Yes, Richard! Ma’am, as an addition to the recap given by

Daniel. The statements that neither qualify as

Very good, Richard. That was an impressive

supplement. Keep it up!

A.4. Presentation of the Learning Objectives

A.5. Motivational Activity

Teacher’s Activity Students’ Activity

Class, before we start with our discussion, I
would like to give you the objectives of our
lesson, which you are expected to attain at the
end of our discussion.

John Lloyd will you read the objectives. At the end of the discussion of the lesson, we
are will be able to:

a. Analyze and identify the cause and

effect relationship of a given
situation;
b. Respond and participate actively
during the discussion; and
c. Present a role play of an event
showing a cause and effect
relationship.

Okay, class. Are the objectives of our lesson Yes, Ma’am.

clear?

Now, I would like you to read and analyze

this paragraph:

“Global warming is one of the most alarming

environmental issues experienced by the
international community. It is caused by (Students read the paragraph silently.)
greenhouse gases that are trapped in the

[2]
earth’s atmosphere resulting to the unusual
rise of the heat level in the earth’s surface.
One action made by the international
community over two decades ago is to
regulate the use of chlorofluorocarbons which
is one reason why the ozone layer that traps
the ultraviolet rays from the sun is depleting.
At the present time, the earth’s ozone layer in
the Antarctic is currently recuperating
because of the interventions made by world
leaders. Scientists also predicted that the
ozone layer will totally heal itself in the next
20-50 years if all efforts will be sustained. If
we will work together hand in hand in battling
global warming, then we will be able to solve
the problem.”

What is the paragraph all about? Yes, Luis. Ma’am, the paragraph is about global
warming being one of the most alarming
environmental issues faced by the
international community.

Very good, Luis! What is/are the main point/s Ma’am, the main point/s of the paragraph,
of the paragraph? Yes, Toni. is/are the causes and effects of global
warming, and what the world leaders do to
solve the problem.

What are the causes and effects of global Ma’am, global warming is caused by
warming? Yes, Billy. greenhouse gases that are trapped in the
atmosphere and the CFC’s that depletes the
ozone layer that traps the UV rays from the
sun. global warming leads to unusual weather
patterns or rise in the temperature of the earth.

What about the effects of the intervention of Ma’am, because of the interventions of world
world leaders and the sustenance of all efforts leaders, the ozone layer is currently
to fight global warming? Yes, Tom. recuperating, and if all efforts will be
sustained. The ozone layer will totally heal in
the next 20-50 years.

That is impressive, Tom!

Now, as students and concerned individuals, Ma’am, I show my love to our nature and
how are you showing your love and concern concern to our environment in my own simple
for our nature and environment? Yes, Eula. ways by disposing my trash properly in the
garbage, and by practicing waste segregation
at home.

Eula, your initiative would actually mean a

lot.

What about the others? Yes, Sarah. Ma’am, I am recycling materials that can be
recycled, and limiting the use of plastics
which can be harmful to our environment if

[3]
 not properly disposed.

Very good, Sarah.

Is there anybody else who would like to share Ma’am, I show my love for nature and
how he/she shows love for our nature and for concern for environment, by not burning
our environment? Yes, JC. garbage. Since burning of wastes can also
contribute to global warming.

Very good, class! It really shows that you

have a genuine love and concern for our
nature and environment.

But let me emphasize that this battle against

global warming is a shared responsibility
among all of us. Everyone should have the
self-initiative to make change among
ourselves. We have to work hand in hand in
order to save our environment and preserve
our mother nature. Because, if we will
continue to shamelessly abuse our mother
nature and our environment, we will all suffer
the consequences in the end.

Do you understand class? Yes, Ma’am.

Very good, class.

We must always remember that all causes Yes, Ma’am.

have corresponding effects. And this is what
we are going to discuss for today, and I hope
that you will have a good grasp of our lesson

B. Developmental Activity

B.1. Discussion Proper

Okay, class. Let me show you an e-learning Yes, Ma’am.
material about our lesson for today. I would
like you to watch and pay attention carefully
as I play the video clip. I will be asking you to
answer the guide questions at the end of the
video. Is that clear class?

From what you have watched, how is cause Ma’am, cause is the reason why something
defined? happened. Cause happens first, but does not
always come first in the sentence.

[4]
What about the definition of effect? Ma’am, effect is what happened as a result of
a particular cause.

How about the different word markers that Ma’am, to determine or find cause and effect
signify cause and effect relationship? relationship in texts words o such as because,
since, so, if, then, before, after should be
noted.

What are some examples of cause and effect

relationship given in the e-learning material? “Angela was happy because she got to eat
cake for dessert!”

“Buster saw a UFO in the air and then he

started screaming.”

“Before Steven can get his allowance, he has

And what are the things that you must Ma’am, the things to remember are:
remember about cause and effect
relationship? First, cause is why something happened and
the effect is what happened.

Second, cause happens first, but does not

come first in sentences and texts.

And lastly, look for the cause and effect

markers such as because, since, so, if, then,
before and after to help identify the cause and
effects in sentences and texts.

Perfect!
