Hello, young learners! Welcome back to Basic 2 National Value Education. In our previous lesson, we learned about the importance of respecting our environment. Today, we’re going to learn about different Physical Environments.
Objectives
By the end of this lesson, you should be able to:
- Identify different physical environments.
- List 3 examples of physical environments.
Physical Environments
A physical environment refers to the place where living and non-living things exist.
There are different types of physical environments, such as:
- Deserts: These are hot, dry, and sandy areas. They often have very little rainfall and can be home to unique plants and animals that have adapted to survive in these harsh conditions. You can learn more about deserts by searching for “desert environments” on the internet.
- Forests: Forests are areas with lots of trees and receive plenty of rain. They are important for the environment because they provide oxygen, help to regulate the climate, and are home to a wide variety of plants and animals. You can learn more about forests by searching for “forest ecosystems” on the internet.
- Fertile Environments: Fertile environments are areas that are good for farming. They have rich soil and receive enough rainfall to support the growth of crops. These areas are important for providing food for people and animals. You can learn more about fertile environments by searching for “agricultural land” on the internet.
Evaluation Questions
Now that you’ve learned about physical environments, let’s see if you can answer these questions:
- What is a physical environment?
- Describe the characteristics of a desert.
- What are the characteristics of a forest?
- Why are fertile environments good for farming?
- Can you give examples of physical environments?
Conclusion
Today, we learned about different physical environments, such as deserts, forests, and fertile areas. We also learned about their characteristics and why they are important. Remember, it’s important to respect and protect all types of physical environments.
