3

Ang mga nakatalang mga yaman sa grapiko ay ilan lamang sa mga likas na yaman ng bansa. Tingnan mo ang mga larawan sa ibaba.

Ito ang yamang gubat. Ang yamang gubat ay isa pa ring mahalagang likas na yaman. Maraming dolyar ang naipapasok ng mga produkto mula sa kagubatan tulad ng troso, kahoy, dagta o katas na ginagamit na panangkap sa mga gamot, pabango, pomada at langis ng buhok. May mga matataas na uri ng kahoy ng bansa katulad ng nara, apitong, kamagong, ipil, lawan, yakal at tindalo na bantog sa ibang bansa. Malaki rin ang nagagawa ng mga gubat sa pagsugpo sa baha at paghadlang sa malakas na hangin. Sinisipsip ng mga ugat ng mga puno sa gubat ang tubig-ulan kaya hindi ito umaagos sa mga kapatagan. Sa gayon naiiwasan ang pagbaha.

4

Sa panrehiyong lawak ng kagubatan, ang Palawan ang may pinakamataas na bahagdan ng kagubatan. Pumapangalawa ang Mindanao at ang Visayas ang may pinakamaliit. May mga mahuhusay na uri ng kahoy sa kagubatan. Ito ang dipterocarp. Ang mga halimbawa nito ay ang tangile, apitong, lawan, yakal, guijo at manggachapui.

Sumunod ang Punong Molave. Ito ay matatagpuan sa kanlurang bahagi ng Pilipinas. Kabilang sa pamilya nito ang nara, tindalo, dao at ipil. Ginagamit ito sa paggawa ng mga cabinet at iba pang kasangkapan.

5

Ang Pine ay matatagpuan sa Hilagang Luzon at Mindoro. Ang dalawang mahalagang uri nito ay ang pino at tapulaw. Ginagamit ito sa pagpapatayo ng bahay at sa pagmimina sa Lalawigang Bulubundukin.

Ginagamit ito sa mga magagaang na konstruksyon bilang panggatong, at sa paggawa ng uling. Sa ibang lugar ang nipa na dahon ng sasa ay ginagamit na pambubong at sa ibang pagkakataon naman ay ginagawang tuba na isang uri ng maiinom.

6

Ano ang naitutulong ng yamang gubat sa kabuhayan ng mga mamamayan? Ano ang nagagawang tulong ng yamang kagubatan sa pamumuhay ng bawat tao? Anu-ano ang mga uri ng punongkahoy na matatagpuan sa kagubatan? Tingnan mo naman sa larawan sa ibaba ang mga yaman ng tubig.

Biniyayaan ang ating bansa ng saganang pinagkukunan ng tubig. Nagmumula ang mga pang-ibabaw na tubig sa mga ilog, batis at look. Ang masaganang pang-ilalim ng lupang tubig ang tumutustos sa pangangailangan sa tubig ng mga tahanan at higit sa lahat, ng mga pook rural. Matatagpuan sa mga ilog, lawa, dagat at sapa ng Pilipinas ang iba’t-ibang uri ng isda, perlas kabibe at iba pang pagkaing dagat. Ang pinakamalaking isda ang tinatawag na balyenang pating o pating bulik at ang pinakamaliit na isda naman sa daigdig ay Pandaca Pygmea. Matatagpuan ito sa Lawa ng Buhi, Camarines Sur. Ang pangunahing pagkain ng mga Pilipino ay kanin at isda. Pinagkikitaan ito ng mga Pilipinong naninirahan sa mga baybaying pampangisdaan tulad ng Estancia, Iloilo, Orani, Bataan, Binangonan, Rizal at Navotas, Metro Manila.

7

Ang mga suso at kabibe naman ay matatagpuan sa mga dagat at lawa na bukod sa nakakain ay ginagawa ring mga palamuti sa katawan tulad ng kuwintas, pulseras at hikaw.

Saan-saang anyong tubig matatagpuan ang iba’t-ibang uri ng isda? Ano ang pinakamaliit na isda sa daigdig? Saan ito matatagpuan? Anu-ano ang pangunahing pagkain ng mga Pilipino?

