Context of the lesson
This lesson is the second lesson in Unit 2: ecosystem How do living things get energy?
Teaching goal
Students will be able to compare between the producer and the consumer.
Learning objectives
Students will be able to:
Review the basic elements of the ecosystem.
Recognize the producer and the consumer by the experiment.
Assumptions about prior learning
Students already know:
Meaning of the ecosystem.
Living things and the nonliving things examples.
The interaction that happened between the living and the non-living things.
Anticipated problems and possible solutions
o Some students will find difficulties to know the different between the producer and the
consumer so teacher will provide pictures and use the students book to show them

Target language
Producer
Consumer
Yeast
Teacher language
Producer: is an organism, either a green plant
or bacterium, which is part of the first level of
a food chain.
A consumer in science refers to an organism,
typically an animal that feeds on other
animals or plants. The consumer is part of the
food chain and is studied in the science field
known as ecology.

Activities
Teacher will show them a
picture of an ecosystem to
understand the producer and
the consumer.

After teacher
present the picture,
she will ask them:
Give me an
example of a living
thing from the
picture.
She will let them
to write the names of
the living things on
the board.
Then she will
ask them to think
from were thing
living things get the
energy to grow by
looking to the
picture.
Student
Students will answer
teacher question.
Students will understand
that some living things
can produce their food
by them self like the
plants and we call them
producers.
Some living things cant
produce their own food
and they depend on
other sources like
animals and we call them
consumers.
Evaluate
Teacher will give them a work sheet to summary and evaluate their understanding
about producer and consumer.
Reflection:
For my second lesson, it was good but I thought that it should be better. The
first problem that face me was students attention, there are some students
how didnt focus with me. So I will search about some teaching strategy to
keep students attention on class. The second problem was the students
behavior, while I am teaching I note one students playing at the back with a
paper and I toke the paper from them and keep explaining. I think it was a
good strategy because this student stop playing and they focus with the
lesson.
My MCT said that the experiment miss the instructional sheet which include
questions to guide students and support them to think critically about the
experiment. Also the experiment was focusing on the living things features
while it should focus more in the producer and consumer. So the lesson plan
should be an alignment and sequence. For the next lesson I will do my best to
have a sequence lesson which achieve the lesson objective clearly. Also, I
wait for students to understand the concept even if it take the whale class
time, by giving them more examples or activities to support their grasp.
Why do the yeast organisms "wake up" when you put them into a
dough mixture? Like other living organisms, they need food and water.
So by putting them in a moist environment with nutrients (such as
sugar), they become "active."

animals and their habitat.
Teacher (What will the teacher do/say etcetera)
Teacher will show Students how to do a triangle
diorama for their favorite animal and they will
follow her instruction step by step:
You start with squares (any size will do) and
fold them on the diagonals.
Then cut on any diagonal just to the center
point.
Overlap the two triangles adjacent to the cut
and glue them together.
Now you have a three -dimensional figure that
will stand on its own.
Write and design depending on your favorite
animal and their habitat.
After all the students finish, they will present
their work to their peers.

sheet.
Reflection:
Diorama was a nice idea as a first lesson for me with the students to be more
close to them. They enjoyed doing their own diorama but we met a problem
that there are some students who didnt paring their materials or pictures. So
I asked students to share their materials and draw their favorite animal if
they didnt paring the picture. Also to keep them safe while they used the
scissors I ask the monitor teacher and the assistant teacher to help me by
looking at some groups.
There are some points that I should improve in my class, firstly the class
management. I should remind students about the classroom rules before we
start the lesson and motivate students by having a point chart or gifts. Also,
Its very important to balance the focus on all students to keep their attention
with the teacher and avoid any misbehavior. For the next class I will change
some students places because they were noisy by taking and playing with
the materials. My MST advised me to repeat the instruction more than twice
and dont move to the next step until I am sure that all students in the right
track, because that west class time and cause losing students attention. Also
she likes the triangle diorama because it breaks class routine.

Reflection:
Today class was better than the last class because students interest and
enjoy their science class time. They love the activities that were in the lesson.
So I think that I achieved my personal focused which is let students enjoy
their science by the crafts work.
My MST tells me that I should give students the instructions before I give
them the materials because they were playing with the materials rather than
hearing the instructions. Also while I am using the PowerPoint I can put the
instructions in the PowerPoint slide to not forget any instruction. But she like
that I was well prepared and students was engaged and paying attention with
me. For the next class, I will prepare the instructions and the lesson steps to
be more organized.

Context of the lesson
This lesson is to complete the second lesson: How do living things get energy? In Unit 2:
ecosystem.
Teaching goal
Students will be able to recognize the Decomposers.
Learning objectives
Target language
Decomposer
Teacher language
Decomposers are organisms that break down dead
or decaying organisms, and in doing so, they carry
out the natural process of decomposition. Like
herbivores and predators, decomposers are
heterotrophic, meaning that they use organic
substrates to get their energy, carbon and nutrients
for growth and development.

Teacher will let them solve the questions in their book page 152 and 153 to evaluate their
understanding.
Reflection:
This lesson was better than the last one because I think that my activities
were sequenced and students learnt and understand more. Showing students
picture with tree and leaves falling from the tree were a good example to let
them think about what happen after it die. Also the open ended questions
help to scaffold the information very well, because students were thinking
and answering a lot of answers. After they sow the video they have an
understanding of the term decomposers and examples of it. In order to let
them understand that producers, consumers and decomposers are very
important and connected to each other in our ecosystem I let them to
imagine what could happened if there is no decomposers. There posters were
reflecting their understanding of the role of the decomposers, producers and
consumers. Some of the expectation was that animals and plants will die and
it will stay at the ground causing other die by the diseases.
Related to my MST feedback, she like the activity of predicting and the
worksheet, because all it was reviewing the previous lessons and checking
students understanding of the new lesson. So it was connecting and building
each other. But for the next time I will be focus in the hyper active students
how were king moving between the groups causing misbehavior problems. So
I will do more active activity or doing more likely activities to the hyper active
students to keep them busy at the class.
