The Learners demonstrate an understanding of:
the relationship among the locations of volcanoes, earthquake epicenters,
and mountain ranges
The Learners shall be able to:
1. demonstrate ways to ensure disaster preparedness during earthquakes,
tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions
2. suggest ways by which he/she can contribute to government efforts in
reducing damage due to earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions
6. enumerate the lines of evidence that support plate movement

Activity 1: Tell Me!
The teacher will present set of pictures then the students will form a word
from the set related to the previous topic (Refer to the prepared PPT). The
students will say something/describe the word formed.
Picture 1 – Earthquake
Picture 2 – primary wave
Picture 3 – Volcanic island arc
Picture 4 – Continental crust
Picture 5 - Continental volcanic arc
Activity 2 : Cite and explain
What are the theories that explain the movements of the continental plates?
Based from these theories, what are the evidences that support plate
movements? Explain
Activity 3: Study the map of distribution of Active Faults and Trenches in the
Philippines

Now that you understand what happens inside the Earth and its effects
on the Earth’s surface, you should be able to realize that the tectonic
activities at the surface just like volcanic eruptions and earthquakes are
inevitable. Since you can’t prevent these tectonic activities from happening,
the following performance task will enable you to contribute meaningfully in
minimizing the damage that these phenomena can bring.
Activity 5: Presentation of Performance Task
( Differentiated Instruction- Product)
Possible products: flyers, slogan, short video presentation & comic strip

Goal
To design a scheme to inform local folks in your hometown about the
G. Finding practical applications possibilities of earthquakes, tsunami, and other geologic activities in
of concepts and skills in daily your area
living Role
H. Making generalizations A student seeking to help the government.
ELABORATE / EXTEND:(This section Audience
will give students the opportunity People in your locality
to expand and solidify/concretize Situation
their understanding of the concept You are to inform local folks in your hometown about the possibilities of
and/or apply it to a real-world earthquakes, landslide , and other geologic activities in your area. Most
situation) especially, you must bring out in them the sense of being always ready
and prepared.
Product
Informative materials about ways to mitigate the effects of tectonic
activities-related disasters
Standards
You will be rated according to the following criteria:
Details and Information 4 points
Method of Presentation/Dissemination 4 points
Techniques 4 points
Accuracy 4 points
Feedback/Result 4 points
TOTAL 20 points
