1. Activity
 Before we start our lesson, I like you
to group yourselves into two groups. I have
here a box, I’ve placed strips of papers with
words from the benefits derived from trees.
What are you going to do, each group
members will take turns running to the box
and take one strip of words from the box
and return to the group. This will continue
until the group has all the strips of words for
the paragraph. The group will then gathers
in a circle and put the paragraph together on
the floor. The first group to get the
paragraph in the correct order will win and
will read the paragraph aloud. The group
members of the winner will receive a star.

be able to arranged the paragraph
correctly when we go on to our

3. Abstract
Now we proceed to our lesson. Our topic
today is all about importance of planting and
propagating trees and fruit-bearing trees.
 Planting and propagating trees and  Yes ma’am.
fruit-bearing trees is a source of
livelihood for the Filipino families,
right?
 Nowadays, many people engage in this
as a source of additional income for
their daily needs. It is important,
however, to first learn the benefits
derived from planting and propagating
 trees and fruit-bearing trees to families
and community.
 What is propagation?  Plant propagation is the process of
reproducing or creating a new plant or
seedling.
 Alright, that’s correct. It is important
part of gardening, whether outdoors or
indoors. Plants are living things that
grow either through their roots, stems
and leaves of their flowers, fruits and
seeds. It is a method of growing new
plants from seed or from parts of
existing plants.

 There are more other benefits derived
from trees to maintain healthy

 Trees are very much needed by the house and, along the streets and
people in these times of climate surroundings

there are no shades to keep us

 Have you seen big roots that  Yes ma’am

soil, preventing it from eroding

strain the dirt and cleanse the
water as it passes through the
roots.  The root system promotes soil stability.
 This means that the soil held by the
roots remain there and does not
erode.  They serve as valuable wildlife habitats.
