*Preliminaries Teacher's Activity Student's Response
 Prayer
Before we start may I request Mr. Lizardo you lead us a
prayer

 Greetings Good morning, class! Good Morning Sir

 Checking of Who is absent today? No absent on the class sir

attendance

 Setting of As the lecture/discussion is ongoing, I want you to:

Standards 1. be quiet and listen carefully to our discussion.
2. listen to your classmates when they are sharing
their ideas/presentation.
3. raise your hand when you want to speak.
 4. participate in any group activity to achieve
learning.
5. be cooperative with your classmates.
6. take down important notes of the lessons

Class before we start our discussion, please read first

the Objectives of the lesson.
At the end of the lesson, students must be able
to:
 Reading the lesson A. Define the three types of laws of motion
objectives B. Appreciate the laws of motion via examples of it
and;
C. construct a chart to differentiate the 3 laws of
motion.

1. Reviewing previous
lesson
what was our last topic? sir our last topic is all about
mitosis
Yes, Ms. Gomez

What is mitosis? Mitosis is a process of cell

Anyone from the class? division that results in two
genetically identical daughter
cells, crucial for growth and
Yes, Mr. Sebio repair.

Yes, brilliant idea!

Mitosis consists of several

What is the processes mitosis? phases: prophase, metaphase,
anaphase, and telophase,
Yes, Ms. Gent followed by cytokinesis. These
phases ensure proper
Yes, very good! chromosome segregation and
All of you class got the correct answer. result in two identical daughter
cells.
Since that we already know with our previous
discussion lets proceed on in our new discussion.

Since that we already know with our previous

discussion lets proceed on in our new discussion.
MOTIVATION Class are you falls in energy?
So now we have an activity called “copy me” all you (the students will do the
have to do is copy the image that I have presented to activity)
you class.
1 picture consist of 20 second to copy
This is going to be fun class!
Am I understood class? Yes, sir

Are you ready class?

 Activity Before we go deeper to our discussion, let us have first
another activity with the same groupings. This called
the “We Got all the solution” (Students will do the activity)
Class for now I divide you in three groups we have an
activity. All you need to do to brainstorm a simple
action they can take to protect endangered species.

Ill give 5 minutes to brainstorm in your group and when

the time is up, you need to choose in your group a one
representative to discuss it in front!

The group who got a brilliant idea will have a 10 point!

Materials:
Marker
Manila Paper

Am I understood?

Let’s Begin!

 Analysis So now before we proceed in our discussion, I have Sir I observed in our previous
some question first. activity is about a animal’s sir
who got endangered.
What have been observed in our activity class?
Okay from group 1?
Yes, Ms. Gentio

Thank you, Ms. Gentio!

Okay another question!

Sir, we need to protect
Why we need to protect the endangered species endangered species to maintain
animal? biodiversity, ecological balance,
and preserve essential
In Group 2? resources for future
generations.
Yes, Ms. Magbanua

Ok! Very Good

Okay another question!

What are the best implementation in protecting

endangered species?
Sir, The best ways to protect
endangered species include
In Group 3?
habitat preservation, enforcing
Yes, Mr. Polenzo anti-poaching laws, wildlife
conservation programs, and
Yes very, good raising public awareness.

All of you got the correct answer!

 Have ever wondered what is our topic today class?
Sir, our topic today is all about
Yes, Mr. Escolano the Protection and
Conservation of Endangered
Yes, Very Good! and Economically Important
Species
You Got it Right!

 Abstraction Biodiversity and Value of Species

we defined biodiversity as the flexibility among living

things from all sources and the ecological complexes of
which they are a member of including differences
within and between species and between ecosystems.
They also perform an important role in keeping the
stability in the ecosystem.

The value of species can be divided into three

categories:

1. Direct Economic Value This term collectively refers

to the utilization of biological resources either for direct
consumption or for commercial purposes. Cutting
bamboo poles from the forest is a good example of
direct economic value for direct consumption as
material for native furniture or bamboo huts and
cottages. Meanwhile, medicines that are developed
from plant or animal extract are examples of direct
economic value for commercial purposes

2. Indirect Economic Value There are benefits

produced by species even without us using them. For
example, certain plant species maintain the chemical
quality of natural water bodies, prevent soil erosion
and floods, cycle minerals in the soil, and absorb
pollutants. Several animals also play many roles in the
ecosystem. The following are some roles of species in
the ecosystem:

o Bees are important pollinators to most crops. In

addition to their ecological niche. They are also a food
source to predators like birds, spiders, lizards, and
other animals

3. Aesthetic Value The aesthetic value of species refers

to the feeling of pleasure derived from the appreciation
of high biodiversity in a certain area. These include a
panoramic view of tropical forests or species diversity
of plants and animals that lead to recreation and
tourism. Among the well-known places in the
Philippines appreciated for high biodiversity are:
Tubbataha Reef in Sulo Sea, Sumilon Island in
SouthEastern Cebu, Eden Farm in Davao, and Initao
National Park in Misamis Oriental, Mindanao.
Stability in Ecosystem
A stable ecosystem is necessary to sustain its
population across generations. It is where situations are
held constant by negative response systems working
within the ecosystem. The following are the principles
of ecosystem stability:  Ecosystems dispose of waste
and replenish nutrients by recycling all elements;

threats to Biodiversity
Humans are showered with the numerous benefits
obtained from high species biodiversity. However, their
anthropogenic activities have become threats to
biodiversity due to destruction or loss of habitat; such
as when humans resort to kaingin to clear forest for
farming.
Endangered species
refers to species or subspecies that are not critically
endangered but whose survival in the wild is unlikely to
thrive if unwanted human factors continue operating.
In addition, critically endangered species refers to a
species or subspecies that are facing an extremely high
risk of extinction in the wild in the immediate future,
such as the avian species Philippine Eagle shown in
Figure 1. To determine whether any wildlife
species/subspecies is threatened, the following
internationally accepted criteria have been used:

Protection and Conservation Measures To address the

biodiversity concerns, the Philippines has issued
Republic Act No. 9147 also known as the “Wildlife
Resources Conservation and Protection Act”. It is an act
providing for the conservation and protection of
wildlife resources and their habitats to promote
ecological balance and enhance biological diversity.
Under this act, the provision shall be enforceable for all
wildlife species found in all areas of the country,
including protected areas under RA 7586 and critical
habitats. This act shall also apply to exotic species
which are traded, cultured, maintained, and/or bred in
captivity or propagated in the country. Critical habitats
were designated outside protected areas and were
subjected to stringent protection from any form of
exploitation or destruction which may be detrimental
to the survival of threatened species dependent therein
imposing penalties over violation of this act. Center of
Plant Diversity was also established to protect and
preserve endemic plant species. Mt. Kitanglad in
Bukidnon, Mt. Apo in Davao, and Agusan Marsh in
Agusan del Sur are examples of the established center
 of plant diversity in Mindanao. Identification of
research sites is also another initiative to promote
protection and conservation of wildlife, an example of
which sites in Mindanao are Mt. Kitanglad Range in
Bukidnon and Camiguin islands. In addition, the
government has launched the National Greening
Program to mitigate deforestation by funding and
providing local farmers with economically important
plant species such as cacao, falcate, and fruit trees.
