Here are the criteria for judging. Please read.

4. Analysis (Presentation of Learners Output)

guide questions

Guide questions: 1. In what way is the sun beneficial to plants, animals and human? 2. What activities of people that need sun’s heat and light? 3. In what way is the sun’s heat useful to farmers? Fishermen? Criteria: Teamwork Discipline Delivery Content

– 5 points – 5 points – 5 points – 10 points 25 points

Answers: 1. All plants use sunlight to make food (sugars) in a process called photosynthesis. They store the food in their leaves and the energy flows to other animals that eat the leaves. When leaves fall, decomposers in the soil, work on it, with the help of moisture and heat from the sun. 2. Harvesting, hanging laundries on wire, drying of crops, photosynthesis, drying of fish and many more. 3. They can harvest crops and dry fish respectively.

5. Abstraction 

The teacher will present the video.

6. Generalization *Plants can make their own food through photosynthesis process. Likewise animals and humans need the sun’s heat and light energy in order to survive. With the presence of sunlight, human can do a lot of activities such as laundry, harvesting, drying of crops and fish and recreational activities like outing/picnics. Both farmers and fishermen use the sun’s heat in drying crops and fishes.
