than catching up with someone face to face, but that’s not always
possible. You can also give them a call, drop them a note, or chat to them online instead. Keep the lines of
communication open: it’s good for you!
- Ask for help - None of us are superhuman. We all sometimes get tired or overwhelmed by how we feel or
when things don’t go to plan.
- Take a break - A change of scene or a change of pace is good for your mental health.It could be a five-
minute pause from cleaning your kitchen, a half-hour lunch break at work, or a weekend exploring
somewhere new. A few minutes can be enough to de-stress you. Give yourself some ‘me time’

EMOTIONAL

- Care for others - Caring for others is often an important part of keeping up relationships with people
close to you. It can even bring you closer together. It’s a two-way street – uplift each-other’s self-esteem

- Grow your circle of friends. "It's very important that you have a support group of friends and family,"
Gardere says. "You need people whom you can talk to about your problems — people who will listen to
you when you need to get things off your chest — so that you know you're not alone in whatever it is."
- Learn more. "Knowledge is power," Gardere says. If you have a problem, learn whatever you can about
the issue or the health condition you're facing. The more you know, the less you will fear what might
happen, Gardere says.
- Get moving. Any form of exercise that you enjoy will do. "Regular exercise works as a good partner for
people who are on medication," Gardere says. Exercise also works well for people who have mild or
moderate depression and don't need to be on medication. Think of it as a great tool for stress
management.
- Develop a passion. Everyone should have at least one hobby, Gardere says, whether it's taking care of
plants, collecting antiques, or listening to music. You should do something that brings you some real joy
— a passion that's all yours and that no one can take from you. Having a hobby and taking pride in it is a
great way to boost self-esteem.

SOCIAL

 Be friendly: If you want friends, be friendly.

 Listen: God gave you two ears and one mouth. Use them proportionally.
 Turn off the TV: Especially if someone is trying to talk to you. (most of it is crap anyway)
 Put your phone down: It’s OK to be unavailable. You aren’t the President.
 Make your real life awesome: Your FAKEbook life should never be better than your real one.
 Be patient: You never know what someone is going through.
 Do something fun: Go out and experience things. Try something new.
 Random Act of Kindness: Do something kind for someone without expecting anything in return.
Sometimes it’s the smallest thing that can change someone’s life.
 Say “I love you”: Always tell the people you care about that you love them. Life is short. You will
never regret saying it but you may regret not.

SPIRITUAL

- Explore your spiritual core. By exploring your spiritual core, you are simply asking yourself questions
about the person you are and your meaning. Ask yourself: Who am I? What is my purpose? What do I
 10

value most? These questions will lead you down a road where you will think more in-depth about
yourself and allow you to notice things about yourself that will help you achieve fulfillment.

- Meditate and pray. Prayer and meditation are activities you can engage in daily, or many times a
day. By incorporating it into your daily routine, you can maintain your spiritual health in the same way
that you maintain your physical health. Pray or meditate by yourself or with a group.
 Join a prayer group at your place of worship.
 Gather with a yoga and meditation group in parks and other natural places.
 Go on a silent meditation retreat.
 Take a trip with a church group.
 Make a pilgrimage to a holy place.

Reflect on your beliefs. Rather than being a passive believer, maintain your spiritual health
by questioning, affirming, and revising the principles of your faith.
 Write down the things you hold to be true, and write a little bit about them.
 If something is troubling you, don't hide it from yourself. Share it with someone you trust, and
discuss your concerns together.
