Learning Task 2 Motivation
not wait until you are thirsty to drink.
(Show a picture of the Earth)
Class, what picture is on the board?
When you look at the earth from the outer
space, what does it look like?
The picture of the earth.
What do you think is the bluish color surface of
the earth?
Its looks like a blue marble.
Very good!
Now class, how many percent of the earths The bluish color that covers the surface of the
earth is water.
surface is covered by water?
Very good!
As you look closer, what is the other color that 75% of the earths surface is covered by water.
you see?
What does the green color represent on earths
surface?
Very good.
How many percent of earths covered with
land?
Green.
The green color represents the land.
Yes. Correct.
Is earth also covered with air?
What colors represent the air in this picture?
25% of the land.
Correct. Very good!
B. Lesson Proper
Learning Task 3 - Activity
Yes it is covered with air.
Now class, let us have picture puzzle. As you
The white color represents the air.
can see, I have here 4 envelopes. Inside it is the
picture that you are going to form.
I will divide you into two groups. Each group
will have two envelopes to form.
I will give you 5 minutes to do that.
Is it clear?
Group 1
Yes it is.
Group 2
Learning Task 4 Analysis
Where do we find the animals?
Correct. And what is environment?
All things that we see in our surrounding are all
part of the environment, including us.
Can you give examples of living things?
In the environment.
What do we call the things in the environment?
What are natural resources?
Environment is everything that makes up the
surroundings and affects the activities of living
things. It consists of all living and non living
things on earth.
How do living things benefit from the
3
environment?
Correct. Now class let us go back with these
two groups.
Human, plants and animals
Natural resources.
There are two groups of natural resources.
Can you identify the first picture in the first A natural resource is anything that people can
group?
use which comes from nature like land, water
and air.
Does sunlight give us unlimited supply of light
in a day?
Without water, air and land, living things cannot
exist, so they are dependent upon the

environment.
What about the other picture?
Very good.
Can animals be replaced? How?
Correct. This group of natural resources was
considered as renewable resources.
Sunlight.
What are renewable resources?
Yes it does.
Can you identify the pictures in the second
group?
If the first group are called renewable resources, Animals.
how about the second group?
.
Why do you think petroleum and coal is under
nonrenewable resources?
Yes. It can replace through reproduction.
Now class what are nonrenewable resources?
Renewable resources are natural resources that
can be replaced or renewed within a short
Do you think the improper use of this period of time.
nonrenewable resources good in our
environment? Why?
Petroleum and Coal.
Do you have any idea what are the uses of these
nonrenewable resources?
Non-renewable resources
So, what do we need to do to those
nonrenewable resources?
Because it takes a long period of time to replace
it.
Very good.
How do we prevent pollution?
Nonrenewable resources are natural resources
that cannot be easily replaced within a short
period of time. They can take hundreds or even
4
Very good!
million years to form.
Is it important to conserve and protect our No. Because it can cause pollution that is very
natural resources? Why?
harmful to our environment.
.
What do we need in order to survive?
Those are use for running electricity and energy.
Correct!
We need to use them wisely.
What is the effective way to conserve our
natural resources?
What are the things that can be recycling?
Very good!
We can prevent pollution by proper disposal of
these nonrenewable resources.
Learning Task 5 Abstraction
Yes it is. Because we need it to survive.
Again class what are natural resources?
We need the Earths natural resources.
Correct.
What are the two groups of natural resources?
Recycling.
Correct.
What are renewable resources?
Bottles, newspaper, magazines, boxes etc.
Very good!
Give me examples of renewable resources.
Correct.
Natural resources are the naturally occurring
materials that are used by living things.
What are nonrenewable resources?
Renewable and nonrenewable.
Correct.
What do we need to do to those nonrenewable
resources?
Renewable resources are the natural resources
that can be replenish in a short period of time.
Learning Task 6 Application
Sunlight, water, air, plants and animals.
Now class, I want you to look under your chair.
As you can see some of you have the picture. I

We need to use it wisely.
