Now, I will divide the class into two
groups.
We will have a competition game called
“Family Feud”.
(Learners will perform the game.)
(See questions and mechanics of the
game on PPT presentation)
How was the game class? Learner 1: It is very challenging, Sir! It
helps us to sharpen our knowledge and
also develop the teamwork.

That’s right! We need an appropriate
tool. That will be our topic today.
Today we are going to tackle about

B. EXPLORE
I will now divide you into two groups.
Each group will receive tool cards and task
cards.

John P. Thompson, who developed the
initial concept around 1932. Phillips
redesigned it to improve industrial
assembly, leading to its widespread use.
D. ELABORATE
Now let us apply what you learned.
I will give you a real-life ICT situation.
Criterion 2,
(scenario) You need to check if a LAN
cable is working. What tool will you use? Criterion 3
Criterion 5
Learner: LAN tester, Sir.
Why is it the correct tool?
Learner: Because it checks if the
cable has connection.
Another scenario, you are asked to open a
computer system unit because the cover is
loose.
What hand tool will you use?
Very Good! Today, you learned that each Learner: Phillips-Head
ICT task requires the correct hand tool. Screwdriver, Sir!
Choosing the right tool means working
safely, efficiently, and responsibly.
Class, why is it important to select the
correct tool?

Using the right tool also shows
responsibility, discipline, and respect for
equipment—important values not only in
ICT but also in real life and future work.
(connecting to objective):
Today, you were able to identify common
ICT hand tools, explain their functions,
and select the appropriate tool based on a
given task. That means you have achieved
our lesson objectives.
(reflection question)
If you were asked to repair a computer or
LAN cable at home, what will you
remember first?
Learners: Use the correct tool.
Excellent. Always remember:
Right tool + Right task = Safe and quality
work.
