Preface

You and Your

Surroundings

UNIT1

This unit is about living things – humans, animals,

and plants – and their characteristics. It tackles

about the basic needs of living things that require

them to depend on other organisms and nonliving

components of the environment.

Living things of the same kind have their own unique

features, but still they share certain similarities with

all organisms – they need nourishment, they move,

grow, and reproduce.

Humans live because plants and animals provide

them with what they need. And because of this,

humans should be responsible enough in taking

care of the available resources.

In this unit, each lesson is a progression of topics

to make the pupils learn and discover, appreciate,

and apply the concepts they learn to everyday life.

Read to the class the Unit 1 opener.

CHAPTER 1 • Living Things and Nonliving Things 5

Learning Instruction

Engagement

1 Elicit the meaning of living and nonliving things from the pupils.

2 Present the question in Explore! on page 2 of the textbook. Have

the pupils write their answers on the board or on a sheet of Manila

paper. Go back to this list each time you are done discussing one

characteristic of living things. Encircle key words and let the class

read aloud these words.

Exploration

3 Divide the class into groups having four to five pupils each and let

every group perform Science at Work on pages 10 and 11.

4 Provide time for each group to check the seeds and draw their

observations.

5 After a week, have a representative from each group to present in

class. Talk about the needs of the plant for its growth.

Explanation

6 Present to the class the pet bird in a cage. Guide the pupils to

describe a bird as a living thing. Put some food pellets and water for

the bird to take. Have the pupils tell what the bird does.

Ask: Suppose, we do not provide food and water to this bird for

several days. What would happen to it?

7 Show a photo of a child having a healthy meal. Have volunteers

describe what is shown in the picture.

8 Discuss that living things need food to stay alive. Emphasize that

food provides the nutrients that living things need to function or work

well. Unlock the word nutrient. (It is the material in food that gives

living things energy, strength, and capability to grow and function.)

9 Say: Nutrients cannot reach different parts of the body without water.

This is why living things cannot live by having food alone. We have

to drink 8 to 10 glasses of water a day.

10 Bring the class outside the classroom, preferably to the school

garden. Have the pupils do some breathing exercises. Ask them how

they feel after inhaling and exhaling fresh air. Then have them hold

their breath for a little while. Lead them to appreciate the importance

of air to living things.

CHAPTER 4 • lants around You

Learning Instructions

Engagement1 Bring the class to the school garden or to a nearby park to observe

some plants.2 Have them answer the question in Explore! on page 138 of the

textbook. Have them prepare a list of plant characteristics based on

what they have observed from their short visit to the school garden

or park.Exploration3 Organize the students into four to five groups. Have each group do

the Science at Work activity on page 144 of the textbook.

4 Give each group enough time to observe the growth of the bean

seeds each day for five days. Have them fill out the table at the end

of the activity.Explanation5 Organize the students into five groups. Assign to each group one of

the following characteristics to be drawn on a sheet of cartolina.

Group 1: Plants need soil, water, air, sunlight, and food.

Group 2: Plants make new plants.Group 3: Plants grow.Group 4: Plants move by themselves.Group 5: Plants react to the changes in their surroundings.

6 Have each group present their outputs to the class. Discuss their

outputs.7 Use the presentation of each group as a springboard for a discussion

on the characteristics of plants.(a) In simple terms, discuss photosynthesis. Explain how plants give

out oxygen and take in carbon dioxide in the process. Unlock

oxygen and carbon dioxide by describing these words as “clean

gas needed by people and animals” and “dirty gas given off by

humans and animals,” respectively. Discuss the information in

Science Bank on page 138 of the textbook.(b) From a previous activity, recall how mongo seeds developed

into plants. Explain that not all plants develop from seeds. Show

a katakataka plant (you may show the picture of a katakataka

on page 140 of the textbook). Explain that leaf or stem cuttings

from some plants can be planted to become new plants.

PUS 2 TM_Chapter 4_MSE_Rev3_Trish_06282017.indd 87

Engagement describes the teacher’s role in capturing the students’ interest. This includes questions and activities designed to assess students’ prior knowledge and to awaken curiosity.

Exploration helps the teacher facilitate the investigation by providing materials, guiding students’ focus, and asking questions to ensure understanding of the lesson.

Explanation provides opportunities for the teacher to directly introduce a concept, process, or skill, and for the students to demonstrate their understanding of the said concept, process, or skill.

Elaboration allows the teacher to challenge and extend students’ conceptual understanding and skills. It provides learning opportunities for students to apply their knowledge and to gain a deeper understanding of the lesson.

Evaluation enables the teacher to diagnose students’ progress toward achieving the learning goals.

88 UNIT 1 • You and Your Surroundings

(c) Explain some indications of growth in plants, such as seed sprouting, emergence of young leaves, increase in height, bearing of flowers and fruits, etc.

(d) Have the pupils study the pictures on page 141 of the textbook. Explain that when a plant grows, its parts move downward (roots), upward (stem), or sideward (leaves and stems). Unlock the words downward, upward, and sideward using gestures and body movements.

