DETAILED LESSON PLAN IN TECHNOLOGY AND LIVELIHOOD EDUCATION

GRADE 9 - COOKERY

I. OBJECTIVES:
At end of the lesson the students are expected to:
a. Identify the different cutting techniques for vegetables.
b. Perform the different cutting techniques for vegetables.
c. Appreciate the importance of the different cutting techniques for vegetables.

II. SUBJECT MATTER

a. Topic: Different Cutting Techniques for Vegetables
b. Concept/Content: Definition of Terms
1. BRUNOISE (FINE DICE)
Brunoise is a cutting technique in which a fruit or vegetable is cut into a fine dice. The
food item is usually first julienned, then sliced across the 'sticks' to produce small cubes.
2. CHIFFONADE (SHREADING)
Chiffonade cutting technique is used on herbs or leafy vegetables.
3. JULIENNE (MATCH STICKS)
Julienne is a cutting technique where food is cut into long thin 'matchstick' like strips.
This style of cut is commonly used as a garnish or on vegetables for stir fries.
4. SLICING
Slicing is the cutting of food into thin, relatively broad slices. It really is the first cutting
technique that we all learn when we first use a knife.
5. CRUSHING
It is a way of cutting vegetable done by pressing or squeezing it to break into small
pieces.
c. Process Skills: Listening, speaking, observing, collaborating, performing

Class, last meeting we have
discussed about spark plug and its
different parts, right? Yes ma’am (in chorus)

Now, what is spark plug? A spark plug is a device in the engine of a motor
Yes John. vehicle, which produces electric sparks to make
the petrol burn.

Very good! Now who can give one

part of a spark plug and its function? Ma’am central electrode, it is the hottest part of
Yes Mindy. the plug.

Exactly! Another answer? Yes Carlo. Ma’am Terminal. The top of the spark plug
contains a terminal to connect to the ignition
system.

Very good! Is there any question None ma’am.

about our previous topic?

2. MOTIVATION

At this point in time let’s have a game.

The game called “POP ME and
ARRANGE ME”

I will group you into two groups. Let 1 and 2 students count off
us have a traditional count.

Instruction:
1. Pop the balloon then get the
scrambled letter with picture.
2. Arrange the given letters to form a
correct word.
3. Each group will be given 3 minutes
to do the task.
4. The first group that can pop and
arrange will be given one point. Yes ma’am.
Is that clear class?
Yes ma’am.
Thank you, class did you all enjoy
the game?

3. Presentation of the Lesson

Are you familiar with those words Yes ma’am.

class?
Those words are related to our topic
for today.
And our topic for this afternoon is
All about Spark Plug Testing
Procedures.

Before we proceed with our lesson, let OBJECTIVES:

us know first our lesson objectives. At end of the lesson the students are expected to:
Everybody kindly read. a. Identify the steps in spark plug
testing;
b. Test the spark plug using ohmmeter;
c. Appreciate the importance of spark
plug testing by using ohmmeter.
4. UNLOCKING OF DIFFICULTIES

Now let us unlock first the difficult

terms in order for you to be guided.

Who can read the definition of spark

plug? Yes Randy.

SPARK PLUG – is a device for

delivering electric current from an
ignition system to the combustion
chamber of a spark-ignition engine to
ignite the compressed fuel/air mixture
by an electric spark, while containing
combustion pressure within the
engine.

Thank you, how about tester?

Yes, Alejandro.

TESTER– A tester can determine

the quality of that spark against
what it should ideally produce.
In other words, it will check if your
spark plug is working properly.

What do you think the testing device

can we use to check the spark plug? Ma’am Ohmmeter.
Yes, jake you are raising your hands.

Very good jake.

How about the Ohmmeter?

Yes, Albert.

OHMMETER - is an electrical
instrument that measures electrical
resistance.

Who among you here have already

seen an ohmmeter? Yes Skepper.
Can you describe the ohmmeter that
you have seen? Ma’am it has two leads and numbers. It looks like
a weighing scale ma’am.
Very good idea skepper.

