Prayer
(Teacher will ask one students to lead the prayer)
Dear Lord, thank you for this another
day that you have given to us. Forgive
us for our sin. Thank you for all the

today
B. REVIEW
Class can you still remember our lesson

yesterday?
Yes Teacher!
Now, to test if you really remember. I have

something to show you. I have here pictures I
want you to identify what is this and its stages.
Do you understand? Yes Teacher!
( The teacher shows a picture of the life cycle of a

butterfly)
(The teacher will ask each stages of the life cycle)
“So what life cycle is that?”

“Life cycle of a butterfly” teacher!
“Very Good!
C. MAIN LESSON
1. MOTIVATION
“Okay class, have you seen a seed?”

Yes Teacher!
What kind of a seed do you know? Can you give

me examples?
(Teacher will call one by one to give examples)
(Students will raise their hands to

answer)
“Possible answers”
∙Seed of peanut
.Corn
.Cotton seed
.Tea seed
.ETC.
“Okay, Very Good! Everyone is correct!
(Teacher will post a picture of a seed)
“Here are some examples of seeds”

“What do you notice about those seeds?”
(Students will respond)

Yes, Very Good!
ACTIVITY
“Now, I have a short story and I want you to listen

carefully and you will answer few questions later.”
(The teacher will present “ The Tiny Seed” by Eric

Carle via video presentation)
“Did you enjoy the story?”

Yes Teacher!
Are you ready to answer some questions?
“Yes Ma’am!
Discussion Questions:
-Who is the main character in the story?
(one student will stand and answer)

“The Tiny Seed” Teacher!
Very Good!
-What blows the seeds?
(one student will answer)
“The Air” Teacher!

Excellent!
-Did they fell on the ground during autumn?
“No, Teacher”!
-Why do you think Tiny Seed is the last one who
grew?
(any idea will come up from the

respond of the students)
“Class, do you have an idea what our lesson will
be?”
(one student will answer)
“About the SEED teacher!”

“That’s right!
“Today, we are going to learn the different parts of

a SEED.”
“Here’s a drawing of a seed. You are going to

identify what are its parts as we discuss our
lesson.”
PARTS OF A SEED
∙ EMBRYO / RADICLE – is a part of a seed that
grows into a new plant.
•Hypocotyl – its lower end, forms the first

root of the seedling.
•Epicotyl – its upper end, becomes the first

stem.
“Anyone can put a label on where the Hypocotyl

is?” (Selected students will go in front and
label out the Hypocotyl and the Epicotyl
in the illustration)
“How about the Epicotyl?”
•Cotyledons – serve for the digestion and

storage of food.
“Anyone who can put label on cotyledons?”

(Students will raise their hands and the
selected one will go in front)
∙ ENDOSPERM – is the food- storage tissue

which is digested and absorbed by the cotyledons.
“Don’t be confused between cotyledons and

endosperm. Cotyledons serve for digestion while
Endosperm is the food- storage which is digested
and absorbed by the cotyledons.”
Do you understand?
Yes Teacher!
“Another part of the seed is the seed coat”
“Can anyone please read what seed coat is and

put a label on it in the illustration?”
(one student will do)

∙ SEED COAT – it helps protect the embryo.
“Okay, thank you. So you see, the SEED COAT is

the outer part of a seed.”
“A seed only develops its parts only when it

undergoes a process called SEED
GERMINATION.”
(The teacher will post the definition of

GERMINATION)
(She will let the students read it aloud)
“GERMINATION is a process by which

a plant grows from a seed.”
“GERMINATION is a process by which a plant
grows from a seed.”
“There are several factors that influence

germination. First is the seed it should be carefully
chosen to make sure it is germinating. Then the
soil and temperature must be favorable.”
“I have here a short video clip for you to see how a

seed develops into a plant. I want you to observe
very carefully how a seed turns into a plant.”
(The teacher will play the video and do the

discussion while the video is playing)
“Before germination the seed begins to absorb

water. Without water seed cannot germinate. Then
the embryo begins to grow.”
“The radicle or embryonic roots come out first.”

As you can see the HYPOCOTYL begins to grow.
The HYPOCOTYL grows longer, it begins to

straighten out.
The growing HYPOCOTYL pulls the

COTYLEDONS and EPICOTYL out of the soil.
Eventually EPICOTYLS develop into the shoot

and the leaves of a seedling.
“So that’s it. With proper nutrients you will be able

to grow your plant well.”
“Who among you here had bald hair during their

infancy? Or when you were still a baby?
(Students will raise their hands)
“Okay there are few. But try to imagine seeds are

just like a baby with no hair. As time goes by it
develops and when it properly nourished it will
grow beautiful. Just like the seed when you take
good care of it, it will grow into a beautiful plant.”
“Did you understand the lesson?
Yes Teacher!
“Are there any questions?”
None Teacher!
Very GOOD!
IV. EVALUATION
INSTRUCTIONS:
Group Activity:
I have here examples of seed germination in each jar. Identify which part of
the seed has already formed in it. Arrange it according to the stages. Write
your answers on a sheet of paper. Choose one representative to discuss
what stage of the seed is in the jar. Each stage should have one
representative.
V. ASSIGNMENT
“Answer the following in your notebook”
1. List down the factors that affect seed germination and growth”
2. Where a flowering does plants start?
3. How does the seed grow into a plant?
