PERFORMANCE STANDARD:
The learners should be able to design an emergency and preparedness plan and kit

Day 1

I. OBJECTIVE:
 Observe through a model how the earth revolves around the sun

Values: Resourcefulness

II. SUBJECT MATTER:

Topic
-How the Earth Revolves Around the Sun

A. Science Concept/Idea:
 The Earths revolves around the sun even it rotates on its axis. One complete revolution takes 265 ¼ days.
Because the earth is tilted on its axis, one pole is pointed more towards the sun. theearths rotation deflects
winds to the east and west to produce belts.
 The wind blows counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere.

B. Science Processes:
Observing, Describing, Inferring
C. Materials:
Globe, piece of chalk, diagram of the earths revolution around the sun, light bulb on a stand or
suspended from the top, pencil, crayons.

III. PROCEDURE:
A. Preparatory Activities:
1. Review:
What is the meaning of revolution? Rotation?
B. Developmental Activities:
1. Motivation:
 If the Earth is not revolving around the sun, how do you imagine the world to be?
2. Presentation:
a. Show a diagram illustrating the revolution of the earth around the sun.
b. Observe the revolution of the sun through a model.
3. Concept Formation:
How is revolution differ from rotation?
Describe how the earth revolves around the sun?
4. Application:
How does the tilting of the Earth’s axis affect the heat and light of the sun that reach the earth?
IV. EVALUATION:
1. How many days it take one complete revolution of the earth to the sun?
2. How does the earth revolves around the sun?

V. ASSIGNMENT:

Draw or make a model showing the revolution of the earth around the sun.
