A Semi-Detailed Lesson Plan in Science 3
I. Objectives
At the end of the lesson pupils will be able to;
a. differentiate vertebrate and invertebrate animals, (S3LT-IIc-d-3)
b. volunteer in answering questions about the topic; and
c. value the importance of vertebrate and invertebrate animals in our environment
through observation.
II. Subject matter
Topic: Classification of Animals
Reference: K-12 Curriculum guide
Values integration: Voluntarism and Active participation
Material: Flat screen tv, Power point presentation, Cut-out pictures
III. Learning procedure
A. Preliminary activity
1. Review
Anyone from the class, what was our topic last meeting?
What did you learn from our discussion?
2. Motivation
Let’s play a guessing game.
“Guess the animals in the pictures”
What do you see in the picture?

Does it have a bone?
What does it do, can it fly or swim?
B. Developmental activity
a. Presentation
Classification of animals, it means grouping animals according to
similarity. Classification of animals, covers the animal kingdom
wherein, they are classified as vertebrate and invertebrate animals.
1. Vertebrate Animals
-An animal that has a backbone and skeleton.
Subgroup of Vertebrate Animals
a. Mammals - warm blooded animals, with fur or hair. They live
on land and water.
Examples: lion, dog, dolphin.
Does every mammal have four limbs/legs?
b. Birds – warm blooded animals, with wings, feathers, beaks
and two legs. They live on land and air.
Examples: penguin, chicken, eagle.
Does every bird fly?
c. Reptiles - cold blooded animals, that has scales instead of
fur or feathers. They live on both land and water.
Examples: crocodile, turtle, snake.
d. Amphibians - cold blooded animals, that don’t have scales
but they have moist or smooth skin. They live on land and
water.
Examples: frogs, newts, salamanders.
e. Fish - cold blooded animals, that has gills but lack limbs.
They live in water.
Examples: shark, gold fish, swordfish.
What are the similarities and differences of vertebrate
animals?
What type of vertebrate animals, lay eggs and give live
births?
2. Invertebrate Animals
-animals without backbone or bony skeleton.
Subgroup of invertebrate animals
a. Cnidarias – are soft-bodied stinging animals that live in water.
Examples: corals, jellyfish, sea anemone.
b. Echinoderms – are group of animals that live in on the ocean
floor. They have spiny, and bumpy skins.
Examples: starfish, sea cucumber, sea urchin.
c. Mollusks – are animals that has a soft body, and some are
covered with shells.
Examples: snail, octopus, squid.
d. Annelids – are animals that has a soft body, no legs, and no
shell. Also called as segmented worms.
Example: earthworm, leeches, ragworm.
e. Arthropods - animals that have a hard-outer shell. Includes
arachnids and insects.
Examples: cockroach, crabs, spiders.
What is the difference between arachnids and insects?
What is the difference between vertebrate and invertebrate
animals? What can you say about the size?
b. Application
Divide the class into two groups and distribute the cut-out pictures in
each group.
Place the cut-outs in their corresponding column or classification.
Vertebrate Animals Invertebrate Animals

C. Generalization
What was our topic for today?
What are the two classifications of animals that we discuss?
How many subgroups of invertebrate and vertebrate animals did we discuss?
IV. Evaluation
A. Read and answer. Write T if the statement is true and F if the statement is false.
1. Vertebrate animals are animals that has a backbone and skeleton.
2. Classification of animals, covers the animal kingdom.
3. Mammals are animals with gills and can breathe under water.
4. Invertebrate animals are animals without backbone or bony skeleton.
B. Write three (3) subgroups/types of vertebrate and invertebrate animals.
Vertebrate animal subgroups:
1.
2.
3.
Invertebrate animal subgroups:
1.
2.
3.
V. Assignment
Write examples of vertebrate and invertebrate animals, two (2) examples each
subgroup. Write it in your notebook.
