11 | P a g e
C Separate each component by just using your
hands
D. Separate each component by mixing them in a glass of water
There are many ways of separating mixture. In this lesson, you shall learn
about filtration and evaporation.
FILTRATION
Filtration is a technique in which an insoluble solid is separated from liquid. It
uses a
filter like mesh cloth or a filter paper to separate solid components from liquid. Filtration
is good in separating an insoluble solid from a liquid. This process is used if you want
your water free from solid particles. You can also use filtration if you want to separate
sand from a mixture of sand and water.
Insoluble solids are materials or substances that do not dissolve thus,
formingheterogeneous mixture. In the filtration process, the mixture will pass through the
filter paper, the insoluble solid left on the filter paper are called residue and the water that
passes through the filter paper is called the filtrate.
EVAPORATION
Evaporation is a technique used in separating soluble solid from a liquid. Soluble
solids are substances that dissolve in a solvent. Solvents are substances that dissolve
other substances.

1 Sigaw ng Pugad Lawin
13 | P a g e
Ang Sigaw ng Pugad Lawin (kilala rin sa tawag na Sigaw ng Balintawak) ay ipinahayag
ng Katipunan at naging simula ng Himagsikang Pilipino laban sa Imperyong Kastila upang makamit
ang kasarinlan.
Sa huling bahagi ng Agosto 1896, ang mga kasapi ng Katipunan (Katipunero) sa pamumuno
ni Andres Bonifacio ay naghimagsik sa isang lugar na tinatawag na Kalookan, na mas malawak sa
kasalukuyang nasasakupan ng Lungsod ng Kalookan na maaaring naisanib na ngayon sa
kasalukuyang Lungsod ng Quezon.
Orihinal na tumutukoy ang katawagang "Sigaw" sa sagupaan sa pagitan ng mga Katipunero at ng
mga Guwardiya Sibil. Maari din na tumukoy ang sigaw sa pagpunit ng sedula (cédulas personales)
bilang pagsuway sa batas at kautusan ng Espanya. Ito ay literal na may kasamang makabayang
sigaw.
Dahil sa magkakaibang pahayag at kalabuan ng lugar kung saan nangyari ito, ang tumpak na
petsa at lugar ng sigaw ay pinagtatalunan pa. Mula 1908 hanggang 1963, ang opisyal na
paninindigan ay nangyari ang sigaw noong Agosto 26 sa Balintawak. Noong 1963, ipinahayag ng
pamahalaan ng Pilipinas na nangyari ang sigaw noong Agosto 23 sa Pugad Lawin, Lungsod Quezon.
Ito ay isang natatatanging pangyayari sa kasaysayan ng Pilipinas na binubuo ng mahigit
limandaang Katipunero na sabay-sabay na pinunit ang kanikanilang sedula bilang pagpapatunay ng
kanilang tuluyang pagtiwalag sa pamumuno ng mga Espanyol sa Pilipinas. Ito ay naganap
noong Agosto 23, 1896 sa pamumuno ni Andres Bonifacio, ang Supremo ng Katipunan.
Noong Hulyo 5, 1896, natuklasan ng pamahalaang Espanya ang samahang Katipunan. Isang liham
ang ipinadala ni Tenyente Manuel Sityar, isang opisyal ng Pasig, sa Gobernador Sibil
ng Maynila upang ipaabot ang kaniyang kaalaman sa samahang kubling binubuo sa kabisera. Ang
samahan ay buong-tapang na nagsisiwalat ng mga kamalian ng pamahalaan at ang puwersa nito ay
umabot na maging sa kalapit na sakop ng Maynila gaya ng Mandaluyong at San Juan.
Agosto 23, 1896 nang marating nila ang tahanan ni Juan A. Ramos, anak ng kinikilalang “Ina ng
Katipunan” na si Melchora Aquino. Sa kabila ng pilit pagtanggi ng kaniyang bayaw na si Teodoro
Plata ay sumang-ayon naman ang lahat na simulan na ang pakikipaglaban.

