a short review.

What was our lesson yesterday? Sir!

Yes, Paul! About the process of ingestion in the digestive

system.
Very good!
Now class, who wants to describe the process of ingestion
in digestive system? Sir!

Yes, Jefrey!
Ingestion is the first process that happens in
digestive system. It is the journey of taking in food or
any substance into the body through the mouth.
Very good! Why is it important to choose the right food
that we intake?
Sir!
Yes, Nicole!
Because different foods provide different types and
amounts of key nutrients need by the body for energy
Very good answer! and growth.

EXPLORE (15 Minutes)

To further understand the process of digestion, you need

to do the first activity.

Ron, please read loudly the directions for the activity 1.

Activity #1: LABEL ME TO SHARE!

Directions:
In this activity, each group will label the parts of
different organ in digestion process. Choose your
answer from word bank above the diagram then put
your answer inside the text boxes of the
corresponding parts of organs in digestion process.
Then, paste it on the board and prepare at least 2
representative reporters of each group to share your
output in the front.

Thank you Ron!

Did you get the instruction, class? Yes, sir!

I’ll give you five minutes to do this activity, you may start (The student will do the activity.)
now.

Class, have you finished? Yes, sir!

Thank you again for another wonderful presentation.

Class, let us give them MAY TAMA KA CLAP!
EXPLAIN (10 minutes)

(Teacher will facilitate the processing student’s output.)

Class, what is digestion again? Sir!

Yes, Mark Angelo! Digestion is the process that involved break down of
large food molecules into smaller molecules for easy
absorption of the cells.
Awesome!
There are two types of digestion involved in this process,
the mechanical digestion and chemical digestion.

Class, do you have an idea about the differences of

mechanical and chemical digestion? Who among you can
explain the differences? Sir!

Yes, Jezabel! Mechanical digestion is the mechanical breakdown of

food into small particles. While, Chemical digestion
is the chemical breakdown of food into small
chemical substances.
Very good! now let us discuss the process of digestion
which involved breaks down of food chemically and
mechanically using the human torso model.

Which organ that the digestion process start? Sir!

Yes, Nicole! Mouth sir!

Very Good! Chayan, please identify the mouth to the (Chayan will identify the mouth.)
human torso in front.

Awesome!
When you eat, how the mouth digests foods? Sir!

Yes, Jessabel! While the food is in the mouth, the teeth cut, crush,
and break it apart into tiny pieces while the tongue
helps mix food with saliva secreted by the salivary
glands forming into a moist ball called bolus so it
can be easily swallowed.

Awesome!
After being process in the mouth, which organ will the
bolus pass through before it reaches the stomach? Sir!

Yes, Raymond! Esophagus sir!

Nice! Lea Jane, please identify the esophagus to the

human torso in front. (Lea Jane will identify the Esophagus.)

Very Good!
How can you define esophagus? Sir!

Yes, Ivan! Esophagus is a tube that attaches the mouth to the

stomach. A series of wave-like muscle contractions
known as peristalsis push and transport foods and
liquids in small sections to the stomach.

Very Good!
After being process in the mouth and passed through to
the esophagus, where will the bolus go? Sir!

Yes, Mark! Churning to the stomach sir!

Very Good!
Rollaine, please identify the stomach to the human Torso (Rollaine will identify the stomach.)
in the front.

Nice!
What is the primary function of stomach? Sir!

Yes, Mark! The primary function of the stomach is to store food

that can hold approximately one liter of fluid and
food which turns to chyme after being acted on by
the stomach acid.
Very Good!
Chyme is a semifluid material formed from bolus that is
acted upon by the gastric juices secreted by the stomach.
The walls of the stomach have special cells that secrete
gastric juices like hydrochloric acid and pepsin
that begin the chemical breakdown of proteins.

After the food turns to chyme, where will the chyme go? Sir!

Yes, Nikki! Chyme will move to the small intestine sir!

Very good! After four hours, the stomach pushes food

into the small intestines.

Haima, please identify the small intestine to the human (Haima will identify small intestine)
torso in the front.
Very good!
Do you have an idea about the function of small
intestine? Who can define the function of small intestine?
Sir!
Yes, Ronnie!
The small intestine is an organ that breaks down
food further into substances, such as glucose, amino
acids, fatty acids. In this stage, there are three organs
Awesome! that involves in breaking down food into substances.
These organs are the liver, the pancreas and the gall
bladder which produces enzymes that help in breaking
down substances in the small intestine. These substances
are necessary for the next process in digestive system.

Now class, in your own opinion why is digestion

important? What is its significance?
Sir!
Yes, Renalyn!
Digestion is important for breaking down large food
molecules into smaller molecules, and substances,
such as glucose, amino acids, fatty acids where they
Very good! are necessary for the next process in digestive
What will happen to your digestive system if food isn’t system.
chewed properly?
Sir!
Yes, Aljen!

If food isn’t chewed properly, food may remain

undigested as it passes through your stomach to your
intestines, which can lead to an overgrowth of
bacteria in the intestines, which in turn leads to
bloating and constipation, abdominal pain, cramps
Awesome! and other digestive problems.
ELABORATE (10 minutes)

Class, we have another activity to do.
