LESSON/TOPIC:
Living and Non-living Things
Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the learners will be able to:
- Grade 2: Identify living and non-living things in the environment with 80% accuracy.
- Grade 3: Classify objects as living or non-living and explain at least 2 characteristics of
each with 80% accuracy.
- Grade 4: Compare and contrast living and non-living things using a Venn diagram and
present findings with 90% accuracy and participation.
Motivation:
Activity: “Living or Not?”
The teacher will show real objects or flashcards (e.g., dog, ball, flower, chair). Learners will
clap once if the item is living, and stomp once if it is non-living. This quick activity will
stimulate interest and activate prior knowledge.
Lesson Proper:
1. Introduction/Discussion (10 minutes)
- Teacher discusses the characteristics of living things (movement, growth, reproduction,
response to stimuli, breathing, etc.).
- Visual aids will be used for better understanding.
Assessment:
- Grade 2: Picture quiz – Color only the living things.
- Grade 3: Matching type – Match objects to their correct category and explain why.
- Grade 4: Group presentation – Use rubric to assess content, clarity, and participation.
Sample Questions:
- What makes a dog a living thing?
- Can a rock move or grow? Why is it non-living?
- How are living and non-living things similar or different?
Assignment:
- Grade 2: Draw 3 living and 3 non-living things found at home. Label them.
- Grade 3: Write a short paragraph comparing a real plant to a plastic one.
- Grade 4: Interview a family member. List 5 living and 5 non-living things they see daily and
state how they differ.
