Learning Activities -Teacher

Learning Activities - Students

Anticipatory Set: 1. The teacher will begin by asking students what they remembered about chemical bonding in the previous chapter. The teacher will then provide an activity for the students to reiterate covalent bonding.

1. Students will be sectioned off into three groups and the students will engage in a ball toss that represents “electron movement” during chemical bonding. The constant reinforcement shows a clear understand of electron exchange within compounds.

2.

6.

To activate prior knowledge and skills learned in the previous class lecture.

2.

The students will work in groups to draw structures of each of the macromolecules with the program. The students will then see from the demonstration how easy enzyme activity is with the help of a “macromolecule” (in representation of a ledge).

7.

To assess the students’ prior knowledge of compound building and to understand the concept of why students need certain macromolecules in their diet to assist with breaking down fats and oils.

3.

The students will use word processor to take notes collectively in their groups. Points of emphasis will be recorded. With this in mind, students are able to be creative and learn from one another. The students will learn critical thinking and effective writing skills.

8.

To familiarize students with the basic molecules essential to their lives everyday.

The teacher will give a demonstration of how macromolecule compounds are bonded by using Emolecule. In the second demonstration, the teacher will angle the lumber against the desk and use a ball rolling (downhill) to introduce lower activation energy levels with enzymes that are made possible with the help of macromolecules.

Presentation/Explicit Instruction: 3. The teacher will start by distinguishing each macromolecule one at a time. The teacher will elaborate on each molecule and its function. A real-life application will be related to each macromolecule to make the material more interesting. The teacher will then move to say how macromolecules regulate enzymes within organisms, and the mechanisms will be shown.
