(Motivation)
Are you familiar with the song “The more

into like this one below.

“Reduce, reuse recycle, recycle, recycle.

Reduce reuse recycle is easy to do.

Cause your trash and my trash make up way

too much trash.

(Presentation) The mother is cooking food. It
is good.
(ENGAGE)
The boy is throwing garbage
(5 minutes) to the river. It is bad.

What are they doing?

Is it good? Or bad?

If the effect of the change is good, we call it

useful however if the effect of the change is
bad, we call it harmful.

What do you think is our topic or

lesson for today?

Today we will talk

about the CHANGES

THAT ARE USEFUL OR

On the other hand, many changes in the
strategies to develop critical and
creative thinking, as well as other things around us make our lives easy and
higher-order thinking skills convenient yet have HARMFUL effects to
the environment.
Example of changes that brings harmful effect to
the environment is DEFORESTATION.
Deforestation is the clearing and thinning of
forests by humans. This can lead to destruction

Harmful changes also include burning of old

tires or plastics, throwing of kerosene or
detergents in the water. These changes can lead

Vocabulary Enhancement:

Identify and discuss unfamiliar vocabulary

related to environmental changes, such as
"deforestation," "pollution," and "reduction."
Encourage students to define and use these
terms in their own sentences.

environment by putting a check mark (√) on the

proper column.

Group II: There are 3 frames labelled with

used paper, empty bottles, used clothes. In each
box, write 2 ways on how these materials can be
recycled.

Group III:
 1. Examine the pictures below.

2. Identify each material whether it is harmful or

useful to the

environment.

3. Segregate the pictures and put it in the

proper box.

After doing the activity, each group will

report their answers in front of the class in a
unique way.
