Materials Prepared IMS Pictures Flashcards Projector Laptop Speaker Educational Videos III. Procedure A. Greetings Say: Good Morning class! I hope that you are all well today. B. Prayer The teacher will call someone from the class to lead the prayer. Say: __________ please lead the prayer. C. Preparation The teacher will prepare all the materials he/she will need, while the students are fixing their seating arrangement. Say: Okay class, before we start our discussion for today, first please clean up the floor, pick up all the scattered papers and other garbage that are scattered, and please arrange all your chairs. Class: Good Morning teacher! The students will clean their room and arrange their chairs. D. Review The teacher will call someone to recall what was the lesson last meeting all about. Say: Thank you _______. So today, we will move to our new lesson. And we will start it with these questions. E. Setting the Stage The questions will be flashed on the screen using the projector, and the teacher will read all aloud. Say: Have you been to a museum? Have you seen a bone that was dig up from the ground? And wonder how long it had been there? And thought of what specie or animal does it belong? F. Explaining the students what to do? Say: We are going to play a game called “Plus-Minus-Words”. In this game I will showing you flashcards with pictures, and letters to be added or subtracted from the word that the picture shows. From the words we will be able to form, we will find out its relation and meaning throughout our discussion. G. Modeling for the students The teacher will show the example flashcard with the class and answer it. + ol + + + n Answer: ISOLATION H. Game proper The teacher will pick up 6 students randomly and group them into two. In each group, the teacher will show 3 flashcards to be answered. The student will recall the past lesson. The students will answer the questions within themselves. Group 1 e + + u + + n the parent’s form. Genes are the determinants of those characteristics and the processes of growth through mutation. A dark-skinned child could be born from fair- skinned parents. Natural Selection According to Darwin, the environment has much to do with this process. For instance, because a dark-skinned individual can easily survive in a hot tropical climate, naturally, this environment will produce group of dark-skinned people. The same thing or process happens in some other places, thus producing different races of man. Isolation and Adaptation As man lived in isolation for long period of time, chances are, he adapted himself to that area resulting to a noticeable amount of physical change. Say: So those were the process that Charles Darwin thought that humans went through which resulted for their biological features to changed or evolved over a long period of time. Do you have any questions or clarifications? Say: Now, let us see what are the changes that have happened on the features of man, which we called the evolution of man, through a group activity. J. Group Activity Say: In this activity, I will be giving each group a picture of a human which existed during a specific period. Each stage of human evolution has distinct features, and what you will do is to describe the man on the picture. Now group yourselves into 8. Say: Now you may start, and after 7 minutes each group will present their work in the class. Each group should have a presenter. Students: No ma’am/sir. The students will group themselves into 8 by counting, then the teacher will give each group a picture of a stage of man. During the presentation of each group the teacher will give additional information on each stage. Dryopithecus Believed to be ancestors of both living ape and man due to its dental patterns; found 14 million—20 million years ago. Ramapithecus More advanced primate found in the Siwalik Hills of Northern India; had adopted an upright posture and can use his front limbs for simple tasks. Australopithecus africanus Found in Taung South Africa; first member of the homo group. His brain was not as large as the modern man; he can walk on two legs and is up to 4-5 ft tall. His tools include sharp pebbles and stones. Homo habilis Found in Olduvai Gorge, Tanzania in East Africa; had a brain size of 760 cu cm, with dentures that are more human; regarded as the ancestors of Homo erectus Homo erectus Known as the “upright man” with 1,200 cc of brain with developed jaws and facial structure. Examples of these are the Java man, called Pithecanthropus erectus, discovered by Eugene Dubois in 1892; the Peking man called Sinanthropus pekinesis Dryopithecus -body is covered with fur -look like an ape -its hands and feet are similar to monkeys Ramapithecus -its posture is more upright than monkeys -its body is covered with fur but its chest is mostly not covered -it has the same features of an ape Australopithecus Africanus -has a straight posture -its fur is prominent in few areas of the body -its features are the same with apes Homo habilis -it is larger or taller Than a usual ape -its fur is shorter than The apes -the facial bone Structure is different From apes -can stand up straight -can walk with its feet Homo erectus -has an erect posture -lesser hair on the body -the facial bone structure is Slightly different from apes discovered in 1926; has a significant increase in height (157 cm). Homo sapiens Found in Europe, Africa, and West Asia; skulls similar with man; had more sophisticated tools flattened surface and fine edges. Neanderthal Man A type of Homo sapiens; flourished in Europe, Asia, and Africa; appeared during the glacial stage in Europe. Homo sapiens sapiens Fully developed Homo sapiens found in Europe, Asia, and Africa. By this stage, man had been using different raw materials like bones, wood, scrapping tools and double- edged tools. Say: Good job class, you are all great. All of you were able to describe each stage. Let’s give everyone a good job clap. K. Discussion Before the teacher proceed to the next main topic of today’s lesson, he/she will project a short film or video on the screen. Teacher: Okay class, now that we are done with the first topic, we already know the changes that happened of the human in the biological aspect let us now move on to the evolution of their culture. But before that, I will show you a short film about the life of early human beings. Homo sapiens -more human like facial feature -straight posture -the body is not cover with Many hair Neanderthal Man -taller than apes -human-like -the hair is more dominant on the head Homo sapiens sapiens -body not covered with long hairs -more muscular -tall -look likes the modern human ALL: (Clap 3x) Good job! (Clap 3x) Good job! (Clap 3x) Good job! food sources. Farming provided a steady source of food. At this stage: 1. Man learned to polish his tools to a fine edge and sharp points 2. Man discovered the importance of settling down in villages, domesticating animals, and planting their own food. Agriculture actually became the greatest discovery of man. 3. Man settled in permanent homes. More people lived together and formed communities which led to the formation of rules to act as social control. It created the first organization governments. The transition from hunting and gathering to farming and herding took place in many parts of the world. Jarmo in West Asia now Iraq, and Catal Hayuk, now Turkey, were good examples of the early village settlements. Jericho was the oldest city ever discovered. And that’s where our discussion end. Are there any questions or clarifications? Was it crystal clear? L. Independent Practice The teacher will ask the students to get a piece of paper and answer the exercise 1. Identify the following. Choose the answers from the box. 1. These are the scientists who study the earth’s crust. Students: None ma’am/sir! Students: Crystal clear! Geologist Archeologists Archeologists Evolution theory Artifacts gene Culture geologist Technology mutation Neolithic Age Paleolithic Age Anthropologist 2. These are scientist who re-create a picture study of prehistoric men through artifacts. 3. This refers to a group’s skill in using tools. 4. The theory that proved that man is a product of a long period of time. 5. This is the so-called Old Stone Age. 6. This refers to the New Stone Age. 7. It is the occurrence of some changes in form due to changes in the structure of a gene. 8. It determines the physical appearance different from that of the parent’s form. 9. It refers to the remains made by man. 10. It refers to the way of life of people. M. Closure/Assessment ➢ Charles Darwin’s Theory of Evolution stressed that man and all the other species on earth were products of a long process of evolution. ➢ Archeological findings showed that man passed through periods of the Paleolithic Age and Neolithic Age. ➢ The earliest men appeared during the Stone Ages and lived through hunting, gathering, and making use of crude tools. ➢ The Neolithic Age ushered in a new way of life for man. Farming and herding made him settle in permanent home and thus, form communities. Technology Evolution theory Paleolitic Age Neolithic Age Mutation Gene Artifacts Culture IV.