2 Ang Kumbensyon sa Tejeros
TejerosKumbensyon
Ang Tejeros Kumbensyon (kahaliling pangalan kasama ang Tejeros Assembly atTejeros
Congress) ay ang pulong na ginanap noong Marso 22, 1897 sa pagitan ng mga paksyon ng
Magdiwang at Magdalo ng Katipunan sa San Francisco de Malabon, Cavite (ngayon General Trias,
ngunit ang site ngayon ay nasa Rosario, Cavite).
Layunin
Ang kumbensyon ay tinawag upang talakayin ang pagtatanggol ng Cavite laban sa mga
Kastila sa panahon ng Rebolusyong Pilipino. Ang kontemporaryong Gobernador Heneral, Camilo de
Polavieja, ay nakuha muli ang Cavite mismo. Sa halip, ang kumbensyon ay naging isang halalan
upang magpasya ang mga pinuno ng rebolusyonaryong kilusan sa pamamagitan ng pagtawid sa
Korte Suprema.

lahat ng mga miyembro nito ay dapat maglingkod sa ilalim ng prinsipyo ng kalayaan, pagkakapantay-
pantay at kapatiran, kung saan itinatag ang republikano. Sa kabila ng pag-aalala ni Andres Bonifacio
sa kakulangan ng mga opisyal at kinatawan mula sa iba pang mga lalawigan, obligado ang Magdalo
na magpatuloy sa halalan.
Artemio Ricarte. Pagkatapos ay ipinataw ni Bonifacio ang kombensyon bilang Supremo ng Katipunan.
Ang ilang mga pinuno ng Magdiwang, na pinangunahan nina Pio del Pilar at Mariano
Llanera, ay tumanggi sa kanilang nakaraang iginiit na ang resulta ng kombensyo ay walang bisa at sa
gayon kinikilala ang pagiging totoo ng mga nahalal na pinuno. Kalaunan ay sinakop ang limang
bakanteng posisyon nang mahirang mula kay Emilio Aguinaldo. Ang mga bagong hinirang na opisyal
ay nanumpa ng tanggapan noong Abril 24, 1897. Si
Emilio Aguinaldo, sa parehong araw, ay nagtipon ng unang sesyon ng gabinete at naglabas ng isang
opisyal na pabilog na nagpapaalam sa mga pangulo ng bayan at lahat na munisipyo na siya ay napili
nang maayos ng kumbensyon at ipinapalagay na ang kanyang posisyon bilang pangulo.

Trees have many uses as enumerated in the previous chapters/lessons. The number
of trees defines the love and care that we give to our environment.
Planting trees is not only an enjoyable task that serves as a past time, but can
also be a source of income or livelihood for the family and the community. Planting
trees requires proper knowledge and skills. The use of scientific processes in
propagating trees ensures the increase of productivity.
Plant propagation is the process of reproducing or creating a new plant or
seedling. It is a method of growing new plants from seed or from parts of existing
plants.
The success of plant propagation does not only depend on the skills of the
person doing it, nor the quality of the plant being planted but also with the materials
or tools that you are using in the propagating process. Tools and equipment play a
vital role in plant propagation using systematic process. The availability of the
appropriate tools and equipment makes the work easier, faster and helps in the
proper operation of the different procedures in plant propagation.
Tools and Equipment in Plant Propagation

only the most vigorous one on each stub; prune out all the
others. Bark grafts tend to form weak unions and therefore
usually require staking or support during the first few years.
Example: mango, guava, santol, avocado, and guyabano
2. Budding
a. Cut bud sticks from strong shoots of the present season's
growth with mature buds that are slightly brownish in color.
b. Clip off the leaves from the bud sticks, leaving 1/2 inch of the
leafstalk for a handle.
c. Discard the soft tips of the bud sticks.
d. Choose branches from the rootstock that are the size of a
lead pencil up to 1/2-inch in diameter. Larger branches have
too thick bark for this method to work.
e. On the rootstock, about 15 or more inches from the trunk,
make a T cut across the bark.
f. With a knife blade, lift the corners and carefully loosen the
bark.
g. Cut a bud from the bud stick which includes a thin piece of
attached wood.
h. Slide the bud under the flaps of the bark on the rootstock
until the ends are firmly united. Using an electrician's tape,
tie the bud to the rootstock.
i. Wrap the ends tightly, but be sure not to cover the bud with
the tape.
j. In two to three weeks, cut the tie so you will not girdle the
graft. The next year, cut the rootstock off above the graft
when the bud starts growing.
k. Remove any shoots below the graft.
l. On the second year, remove all growth from the tree except
the bud grafted shoots.
3. Marcotting
a. Remove the ring of bark on a large branch of a tree.
b. The inner surface scraped lightly
c. Then, wrapped the moist soil or moss covered with plastic
sheets or coco husk.
d. Secure tight on both ends with twine.
e. When roots have developed (after a month, cut the marcot.
f. Transplanted it in a pot or plastic bag.
Examples: star apple, makopa, guava, langka, and duhat
4. Inarching
a. Select a growing rootstock and fitting it with a branch that will
be grafted by a longitudinal cut.
b. Fit both cuts together and secure the tie with twine.
