IV. PROCEDURE
How will you interpret the picture?
A. ELICIT Why does an organism eat another organism?

How do the predators capture the prey animals for food?

How do predators and prey animals interact with each other in the
environment?
Identify the statements below. Rearrange the jumbled letters to get the
B. ENGAGE correct answer.
1. Usn – The main source of energy
2. Srpdoceru – Organisms that can make their own food
3. Nstlpa – The most common producers in the ecosystem
4. mrcnsosue – Organisms that feed on other oraganism

Action Song: (to the tune of “May Pulis sa Ilalim ng Tulay”)

May damo, may damo sa ilalim ng tulay(2x)
May damo (6x) sa ilalim ng tulay
Kinain ng daga ang damo sa ilalim ng tulay (2x)
Kinain ng daga, kinain ng daga, kinain ng daga ang damo sa ilalim ng tulay.
Kinain ng ahas ang daga na kumain ng damo sa ilalim ng tulay (2x)
Kinain ng ahas, kinain ng ahas, kinain ng ahas ang daga, na kumain
ng damo sa ilalim ng tulay.
 Kinain ng uwak ang ahas na kumain ng daga na kumain ng damo sa ilalim
ng tulay (2x)
Kinain ng uwak, kinain ng uwak, kinain ng uwak ang ahas na kumain ng
daga na kumain ng damo sa ilalim ng tulay.
1. What are the organisms involve in the song?
2. Which organisms in the song are predators?
3. Which are the preys?

Students will be asked to choose their group. And will be given a TASK
C. EXPLORE CARD

Activity: Arrange Yourself!

1. the group will be provided by pictures of different organisms (snake,
grass, mouse, hawk) and picture of sun.
2. Each member will hold one picture.
3. The students will arrange themselves so they can form a food
chain
4. then perform a yell about their formed food chain.
Activity : Watch What you Eat
1. Fill in the boxes with the pictures/names of given organisms
2. Arrange them according to which organism is eaten by another
3. Make sure that the arrowheads of the arrows (which will be read as
“eaten by”) between each boxes is pointing to the eater.

Activity : Word Smart

1. Create a slogan about food chain
Activity: Singing BEE
1. Create a song about food chain

----PRESENTATION------

A ball with composed of question will be thrown and passed on. As the
D. EXPLAIN music stops. Student who holds the ball will answer the question.
1. Which is the producer in the food chain?
2. Which are the consumers?
3. Which organism provides energy to the mouse?
4. Which organism provides energy to the hawk?
5. Where does the plant obtain its energy?
6. How does the energy from the sun reach the snake?

1. Which is the first organism in your food chain?

2. Which is the producer in your food chain?
3. Based from the illustration, how will you define producer?
4. Which organisms are the consumers? Why are they called consumers?
5. Which organism is the first order consumer? What did the first order
consumer feed on?
6. Which was eaten by the second order consumer?
7. Which was eaten by the third order consumer?

 What you have formed is called food chain. How will you define food
E. ELABORATE chain?
 What composed the food chain?
 How do producers and consumers differ?
 Plant needs nutrients in order to grow and produce well. Plants should also
be protected from pests and diseases. To do these, farmers usually apply
chemical fertilizers to enrich and spray pesticides to kill harmful insects that
feed on plants.
What do you think will happen if human will eat food coming from sources
which have been heavily treated with chemicals like this?

What do you think will happen to the population of the worm if the number
of frog in the community increases? What will be its effect on the
population of snake? Depend your answer.

F. EVALUATE

The picture above shows that frog eats the worm and the frog is eaten by
the snake.
Will the snake acquire the total energy obtained by the plant from the sun?
Why?

1. Given with the following organisms: rabbit, lion, carrot, fox, construct
a food chain.

Producer 1st order 2nd order 3rd order

1. How does energy from the Sun reach the third-order consumer?
2. How many % of energy will transfer as the 1st order consumer feed
son the producer? 2nd order? Third order?
Create a model of energy pyramid. Choose organisms below. Indicate which
G. EXTEND organism will be the producer, 1st order consumer, 2nd order consumer, and
the third order consumer with their corresponding energy value.

owl corn grasshopper mouse

snakes giraffe grass lion
eagle beetle caterpillar sunflower
hawk leopard frog dragonfly
rabbit chicken mantis fox
