a.Reviewing the previous lesson
or Presenting the New Lesson
b.Establishing a purpose of the
lesson
c.Presenting examples
/instances of the new lesson
d. Discussing new concepts and
practicing new skills #1
Pictures of organisms are to be presented to the class. Student
will guess the name of the organism in the picture and the
location where each one is associated.
Nowadays, can we still see an eagle soaring up in the sky,
pawikan swimming in the sea?
Did their population increase or decrease?
What could have caused the decrease in their number?
Photo Quiz: The words in the box are some of the causes of
species extinction. Look at the pictures below and identify
which cause of extinction matches each group of pictures.
Taking Animals for Profit Introduction of species Hunting and
Trapping Destruction of habitat Overharvesting Pollution

Activity 1.The class will be divided into 5 groups. Each
group will be given an environmental problem in the
community. (Refer to worksheet 1). Analyze the problem.

situation.
Let the students make a creative presentation for 3
minutes on a certain task assigned to their group.
Group 1-Poem Recitation
Group 2- Song Composition
Group 3- Role Play
Group 4- Poster Slogan Making
Group 5 – Mock TV Show
Activity 2 (Six Thinking Hat Strategy). Divide the class into
groups of 6. Ask the students to read the poem “SAVE US
FROM HARM.” Each group will be given a colored hat.
The color of the hat suggests their specific tasks as
follows:
White hat- Wear your white hat and give the facts and
information’s given about the species
mentioned in the poem.
Green hat- Put on your green hat and enumerate
interesting features of Mt. Malindang.
Yellow hat –Take your yellow hat and put it on.
Enumerate the benefits that we can
get from the various species found in Mt.
Malindang.
Black hat – Wear your black hat and predict the result of
man’s activities that have
destroyed the natural resources in Mt.
Malindang.
Red hat – Put on your red hat and put yourself on the
shoes of the wild animals.
What would you feel if Mt. Malindang is
devoid of its cover?
Blue hat – Wear your blue hat and discuss possible
solutions to the present
problems of Mt. Malindang particularly on
wildlife extinction.
The teacher will prepare rubrics for the presentation of the
outputs of the students.
species have been valuable to your life? Why do you
consider them valuable? (Refer to worksheet 2)
What are the causes of the extinction of wildlife?
How are we going to prevent extinction of species?
i.Evaluating learning
Using the fishbone diagram, Identify the major factors that
contribute to the continuous decrease of biodiversity in the
community.

Biodiversity
Loss

1. In your own little way, how can you help in

preventing biodiversity loss in your community?
2. Why is biodiversity should be everyone’s concern?
3. The United Nations General Assembly declared
2010 as the International Year of Biodiversity. It
aims to promote conservation of biologically
diverse ecosystems for sustainable development.
How can a student like you participate in such
endeavors of the United Nations?

j. Additional activities for
application/remediation
Let students perform Activity 4 on the Learners module
pages 60-68. Each group will be assigned a specific task
to be performed.
Group 1 - brochure making
Group 2- Pop -up making
Group 3- big book making
Group 4 and Group 5- Powerpoint Presentation
