4. Preliminary Activities:
5. Prayer

Okay class, let us all stand and feel the presence

of the Lord,

May I request someone to please lead the prayer

Dear Lord, we thank you for this day and the

online class and give us patience, courage,
and perseverance to face whatever challenges
may come. Bless our teachers and students
with wisdom to learn from each other

Thank You Cristopher for the heartful prayer

6. Greetings
 Good morning Grade 10 Good morning, Sir

Another Day means a new lesson to be discuss

hoping that we all learn from this lesson

7. Checking of attendance

So who are absent for today

Very good! All of you are present for today’s

class

Maintain your presence everyday here today

school

2.ELICIT

Let us just take a quick review to the topic

we had discuss yesterday and we will have a
short quiz for that topic. Please bring out a ¼
sheet of paper
It is all on the evolution Sir.
What is our topic yesterday?

Write fact if the statement is true and bluff if it

Any change in an organism’s characteristics
is false
over many generations Sir.

3.ENGAGE

What comes into your minds when you

hear the word biodiversity? I want you to
fill in the table on your LM pg. 324S to
assess your prior knowledge about
biodiversity and stability

Column L we will answer it after the

lesson
 Use ½ sheet of paper to answer the table

I will give you 5 minutes to do it

K W H L

What do What do How can What I

I know? I want to I find out had
find out? what I learn?
want to
learn?

(Students answering the activity)

Are you done??

Okay everybody pass your paper

Very Good.

Now we will proceed to our topic

(After 5 minutes)
8. Explore

Biodiversity is a term that describes how

varied living things are in a specific area. It Yes Sir
changes over time as extinction occurs and
new species evolve

What does the word organism means?

Yes Phillip

So, very good Phillip

How many kind of living things can be

found in your community?
 Would you mind to identify some areas
in your community?
An organism sir is all bout what we see in our
What are the organisms found in your environment that has life
locality?

Are they important?

Why are there organisms important?

9. Explain

What is a species??

A group of genetically similar organisms that

interbreed naturally and freely to produce viable,
fertile offspring, but do not share this behavior
and outcome with individuals of other species

Now we will see the value of species

First is they maintain and balance the ecosystem.

They defend to one another to make more
efficient, productive, and sustainable ecosystem.
So, we must maintain high species diversity.
They provide services that we humans cannot
see.

For example, wherein we can see direct value of

species so in fishery and forestry man use them
also we consume those different kinds of species
Yes Sir
Another example of value of species is in the
ecological processes they watershed protection
or the role of vegetation in carbon and water
cycles

Do you understand students??

Now we proceed to our activity

So, turn your LMs into page 331 we can see

there the table

ORGA VALU DIREC INDIR AEST

NISN E T ECT HEYI
ECON EECO C
OMIC NOMI VALU
VALU C E
E VALU

Listen to my instructions class

I will give you 5 minutes to go out and explore

what are the organism that is found in our school (Students doing the activity)
campus then after that you will classify them if
it is direct, indirect or aesthetic value

Then you will present it in our class after the

said time will be consumed

Your time starts now (After the presentation)

Now let us see what the organisms that you had

listed in your notebooks (Students clapping)

Let’s start the presentation in front

Very good to all of you for cooperating with our

activity today

Let’s give ourselves a round of applause

Stability is the method of maintaining a single
We must maintain stability in the environment characteristic of an organism
for us to prevent extinction of these species.

What is meant by stability?

Anyone??

Yes, Dennis

Very good Dennis

Stability is the ability to maintain a steady state

even after the stress or disturbance has occurred.
In order for the ecosystem to be considered
stable it needs to have mechanism in place to
return it in its original state after the disturbance Natural disasters sir
occurs.

10. Elaborate
What are those changes or disturbances that are
usually present in our ecosystem?

Anyone??

Yes Ira
Exactly
Very good Ira

So, we are experiencing natural disasters and

human make events that are being present in our
ecosystem.
When do we experience this kind of situation??

For example, floods many species also dies in

this situation those who cannot survive the
extreme water that is passing their sheds.
For example, water pollution
What is the effect of this disaster to humans?
The effect of this disaster is the loss of different
kind of species that is contributing to the
ecosystem

11. Evaluate
Bring out ½ sheet of paper then complete the
graphic organizer below
You are given 6 minutes to finish the said
activity
12. Extend

So, for your assignment in a short bond paper

draw an ecosystem with high biodiversity

That ends our lesson for today class, have a

good day and God bless you all! Goodbye!
