 LESSON PLAN IN CHEMISTRY
GRADE VIII

I. Objectives
At the end of the period, the students are expected to:
A. state the differences of the three classification of Carbohydrates,
B. respond to the roles of carbohydrates in the human body, and
C. creates artistically a graphic organizer about the three classifications of carbohydrates including its form.
II. Subject Matter:
A. Topic: Classification of Carbohydrates
B. Science Idea:
A carbohydrate is a large biological molecule, or macromolecule, consisting of carbon (C),
hydrogen (H), and oxygen (O) atoms.

Classification of Carbohydrates:
Monosaccharide is simply sugars which consist of one sugar unit. Its chemical formula is
C6H21O6. (Ex. glucose, galactose and fructose)

Disaccharide is a simple sugar which consists of two sugar unit. (Ex. sucrose, lactose and maltose)

Polysaccharide is a complex form of carbohydrates that consist of three or more sugar units.
(Ex. starch, glycogen, cellulose and chitin)

C. Science Processes: describing, classifying, observing and comparing

D. Reference: Biology, p. 47-48

E. Materials: Projector, laptop, powder sample of monosaccharide, disaccharide and liquid sample of
polysaccharide and Activity sheet.

F. Value focus:
Recognizing the significance of carbohydrates in organisms

III. Developmental Activities:

Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity

A. Pre- Activity

1. Unfreezing
In order for you to become energetic and lively in this
class I have prepared a funny game which you
will enjoy ever.

2. Word Drill
I have here cut outs of flower vase on the board.
Everybody read the word written on it.

3. Unlocking of difficulties
Inside of the flower vase is the meaning of the
word. Lift out the arrow on each flower vase for
you to know the definitions of each word.
Carbohydrates are a source of energy and include

units. (Ex. starch, glycogen, cellulose and chitin) that consist of three or more sugar units.

POLYSACCHARIDE

4. Review

What are the properties of water?

The properties of water are universal solvent,specific
heat capacity, heat of vaporization, high heat of fusion,
What do you think will happen if there is no water? and high heat of melting point and boiling point.

5. Motivation If there is no water all life on earth would die.

I have here a group of picture of a food in the board.
Look each group of food and try to think what are my
bases of classifying them.

I have here an incomplete words which you are

going to complete it by putting the correct letters on
the blank. Read all the words after it is being
completed.

You will learn more about these words as we
proceed to our discussion.

B. Activity Proper

1.Grouping of students
I have here cut outs of different objects on the board.
Form a line and get one object that you like.

GROUP M

GROUP-D

GROUP- P
 (If everybody had already picked, say):

Now look at the object that you have and try to name
it. For those whose object has only one word will be
the Group- M. The Group- D are those who got the
object with two words and lastly for those with two or
more words will be the Group-P.

Find your group and stay to the areas where I labeled

of your group.

Assign your leader, reporter and secretary.

2. Giving of Activity Cards/Sheets

Group leaders kindly get your activity sheet and

materials here in front.

3. Perform the Activity by Group

Group- M

Direction: Read and follow what is said in the activity

sheet.

Materials:Sample of monosaccharide (glucose,

galactose and fructose.

Examine the sample of monosaccharide and fill in the

table below base on their color, taste and odor.

Color Taste Odor Color Taste Odor

Glucose Glucose White sweet odorless
Galactose crystal
Fructose Galactose White sweet odorless
crystal
Fructose Pure white sweeter odorless

Group-D

Direction: Read and follow what is said in the activity

sheet.

Materials:Sample of disaccharide (sucrose, lactose

and fructose and Activity sheet.

Examine the sample of disaccharide and fill in the

table below base on their color, taste and odor.

Color Taste Odor Color Taste Odor

 Sucrose Sucrose Crystalline sweet odorless
Lactose powder
Maltose Lactose Light sweet odorless

Group- P

Direction: Read and follow what is said in the activity

sheet.

Materials:Sample of polysaccharide (potato starch,

Glycogen of oyster, cellulose of pomelo)
and Activity sheet.

Examine the sample of polysaccharide and fill in the

table below base on their color, taste and odor.

C. Post-Activity

1. Reporting
It is now time for the reporters to discuss your
observations. Let’s have first the reporter of Group-M,
next to the reporter of Group-M is the reporter of
Group-D and lastly the reporter of Group-P. You have
5 minutes to report your observation.

2. Discussion

The three classifications of carbohydrates are

a. What are the three classifications of monosaccharide, disaccharide and polysaccharide.
carbohydrates?

The difference among these carbohydrates is that

What is the difference among monosaccharide, monosaccharide has only one sugar unit, disaccharide
disaccharide and polysaccharide? is consisting of two sugar units and polysaccharide is
compose of two or more sugar units.

The forms of monosaccharide are glucose, galactose

Based on your activity, what are the forms of and fructose. The forms of disaccharide are maltose,
monosaccharide? Disaccharide? And lactose and sucrose. The forms of polysaccharide are
Polysaccharide? cellulose, glycogen and starch.
 b. For you to understand well our topic I have here a
video which is also related to what we have been
discussed.

(Video- understanding the carbohydrates)

The video is all about carbohydrates.
“What is the video all about?”

3. Application
Create your own graphic organizer about the three
classifications of carbohydrates including its form.

4. Generalization
What are the three types of carbohydrates? The three types of carbohydrates are monosaccharide,
disaccharide and polysaccharide.

What are the roles of carbohydrates in the human The roles of carbohydrates in the human are it supply
body? energy, provide fuel for the Central Nervous System
and muscular system.

5. Valuing
Are carbohydrates is very important? Why? Yes,becausecarbohydrates are our main source of
energy and provide the ideal fuel (glucose) for our
body to function optimally, as well as many essential
vitamins and minerals. They are also the only form of
energy used by the brain.
