EPOW pp, 128-129
Science Spectrum pp 98-99
Materials: picture of a forest
Science Concepts: Forests are hugely important for life on earth. This is because it serves
as an ecosystem, and sustains life for millions of animals, birds and animals that live in
the rivers and streams running through these forests. It also does a lot of good to the
atmosphere in climate control as well as supplying oxygen for human sustenance.
III. Procedure
A. Preparation
1. Review: Importance of the Forest
2. Review Drill about the importance of the forest
3. Science Trivia- A forest is one of the top 5 natural resources on earth
B. Developmental Activities
1. Motivation: Show the layers of the forests
a. Emergent layer topmost layer where only the tallest trees can reach and
where birds, butterflies, small monkeys and bats are found.
b. Canopy layer layer where most trees in the forest grow. Aerial plants are also
found in this layer. It is the layer that receives much sunlight. Birds, monkeys,
sloths, lizards, snakes and insects live in this layer.
c. Understory layer where there are vines and dense vegetation are found.
There is not much sunlight in this layer.
d. Forest floor dark, damp, full of dead leaves, twigs and dead plants. Little or no
winds and rains reach this place.
2. Presentation: Make an incomplete statement that the pupils will answer to identify
the problem to be solved for the day. What might happen if _____.
3. Activity/Discussion
Procedure
Using data gathered from different sources, answer the following:
a. What is deforestation?
b. Read the facts in the first column and fill up the incomplete sentences in the
next column
I KNOW THAT ...
1. Trees and plants in the forest absorb and
retain water in their roots.
2. Trees and plants in the forest hold the soil
in place.
3. The forest is the habitat to millions of
animals.
4. The forest is the source of oxygen that
supplies animals and man with air.
5. A large part of the water that circulates in
the forest ecosystem remains inside the
plants. Moisture in plants is transpired
into
the atmosphere.

WITHOUT TREES,
I THINK ...
- flashfloods will occur in lower areas

- soil erosion and even landslide may oc

-the animals will have no home and she

causing them to become endangered
extinct.
-there will not be enough oxygen for ani
and man to survive
- water cycle is disrupted

6. Forests serves as a water shed or water

source for organisms living there.
7. Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the
atmosphere in the process of
photosynthesis.
8. The forest is a source of lumber, medicine
and other needs of man

- sunlight can reach the forest floor and

dries
up rivers and bodies of water
-more carbon dioxide in the air can caus
global warming and climate change

- there would be a decrease in the sourc

of
lumber, medicine and other needs of
man.

4. Generalization
Deforestation is when humans remove or clear large areas of forest lands for nonforest use. These include clearing for farming purposes, ranching and urban use. In
these cases, trees are never re-planted. Since the industrial age, about half of
worlds original forest had been destroyed and millions of animals and living things
have been endangered.
Effects of Deforestation see table above
5. Application
Imagine a forest which had been cleared by deforestation. Draw it in your science
notebook.
6. Evaluation
Complete the following statements
1. Trees absorb water in their roots. Without trees, _____.
2. Trees release oxygen in the air to make food. Without trees, _____.
3. Trees hold the soil with their roots. Without trees, _____.
4. Trees absorb carbon dioxide in the air. Without trees, _____.
5. Forest is the home of millions of species of animals. Because of deforestation,
_____

III. Procedure
A. Preparation
1.Review: Deforestation
2. Review Drill
B. Developmental Activities
1. Motivation: Relate to the pupils the oil spill that recently happened in Cavite cause
by a pipe leak of
Petron
2. Presentation
Present to the pupils the effect of oil spill in the marine ecosystem and the
people leaving near the
ocean. Ask the pupils, what kind of pollution is oil spill? Let them state the
problem, What are the
destructive effects of all types of pollution?
3. Activity/Discussion
a. Divide yourselves into groups
b. With your group mates, gather data and share ideas about the following:

1. Definition of pollution?

c. Answers will be discussed in class
4. Generalization
Pollution is the presence of impurities on land, water and air and effects
ecological balance. Pollution is
a result of overpopulation, destructive practices of man and natural calamities.
A. Air pollution The atmosphere helps protect the Earth from the intense heat of
the sun and contains gases which allow life to exist. Making the air impure with
the addition of gases or particles either by nature or human activity destroys
the atmosphere. Things that pollute the air includes nitrogen oxides, carbon
monoxides, hydrocarbons, sulphur dioxides, CFCs (aerosol sprays, refrigerators,
air conditioners) , dust particles and organic compounds are called air
pollutants. These pollutants came from factories, vehicles, burning fossils and
household and farming chemicals. Effects: acid rain(nitrogen oxide and sulphur
dioxide) , health problems, disrupt natural cycles and processes, destruction of
ozone layer, death of plants and animals
B. Water pollution - Impurities that can affect the natural properties of water are
called water pollutants. Water pollutants: garbage, sewage, waste water,
decaying matter, particulate matter, oil spill, poisonous chemicals from
factories, pesticides, insecticides and fertilizer run-offs. Effects: death of
aquatic plants and animals. disruption of food chains, destruction of coral reefs,
health problems, destruction of ecosystems.
C. Land pollution deterioration or destruction of the earths land surfaces as a
result of mans activities and their misuse of land resources. Land pollutants:
pesticides, insecticides, fertilizers, minerals from mining activities, garbage,
chemicals from factories. Effects: health problems, destruction of animal
habitat, less fertility of soil.
5. Application
Draw a campaign poster showing the harmful effects of pollution.
6. Evaluation
Write Yes or No in your answer sheet.
1. Acid rain can help plants grow faster.
2. Improper waste disposal can cause health problems.
3. Too much carbon dioxide in the air can cause global warming.
4. Oil spilled from leaking pipes in the oceans can cause the death of marine life.
5. Biodegradable wastes in oceans and seas help sustain marine plants and
animals.
IV. Assignment
