WEEK 1: LESSON PLAN

School: Gallanosa National High Grade Level: 9

School
Teacher: Joebert G. Cantillo Learning Area: Science
Time and Date: 1 session Quarter/Week/Day Q3W4D1

I. OBJECTIVES
CONTENT STANDARD: The learners demonstrate understanding of
the factors that affect climate, and the effects
of changing climate and how to adapt climate
change.

PERFORMANCE The learners should be able to participate in

STANDARD activities that reduce risks and lessen effects
of climate change

LEARNING COMPETENCIES The learners should be able to explain how

different factors affect the climate of an area.
(S9ES – IIIe-30)

SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES The learners should be able to:

1. Explain how latitude affects climate.
2. Demonstrate awareness of the
relationship between latitude and climate.
3. Recognize the effect of the Philippine’s
location on Earth to its climate.
II – CONTENT: Topic/title FACTORS AFFECTING CLIMATE

Powerpoint
Presentation

IV. Procedure
ELICIT The teacher shows scattered letters on the
presentation alongside the image that
correspond to the word to guess the correct
term that is related to the topic.
 Students recall their previous knowledge
about latitude and longitude; tropical region,
temperate region and polar region.
With the use of a globe, the students identify:
a. the latitude and longitude
b. the tropical region, temperate region and
polar region.

ENGAGE Students will locate the Philippines in the

map/ globe and find other countries the
teacher will say.

To what region is the Philippines located?

What climate do we experience?

Now, in this activity you will find out the role

of latitude in varying the climate of different
places.
EXPLORE Students do the activity in a paper
Introduce activity 1- “When the Sun’s Rays
Strike”

Students study the given illustration then answer

the guide questions.

Guide Questions:
1. How much is the tilt of the earth’s axis?
2. Which part of the earth receives most of
the sun’s rays?
3. Why does the amount of heat received by
places far from the equator become less?
4. Why are the coldest places on Earth found
near the poles?
5. Why are places with high temperature
found at the equator?
6. How does latitude affect climate?

EXPLAIN The teacher guides the students in

answering the questions.
Answers to the guide questions:
1. The earth is tilted 23.5
2. The equator receives most of the sun’s
rays.
3. It is due to the tilting of the earth’s axis
and the shape of the earth.
4. Places found near the poles are the
 coldest because they receive less amount of
heat.
5. Due to the tilting of the earth’s axis, places
near the equator receive more heat making
the air temperature higher.

When the area is farther from the equator¸

the air temperature is lower resulting in a
cold climate. When the place is closer to the
equator, the air temperature is higher which
results in a warm climate.
ELABORATE Lecture- Discussion
The teacher facilitates the discussion
emphasizing the relation between latitude
and climate.
When an area is farther from the equator, the
air temperature is lower resulting in a cold
climate. When the place is closer to the
equator, the air temperature is higher which
results in warm climate

EVALUATE What is the relationship between latitude and

climate?
(The closer the latitude to the equator, the
higher the temperature, the warmer the
places located in it, and the farther the
latitude to the equator, the lower the
temperature, the colder the places located in
it.)

EXTEND The Philippines is located in the latitude

 near the equator. How would you relate
this to the climate the Philippines has?
(The Philippines is located in the latitude
near the equator. Since equator receives
much more radiant energy released by the
sun, so places near the equator have warm
climate.)
What about those located near the poles?
What can you say about their climate?
(The areas closer to the poles receive less
amount of energy because the angle of
sunlight becomes smaller, so the colder
these places are.)
V. Remarks

VI. Reflection

the formative assessment.
B. No. of learners who require
additional activities for remediation.
C. Did the remedial lessons work? No.
of learners who have
caught up with the lesson.
D. Which of my teaching strategies
worked well?
Why did these works?
E. What difficulties did I encounter that
my principal or supervisor can
help me solve?
