B. Lesson Proper

1. Activity
To start our lesson, let’s have an
activity. I will group you into 4.
The classroom has four learning
areas. Each of them offers a different topic
that you will observe and examine. Write
your notes as you go on.

I will assign each group to a


designated learning area. After 3 minutes,
You will proceed to the next learning area
until you finish visiting all learning areas.

Before we do that, let us recall


the guidelines in doing an activity. What
Is the first step? Be cooperative.

That’s right. What else? Show respect to your groupmates.


Don’t disturb other groups.
Follow directions correctly.

Let us start the activity.

(Designated learning areas for the groups:)

Group 1 – Area 1
Group 2 – Area 2
Group 3 – Area 3 (The students will do the activity.)
Group 4 – Area 4

Learning Area 1: The Earth Is Warming Up

Directions:
1. Examine the picture.
2. What is the picture about?
3. Is Global warming real or not? Explain your
answer briefly.
4. Give 3 things that can contribute to
global warming.

Learning Area 2: What Happened to the Trees?


Directions:
1. Examine the pictures. What do you think
happened?
2. Cutting down trees to use the land for
something else rather than a forest is called
deforestation. Give 3 reasons why people do this.
3. What will happen if we continue
cutting down our trees?
4. What can we do to save the trees?

Learning Area 3: Where are the Animals?

Directions:
1. Examine the pictures.
2. Global warming heavily affects the lives
of animals. Some species have a great decline in
population. Some are already endangered.
Cite one reason why animals are important.
3. Give 3 things that animals can provide.

Learning Area 4: What Can We Do?

Directions:
1. Examine the pictures.
2. List down 5 ways to lessen our use of energy at home.

2. Discussion
Let us examine and hear your
observations in the activity.
Each group shall have a designated
speaker to present what they’ve observed
in a learning area.
Each group will only present their
observations in the first learning area that (The students will present their work.)
they visited.

C. Generalizaton

Is global warming real or not? Global warming is real.

Global warming and climate


change refer to an increase in
average global temperatures. Natural
events and human activities are
believed to be contributing to an
increase in average global
temperatures. This is caused
primarily by increases in
“greenhouse” gases such as Carbon
Dioxide (CO2).

Human activities contribute a


great amount in the increase of greenhouse
gases.

In order to lessen our impact on the


environment, we can do several things.

We can save our trees through


reforestation and recycling paper.

Through this, we can also help our animals


to thrive and survive in their environments.

D. Application
To understand our lesson further, let us have a
group activity.

Read the directions from the activity card. (The students will do the activity.)

Group 1:

Write a slogan about saving energies in our homes.

Group 2:

Draw 3 activities that show people taking good


care of the environment.

Group 3:
Make a short skit about a family saving energy and
taking good care of the environment.
