B. Development LESSON
(Pagpapaunlad)
Soil is a very important natural resource on earth made up of tiny
particles of rocks and decayed plants and animals.
Since this is a natural resource this can be categorized into different
soil types, each with distinct physical characteristics that provide
growing benefits.
Soil can be categorized into sand, clay, silt, peat, chalk and loam
types of soil based on the dominating size of the particles within a
soil. Let us take a look at the pictures below. Observe each picture.
Describe it. What have you notice with the characteristics of the soil?
The first picture is sandy soil. As you can see in the picture, sandy
soils contains high proportion of sand and little clay (clay weighs
more than sand). The other picture is clay, this type of soil is heavy
that benefits from high nutrients. Clay soils remain wet and cold in
winter and dry out in summer.
Take a look with the pictures below. Observe and tell how each type
of soil differ from each other.
The picture shows loam and peat soil. Loam soil is a mixture of
sand, silt and clay that are combined to avoid the negative effects of
each type.These soils are fertile, easy to work with and provide good
drainage. Depending on their predominant composition they can be
either sandy or clay loam.
While peat soil is high in organic matter and retains a large amount
of moisture.This type of soil is very rarely found in a garden and
often imported into a garden to provide an optimum soil base for
planting.
Let’s have another type of soil. Look at the pictures below. What can
you say about these types of soil? Do you think they have the same
characteristics?
As you can see in the pictures the given types of soil have different
characteristics. It is because silt soil is a light and moisture retentive
soil type with a high fertility rating.As silt soils compromise of
medium sized particles they are well drained and hold moisture well.
While chalk soil is can be either light or heavy but always highly
alkaline due to the calcium carbonate or lime within its structure.
Since these types of soil has their own characteristics meaning they
have their own ability to sustain the life of living things. Some of
these types of soil are good for planting while others are not.
ACTIVITY
For us to learn more about soil and their physical characteristics let’s
do the following activities. Let’s start with Activity 1 “DO YOU
KNOW ME?” Do the activity alone and with honesty.
ACTIVITY 1 “DO YOU KNOW ME?”
Direction: Identify the types of soil being described.
C. Engagement
(Pagpapalihan) ______1. A type of soil which is high in organic matter and retains a
large amount of moisture.
______2. It contains high proportion of sand and little clay.
______3. A soil which is a mixture of sand, silt and clay that are
combined to avoid the negative effects of each type.
______4. It can be either light or heavy but always highly alkaline
due to the calcium carbonate or lime within its structure.
______5. A type of soil which is heavy that benefits from high
nutrients
Let’s have another activity. Look at the pictures below. Those are
images of the different types of soil.
ACTIVITY 2 “KNOW ME BETTER”
Direction: Observe the pictures and tell the kind of soil that you can
see in the pictures.
ACTIVITY 3 “MATCH ME”

ANALYSIS
Direction: Match the type of soil in column A. with their
characteristics in column B.
Column A Column B
1.loam soil a. contains high proportion of sand
and little clay
2.peat b. light and moisture retentive soil
3.clay c. fertile, easy to work with
4.sand d. heavy that benefits from high
nutrients
5.silt e. very rarely found in a garden
WRAP–UP
ABSTARCTION
To summarize what you have learned, let us do the activity. Write
True if the statement is correct and False if it is wrong.
1.Soil is not a natural resource.
2.Loam soil is one of the type of soil which is good for planting.
3.Soil has only two (2) types.
4. Chalk soil is highly alkaline due to calcium carbonate.
5. Peat soil is not high in organic matter.
D. Assimilation VALUING
(Paglalapat) Take a look at the picture below. What does the picture show? Is soil
plays a great role in our life? Why soil is important?
The soil is important to all living things on earth because it is the

source of four essential ‘living’ factors, namely, food, clothes, shelter
and medicine, all of which either directly or indirectly coming from
the soil. For plants, the soil is very important to their growth and
yield. In our present situation, COVID-19 pandemic people should
plant vegetables in their backyard , what kind of soil is best for
growing vegetables ?
