PRESENTATION OF THE LESSON

Our game today is related to our lesson.

Who can give me his/her idea of what
we are going to discuss for today? Student A: Digestive system ma’am!

Precisely! What is digestive system? Student B: Digestive system ma’am is

a series of connected organs whose
purpose is to break down, or digest,
Very good! Specifically, we will discuss the food we eat.
today the human digestive system.

What do you call the process of

breaking down of food?
Student C: Digestion ma’am!
Absolutely right! Very good!
There are two phases of digestion,
these are mechanical digestion and
chemical digestion.

Who can differentiate the two phase of

digestion?
Very well said! That’s right!
We will discuss the functions and uses
of each digestive organ. We will go over
each of it in order for you to understand
the digestion faster.
Student D: Mechanical digestion
ma’am starts in the mouth where food
is chewed and broken down to smaller
pieces for easier digestion.
While the chemical digestion, initially it
also starts in the mouth, this is carried
out by enzymes, molecules that speed
up chemical reactions.

Where digestion starts?

Student E: Digestion starts in the

mouth?

Student F: It is an opening and it is

composed of lips, gums, tongue and
Very well said! Very good! teeth, through which food is taken in
ma’am.
Please read student G.

Very good! What are the glands in the
mouth that produces saliva to begin the
chemical digestion of food?
That’s right!
Student G:
Mouth
The first part of the digestive system is
the mouth, the entry point of food. The
smell and sight of food, stimulates your
salivary glands to secrete fluid called
saliva consisting of water and
enzymes.

Student H: Salivary glands ma’am!

Next is the pharynx. How pharynx
related to the digestion?

Absolutely!
The chewed food is conveyed by the
tongue into the pharynx where
swallowing occurs.
Student I: It is where the food is being
conveyed by the tongue where the
swallowing occurs ma’am.

How about the epiglottis?

That’s right!
Student J: It covers the opening to the
Next digestive organ is the esophagus. air passages when swallowing ma’am.
What is esophagus?
That’s right! Very good!
Please read student L.
The esophagus conducts the bolus of
food through the thoracic cavity. Food
travels down the esophagus, through a
series of rhythmic contractions called

That’s right! Very good!
Next digestive organ is the stomach.
What is stomach?
Yes, very good!
Please read student O.
What are gastric juices?
Very good! How about chyme?
. Student P: Gastric Juices ma’am is
The next digestive organ is the small
intestine.
What is small intestine?
Precisely!
Please read student S.
It is made up of three parts:
1. Duodenum
2. Jejunum
3. Ileum
Who can differentiate the three parts?
Student K: It is the passage down
which food moves between the throat
and the stomach ma’am.
Student L:
Esophagus
The esophagus is a tube connecting
the mouth to the stomach running
through the thoracic cavity.
Student M: Peristalsis ma’am!
Student N: It is an organ resembling a
sac in which food is mixed and partially
digested.
Student O:
Stomach
The stomach is a muscular J-shaped
organ found in the abdominal cavity.
Food is temporarily stored in the
stomach.
mostly enzyme that is produced by
glands in the stomach to help digest
food.
Student Q: Chyme ma’am is a thick
liquid produced in the stomach and
made of digested food combined with
gastric juice
Student R: It is where digestion of food
and most absorption of nutrients take
place ma’am.
Student S:
Small Intestine
It is responsible for the complete
digestion of all macromolecules and
the absorption of their component.

Next is the large intestine.

And the last is the anus, what is anus?
Very good!
That’s right! Please read student Z.
Let’s move on to the accessory organs
that support the digestive system but
are not part of the digestive tract these
are the liver, gall bladder and the
pancreas. These organs secrete fluids
into the digestive tract, and are connect
by ducts.
Accessory Organs:
1. Liver
2. Gallbladder
3. Pancreas
Who can differentiate the three
accessory organs?
Student T: Duodenum is a u-shaped
organ, approximately 30 cm in length,
this area completes most of the
digestion processes, and the Jejunum
is approximately 2.5 m. long, some
digestion is completed here, its role is
absorption o nutrients while the Ileum
ma’am, is where the absorption also
occurs, it is responsible for pushing the
waste materials into the large intestine.
Student U: It extracts water and form
feces ma’am.
Student V:
Large Intestine
It forms an inverted U over the coils of
the small intestine. Its function is to
Student W: Rectum ma’am is the lower
part of the large intestine, between the
colon and the anal canal.
Student X:
Rectum
It stores the feces the waste material
that consists largely of undigested
food, digestive juices, bacteria, and
mucus until elimination
Student Y: Anus ma’am is the opening
for the release of feces.
Student Z:
Anus
The opening at the lower end of the
alimentary canal through which feces
are released.
 Student A: The liver ma’am produces
bile, a greenish-yellow pigment made
up bile pigments and bile salts, as it
breaks down old red blood cells then
the bile is secreted into a storage sac

All: none ma’am!

All: yes ma’am!

Synthesis/Generalization

To sum up everything that we have

discussed earlier, what are the things
that we learned?
Student B: We learned ma’am what is
digestion and its flow as well as the
different digestive organs that are

responsible in this process.

Application

A. I will group you into three groups. Each group will identify the organs and
put it on the right place on the illustration. Afterwards, there will be
drawlots, each representative of the group will pick one paper that is
consisting of the name of the digestive organ. According to what organ of
your group have picked, you will remove the organ on the illustration and
one representative of each group will explain, what will happen if the organ
that you’ll removed will be no longer in the digestive system.

B. Is digestion important in our lives? Why?

Assignment

Ok class, before we end our lesson for

today, as part of your assignment, I’ve
grouped you into four groups. The first row
will be the first group, the second group will
be the second row, the third row, is the
third group and last row will be the fourth
group. Each group will compose a song.
The lyrics of the song must show the
digestion of food. It’s up to you how you will
create this song, and how will you sing it as
long as the complete flow of digestion is on
the lyrics as well as the organs that are
needed in digestion.
All: None ma’am!
Any questions?
All: Yes ma’am!
Are all things settled now?

Okay. Let us pray the closing prayer,
student D, please lead the prayer.
Student D: Almighty father you
have brought us to the light of
another class may we eagerly
continue to develop in us your gift
and always make good use of them
through Christ our Lord, amen!
