SAMPLE SEMI-DETAILED LESSON PLAN IN SCIENCE 5

Content Standards

The learners demonstrate understanding of weathering and soil erosion shape the Earth’s surface and affect
living things and the environment.

Performance Standards

The learners should be able to participate in projects that reduce soil erosion in the community.

I. OBJECTIVES:
1. Describe how rocks turn into soil;
2. Identify the forces that break down rocks.
3. Explain how rocks are broken down in mechanical weathering.
MELC Code: S5FE - IVa – 1

II. SUBJECT MATTER: Weathering and Soil Erosion

Day 1 / Lesson 1 (Mechanical Weathering)

a. Reference/s: Science Beyond Boarders 5 Textbook pp. 155-157

b. Science Concept: The forces of weathering and erosion are continually breaking down the earth.
Rock is worn away and soil is washed into rivers and seas. Water and wind are constantly changing the
force of the earth. Large rock formation is broken down by the wind and water in a process called
weathering.
c. Science Processes: observing, identifying, investigating, collaborating:

d. Material/s: activity cards/sheets, module materials, marking pens, cartolina, meta

cards , powerpoint presentation
e. Values Integration: Appreciate the beauty of our natural resources and to help preserve the natural
resources in the community

Class what do you see while you were in an island
beach resort?
What do you think why are those rock has different
forms?
I will support all the project and activities to
preserve our natural resources in our community.
I will show my appreciation by cleaning and
preserving these natural resources in our
community.

Yes, you’ve got an idea, Very Good!

Values Integration: Yes teacher!

As a Grade 5 learner and member YES-O Club in our
school, how are you going to preserve these natural
resources in your community?
