 We have learned that in order to have a clean
surrounding, we should know how to dispose our waste
materials properly.

When we dispose our wastes properly, we classify

the materials into biodegradable and non-
biodegradable. Biodegradable are materials that
decay and non-biodegradable are materials that do
not decay.

Disposing waste materials properly prevents us

from getting sick and makes our environment safe and
clean.

1. Agiwanas, is an industrious man. He went to his farm

every day. He always carry with him his bolo (gaman),
hoe (landok), and rake (kalaykay). He uses his rake in
gathering the rice hay and uses his bolo to remove the
weeds around his farm.

2. Lumnay went to the wedding of her cousin, Galliyak.

She made herself beautiful by wearing bongol on her
neck, sinanbilitan on her head, lubay on her ears and

 A Detailed Lesson Plan in Science
Grade IV
I. Objectives: At the end of the discussion and varied activities, the pupils will be able to:
a. Identify and classify biodegradable from non-biodegradable materials basing on their
properties.
b. Draw an example of a biodegradable and non-biodegradable material.
c. Demonstrate proper disposal of waste according to properties.
II. Subject matter: Identifying biodegradable from non-biodegradable materials.
Content Standard: Grouping different materials based on their properties
Learning Standards: Recognize and practice proper handling of products
Learning competency: Demonstrate proper disposal of waste according to the properties of its
materials;
Code: S4MT-Ic-d-3
Community Competency
Identify and classify waste materials according to its properties in the community.

References: K-12 Curriculum Guide (Science S4MT-Ic-d-3)

Materials: ICT materials
Pictures or real objects of biodegradable and non-biodegradable materials
Teacher’s Activity Pupils’ Activity

III. Procedure
A. Preparation
1. Review

Is the community clean? No

Do you want to live in a place like this? Why? No because it is so dirty

11
 What are the things that you can see on the
picture? Plastic, cartoon, cellophane, decaying
materials
Do these decaying materials good for our health?
Why? No, because decaying materials can cause
sickness to us.
2. Motivation

Let the pupils classify the materials presented if it

is biodegradable or non-biodegradable.
Biodegradable Non -biodegradable

B. Presentation

Check activity if correct.

What the things that you classified under bio-

degradable?

How about non-biodegradable?

12
C. Discussion

Basing from the materials classifies, what does Biodegradable are materials that can be
biodegradable mean? broken down into tiny pieces or can decay.

Kindly give examples.

How about non-biodegradable materials?

Non-biodegradable are materials that will not
decay and can also be reused.
Give examples.

Should we mix the biodegradable materials and

non-biodegradable materials? Why?

Do we need to take good care of our

environment? Why?
** Answer varies
What are the things that we should remember
when we are outside our room?

Instruction:
** Each pupil will look for a pair.
**One will get biodegradable material and the
other will get a non-biodegradable material.
** Let pupils go out and look for biodegradable
and non-biodegradable materials.
** Each pair will present to the class what they Each pair will present their material
got outside.

D. Application

Instruction: The class be grouped into two. Each

group will have a representative to answer each
question.

Mechanics for the activity: Choose your score

1. Each group will have a representative.
2. The representative will answer a question.
3. If he answered the question, he will choose a
