PROCEDURE
A. PRE-ACTIVITY
 Preliminaries
Prayer May I request everyone, to please
stand for a prayer.
(The students will pray together with
 Constantino, kindly lead the prayer. teacher.)
Greetings Good afternoon, class. Good afternoon, Ma’am.

Before you take your seats, please

pick up a piece of paper under your
chair. (Students will pick up pieces of paper
under their chair.)

Okay, you may now take your

seats.

How are you today? We are fine, Ma’am.

That’s good to hear.

Before we begin our lesson for

today, let me introduce myself first.
My name is Ma’am Stephany and I
will be your science teacher for
today.

Are you ready and excited to learn

a new topic for today, class? Yes, Ma’am.
Checking of Attendance Alright! But before that, let us
check your attendance first. May I
know who are absent for today? (The learners will mention the names of
their classmates who are not present.)

Okay, say present if I call your

name. (Students will say present if I call their
name.)
Classroom Rules Before we start our lesson for
today, please avoid unnecessary
noise, be attentive, and raise your
hand if you want to answer or if
you have concerns.

Is that clear, class? Yes, Ma’am.

Very good!
B. REVIEW What was our lesson last meeting?

Anyone from the class? Last meeting, we have discussed about the
latitude and longitude in locating places
on Earth.

Very good! We made use of the

latitude and longitude in locating
places on Earth.

So now, what is the relationship

between the latitude of a place and
the climate it experiences? Anyone?
 The closer the latitude is to the equator,
the warmer the climate. The closer it is to
the poles, the colder.
Excellent! Yes, and it is clear that
there is a relationship between
latitude of a place and the climate it
experiences.

Are there any clarifications or

questions in our past lesson?
No, Ma’am.
Alright! It seems that everyone
already remembered the lesson that
we have discussed last meeting.
C. MOTIVATION At this point of time, we will be
having a short game.

In your Araling Panlipunan class,

you already discussed about
“LIKAS NA YAMAN”.
What is “LIKAS NA YAMAN”
It is a thing that can we get from nature
class?
and only nature can produce it.

Yes, so I have here some pictures

and I want you to observe it.

The picture is all about the natural

resources.
What is the picture all about?

The resources that were used to make this

 Yes, so what resources were used to product are precious stones, vegetables,
make this product? seafood, and converted energy.

Very good! From different Earth resources.

And where do you think these
resources come from?

Yes, and that is our topic for today.

The Earth’s Resources and ways on
how to sustain Earth’s resources.
D. PRESENTATION So, class, before we start our lesson
for today let us first know what we
are achieving for, for today’s
lesson. So kindly read our Specific

Good job, everyone!
F. ANALYSIS Planet Earth is made up of natural
resources such as animals, plants,
air, soil, rocks, water, minerals,
crude oil, and other fossil fuels.
These things are called natural
resources because they are gathered
from nature-hence they are not
made by people.

So, based on your presentation…

1. What made of those things (Students possible answer.)

that is present in the activity Those things are made of different Earth’s
of group 1? natural resources.

Yes, we have different Earth’s

resources such as Land and Soil
Resources where in it is one of the
important natural resources needed
for the survival of organisms on
earth.

And Land and Soil Resources Different industry. New and improved
where use in? technologies are being developed and
used to sustain the agricultural land for
humanity. Non-agricultural lands are
being converted into residential and
commercial areas.

Very well said.

We also have Water Resources
where in 71% of the Earth’s surface
is covered with water mostly
oceans but also rivers, lakes, and
other fresh water.
And since earth is mostly covered A great variety of life forms on it and a
with water, there is? small percentage of this vast water is
 available for human consumption. Where
in humans get freshwater from rivers,
lakes, and groundwater.
Very good!
And we also have Mineral
Resources where in minerals are
mined from Earth. They are pure
inorganic substances that occur
naturally in the earth’s crust.
Mineral resources are non-
renewable and include metals (e.g.
iron, copper, and aluminum), and
non-metals (e.g. salt, gypsum, clay,
sand, phosphates.) They constitute
the vital raw materials for many
basic industries and are a major
resource for development.

Is it clear, class? Yes, Ma’am.

Okay, our Earth’s natural resources

can be classified into two,
renewable and non-renewable.

Based again on your presentation,

2. In what way does renewable

resource different from non-
renewable resource? Renewable resources can be regenerated
at the same rate or even faster as they are
being used. Example of renewable
resources are sunlight, water, air, biomass,
and geothermal are renewable resources
because they cannot be used up.
They are replenished over relatively short
periods of time by natural processes.
While fossil fuels were formed within the
Earth from dead plants and animals over
millions of years. Coil, oil, and natural gas
are fossil fuels. They are the major types
of non-renewable resources because once
they are used up, they cannot be replaced.
This is due to the long time it takes for
them to be replenished.

Very good!
And lastly, why is it important to
know the proper ways on how to
sustain Earth’s resources?
We need to conserve natural resources
because these natural resources are the
sources of our daily needs and if these
 resources are abused and harmed, we will
have short quantity of sources for food
and living.
You did a great job!
G. ABSTRACTION As a whole, is it necessary to (Students possible answer.)
sustain Earth’s resources? Why? Yes, all resources used by humans,
including fuels, metals, and building
materials, come from Earth. Many of
these resources are not in endless supply.
It has taken many thousands and millions
of years to develop and accumulate these
resources.
To conserve natural resources is to protect
or use them wisely without wasting them
or using them up completely.
Conserving natural resources can make
them last and be available for future
generations. This is what sustainability of
natural resources means. Each one of us
should think about how to make things
sustainable.

What are the most natural important

resources for life? The most important natural resources for
life is the air we breathe. Without this, we
cannot exist.

Good job!
H. APPLICATION Now, what learning area you can
apply to our lesson for today? In Araling Panlipunan because it tackles
“likas na yaman”.

Yes. So, as a student of Mount

Carmel College, in what way you
can show appreciation towards the
importance of sustaining the
concept of Earth’s resources to real
life situation? As a student of Mount Carmel College, I
can show my appreciation towards the
importance of sustaining the concept of
Earth’s resources to real life situation by
respecting laws governing the seas and
use of natural resources.

Very good!
So, do you have any questions or
clarifications? None, Ma’am.
V. EVALUATION Okay, since there are no questions