What have you learned in our previous

activity?
Yes, Carlo you are raising your hands. Ma’am I learned that there are different steps on
how to test the spark plugs.
Good idea Carlo!
Another answer? Yes, Myco. Ma’am I have learned that in testing the spark
plug, the steps should be in order.

Excellent! Thank you myco.

Let us discuss it further.

(distributing of handouts)

Spark plugs play a major role in

starting your vehicle. Without them
your vehicle wouldn't start, so
maintaining them is very important.

Why is it spark plug plays a major role

in starting your vehicle? Yes Joshua Ma’am because as you said earlier, without the
spark plug the vehicle wouldn’t start.
Although they’re one of the tiniest
parts in your car, spark plugs are
absolutely crucial. If you didn’t have
spark plugs, you’d have no way to
speed up on the highway or even start
up your vehicle. In fact, without the
tiny spark plugs, your car would be
utterly useless.

Now, how will you test a spark plug?

Anyone knows how?

Okay. This afternoon, I will show you

on how to test the spark plug.

Now, are you ready to witness on how

to test the spark plug? Yes Ma’am.

First, you will be needing an

ohmmeter.

(Teacher show the actual ohmmeter)

This is the positive lead (red) and the

negative lead (black).

Here are the procedures on how to

 test the resistance of a spark plug.

1. Set your multi tester to “OHMS”

position.
2. Touch the test leads together. The
meter should read zero ohms.
3. Touch one-meter lead to the
terminal of the spark plug and the
other lead to engine ground.
4. Press the points of the meter leads
firmly to the metal to ensure a good
connection.
5. If the meter reading is anything
other than what you saw in step 4
range to 5000 Ohms.

(teacher demonstrate the steps on

how to test the spark plug)

Why do we need to observed the

correct step by step procedures in
testing the spark plug? Ma’am we need to observed the correct step by
Yes, Christian. step procedures in testing the spark in order for us
to test the spark plug accurately.
Very good. Another answer?
Yes Luisa Mae.
Ma’am we need to observed the correct step by
step procedures in testing the spark because it will
serve us our guide in checking the spark plug
4. ABSTRACTION correctly.

Again, what is the first step in testing

the spark plug? Yes Jett.
Set your multi tester to “OHMS” position.
Very good, how about the second
step? Yes, Loria Touch the test leads together. The meter should
read zero ohms.
Very good, how about the third step?
Yes, Claire Touch one-meter lead to the terminal of the spark
plug and the other lead to engine ground.
Very good, how about the fourth step?
Yes, Jake Press the points of the meter leads firmly to the
metal to ensure a good connection.
Very good, how about the last step?
Yes, Jhonmark. If the meter reading is anything other than what
you saw in step 4 range to 5000 ohms.
What measuring instrument is used to
test the spark plug?
Ma’am Ohmmeter
Very good. What is an Ohmmeter?

Ma’am is an electrical instrument that measures

Very good class! electrical resistance

5. APPLICATION

Let us have our last activity.

Now it’s your turn to test the spark
plug. Here are the materials needed.

I have also here an envelope; inside of

this is the procedure.
With the same group. Please get your
materials here and the envelopes.

(Teacher monitors the activity)

Time is up. (after 5 mins.) (student’s will do their task and cooperate to their
group)
Now, you already know how to test a
spark plug?
Yes ma’am.
Very good.

And why is it important to know the

proper procedures in testing a spark
plug? Ma’am it is really important to know the proper
procedures in testing a spark plug because it will
be the guide to test the spark plug correctly and

procedures? Ma’am it can affect the accurate result in testing a
spark plug.
Good idea.

If you’re friend touch the tips of the

Very good idea.

What will you do in order for you to

have an accurate test result in testing
a spark plug? Ma’am by observing the proper procedures and
apply it in testing the spark plug.
Very good. Is there any questions or
clarification?
Ma’am if the car won’t start is there a possibility
Yes, so all you have to do is to check that the spark plug is bad?
