I.OBJECTIVES At the end of the lesson, the learners are expected to:
 Describe the magnitude and intensity of an
earthquake.
 Identify what intensity is being described in the given
statement.
 Show awareness about the Phivolcs Earthquake
Intensity Scale (PEIS).

A. Content The learner demonstrates an understanding of: How

Standards strong is an earthquake based on magnitude, intensity,
and Phivolcs Earthquake Intensity Scale.
B. Performance The learner transfers learning by being able to make an
Standards emergency plan, prepare emergency kits and apply the
safety measure “DUCK, COVER, HOLD” in which we
witness their participation in the earthquake drill.
C. Most Essential
Learning Describe how strong is an earthquake.

IV. PROCEDURES
A. Introduction
LET US LEARN.

The teacher informs the students of the following

objectives of the lesson:

1. Describe the magnitude and intensity of an

earthquake.
2. Identify what intensity is being described in the given
statement.
3. Show awareness about the Phivolcs Earthquake
Intensity Scale (PEIS).

LET US TRY!

EXPLORATION
The students will explore science concepts they learn from
their previous lessons about earthquakes by playing the
game entitled:

Identify what intensity is being described in the given

statements. Write your answer on a separate sheet of
paper.
_____1. What intensity is completely devastating?
_____2. What intensity of an earthquake can make light
sleepers awakened and vibrations are felt like a passing of
a heavy truck?
_____3. Which intensity is felt by a few individuals at rest
indoors?
_____4. In this intensity, people are forcibly thrown to the
ground, and many cries and shake with fear?

C. Engagement
LET US ENHANCE.

In this time the teacher will be using a concept map to

show how some main concepts are linked.

D.Assimilation

LET US ASSESS.
To assess the students learning the teacher will take a
short moment to reflect on this video about:

V. Reflection
LET ‘s PUT YOUR REFLECTION INTO A
 TEST.

Answer the TRUE or FALSE questions based on the video

shown earlier.

1. In an earthquake drill the students heard the

batingaw or alarm, they will do the duck, cover, and
hold instead of running out immediately.
Answer: TRUE
Yes, it is true because the duck, cover, and hold is one of
the safety measures on how to protect oneself from falling
objects or any debris.

2. After shaking, when you with the crowd or stairs

going to the ground it is safe to run to get easily out
from the building.
Answer: FALSE
The statement is false because running causes accidents.
3. When you are at the evacuation area, don’t stay near
or go back to the building, wait until you are told to do
so.
Answer: TRUE
Yes, it is true, always listen to instructions in order to be
safe from falling debris.
4. After an earthquake it is necessary to do a
headcount.
Answer: TRUE
The statement is correct because it is necessary to check
the number or identify the missing person.
5. After ground shaking you go back immediately
without checking premises.
Answer: FALSE
The statement is incorrect because you should wait for the
persons in authority to declare that the premises are
checked and safe.
