Systems in plants Animals and plants have 1. describe in simple terms how the
and animals systems that function to following human body systems
keep them alive. work: muscular, skeletal,
digestive, circulatory, and
respiratory
3. observe the root and shoot system
in plants and describe why they
are important
Plants and Animals and plants live 4. use a drawing or diagram to
animals and their in habitats that meet classify some Philippine animals
habitats their basic needs. and plants, based on their
habitat: some live on land
(terrestrial), live in water (aquatic)
or fly in the air (aerial);
5. make a list or draw up a table
1. Name the human body system
(muscular, skeletal, digestive,

their habitat
3. Discuss why plants and animals live in
a particular habitat
4. Make a graphic organizer that shows
the classification of plants and animals
based on their habitat

a particular habitat, such as a garden,
rice field, seashore, and mangrove
swamp.
2. Explain why these plants and animals
live in a particular habitat, such as a
garden, rice field, seashore, and
mangrove swamp.
3. Draw a table of plants and animals that
live in a particular habitat, such as a
garden, rice field, seashore, and
mangrove swamp.
1. Define life cycle.
2. Discuss the different stages in the life
cycle of animals such as a butterfly,
frog, chicken, and human.
3. Compare the different stages in the life
cycle of animals such as a butterfly,
frog, chicken, and human.
4. Make flowcharts to compare the
different stages in the life cycle of
animals such as a butterfly, frog,
chicken, and human.
1. Describe animals according to the
food that they eat.
2. Classify animals according to the food
that they eat.
3. Construct a table to group animals
according to the food that they eat
 5. Food chains Food chains show a
series of living things that
depend on each other for
food.
Using drawings, tables,
and flowcharts is an
important skill in
learning science concepts
and in learning about
science processes.
8. draw a simple food chain using
living things from the Philippines
and label them as herbivores,
carnivores, and omnivores.
1. Define food chain
2. Identify living organisms in the
Philippines and the food that they eat
3. Classify living organisms as
herbivores, carnivores and omnivores
4. Draw a simple food chain and label
the organisms as herbivores,
carnivores and omnivores
