ROOM
Objectives must be met over the week and connected to the curriculum standards. To meet the objectives necessary
I. OBJECTIVES procedures must be followed and if needed additional lessons exercises and remedial activities maybe done for
developing content knowledge and competencies. These are assessed using formative assessment strategies. Valuing
objectives support the learning of content and competencies and enable children to find significance and joy in learning
the lessons. Weekly objectives shall be derived from the curriculum guides.
The learners demonstrate understanding of …
A. Content Standards
How evolution through natural selection can result in biodiversity.
B. Performance Standards The learners should be able to…
Write an essay on the importance of adaptation as a mechanism for the survival of
a species.
Learning Competency:
Explain how fossil records, comparative anatomy, and genetic information provide
evidence for evolution.
C. Learning Competencies/Objectives
Learning Objectives:
1. Draw and place the fossil organisms in its proper Era and period.
2. Determine the age of fossil.
Write the LC code for each S10LT-IIIf-39
Content is what the lesson is all about. It pertains to the subject matter that the teacher aims to teach in the CG. The
content can be tackled in a week or two.
a. Fossils are traces of organisms that lived in the past and were preserved by
natural process or catastrophic events.
b. Paleontologist is a person who studies fossils.
c. Fossils are evidences used by paleontologists to study evolution.
d. Most fossils are found in sedimentary rocks.
e. Impression is a type of fossil which leave an imprint of animal or plant tissues
with little or no organic materials present.
II. CONTENT f. Compression is a fossil in which there is a retain or with a present of
more organic material.
g. Paleontologists make initial estimates of the age of fossils through the
positions of the sedimentary rocks.
h. Relative dating is a method used to determine the age of the rocks by
comparing them with the rocks in the other layer.
i. Radiometric dating is another method used to determine the age of the rocks
using the decay of radioactive isotopes present in rocks.
j. Carbon dating is used to tell the age of organic materials.
List the materials to be used in different days. Valid sources of materials sustain children’s interest in the lesson and in
III. LEARNING RESOURCES learning. Ensure that there is a mix of concrete and manipulative materials as well as paper-based materials. Hands-on
learning promotes concept development

IV. PROCEDURES These steps should be done across the week. Spread out the activities appropriately so that students will learn well.
Always be guided by the demonstration of learning by the students which you can infer from formative assessment
activities. Sustain learning systematically by providing students by multiple ways to learn new things, practice their
learning, question their learning processes, and draw conclusion about what they learned in relation to their life
experiences and previous knowledge. Indicate time allotment for each step.
TEACHER’S ACTIVITY STUDENT’S ACTIVITY
A. Elicit Good morning my dear class! Good morning mam!
It was such a long vacation for all of us! I hope
you got the rest that you deserved. Let’s start this
week with positivity as we explore our new topic
for today.
The teacher will present the new lesson by
asking some questions to the students.
Do you have an idea why dinosaurs are no longer I think it is because of the natural
exists today? events that make the dinosaurs
extinct.
What kind of natural event it is?
One well-known event that I know
is when the asteroid hit the Earth.
Correct! It is one of the main catastrophic event
why dinosaurs are no longer exists today
together with the occurrence of volcanic eruption
which led to the change in Earth’s climate
happened in million years ago.
So with many changes happened, why do you Due to the changes happened,
think some animals before are very different from some animals are adjusting with
the animals we have now? the change in the environment.
Exactly! And this adjustments from a million years
ago results for some organisms to change their
body structures, traits, and abilities in order to fit
with the changing environment. This case is one
example of so called evolution.
Is evolution of life on Earth really takes place? If
yes, what do you think are the evidences used by
the paleontologists to demonstrate if evolution
really takes place?
To answer that, the teacher will give some pre-
assessment before continuing the discussion.
So now, to test if you have some knowledge The students will answer the pre-
about this topic, let’s have a 10-item pre-test. test correctly.
The teacher will give some minutes to the
students to answer the pre-test.
B. Engage After the conduct of pre-test, the teacher will The students will observe the
show to the class some images related to pictures presented by the teacher.
evolution by posting it on the board.
What are these pictures all about? The students will raise their hands.
The teacher will call a student to answer.
EVOLUTION
- evolution is the change in the
characteristics of a species over
several generations and relies on
the process of natural selection.
Examples:
Human Evolution
Whale Evolution
FOSSILS
- traces of organisms that lived in
the past and were preserved by
the natural processes or
catastrophic events.
GEOLOGIC TIME SCALE
- is a system used by scientists to
describe the timing and
relationships between events in
Earth's history.
C. Explore These images presented are related with what
we are focusing for today’s discussion.
So we are going to explore the sources of
evidence of evolution. There are four evidences
that the paleontologists used to study evolution
and one evidence is the fossil records which we
are going to discuss for today.
As we explore the different fossils, we are going
to determine the age or the proper Era and period
where the certain fossil belongs or exists.
To do that, I want you to work by pair and answer The students will work by pair to
this activity. accomplish the activity.
Activity 1A: Where do I belong?

probable age of the fossil?
Q2. In what era can you possibly find the most
recent fossil? Why do you say so?

answer.
Q4. When do you think did the present day

students will also answer the guide
questions.

Q7. Why is it important to know the age of the
fossil?
D. Explain After the activity worked by the students, the The students will participate with

lesson.
E. Elaborate To develop mastery regarding the lesson, the
teacher will let the students have their takeaways
and realization for further absorption of
knowledge.
Now that we’re done with our discussion and Yes, since our world is consistently
activity, do you think evolution can still be changing from the gradual change
possible nowadays? Why or why not? of Earth’s climate, different
catastrophic events happened, it is
really possible to have an evolution
not only in animals and plants but
also in humans especially it is
normal for us to have a some kind
of mutation.
Exactly! A million years pass by, evolution was
being visible even to us humans since it is
possible for us to have a change in genetic
structure just like what your classmate said. So
what do you think is the purpose of evolution of
organism? Any idea? The evolution of one organism is
for survival purposes since the
change on their structures, traits,
and abilities allowed them to adapt
on their consistent changing
environment.
Such a good answer! Now, I assume that you
already mastered this topic.
F. Evaluate
To evaluate their learning, the teacher will give a The students will answer the short
short quiz to the students. quiz accurately.
