LESSON PLAN IN SCIENCE
Time: 9:45-10:45 AM
Assessment
Timeline
Demonstrate an understanding of: the relationship
between faults and earthquakes
The Learners shall be able to: participate in decision
making on where to build structures based on
knowledge of the location of active faults in the
community
differentiate the intensity of an earthquake from its
magnitude;
S8ES-IIc-17
At the end of the class, the students will be
able to:
1. Identify the PHIVOLCS Intensity Scale 1 to 10.
2. Explain why earthquake occurs in different
places with different intensities.
Inquiry-Based Teaching Approach (7 E’s),
Integrated/Interdisciplinary Approach by connecting
lessons with other subjects.
Utilizing Technology in the Classroom
Collaborative Learning using group activity
Response Card Teaching Approach
Differentiated Strategy using Simulation Activity
Unit 2 Module 1: Earthquakes and Faults
Topic: How Strong is the Earthquake?
 IV. Procedures
ELICIT The students will give a recap about the previous
A. Reviewing previous lesson or lesson by performing the WORD Challenge activity.
presenting the new lesson The students will describe/define the following
words base on the previous discussion ( about
Earthquakes and Faults) The following words are:
1. Earthquake
2. Fault
3. Focus
4. Epicenter

Then the students will answer the following

B. Establishing a purpose for the
lesson
ENGAGE
C. Presenting examples/instances
of the new lesson
questions:
1. What is an active fault?
2. What are the causes of Earthquake?
*INTEGRATION OF HISTORY/ARALING PANLIPUNAN
Do the ”HISTORY IMAGE GUESSING”:

Present images and then ask the students to what

they can say about the images like what happened to
the buildings, what happened to the roads, is the
earthquake strong, what
Then share a brief history of July 16, 1990
earthquake.

Then group the students into let them be guided

with the classroom rules before proceeding with the
next activity-to have effective classroom setting to
engage learners in different activities

EXPLORE Discuss the two different ways to describe how

D. Discussing new concepts and powerful an earthquake is. (Intensity and
practicing new skills #1 Magnitude)

*(INTEGATION OF MATH AND ENGLISH)

Then let the students perform the activity
“ Matching Intensity Scale to Its Description “ by
following procedures a-d

a. Remember that in Intensity Scale 1-10,

intensity 1 is the weakest and 10 is the
strongest.

b. Read and analyze each description and match

it to what you think is its
corresponding/correct intensity.
c. Consider to arrange each word based on its
strength or power in increasing order.

E. Discussing new concepts and
practicing new skill #2
ELABORATE
E. Developing Mastery (leads to Recitation #1
Formative Assessment 3)
F. Finding Practical application Using Intensity Scale 1-10 and its description, group 1
of concepts
EXPLAIN
F. Making generalization and
abstraction about the lesson
EVALUATE
G. Evaluating the Learning
d. Paste your work on the board.
While discussing the PHIVOLCS Earthquake
Intensity Scale (PEIS), each student per group
will check their
output.
(INTEGATION OF ARTS/MAPEH)
Then let the students to perform the activity
” Earthquake Skit” by following the direction:
Make a 2 -3 minute role playing act showing what
people do when earthquake strikes.
CRITERIA RATING
The concept being
conveyed is delivered 5 4 3 2 1
clearly.
Role was played in
a convincing and 5 4 3 2 1
consistent manner.
Role-play was well 5 4 3 2 1
prepared and organize.
Role-play captured 5 4 3 2 1
and maintained
audience interest.
Integration of Values/ESP
Each group will be given a time to share to the class
their realization after performing the skit.
*INTEGATION OF MUSIC/MAPEH
an 2 will sing it with the tune of “Bahay Kubo” and
group 3 and 4 with the tune of “Leron Leron Sinta”
Then relate the applications of Earthquake and its
intensity to our daily life situations.
Recitation #2
1. What is Intensity
2. What is Magnitude
Let the students to answer the question individually:
1. PHIVOLCS stands for ____________________.
 2. What intensity is capable of destroying all
man made structures?
3. As you go away from the focus, the intensity
