I. Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the pupils are expected to:
a. identify the meaning of typhoon warning signals;
b. create a chart showing the possible happenings about each warning signal and report it in
the class,
c. realize the importance of these typhoon warning signals for safety.
III. Procedure
A. Pre Activity
Drill
Checking of Attendance
Motivation
Show pictures of places affected with typhoon.
Ask:
What do you think was the storm signal raised in this place?
What do you think is the extent of damage in this situation?
What government agency announces the storm signal?
B. Activity Proper
1. Discuss further the meaning of Storm Signals
(The teacher will show drawings/pictures of each storm signal to show visual effects)
Signal No. 1 is put into effect when a maximum wind speed of not more
than 60 kph is expected to affect a certain place in at least 36 hours. In
this situation, impact of winds may cause twigs and branches of small
tress to be broken, some banana plants may be tilted or put down, and
some houses of very light materials, like nipa and cogon. Classes in
preschool levels in all public and private schools in affected communities
are automatically suspended.
Signal No. 2 is announced when the maximum wind speed is greater than
60 kph, but not more than 100 kph is expected to affect a certain place in
at least 24 hours. In this situation, some coconut trees may be tilted or
broken, few big trees may be uprooted, large number of nipa and cogon
houses may be partially or totally unroofed, some old galvanized roofing
may be peeled off, and, in general, the winds may bring light to moderate
damages to the communities affected. With storm signal no. 2, classes in
preschool, elementary and high school levels in all public and private
schools in the affected areas are automatically suspended.
Signal No. 4 is declared when very strong winds of more than 185 kph is
expected to affect a certain area in at least 12 hours. In this situation,
many large trees may be uprooted and most residential and buildings of
mixed construction may be severely damaged, electrical power disruption
and communication services are disrupted, and, in general, massive
damages are expected in affected communities.
C. Application
DO THESE:
Group yourselves into four
Create your own understanding and perspectives to what possible
happenings that each storm signal may brought and caused towards a
certain area or community. Visualize it through an outlined chart.
Group 1 is task to storm signal no. 1, group 2 to storm signal no. 2, group3
to storm signal no. 3 and group 4 to storm signal no. 4.
Report in the class thereafter the making
D. Generalization
In this lesson, the pupils learned the importance the of each storm signal by the
meaning itself so that they can prepare for the coming typhoon, aside, for them to
be safe and protected.
IV. Evaluation
Make a radio broadcast about the following storm signals.
Group 1 Group 2
Storm Signal No. 4 Storm Signal No. 3
Group 3 Group 4
Storm Signal No. 1 Storm Signal No. 2