Ang mga larawan sa itaas ay mga halimbawa ng Yamang mineral. Isa ang Pilipinas sa mga bansang mayaman sa pinagkukunan ng mineral. May dalawang uri ang yamang mineral – Metal at Di-Metal. Ang mga metal na mineral ay chromite, tanso, ginto, bakal, lead, manganese, mercury, tingga at zinc. Binubuo naman ng asbestos, barite, hilaw na material para sa semento, luwad, carbon feldspar, guano, gypsum, apog, marmol, sulpur, petroleum, natural gas at buhanging silica ang mga di-metal na yamang mineral ng bansa. Alam mo ba na ang Pilipinas ay isa sa sampung nangungunang prodyuser ng ginto at chromite. Ang pinakamalaking deposito ng Nikel ay nasa pulo naman ng Nonoc, Surigao. Ang may pinakamalaking deposito ng chromite ay matatagpuan sa Zambales. Kung marmol naman ay nasa Romblon, at ang guano ay matatagpuan sa mga yungib sa Cotabato, Zambales, Palawan at Cebu. Noong 1993, may natagpuan deposito ng natural gas sa Maguindanao na kapag nalinang nang mabuti ay maaring makatustos ng enerhiya ng Mindanao.

8

Anong uri ng metal kilala sa pagkakaroon ng napalaking deposito sa Pilipinas? Anu-ano ang dalawang uri ng Yamang Mineral? Saan matatagpuan ang malaking deposito ng ginto at pilak? Kayamanan din ba ito ng Pilipinas? Bakit?

Ito naman ang yamang lupa. Isa sa pinakamahalagang mga likas na yaman ng bansa ang malawak na lupa. Batayan ito na kaulanarang pambansa. Dito nakasalalay ang buhay ng tao, mga halaman at hayop. Sa kabuuang lawak ng lupain ng Pilipinas na tinatayang umaabot sa 300,000 kilometro kwadrado, 28.3 bahagdan nito ang binubuo ng mga sakahan. Bukod sa mga lupang pansakahan ng bansa, may mga lupa ring pangkomersiyo, pantirahan, pampalaruan at panlibangan. Maraming uri ng pananim ang pinatutubo rito na kadalasay nagbibigay ng masaganang ani dahil sa matabang lupa at magandang klima. Hindi lamang ang kapatagan ang ginagamit na taniman ng mga magsasaka. Ang mga gilid ng bundok ay tinataniman din tulad ng Hagdan-hagdang palayan ng Ifugao, mga Talampas ng Bukidnon at Batangas. May pakinabang din tayo sa mga lupang malapit sa ilog na may matabang lupa at mga lambak tulad ng Lambak Trinidad sa Benguet.

...your parents raise your babies. Even news outlets that are supposed to be legitimate and unbiased are telling only one side of the news to fill a political agenda. Politics are sugar coated and ignored on some networks, or completely farfetched from reality for political gain and control from one party or another. Media writers can put their own agenda and emotion into any piece they report on to give a one sided view of any subject. It is hard to know what is fact or opinion anymore with so many resources out there. Many things on the internet are also untrue, for example history books in public schools are being rewritten with “facts” that were never taught to us, a rewriting of history to fill some modern liberal agenda. I believe that the media is biased and hates anyone or organization that represents morality and especially if Christianity is in any way linked with it. You have to know your history,...

...children study history? There is no doubt that the primary purpose of schooling is to prepare students to function effectively in the world, and thereby to assist society to function effectively as well. We study the past in school not because students need to know a collection of old facts, but because history helps them understand how the world works and how human beings behave. Knowledge of the past is required for understanding present realities. When people share some common knowledge of history, they can discuss their understandings with one another. What does history give?Human self-awareness is the very essence of history. Arnold Toynbee said, “History is a search for light on the nature and destiny of man.” R.G. Collingwood wrote, “History is for human self-knowledge…the only clue to what man can do is what man has done. The value of history, then, is that it teaches us what man has done and thus what man is. Psychologist Bruno Bettleheim asserted that human self-knowledge is the most important role of education.” Most of all, our schools ought to teach the true nature of man, teach about his troubles with himself, his inner turmoil and about his difficulties in living with others. They should teach the prevalence and the power of both man’s social and asocial tendencies, and how the one can domesticate the other, without destroying his independence or self-love.” Read more: http://socyberty.com/education/teaching-history-is-important/#ixzz21GQnYhj0 Why history in the elementary...

...That history contains errors, will not come as news to a person who has reflected on the topic. The very first history, a Greek one, History of Herodotus, written around 450 BC, likely had quite a number of fictional details so as to effect its purpose.1 Those parts of our history which are suspected to be fiction are, at least, through research and comparison, salvageable. What, however, is possibly more disturbing than the realization that, in general and throughout, our history is wrong (a sub-topic which I shall treat to a greater extent further on, herein) is the realization that there are great gaps in it. We have failed to record and gather together the little human events which make up the fabric of history: it is little events, strung together and accumulated over time, which account for our place in history. Though it may have been, in certain of its parts, reconstructed incorrectly and small shards are missing here and there, history, by a well-read and descriptive author, like a Grecian urn, is a spectacle to behold; like man himself -- fascinating, seductive, intriguing, and spectacular. Maybe most are like me, I enjoy observing, at a safe distance, the follies and misfortunes2 of my fellow men. An author of history must adopt a method to gratify the natural curiosity that most of us have about the bloody events of times past. History, like all literature, must be written in a lively and descriptive manner. This is necessary, so to grip and hold the reader, in...

