Detailed Lesson Plan in Science 6 EARTHQUAKE
I. OBJECTIVES: At the end of the lesson the pupils should be able to;
A. Cognitive
*Define what is Earthquake.
*Explain the two types of Earthquake.
*Explain the difference between magnitude and intensity.
B. Affective
*Appreciate the importance of Precautionary Measures in
case of an Earthquake.
C. Psychomotor
*Perform an Earthquake Drill.
ll.SUBJECT MATTER:
A. Topic: Earthquake
B. References: Into the Future Science and Health VI page 206-209
C. Materials: visual aids,books, jelly,sticks, marshmallow
lll.PROCEDURE:
TEACHER’S ACTIVITY PUPIL’S ACTIVITY
A. Preliminaries
1. Routinary Activities
A.Greetings
-”Good morning Teacher”
“Good morning class!”
-”Better than yesterday”
“How are you today?”
“Good to hear that.”
B.Prayer
“Before we start our lesson, we - (The pupils will stand up and pray.)
will pray first. Everybody
please stand.”
(The teacher will assign a pupil
that will lead a prayer.)
“Very good!”
“What is a crustal plate?”
B. LESSON PROPER
1. Motivation
The teacher will show the class a
jelly, sticks and mallows. (The pupils will observe)
(The jelly will serve as the soil and
the sticks and mallows will serves
as the building.
(The teacher will let the pupils to
observe.) -“Yes, the structures moved.”
*What happened to the jelly after I - The structures moved because you
jiggle it? exerted force causing an imbalance
* Did the structures move? Why or to its position,
why not?
“Correct! The jelly moved.” - Because the pressure you applied to
What caused the structures from the container with the jelly caused
moving? them to move.
2. PRESENTATION
Precisely! Same thing happen
when there is an earthquake. Intense
heat from the Earth;s interior affects
the plates to move. Pressure from
above and beneath the crust causes
the plates to move. The pressures
produces cracks and faults.
Tectonic Earthquake
-is the shifting or the movement of the
crustal plates. Earthquake happen
when the tectonic plates rub against
each other which will make the crust
of the earth shakes.
Volcanic Erthquake
-is caused by the volcanic activity.
Intensity
- is the extent of damage/ destroyed
caused by an earthquake.
Magnitude
-is the amount of energy released by
an earthquake.
Seismograph
- is a device use to measure the
movement of the earth’s crust. It can
also detect and record the vibration of
the earths surface.
Things to do BEFORE an
EATHQUAKE
Things to do DURING an
EATHQUAKE
Things to do AFTER an
EATHQUAKE
C. GENERALIZATION
Group Activity
The class will be divided into 3
groups. Each group will perform a
short earthquake drill. After 10
minutes of preparation each group
will perform in front of the class.
IV. EVALUATION
