   Performance Standard       The learner will be able to:
                                 1. Construct a 3D model of a
                              plant/animal/ bacterial cell using recyclable materials
                                 2. Construct a cell membrane model from indigenous materials
                               The learners will become the guardian of life and shows responsibilities upon taking care of God’s creation.
   Formation Standard
(PVMSCV/ Social Teaching)
 Enduring Understanding        Understand the structure and function of subcellular components and their interactions provide essential cellular processes.
   Essential Questions         How does cellular structure impact the function of life?
                               In the long run and in their own, the learner independently uses his/her learning to use recyclable materials in making useful
      Transfer Goal            products, create an argumentative speech regarding the moral issues on cell experimentation and become steward of God’s life
                               creations.
