Detailed Science Lesson Plan: Solar System

The document provides a detailed lesson plan for a 6th grade science class comparing the planets of the solar system. The lesson plan outlines the objectives to compare planet characteristics, construct models of planets, and recognize the importance of planetary knowledge. It details preparatory activities like prayer, attendance checking, and reviewing the previous lesson. The main activities include defining inner and outer planets, a planet modeling motivation activity, and a discussion comparing the 8 planets while dividing them into inner terrestrial and outer gas giant planets. Students are expected to actively participate through questions, notetaking, discussion, and a group activity.

moment to reflect on the
wonders of the world around us
and express our gratitude for
the opportunity to learn and
grow together. Before we begin
our lesson, let us join in a
moment of prayer.

Almighty God, you are the


source of life. We thank you for
all the blessings you have given

2. Unlocking of Difficulties
I have here words which we
need to know first before we
proceed to our lesson. These
are Inner Planets and Outer
Planets. Everybody read.

INNER PLANETS INNER PLANETS


The inner planets are the four The inner planets are the four
planets closer to the sun. planets closer to the sun.

How about the outer planets.


Kindly please read together.

OUTER PLANETS OUTER PLANETS


The outer planets are the four The outer planets are the four
planets farther to the sun. planets farther to the sun.

3. Motivation

I have here an activity class.


This activity is entitled What’s
Inside the box. There are eight
miniatures of the planet in the
box. I will play a music and the
student passes the box to their
classmates when the music
stops the pupil holding the box
need to pick one and tell
something about the planet
she/he picks.
(Pupils participate)
B. DEVELOPMENTAL 1. Presentation
ACTIVITIES From that activity, what do you
think is our lesson for today? Do
you have any idea, Jerylle?
I think our lesson for today is
about the planets
That is correct! Today we will
discuss about inner and the
outer planets.

But before that I will present to


you the learning objectives for
today.

At the end of lesson, 80% of the


learners are expected to:

a) compare the characteristics of


the different planets in the
Solar System;
b) construct a model of the
different planets of the Solar
System using various
materials and;
c) recognize the importance of
knowing the characteristics of
the different planets of the
Solar System.

2. Setting of Standards
"Before we proceed with our
exploration, I have here a friend
who is an astronaut, coming all
the way from NASA." And he
has some reminders for you
children during our discussion
later on.

A. Prepare your minds for


learning
B. Listen attentively, to
your teacher.
C. Ask questions, curiosity
is key
D. Note down important
facts
E. Engage in the
discussion
F. Take part in group
activity
G. Stay focused throughout
the class

Can he expect that to you


class?
Yes, teacher!
3. Discussion
Very well, you are all ready for
our discussion.

At present, there are eight


planets in the solar system.
How many planets class are
there in the Solar System?
Eight Teacher!
Very good!

Now these planets are divided


into two groups, Today, we are
going to an exciting journey
through the planets. Are you
ready class to know more about
these planets?
Yes Teacher!
Buckle up, because we're about
to take off!

First we have the inner planets


or what we call the terrestrial
planets. They are solid and are
mostly made up of rocks and
metal; they do not have rings.

Now we will be moving forward
to the Outer Planets, or what
we call the Jovian Planets.
They are called the Jovian
planet because, these planets
are gaseous and large.

Now the first Jovian Planet is


Jupiter. Salvador, kindly read.

Did you know class that Saturn


has 83 moons? Sixty-three
moons are confirmed and
named, and another 20 moons
are awaiting confirmation of
discovery and official naming by
the International Astronomical
Union (IAU).

Like Jupiter, Saturn is made


mostly of hydrogen and helium.
Saturn has the most
spectacular ring system, with
seven rings and several gaps
and divisions between them.
Yes, Teacher!
Understood class?

Very good, now let us move to


the next 2 planets and that is
Uranus and Neptune. Uranus

discover by means of a
telescope.

Now I guess you are now ready Yes, Teacher!


for your group activity. Are you
ready class?

4. Presentation of the Rubric


Today you are going to have a
group activity to check whether
you have learn anything from
our discussion. Now I will divide
you into 2 groups. Designate
who will be the leader,
secretary, and reporter.

But before we go any further, I


have here the rubric that I will

Children, here are your group
activities. I will give you only five
minutes to finish them.

Group 1:
Construct a model of the Solar
System using the provided
Styrofoam.

Group 2:
Use the Venn diagram to
compare the inner and outer
planets. The middle section
represents the characteristics of
the inner and the outer planets
have in common. A represents
the characteristics of the inner
planets that are different from
the outer planets. B represents
the characteristics of the outer
planets that are different from
the inner planets.

6. Valuing I enjoy doing the activities


How did you feel while doing teacher.
your group activities, Veron?

Oh that’s amazing Veron!

What do you think is the


importance of knowing the By learning about the inner and
characteristics of the inner and outer planets, we can see that
the outer planets? Yes Vea? not all planets are the same.
Some planets are rocky like
Earth, while others are made up
mostly of gas. This helps us
appreciate the variety and
uniqueness of different planets
in our solar system.

Very good Vea!
