Transfer Goal(s): Apply concepts of the unit to save lives from natural hazards caused by natural
phenomenon.
Essential Questions:
1. What is the fate of the universe? Will the universe continue to expand or will it eventually contract
because of gravity?
2. How man altered the subsystems of the world?
3. How does each layer of the Earth differ from each other?
4. How can I effectively use my knowledge in Minerals and Rocks in identifying useful minerals and
rocks?
5. How does weathering affect the geography of the earth?
6. What is the main difference between erosion and mass wasting? Explain.
7. What is the importance of Earth’s internal heat? Explain.
8. Do you believe in the continental drift theory? Explain.
9. How does “seafloor spreading” affect the land formation in the ocean basins?
10. Explain the importance of geologic time scale in the study of earth’s earliest history?
11. How effective is the present mitigation and adaptation policies of the government against
earthquakes and landslides in protecting and saving lives?
12. How effective is the present mitigation and adaptation policies of the government against hydro
meteorological hazards in protecting and saving lives?
13. How do marine and coastal processes affect the lives of coastal communities?
14. How effective is the present mitigation and adaptation policies of the government against the hazards
posed by marine and coastal processes in protecting and saving lives?
Essential Understanding: The earth is constantly evolving since it began to exist billions of years ago.
Statement:
GOAL: Create a diorama that will be presented in the science exhibit on astronomy.
ROLE: Researcher
AUDIENCE: High school students
SITUATION: A local science museum invited you to participate in its “Science Exhibit on
Astronomy”. The director of the museum asked you to create a diorama that would feature the
physical environment of the earliest period of Earth. As a researcher in earth science, you know about
the different types of gases in the atmosphere and the soil condition of the primitive Earth. Hence, you
agree to support the museum exhibit by creating a diorama that will simulate the physical conditions
of the primitive Earth. The exhibit will be part of the itinerary of a science field trip and will be
visited by high school students.
