I.OBJECTIVES
At the end of the lesson, 90% of the students are expected to:
a. describe Rock resources
b. identify the different classification of rocks; and
c. recognize the importance of rocks.

II. SUBJECT MATTER

Topic: Rock Resources
Materials: Visual Aid, Laptop, Chalk and Board
References: Science Grade 7 Learner’s Material and Teacher’s Guide pp.92
Science Process: Comparing and Discovery

III. PROCEDURE

Teacher’s Activity Students’ Activity

A. PREPARATORY ACTIVITY

● Greetings
● Checking of Attendance

Motivation

Okay class, what can you see on the top of the

table?
Rocks Ma’am.
You’re right!

What did you observe?

Very good. It’s hard Ma’am.

How about the shape of this?

It’s round, oval and etc.
Excellent.

B. PRESENTATION OF THE LESSON

Do you have an idea of what is our topic for

today?
Yes Ma’am.
What is it?
It’s all about rocks Ma’am.
You’re right.

Discussion

What is a rock?
Rocks are generally composed of an
assemblage of minerals.
Very good.

Rocks are aggregates of Minerals.

I have here a video of how are rocks formed.

Please watch and listen carefully.
(The students will silently watch the video.)
Based on the video, how are rocks formed?
(The students will actively reflect and share
their ideas.)
Excellent!

What are the three types of rocks? The three types of rocks are sedimentary,
metamorphic and igneous rock.
You’re right.

What is a sedimentary rock? Sedimentary rock are formed from particles of

san, shells, pebbles and other fragments of
material.

Who can give an example of sedimentary (The students will actively reflect and share
rock? their ideas.)

Bravo!

What is a metamorphic rock? Metamorphic rocks form when changes in the

composition and/or texture of a rock occur as
a result of increasing pressure or temperature
but stop short of melting minerals.

Who can give an example of metamorphic

rock? (The students will actively share their ideas.)

What is an igneous rock? Igneous Rocks are all rocks that form by
cooling and/or crystalization of molten
material within the crust or at the Earth’s
surface.

Who can give an example of igneous rock?

(The students will share their ideas.)

Bravo!

What are the importance of rocks? (The students will give and share their
thoughts.)
Excellent!

IV. GENERALIZATION

To test if you really understand our lesson,

I will ask you several question.

What is a rock?
Rock is a naturally occurring solid aggregate
of minerals or glass.
How rocks are formed?
Rocks are formed from cooling of a mass of
Very good. molten rock.

What else?
(The students will answer.)
Excellent!

IV. APPLICATION

Now class, I want you to group yourself into

three.
Each group will be given a pictures of rocks
and identify what type of rocks are these.

Did you understand?

Yes Ma’am.
I will give you 10 minutes to do this activity.
You may now start!
(The students will share their ideas.)
Time’s up!

I need two representative to present your

output.
(Each group will present their output.)
Good Job!

Direction: Choose the letter of the correct answer.

1. These rocks are formed when melted rock cools and solidifies.
a. Sedimentary rocks c. Metamorphic rocks
b. Igneous rocks d. Ignis Rock

are eroded and finally settle down, forming one layer of sediments.
a. Sedimentary rocks c. Metamorphic rocks
c. Igneous rocks d. Ignis Rock
3. These rocks are formed when pre-existing rocks are subjected to high temperatures
and/or pressure and interaction with chemically active fluids.
a. Sedimentary rocks c. Metamorphic rocks
b. Igneous rocks d. Ignis Rock
4. Are naturally occurring solid aggregate of minerals or glass.
a. Rocks c. Metal
c. Soil d. Active
5. These are the Types of Rocks EXCEPT?
a. Sedimentary rocks b. Metamorphic rocks c. Ignis Rock