Describe your search for these materials and what you learnt from the exercise. 2 Question 1 Historians inevitably encounter some issues when using historical evidence. From finding sources and discerning fact from fiction to interpreting sources and placing them in historical context, the historian’s search for adequate sources is often not a simple one and can be fraught with pitfalls and issues that the historian must overcome. The choice of topic is an immediate issue facing an historian. The possibilities are endless as any part of history is an option for research. Issues when choosing a topic a both professional and personal, will there be sufficient sources on the chosen topic and where can they be located? Is the topic relevant? The personal opinions of a historian come into play when choosing their topic, do they agree with what they will be researching? Do they like topic? Questions such as these must be asked by the historian before undertaking certain work. The opinion of the historian brings another important issue. A strong opinion can easily affect ones work.

(If you are not sure, think about what historians do when examining or writing a historical work, when evaluating and critiquing the works of other historians, and when teaching people about history – at any level of the educational system. After making a detailed list of skills that are involved in the study of History as an academic discipline, briefly discuss the potential usefulness of these skills for other professions and/or in our everyday lives. This will help you to see how the academic study of History is useful as part of our general education.) Investigative Research Communication Patience Writing Commitment History is the ultimate puzzle. Mastering the skills developed through studying history gives you the ability to discern fact from fiction and reality from myth. It makes you more able to document an event with better accuracy. In Science, this can help you reach a desired solution or result by depicting the outcome of trials and tests with better understanding. In everyday life you will be more critical of events as they are told or received initially by you. You will look for ways to justify or corroborate facts/ events presented to you. I think you will become less likely to fill in the spaces and more likely to pursue proof to validate the event and to better separate fact from fiction for yourself. 2.

Intersectionality In History

...To understand problems in today’s society, one must possess an understanding of the history of social movements that have led us to our current standing in time. History is meaningful and relevant from a psychological perspective because it allows us to understand how dynamics between social groups have developed over time, and this understanding can also be useful in the application of public policy (Perlman, Hunter, & Stewart, 2015). However, just because a historical event or social movement may transform policy, it doesn’t necessarily shift individual attitudes. Perpetrators and victims of historical injustice often view events differently because they have different incentives for acknowledging the past. People who benefit from inequality tend to distance themselves and blame the victims, while the victims attempt to preserve memories of past atrocities (Perlman et al., 2015)....

Meaning of History

...The Meaning of History Student’s Name University Affiliation MEANING OF HISTORY The term history combines a number of terminologies for it to have a meaning. It therefore refers to a systematic account of natural phenomena involving accounts of events that are narrated in a chronological order and deal with past of mankind. History can also be defined as the dialogues that relates the present with the past. Evolution of mankind sometimes defines the word history. It explains the story of man and his progression in civilization, his downfalls, successes, his laws and wars, religion, arts and development. In other words it can be summarized as the biography of great men who were heroes in the past. The origin of history started way back in Greek being connected to the world famous historians Thucydides and Heredeotus.The word history also relates to writers or narrators of events referred to as historians e.g. we have historians narrating the new history of the Era of the Polis. History follows the example of discovering past human dimensions which one of the history authors divides it into five different stages. The Golden age, the Silver age, the age of Bronze and finally the Iron Age. History incorporates a number of significance that helps us to understand its meaning better. It makes life richer by providing importance to the books one reads, the sites one visits and the kind of...

History Is a Lie

...novels, essays, historical and scientific works. His best-known histories are The Age of Louis XIV (1751), and his Essay on the Customs and the Spirit of the Nations (1756). He broke from the tradition of narrating political and military events, and emphasized traditions, societal history and achievements in the arts and sciences. One of his famous sayings, “History is the lie commonly agreed upon”, is quite contrary as some agree with it while others argue that that is not the case. Based on the analysis and readings I agree with what Voltaire said. Some people associate history with past whereas history is not the same as past. As past is the occurrence of all the events even the minor ones while history is the selection of some events from the past which are then given meaning to by the historians. So what we study is not actually history but historiography (the writings of history). An example of which can be a person selling gingerbread man in a low lying area and some random people come to his stall and beat him up and kill him [1]. So the historians will not give importance to this event – which is definitely part of the past but it is not the part of written history. At the same time history is majorly affected by the involvement of the role of power in its writing. History is always created by the winners. This means that the people who are on the winning end of any event will determine what the correct history will be. This can be seen with the example of Germany losing...
