A. Engagement
1. What do you call the animals that lives in the water? Give examples of Aquatic Animals
1. Review 2. What do you call the animals that lives on land? Give examples of terrestrial animals

2. Unlocking of Difficulties Identify the meaning of the following words through pictures.(English Integration)
1.Metamorphosis- is a biological process by which an animal physically develops ,grow,
and change its form

a. b. c. d.

2.Chrysalisis also known as Pupa making a cocoon around themselves. They do not
eat for a few days but many changes happens to its body.

a. b. c. d.

3. Larvae- hatch from egg but does not look like the adult insect. Larvae grow quickly
enough to molt or shed their exoskeleton.

3. Motivation

A. Picture Puzzle (Game)

Each group will be given a cut out picture place inside an envelop andassemble them in
order to identify the insect.
B. Reading a Poem (English Integration)
The BUTTERFLY Life
( Poem )
A butterfly begins
By laying all her eggs
Out pops a caterpillar
Crawling on its legs
The caterpillar first is
Very, very thin
But it eats and eats and eats
Till it burst out through its skin!

Soon the caterpillars

Grew nice and big
So it climbs on top
Of a tiny leaf or twig.
It makes a hard shell And there it hangs inside
The shell soon cracks
And then the parts divide.

Now here's a fact

That’s really, really strange:
Inside the shell
There’s been a major change
When the shell opens,
What comes out?
A beautiful butterfly
Fluttering about!

C. Poem Comprehension
Ask: What is the Poem all about?
What is the beginning of the Butterfly’s life?
What comes out from the egg?
How does the caterpillar move?
What is the food of the caterpillar?
What will happen to its skin after eating a lot?
Describe the major change of the caterpillar after it makes a hard shell or
cocoon?

• Where do they lay their eggs?
• At what stage of its life cycle it is consider as pest and destructive to the farmers,
Why?
• At what stage it rest and develops?
• What is the last stage of their life cycle?
C. Generalization
1. What is a Complete Metamorphosis?
2. What are the stages of a Complete Metamorphosis?
3. Name animals that undergoes Complete Metamorphosis?

C. Elaboration
A. Answering Varied Worksheets of Complete Metamorphosis (Diversity of
Learners)
B. Values infusion(ESP Integration)
Ask: a. Are butterflies useful or harmful insects?
b. So the next time you see a butterfly, are you going to harm them or not?
c. Are mosquitoes and flies useful or harmful insects? Why?
d. Where do they lay their eggs?
e. How can we prevent mosquitoes and flies from breeding?

What to do :
1. The whole group will listen to the instruction given by the teacher.
1. Choose among the members who will act as, timer, recorder, leader and presenter.
2. The leaders will get from the teacher the materials to be used for the activity.
3. Put materials one by one in the basin. Observe each characteristics and write them on
the chart below.

Name of Characteristics of the Material Put a ( )if material

objects absorbs water or (X) if
BEFORE AFTER
does not
adding water adding water

5. Lift up the materials and squeeze. Let the water drip down on the basin. Did the water
come out? Why or why not.
6 Record the observation in the chart.
7. Do the same for each material.
8. After observing all the materials, clean up the working place for further use. Discuss
your observation in the class.

Guide Questions:

1. What characteristics did you observe from each of the materials before placing
them in water? When you squeeze each of the materials what comes out from
them.

2. Did all the materials absorb water?

3. Which of the materials absorb water? What are these materials made of?

4. Which of the materials did not absorb water? What are these materials made of?

5. Based on the activity, Classify the materials based on their ability to absorb water.
