new skills #1  5 points neatness and clarity
of the visual aid
 10 points for voice modulation
 20 points accuracy of the
answer
 15 points delivery and

 Total of 50 points.

The teacher will call the group

Figure 3 consists of two illustrations.

The top one shows a tropical cyclone
as seen at an angle. White rain bands
move around the center or “eye”. The
bottom illustration shows a cross-
section of a tropical cyclone.
Location A is within the eye of the
tropical cyclone. B, C and D are
locations that are more and more
distant from the eye. The air pressure

G. Finding It is important to know about the

practical structure of the tropical cyclone, the
applications of relationship between the wind speed
concepts and and the air pressure. When the eye of
skills in daily a tropical cyclone passes over a
living certain place, it is the winds at the
eyewall that wreak a lot of damage.
As it approaches, one side of the
eyewall brings strong winds blowing in
one direction. Then comes the eye
with its somewhat calm weather.
H. Making The lowest air pressure is at
generalizations the eye of a tropical cyclone. In fact,
and abstractions all tropical cyclones have low air
about the lesson pressure at the center. This is the
reason why the air in the surroundings
move toward the eye. the eye of a
tropical cyclone, wind speed is low.
But in the dense clouds surrounding
the eye, at the eyewall itself, the wind
speed is great. When newspapers
report that a tropical cyclone has
sustained winds of 200 km/hour, for
instance, they are referring to the
winds at the eyewall.

I. Evaluating The means of evaluation for the

learning students is their scores from the
reporting.
