Lesson Plan in Science 10

I. Objectives:

A. Content Standards:

The learners demonstrate an understanding of:

1. Organisms as having feedback mechanisms, which are coordinated by the nervous and endocrine
systems
2. How these feedback mechanisms help the organism maintain homeostasis to reproduce and survive

B. Performance Standards:

C. Learning Competency (LC code):

Describe how the nervous system coordinates and regulates these feedback mechanisms to
maintain homeostasis. (S10LT-IIIc-36)

D. Learning Objectives:

a. Identify the various endocrine glands and its hormones.

b. Summarize the functions of the endocrine glands and the hormone they secrete through a graphic organizer.
c. Infer the role and connection of endocrine system to the general function of the nervous system.

II. Subject Matter:

A. Topic: Endocrine Glands and their Hormones

B. Materials: Video Clips, PowerPoint Presentation
C. References: TG pages 176-178
LM pages 240-244

1. Activating Prior Knowledge (Activity)

Activity 4:
Who’s in Control?

Objective: Identify the major Endocrine glands in

the human body and their functions

2. Acquiring New Knowledge (Analysis)

How important are the endocrine glands in our

body?

3. Abstraction

Gland What it
Regulates

Pituitary “Master
Gland” that
regulates all
other
Endocrine
Glands, also
releases
growth
hormone

Thyroid Metabolism,
body heat,
bone growth

Parathyroids Use of
Calcium and
Phosphorous

Hypothalamus Links nervous

system to
 endocrine
system

Adrenal Response in
emergency or
stressful
situations,
metabolism,
blood
pressure, salt
balance

Pancreas Blood sugar

Ovaries Production of
eggs; female
characteristics

Testes Production of
sperm; male
characteristics

Thymus Parts of the

immune
system

4. Application

How does your Endocrine system function?

e. Evaluation

“Deal or No Deal”

f. Assignment / Agreement:

Read on the effects of Hormones in the

body if not properly regulated.
