A. Reviewing previous lesson Song: Old McDonald Had a Farm

or presenting the new ( Cebuano Version)
lesson.
What’s In
“TAKE ME BACK”
Identify the 5 body parts of animals, that you have
observed by encircling the words inside the puzzle box
horizontally.
B. Establishing a purpose for
the lesson
What’s New
Directions: Observe 3 animals in different habitats in
your community such as fish, bird and cat. Identify its
body parts and functions as well as the place where
they live. Fill out the table below.

C. Presenting/instances of the
new lesson
What is it

Habitat is the natural environment where animals live,

find food and interact with other animals. They are
grouped according to their environment namely: LAND
ANIMALS also known as Terrestrial animals that live
in land.
WATER ANIMALS also known as Aquatic animals that
live in water.
AIR ANIMALS also known as Aerial animals that live
in the air.

D. Discussing new concepts These animals have different body parts and each part
and practicing new skill #1 has functions. The following are the functions of
animals’ body parts.

For Sensing
Most animals have eyes, ears and nose that help them
sense their surroundings. Some animals use special
body parts for sensing. Butterflies, ants, shrimp, crabs
and many other animals have antennas on their heads.
An antenna is a body part that can be used for feeling,
hearing, smelling and tasting.

For Movement
Animals’ ways of movement depend on their body parts
for movement.
Animals with strong legs and feet walk and run. Horses,
carabaos, deer, and ostrich are examples of these
animals.
Most insects have wings and legs like bees, butterflies
and beetles. Birds and bats also have feet and wings.
They fly and walk too.
Fish have fins. They swim. Animals with flippers like
whales, dolphins and marine turtles also swim.

For Getting Food

The mouth of an animal is adapted to the kind of food
it gets and eats.
Look at a carabao and a horse. They use their flat
teeth to crushing and chewing grass.
Dogs, cats, lions and tigers are animals with strong jaws
and pointed teeth at the side of the mouth.
Birds have beaks that they use for picking grains or
cracking nuts.
A butterfly uses its tube-like proboscis to sip the
nectar.
Most fish use their teeth to catch and crush their
food.
A squid uses its tentacles to catch food and push it into
its stomach
Clams and other shellfish have hairlike parts called cilia
that sweep tiny animals in the water to the open shell
and into the mouth.
Spiders use their fangs to capture animals for food.

For Protection
Animals have body coverings that protect them from
heat and cold.
Animals like dogs and cats have fur.
Birds have feathers and fish have scales.
Other animals like turtles, crabs, and snails have shells.
E. Discussing new concepts
and practicing new skill #2

description in column B by using a line.
