an assignment last meeting class?
Okay, did you read and review your notes? -yes sir
Glad to hear that.
A. ELICIT (3 mins)
- Here are our objectives for today’s lesson.
*Presents learning objectives to the class* *Class familiarizes the objectives

- Before we proceed let’s have first a short

review to check if you have learned something
from our previous lesson.

So, what was your last topic last meeting?

(Student raise their hand)
Yes?
- it’s all about the factors affecting climate.

What are those factors affecting the climate?

(Student raise their hand)
Yes?
- The factors affecting climate are altitude,
latitude, topography and ocean current.
Okay, very good!

B. ENGAGE (5 mins)

Before we start our lesson. We will

have first an activity. It is called:

ACTIVITY 1. WHERE DO I
BELONG?

I want you to classify the pictures

in the board and identify if it is a
cause or an effect of a climate
change.

Is that clear? - yes sir!

(Students’ possible answer.)

For this activity, we will split you CAUSE
into two groups. Group 1, you will
get pictures that depict the possible
causes of climate change. Group 2,
you will get pictures that show the
possible effects of climate change.
You may start now.
EFFECTS
Alright, time’s up.
Well done, class! We will see later
on if your answers are correct as we
go on with our discussion.
C. EXPLORE (20 minutes)

What is climate Change?

- it refers to the natural phenomena and has

been occurring since the Earth came in to
being.
(Students will listen attentively: active
Do you notice our climate nowadays? participation is encouraged)

Do you even notice that the climate today is

warmer than the climate in the past years?

Yes, it is.

Climate change refers also to the change in an

average weather of a given area or region. It
led also to the significant change in rainfall,
temperature, and wind patterns and other
measure of climate that occur several decades.

So, what was climate change again? - it refers to the natural phenomena and has
been occurring since the Earth came into being.
Based here on the picture class, can you give
your observation in the two pictures? Let’s
analyze the picture.

Yes?

Okay, very good! In picture A is there a living

thing on there like grass and trees. while,
picture B the living things there are died.

Another?

Yes?
(Student raise their hand)

- in the picture A sir is full of life, there's a tree,

Okay nice observation! That is correct in the
the grass is so green.
picture the temperature there are normal or
suitable to the people, grass and trees and the
other one since it has extreme temperature, it
leads to drought and the trees and grass cannot
survive in that kind of temperature.

(Student raise their hand)

Is there anyone to add?

- in the picture A sir, the temperature is normal.

on the other-hand, the temperature is so high or
extreme.

So, what do you think about climate change?

You're absolutely correct! if earth temperature (Student raise their hand)

gets warmer it causes changes in weather.
Since you’ve mentioned the word changes. So, - Climate change is when the earth’s
what can we conclude? temperature gets warmer and causes changes in
the weather
Okay, do you think these changes are natural
occurrence or there are things that causes it?

Later, we will find out the answer to that. - I think there are things that causes these
changes, sir!
Now, please read what is Climate change, class - yes sir!
“

So, we can say class that, climate

change is one of the most pressing
issues of our time, right? Do you Climate Change is the
notice that class, where the climate significant change in global
today is warmer than the climate temperature, precipitation,
before or the past years? wind patterns and other
measures of climate that
occur over several decades or
It has something to do with longer.
significant changes in global
temperature, precipitation, wind
patterns and other measures of
climate that occurs over several
decades or longer.

Now, let us have move the Causes

and Effects of Climate Change.

-yes sir!

For years, scientists believe that

Climate Change is caused by
human activities. Do you agree
class?

Okay, let’s check if your answer is

correct on Activity 1.
First, let us see what are The
Human Activities That Cause
Climate Change. Please read -yes sir!
Okay, Group 2, did the group 1 put
the right answers on the Causes of
Climate Change?

Very good! Now, what does

burning fossil fuels mean, class?

How about deforestation?
Why do you think deforestation causes climate
change?
Moving on to Intensive farming to
produce crops and livestock raising.
Intensive farming can contribute to
climate change. For example, the
use of synthetic fertilizers and
livestock manure produces nitrous
oxide emissions.
Do you have other ideas on what
are the other human activities that
causes Climate Change?
Yes? Goo!
very good, those are correct!
Next, we have The Effects of
Climate Change.
Human activities that causes
Climate Change:
• Burning fossil fuels
• Deforestation; and
• Intensive farming
Burning fossil fuels, it refers
to the burning of oil, natural
gases and coal to generate
energy.
Deforestation is the
purposeful clearing of
forested land.
Deforestation releases carbon
into the atmosphere, which
traps heat and contributes to
climate change.
Intensive farming is a
method of agriculture that focuses on
maximizing
production by using high
inputs of labor, machinery,
fertilizers, and pesticides.
Intensive livestock farming
also known as factory
farming is a type of animal
farming that aims to
maximize production by
confining animals in small
spaces and using high inputs
of feed, and antibiotics.
-sir?
Other human activities like
improper waste disposal,
increasing number of
vehicles which contribute to
pollution and greenhouse gas
emission can contribute to
Climate Change.
Okay, Group 1, did the group 2 put
the right answers on The Effects of
Climate Change?

Okay, very good!

Effects of Climate Change
Class:
Since we have learned that Climate • Extreme storms
Change includes the significant • Intense drought
changes in precipitation, droughts • Melting of glaciers; and
will be more frequent and more • Rising a sea level
severe which causes the glaciers to
melt that may then causes the rising
of sea levels.

It is like a domino effect, right,

class? There will be consequences
for our every action. So, we must be
careful for every action that we do
because it may have a good or
Negative effect. Do you understand?

-yes sir!
Did you understand our lesson for today?

Do you have any question from our topic class?

-yes sir!

Wow, very good! To deepen your

understanding of our lesson, let us
- none sir!
have a group activity

D. Explain (15 Minutes)

(Teacher gives feedback about their

work and give them score.)

Good job, everyone!

E. ELABORATE (3 minutes)
In your life now, what activity do
you do to take care of our earth and
it could the ways to lessen the
effects of climate change to us and
the environment?”
Recycling our garbage, we
must have different bins for
paper, plastic, and other
materials, so we can sort
them. I think it’s important to
recycle because it saves
resources and reduce waste.”

That’s great! Some more?


It’s great to hear that you’re all
taking action to acre for the earth
and lessen the effects of climate
change. Let’s keep up the good work.
For the recap of what we discussed,
who can define again what is
climate change?
Do we human, contribute to climate
change?”
How?
Excellent!
And climate change has negative
effects, what are those?
F. EVALUATION (10 minutes)
Direction: Write your answer on a
piece of paper.
(two points for correct answer)
1. What is the most significant
contributor to the greenhouse
effect?
a. Water vapor
b. Carbon dioxide
“Participating in tree planting
activities and planting trees
at home. Because trees help
to reduce carbon dioxide in
the atmosphere and improve
air quality”
Climate Change is changing
the pattern of weather that
cause flooding, droughts and
other natural disasters.
Yes, sir.
By burning fossil fuels,
deforestation, human
activities like transportation
and using products that
contribute to the pollution of
air and water. That have a
negative impact on
environment and human
health.”
The negative effects of
climate change to us and in
the environment are intense
drought, extreme floods,
rising of sea levels and
melting glaciers.”
