among the locations of volcanoes, earthquake epicenters, and
mountain ranges
The learners shall be able to:

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

• Motivation:
Photo/Video Clip Analysis:
Have you ever had the chance to go to a mountain, stand on its
peak and look at the beauty that it offers? Do you think it looks the
same as before?
Perhaps you would think that it might be different - all plains, no
plateaus, no mountains. If it wasn’t the same 10 years ago, how
much different is it 10 million years ago, 100 million years ago?
Study the comic strip below. What did you notice? What are they
telling about each other?
 Study the two pictures. Answer the questions below each picture.

Study the two pictures. Answer the questions below each picture.

1. Based from the picture, what do you think are the causes of
plate movement? Describe movement of plates.
2. Explain why plates are moving?
B. Development

1. In the cycle shown, is mantle made of silicate rocks? Why ?

2. Why do mantle rock rises?

Learners will be assigned to the Collaborative Learning

C. Engagement
Group(CLG). Using Google Slide, students working in a group.
 Learning Task 3 : Study the articles below. Answer the questions .
PIVOT Module pages 32 – 35.

Article 1
QUESTION:
If you are a geologist, what theory will you present to describe the
possible process involved in the tectonic plate movement?

Article 2
QUESTION:
What do you think will happen to earth if tectonic plates are not
moving?

Article 3
QUESTION:
React on each paragraph. What ideas or principles can your add to
these?

Article 4
QUESTION:
If you will be asked to write your own theory that will explain the
possible causes in the movement of plate tectonics, what would it
be? Will you use this Wegener’s theory? Why ?
