Very Good!

ENGAGE

Before we start our new lesson for today, Students will participate.
let's have a game first. You need to
identify the pictures weather they are
belong to renewable resources or non-
renewable resources. (execute the activity)

To start our new lesson, I will be showing

you a video of the beauty and splendor of
the Philippines.

And now, just sit back, relax and let me

take you to a tour around the Philippine
Archipelago. (Show video presentation
about the physical features and varied life
forms in the Philippines)
What are the things you have observed in
the video?
We were able to explore the
different rich natural resources
found in the Philippine Archipelago.

Yes! Exactly. Our country is bountiful in

natural resources starting from varied
physical features down to the diverse plant
and animal forms.

Student: These are the things that

Now let's move to our new topic for today are available around us which we

Talking about how lucky we are in the Student: Resources are things that

you associate with the word “resources”? drawn on when needed.

Yes?

Good. How about another idea.

Exactly. (student answer varies)

e.g., air, water, plants, animals, soil,
Based on your answers, we can define rocks, minerals, crude oil, and other
resources as things used by people in order fossil fuels, sunlight, wind, car,
to survive or satisfy needs. house, clothes, jewelry, money, etc.

Anybody who wants to give examples of

resources?

Very Good!

Resources such as air, water, plants,

animals, soil, rocks, minerals, crude oil,
and other fossil fuels, sunlight, and wind
are considered as natural resources because
they are already available in the nature.
Student: Bays, rivers, lakes, falls,
Very Good! gulfs, straits and swamps.

Now, since we are talking about resources,
Philippines as an archipelago, is
considered to be rich in natural resources!
Let’s name out the natural resources of our
country.
Student: These bodies of water
support the survival of diverse
organisms for food as well as for
economic activities.

We are blessed with the presence of

different water forms.

What are these water forms?

What is the importance of these water
forms?

Precisely.

EXPLORE

Natural resources can ve classified in to The students are expected to jot

RENEWABLE AND NON- down notes about:
RENEWABLE RESOURCES
Renewable and non-renewable
 Prompt the class to guess what the resources

resource is used.
Student: It refers to something that
Examples of renewable resources are: can be replace
 Solar energy
 Wind energy Student: For me solar energy
 Hydroelectric energy because it only uses sun to generate
 Geothermal energy electricity.
 Biomass energy
 Air and water (No one correctly defines it.)

 For you which renewable energy is the

best to use for the future?

It is generally accepted that wind and

solar energy are the ideal options when
it comes to clean and sustainable
sources of energy. They are the fastest-
growing, the cheapest and do much less
damage to nature and wildlife
surrounding their sites as opposed to
fossil fuels.

 Ask for a volunteer to tell what the

word non-renewable means, based on
the use of the prefix non.

Non-renewable energy is a resource that

forms at a rate that is much slower than
the rate that is consumed.

Examples of non-renewable resources are:

 Coal
 Oil
 Natural gas
 Why is it important to try to use as
many renewable resources as possible?
 What happens if the sun isn’t shining
or the wind isn’t blowing?
The answer to this question is:
batteries. When the sun is shining
Student: It is important to use
renewable resources because they’ll
always be available. Nonrenewable
energy sources, like fossil fuels, will
eventually run out.
Student: I think solar panels and
wind mill will never work.
 and the wind is blowing, solar panels
and wind turbines (as well as other
renewable sources such as
hydropower) produce electricity, and
this electricity is stored in large
batteries.
Now after knowing the difference between
renewable and non-renewable resources it
is also important to know the ways on how
we help to conserve our natural resources.
 Give me some ways on how to
conserve or use wisely the energy.
EXPLAIN
As a simple assessment on your
understanding try to answer this activity.
Bring out a sheet of paper and you will put
your answers there and after that
Congratulations students! Almost all of
you got a perfect score . Later we will
check further your understanding about our
topic today.
 Why does petroleum and coal is an
example of non-renewable resources?
 Why does wind, biomass and
hydroelectric energy an example of
renewable energy?

Student:
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle (3R)
Student:
Turn off the lights when you are not
in a room
Student:
Instead of using motor cycles why
dont we use bicycle or we can walk
if we are going a near places
Answers:
1. Non-renewable resources
2. Renewable resources
3. Renewable resources
4. Non-renewable resources
5. Renewable resources
Student:
Coal and petroleum are called non
renewable resources because they
cannot be formed quickly.
Student:
They take a lot of time to form.
Student:
They are called renewable energy
sources because they are naturally
replenished. Day after day, the sun
shines, plants grow, wind blows,
and rivers flow.
Student:
Because it can be easily replenished
without the help of man.
 Why it is important to know the
importance of knowing how to
conserve natural resources?
Although energy cannot be created or
destroyed, it is still important that we
conserve it in the sense of being smart
about using the available energy within our
environment. Our decisions about how we
use energy impact the planet’s natural
systems in complex ways. It’s vital that we
choose our energy sources carefully and be
mindful of the amount
 Do you believe that renewable
resources are againsts climate change?
Congratulations everyone we are almost
done now let's wrap it up. Can you
summarize what you learn for today.
EVALUATE
The following are the importance of
conservation of natural resources
and students may answer the
following:
 Preserve Species Diversity
 Preserve Cultural Heritage
 Health and Wellbeing
 Recreation
 Survival of the Human Race
 Prevent Soil Erosion and
Maintaining Soil Quality
 Reduce Flooding
 Reduce Air Pollution and Water
Pollution
 Improvement the Nation’s
Economy
 Improvement of Food
Production
Student: Yes, because they make
electricity.
Student:
Natural resources are either
renewable or non-renewable.
Renewable refers to those who can
renew themselves in a short period
of time. This includes solar, wind,
biomass, hydropower and
geothermal energy.
Student:
Non-renewable are those that can no
longer be tapped once the stock is
already used up. It tooks few
million years for them to be
available again.
