Teacher’s Activity Pupil’s Activity

Today, we will discuss about

Living Things and Non Living Things
Living Things Non – Living Things
 Living Things have these characteristics
1. It moves by itself
2. It grows
3. It needs foods
4. It reproduce
5. It breath

Non- Living Things don’t have those characteristics

Let’s go back to the pictures

What can you say about the flower?

Is it Living Things or Non – Living Things? Living Things
Why? It move by itself
It grow, it need
Food.
Very Good!

How about the two people “Lolo & Lola” Living Things
Is it Living Things or Non – Living Things? It move by itself
Why? It grow, it need
Foods.

The Electric Fan? Non-Living Things

Very Good!
Because it does need food, it will never grow,
it will not move by itself, it will not reproduce.

The Dog? Living Things

It move by itself
It grow, it need
Foods.

So what is Living Things? Living Things, it

grow,
reproduce, it
moves by itself, its
breath and it need
food.

Non-Living Things? Non-Living Things,

 don’t have those
characteristics,
can’t grow, move
or reproduce, they
don’t need water,
air and food.

Valuing:
We have to take good of all the things.
May it be living or Non-Living for it is
God’s creation.
