Okay now listen, Let me define first what is a soil. So a soil is a natural body on the surface of the earth that is made up of minerals, organic matter, air and water. There are different types of soil. At the end of the lesson, the pupils are expected to: a. Recognize comprehensively the different types of soil through Soil Observation. b. Compare and contrast accurately the different types of soil through Venn Diagram c. Appreciate creatively the importance of different types of soil through poster making Look at here, I have 3 containers with a soil. With the same group earlier, I will give each group 1 container and I want you to write your observation on the chart that I will give. And choose 1 representative to report your observation. I will give you 2 minutes to this. At count of three, everybody form a circle. Get ready, 1 2 3 . Okay, When I say “Ready na, ready na” you say “Aha, Aha” And when I say “Aha, Aha” You say “Ready na, Ready na” Ready na, ready na Aha, Aha - Aha, aha - Ready na, ready na Your 2 minutes starts now. Your 2 minutes is over. Let us start with group 1. Kindly present your observation chart. Group 1 1. Physical Characterisctics Texture/ feel Observation 2. a. When wet b. When dry Color 1. Physical Characterisctics Texture/ feel 3. a. c. Color rough rough white Group 2 Thank you Group 1. Next Group 2. Observation When wet When dry Thank you. Group 2, and lastly group 3 Sticky and soft Hard, smooth brown Group 3 Physical Characterisctics Observation 1. Texture/ feel 4. a. When wet d. When dry Color Good Job, you did a great job. You deserve a kiss. Everybody kiss you head. C. Comparison and Abstraction Good job, Lets talk about the group 1 work. The soil in group one has a color of white and a rough texture. Also, the granules of this soil are loose. This kind of soil is sandy. Who among you here saw a sandy soil? Where can you find a sandy soil? - Me - Teacher - On the beach - Teacher - Sandy soil - Yes teacher - Yes teacher Yes Claire Very good, Claire sandy soil usually found on beaches or on the seashore. This type of soil is widely used in constructing buildings. It is not ideal to plant in sandy soil because it cannot hold water. Again, What do you call a soil that has a loose granules of rocks and has a rough texture? Yes Monica? Very good, Monica it is sandy soil. Let’s go to group 2, The soil in group 2 has a brown color and it soft and sticky when it is wet. But when dry it is hard and smooth, this soil is a clay. Have you seen a clay soil? soft soft Dark brown/black Very good but I will make myself clear to you it is not the clay that you buy on school supplies, the one you used to play with. This clay is used to create potteries. It is a great material to be used in potteries because when it is wet it is sticky and soft; it can hold the shape that form. Also, some plants can live on clay because it can hold more water that sandy soil. Again, what type of soil that is sticky and you can shape it in different forms? - Teacher - Clay teacher - No teacher - Yes Teacher - Teacher - In farm lands - teacher Yes Tiff? Very good, is there any questions so far? Did I make myself clear? Ok, lets continue with group 3, the soil in group 3 has a dark color and soft texture. This soil is a Loamy soil. Where can you usually see this type of soil? Yes Jasmine? Very good, Jasmine this soil is a very good soil in planting because this soil is composed of organic material and rich in oxygen. Plants that been planted in a loamy soil grow healthy. Let me see, What type of soil that has a dark color and it is good to grow plants wit it? Yes Gwen? - Loamy soil - Sandy soil, clay soil and loamy soil. - No teacher What is the difference between sandy and clay? - teacher Yes Bryan - The sandy soil is dry and cannot hold water while the clay is soft and can hold water. Also, you can form different shape with clay. Good job. How about the clay and Loamy? - Teacher Yes, Jerica - The loamy is a good soil you can grow plants with it because of richness in nutrients and oxygen while the clay can just hold water and only few plants can grow in clay. - Yes teacher - Clay teacher - Teacher - Loamy sol Very good, Gwen. Again What are the different types of soil? Good job. Is there any clarification? Very good. Wow! You are all smart. D. Generalization Let’s review one more time. What type of soil that holds a water for a long time and you can hold the shape that you form? Yes Angie Very good, Next what type of soil that is consider as healthy soil because its richness with nutrients and oxygen? Yes Esfer Very good, How about the soil that is dry and has loose granules of rocks. It is use mostly in construction? - teacher - Sandy soil - Teacher - Soil teacher - teacher - I think if we don’t have a soil then we don’t have a place to walk. - Aha, aha - Ready na, ready na Yes Joy Very good, Lastly, what is the natural body on the surface that serve as a medium for plants and land forms to grow? Yes Aileen? Good job. We can soil everywhere. God made them. But did you ever wonder? What do you think will happen if we don’t have soil? Yes Erika? Very good, Imagine yourself walking without soil. Also, imagine your surrounding without plants and trees. That is how soil is very important to us. A. Application Good job, Now, let’s have another game, I will give you an envelop with paper strips inside. Some paper strips have a word/sentence written on it and some have none. The word/sentence written are words that describe each type of soil. I want you to place the correct description on the correct column. Ready na, ready na Aha, Aha Okay, here’s your envelop. Let’s make it organize. Row 1 who among you has a paper strip with word or sentences? Please stand and place it on the correct column. Next row please prepare and so on. Let me check you work, Very good, All you answers are correct. E. Evaluation Write S for sandy, C for clay and L for loamy ______1. Hard and dry _____2. Healthy soil _____3. the different types of soil compare and contrast the characteristics of different types of soil;
