SEMI-DETAILED LESSON PLAN IN SCIENCE 8
December 10, 2018

LEARNING COMPETENCIES: Trace the development of the Periodic Table from observation
based on similarities in properties of elements. (S8mT- IIIgh-11)
OBJECTIVES:
a. To trace the development of the Periodic Table.
b. To develop how the elements are arranged in the Periodic Table.
SUBJECT MATTER: Development of the Periodic Table
a. Reference: Science 8 ( Learner’s Module page 210) ,
https://www.lenntech.com/periodic/history/history-periodic-table.htm

b. Materials: blackboard, chalk, visual aids

PROCEDURE:
a. Routinary Activities: Prayer, greetings, checking of learning environment and checking
of attendance
b. Recap: Will someone summarize the last topic that you have tackled?
c. Motivation: The teacher will show the periodic table of elements and will explain the
following to class.
1. Do any of you have an idea of what I am showing here in front?
2. Do you think the periodic table is arranged? Why?
d. Lesson Proper:
a. Teacher-guided questions:
1. What is the Periodic Table of Elements?
2. Why is it called a Periodic Table?
3. What is an element?
4. What makes up an element?
5. What is an atom?
6. What is an atomic number?
7. To let you fully understand the development of the periodic table, we will discuss
a brief history of the development of the periodic table.
a. When the periodic table was first developed?
b. Who were the people that made a contribution in the development of the
periodic table? We will name each of them and their contributions.
8. How do they arrange the periodic table now? Using our periodic table we will
identify how the periodic table is arranged.
a. What are groups
b. What are families?
c. What are periods?
 9. How are the elements in the periodic table grouped?
a. What are blocked or series?
b. Give the names of the different blocks in the periodic table.
10. Another way of grouping elements are metals, nonmetals, and semimetals or
metalloids.
a. How are metals, nonmetals, metalloids arranged in the periodic table?
e. Synthesis:
Okay class, from what we have discussed about the development of the periodic table can
you state one basic idea from our discussion?
a. Can anyone give one contribution in the development of the periodic
table?
b. Can anyone elaborate the different basic parts of the periodic table?
f. Evaluation:
Students’ understanding of the terms, and concepts presented will be informally
assessed through a short recorded quiz.

ASSIGNMENT:

For the next topic the learners will be asked to bring the following materials on Science 8
Learner Module page 214.

QUIZ:

Answer the following questions.

1. They are the building blocks of matter.

2. In 1863 _________ an English Chemist proposed the law of octaves.

3. __________ and 4. _____________ both came up with the periodic table the showed how
elements should be grouped. Both arranged the elements in order of increasing atomic masses
while putting groups with similar properties.

5. They are the vertical columns of the periodic table.

6. They are the horizontal rows of the periodic table.

7. Give one example of a family in the periodic table.
