The document is a lesson plan for a Grade 3 science class on water forms, with the objective that 75% of pupils can identify various water forms such as groundwater, springs, lakes, rivers, waterfalls, seas, and oceans. It includes a detailed procedure for the lesson, incorporating activities like flashcard drills, a fishing game with music, and group puzzles, along with an evaluation section for pupils. The lesson emphasizes the importance of water forms to the ecosystem and encourages caring for these resources.

2. I. Objectives: At the end of the lesson, 75% of the Grade 3 pupils will be able to:
a. identify the different waterforms
II. Subject Matter: Waterforms
Reference:Science for Active Learning 3, Rosalyn R. Manio © 2014, pages 310-314
Concept: Earth has different waterforms that form its hydrosphere; Theseincludes:
 Groundwater, it may be found in a deep or shallow part of the ground.
 Spring, a water that comes from underground and returns to surface.
 Lake and Pond, a body of water surrounded by land.
 River,a flowing body of water.
 Waterfall, water that rushes down a mountain and falls off.
 Sea,is a large body of water. It meets the mouth of a river.
 Ocean,a body of saltwater. It is the largest body of water.
Value Focus:
 Take care of the different waterforms because they are sources of food and energy.
III. Materials:Pictures,puzzle, song, cut-out materials, stick and cartolina.
IV. Procedure:
