III. Procedure
A. Engagement
Picture Analysis:
 Why are there so many different kinds of fish?
 What do you think will happen if there are only five species of fish that you see in
the market?

B. Exploration
The students will have a “Think – Pair – Share”
1. Discuss with a partner:
2. Take a look at this diagram of a food chain:

a. What does a plant do?

b. Which animal feeds directly on the plant?
c. Which animal feeds on the insect?
d. Which animal feeds on the mouse?
3. Let us say that in the area where the plant lives, the supply of sunlight had been cut
off and the plant could not adapt to this change. What would happen? Think about it.
4. Cite five things that are probable to happen if the plant became extinct.
5. What simple conclusion can you formulate about the impact of species extinction to
other species?
6. Share your findings in class.

C. Explanation
Guide Question:

Bixby Knolls Preparatory Academy | San Antonio, Quezon

BKPA-ACAD-4001 rev. 02
 1. Apart from food, how important are air and space in human-made or artificial
habitats of organisms?
2. What will happen to organisms if their population exceeds the carrying capacity of a
certain ecosystem?
3. What causes an ecosystem to collapse?

D. Elaboration
The students will be group into three. They have to prepare presentations that explain
the importance of biodiversity.

Differentiated Tasks Area of Differentiation

Group 1: Role Play Content
Group 2: Jingle Content
Group 3: Poem Content

IV. Evaluation
Directions: Read and analyze the statement below. Write TRUE if the statement is true and
FALSE if not.
1. All species on Earth have already been discovered and identified.
2. Earth has more species than it needs.
3. Creating parks and zoos is the best way to preserve biodiversity.
4. More than one half of the world’s species live in tropical forests.
5. Coral reefs are as rich in biodiversity as tropical forests.
6. Two major causes of biodiversity loss are population growth and the increasing
consumption of natural resources.
7. All habitats have the same number of species.
8. The biological resources of developing countries are a possible source of income.
9. Many species become extinct without ever being identified.
10. The loss of forest, wetlands, and other habitats contributes to loss of biodiversity.
