(Varied answers from the students)
Presentation
Now class, the topic that we are

going to tackle today is all about the
digestive system.
As we continue the discussion, I have
here a short video clip regarding the
digestive system.
View and take down important facts
and information for I will ask questions later.
Yes, Sir!
Class, based from the video clip how
does digestion begins?
It starts from the mouth Sir.
Very good! That is the first stage
which undergone the process of ingestion.
What is the next organ that the food
pass through?
Sir, the esophagus.
Exactly! Youre correct! Then how
does esophagus work?
Sir, esophagus works as a passage
way of food in order to reach the stomach by
the process of peristalsis.
Excellent answer! After esophagus is
now the whats the next?
Stomach Sir!
Youre right! Whats the role of the
stomach in the system?
The stomach where it mixes with
juices and acids and where digestion takes
place.
Very good! Digestion is the second
stage/process involved in food processing.
What is the next organ?
Small intestine Sir!
Thats correct, how does small
intestine work?
Sir, it is where the absorption of
nutrients will take place to be used by the
cell.
Very good answer! Absorption is the
third stage/process kin the digestion of
foods.
What is the next organ involved in
the digestive system after small intestines?

Large intestine Sir!
How is the role of this organ in the
digestion?
The large intestine is used to
absorbed water from the waste material
leftover.
Very good!
After that whats next?
All
leftover
waste
material
compacted and stored at the end of the large
intestine called the rectum before they are
excreted out of the body through the anus.
Excellent! That is now the last stage

in the digestion, the process involved is
elimination.
There are also attached some
accessory organs that help to maximize
digestions of foods. What are they?
Sir these are the liver, gall bladder
and pancreas.
Ok! In what ways these organs help
in the digestion?
Liver helps in the production of bile
which help in the excretion of excess
cholesterol.
Gall bladder stores bile until it is
needed in the small intestines.
Pancreas secretes insulin and
glucagon, for the digestion of starch, fats and
proteins.
Very good!
Do you now understand how
digestion take place and how the different
organs of the digestive system work together
to digest foods and use by the body.
Yes Sir!
Any
supplement?
questions?
Additional
or
None Sir!
Then, may I ask the class if how

much you have understood the topic.
What are the different organs of the

digestive system? How these organs work in
the digestion of foods?
Students

Ill give you 5 minutes to do and 5

minutes to present/discuss your output in
front.
Yes, Sir!
Generalization
Digestion starts when food is taken
into the mouth.
What do you call the stage/process
where in is the taking in of food through the
mouth?
Ingestion
The second stage/process which
involved in the breaking down of foods into
nutrients.
Digestion
The next stage/process in the
digestive process which involved in the
taking in of nutrients by the cell.
Absorption
And the last process that is removing
of any leftover wastes/materials from the
body.
Elimination
That you have learned and
understood how the digestive system works,
how and what practice you will do in order
to maintain healthy body?

All animals need to eat _______________ to get _______________ to live. But in order to
use this food, they have to break it down in a process called _______________. And so, all animals
have a group of connected organs called the digestive _______________.
In humans, the process of digestion begins in the _______________ where food is
_______________ into small pieces by the teeth. The _______________ helps by moving these
pieces around. There pieces are covered by _______________, or spit. The saliva makes the food
slippery so that it is easier to _______________. It also helps to break down the food.
Once the food is swallowed, it passes through the _______________, which is like a gate
that sends food into the _______________ and air into the lungs. The food travels down the
esophagus and into the _______________. Once in the stomach the food is mixed with
_______________ and crushed some more.
After spending some time in the stomach, the food is sent into the _______________ where
nutrients are _______________. The _______________ helps by producing some digestive juices
called bile. Next, the remaining food goes into the _______________ where the _______________
are absorbed. The remaining food is called _______________ and it is pushed into the
_______________ where it waits before leaving the body.