(e) Show a picture of a Venus flytrap. Have the students watch a video of the plant engulfing a fly in this link: “Venus fly trap in action”, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qF9QjIvM9nU. Process the students reactions to the video. Discuss the information in Science Bank on page 143 of the textbook. Discuss other examples cited on pages 142 to 143 of the textbook.

8 Have the students review the concept summarized in Looking Over on page 143 of the textbook.

Elaboration

9 Post pictures of the following plants on the board: bromeliad, cactus, rose, and orchid,. Explain that the plants need water and sunlight to grow. However, their water requirements vary. Bromeliad and orchid grow best in partially shaded areas. Exposure to full sunlight would dry them out. On the other hand, cactus and rose grow best under full sunlight. Cactus has the ability to store water in its stems and can survive in extremely dry and warm conditions.

10 Have the students draw and color different kinds of plants. Tell them to label their drawings with the names of the plants.

Evaluation

11 Have the students do the Enhance Your Skills exercises (A and B) on page 145 of the textbook.

12 Let the pupils name indications of plant movement. Their answers may vary but all of them should be able to identify the examples given on page 141.

Suggested Activity

Have the groups that performed the activity in Science at Work on page 144 of the textbook draw their observations on the growth of the bean seeds. Have them draw in detail the appearance of the first leaves, the diminishing size of the seed as the leaves grow, etc.

UNIT1

This unit is about living things animals, people, and plants and their characteristics. t discusses about the basic needs of living things that re uire them to depend on other living things and nonliving components of the environment.

Living things of the same kind have their own uni ue features, but they share certain similarities with all organisms they need food and water, they move on their own, grow, and reproduce.

eople live because animals and plants provide them with what they need. t is for this reason that people should take care of animals and plants, and the environment that serves as the habitat of animals and plants.

n this unit, these concepts are taken up in a progressive manner to make the students discover, learn, appreciate, and apply science concepts to everyday life.

CHAPTER 1 • Living Things and Nonliving Things 9

Exploration

3 Have the students do the Science at Work activity on pages 18 and 19 of the te tbook as homework.

4 iscuss the students answers to the uestions at the end of the activity the following day.

Explanation

5 plain the differences between living and nonliving things.6 licit the importance of fresh air to living things. iscuss Science

Bank on page 15 of the te tbook. all on students to draw the atmosphere on the board. nlock this word as defined on page 15 of the te tbook and by using the drawing on the board.

7 mphasi e that air is made up of different gases. Two of the most important gases, which are essential to life, are oxygen and carbon dioxide. plain, as illustrated on page 16 of the te tbook, how animals and people provide plants with carbon dio ide, and how o ygen from plants are taken in by animals and people.

8 nlock new words by citing familiar situations. or e ample, imagine how a balloon bursts because gas inside it comes out. You can feel the gas coming out from a small opening but you cannot see it.

9 Have the students recall the importance of water in the movement of nutrients to various parts of living things discussed in Lesson 1 .

10 ring the students outside the classroom to feel the warmth of the Sun. Ask them: hy do living things need sunlight iscuss their answers. plain that sunlight provides the heat and light that are essential to living things.

11 iscuss briefly photosynthesis, or the food making activity of plants with the help of sunlight. plain that sunlight provides some materials that plants absorb. lants combine these materials with carbon dio ide and water to make their food. As a result, plants give off o ygen, the gas that animals and people need to stay alive.

12 ecall the mongo seeds e periment in Lesson 1. licit the materials that plants need for growth. iscuss the importance of soil to plant growth.

13 Have the students read aloud the contents in Looking Over on page 19 of the te tbook.

14 iscuss the interrelationship of the concepts in Linking Together on page 21 of the te tbook.

Elaboration

1 Show a picture of a skyline with smog or that of smoke belching vehicles. Let the students narrate their e perience when there is heavy traffic and they inhale the smoke from vehicles. mphasi e that clean air is usually colorless and has no smell, while dirty air, ust like the smoke from some vehicles, is blackish and smells a bit like gasoline. plain that smoke from vehicles makes the air dirty.

irty air is not good for living things. 2 rovide a similar discussion for water, using the analogy of pristine

river water and water from a polluted creek. se pictures to facilitate the discussion. Lead the students to conclude that there are no living fish in a polluted creek because the dirty water in the creek cannot keep them alive.

3 Ask the students: hen you were younger, did you dream to be an astronaut rocess the students answers then have them look at the picture on page 24 of the te tbook. iscuss why astronauts have to wear space suit.

Evaluation

1 Let the students do the Enhance Your Skills e ercise on page 20 of the te tbook. iscuss their outputs.

2 Have the students answer the uestion in Everyday Science on page 20 of the te tbook. iscuss their answers.

3 Have the students answer Chapter Test on pages 22 23 of the te tbook. iscuss their answers.

Suggested Activity

Show again the pictures that you used for the activities in Elaboration. ocus on the interrelationships of living and nonliving things. mphasi e

that living things cannot stay alive if the nonliving things in their surroundings are dirty.
