“What was our topic yesterday?” “Our topic yesterday was about the
effects of typhoon.”

“What are the effects of typhoon?”


“Very well said! What are the things
you need to prepare in case there is
a typhoon?”
“Very Good!”
Unlocking of difficulties
Kph – Kilometers per hour

Geophysical and Astronomical
Service Administration
“Before we proceed to our next topic
let me check first if you are familiar
with some terms that I will post on
the board.”
(Teacher will post ‘Kph’)
“Correct!”
(Teacher will post PAGASA)
“Excellent!”
f. Motivation
“Do you always watch the news or
listen to a radio broadcast whenever
there’s a typhoon?”
“Great, if that so, I assume that
you’ve heard of storm signals?”
“So what are the storm signals?”
(Pupils will give various answers
like;
*Typhoon can destroy buildings and
houses
*Typhoons can also affect the
natural environment, and cause
harm to trees and other vegetation,
including crops that communities
may rely on for sustenance or trade,
or both.)
(Pupils will give various answers
like;
*In case there is a typhoon we need
to prepare our First Aid kits, Extra
batteries for flashlights and mobile
phones, Store food, Packed clothes
in case of evacuation and a clean
and safe drinking water.)
(Pupil will raise his hand; “Kph
stands for Kilometers per hour.)
(Pupil will raise his hand; “PAGASA
stands for Philippine Atmospheric,
Geophysical and Astronomical
Service Administration.”)
“Yes ma’am!”
“Yes ma’am!”
“The storm signals are; signal
number one, storm signal number

pictures of places affected by storm signal number four and storm
different typhoons, I want you to signal number five.”
describe what you see on the
picture and try to guess the signal
that was raised. Are you ready?”

(teacher will show this picture)

“Yes ma’am!”

(Pupil will raise hand and say;

“On the picture some trees were

with typhoon Lawin.”
uprooted from the ground also lots
of leaves are scattered. It looks like
the wind during that time was really
strong but I’m guessing that the
signal for that place is Signal 1.”)

(Teacher will show the second

picture.)

“Correct! This picture shows the (Pupil will raise his hand and say;
signal number 2 of typhoon Lando in “On the picture there are banana
a particular area in the Philippines.” tress uprooted on the ground. I
think it’s in signal 2.”)
(Teacher will show the next picture)

“Great observation and you are

correct! Now I will show you another
picture.”
(Pupil will raise his hand and say;
“Based on the picture some light
posts are down and there are
uprooted trees. I’m guessing that
it’s in signal 3.”)
“Very good! this photo shows the
damage that was made by Typhoon
Yolanda in Tacloban City. It is the
strongest typhoon that hit the (Pupil will raise his hand and say;
Philippines.”
“Based on the picture there are a lot
“Great job!” of damages like even houses made
of concrete are seriously damaged.
(Teacher will show the last picture.) It’s in signal 4.”)

(Pupils are listening)

“Correct! So far Philippines has not

yet experienced a typhoon signal
number five.”

g. Presentation

“Our lesson for today is all about
Describing the Effects of the winds,
given a certain storm warning
signal.”
(Teacher will post this chart on the
board.)
“The place looks very devastating,
there are no houses seen on the
picture and all of the trees are
uprooted. I guess it’s in signal
number five.”

“Very good! what would be the

“Correct! What would be the impact
of the wind?”
“Very well said! How about in signal

indicate?”
“Very good! what is the impact of
the wind?”
“Very well said! In an instance,
Signal number four is raised what
does it indicate? Is it different from
the first three signals?”
“It indicates that winds of 30-60 kph
is expected in that area and
Irregular rains may be expected in
at least 36 hours.”
“No damage to very light damage.”
“If signal number two is raised it
indicates Winds of greater than 60
kph and up to 100 kph may be
expected in at least 24 hours.”
“Light to moderate damage to the
exposed communities, it means
Some coconut trees may tilt; some
of them may break, few big trees
may be uprooted, many banana
plants may be downed and old
galvanized iron roofing may be
peeled off. “
“Winds of greater than 100 kph up
to 185 kph may be expected in at
least 18 hours.”
“Many coconut trees may be broken
or destroyed.
Almost all banana plants may be
downed and a large number of trees
may be uprooted.
Rice and corn crops may suffer
heavy losses.
Majority of light material houses
may be unroofed or destroyed.
There may be considerable damage
to structures of light to medium
construction.
There may be widespread disruption
of electrical power and
communication services.
In general, moderate to heavy
damage may be experienced,
particularly in the agricultural and
industrial sectors.”
“In signal number four the typhoon
has a very strong winds of more
than 185 kph may be expected in at
least 12 hours. It is different from

the first three typhoons because it
has a stronger wind impact.”
“Coconut plantations may suffer
extensive damage, many large trees
may be uprooted,
most residential and institutional
buildings of mixed construction may
be severely damaged,
electrical power distribution and
communication services may be
severely disrupted and
damage to affected communities
can be very heavy.”
“The signal number five implies that
winds is more than 220 kph and
maybe expected in 12 hours.”

“How does the wind impact?”
“The wind impact is very heavy to
widespread damage. It can make a
whole community homeless because
houses even made in stones will be
gravely destroyed.”

“That is correct!”

h. Practice

Match each typhoon signals with

their corresponding speed of the
wind.

Signal no. 1 60kph-

100kph
Signal no. 2 30kph-60kph
Signal no. 3 185-220kph (Pupils will answer on a piece of
Signal no. 4 more than paper)
220kph
Signal no. 5 100-185kph

I. Application

Group 1 – News reporting about

Storm warning signal

Group 2 – Role playing on how

you’re going to prepare if there’s a
typhoon.

“Class, we are going to perform a

group activity. So I will divide you
into two groups, let’s start counting
from the left side. Start counting:
1,2……. Alright. each group should
stay in their assigned table. I will
discuss to you what will be your
activity for today. Do you
understand?”
“Group 1, you are going to perform
a news reporting based on our
lesson about the storm warning
signals, you’re going to give us
information about the typhoon and
give us warnings if it is signal
1,2,3,4 or 5. Do you understand?”
“Group 2, you are going to make a
scene on preparing for the incoming
typhoon. Show us the right things to
do on how to be prepared. Do you
understand?”
“I will give you five minutes to
prepare. We are going to start after
five minutes”
(Pupils will perform by group.)
GROUP 1
News reporting
Good morning televiewers!
You’re watching News Tv!
Our news for today is all about the
typhoon.
Tropical Storm Urduja slightly
intensified before dawn on Friday,

state weather bureau PAGASA said
Urduja now has maximum winds of
75 kilometers per hour (km/h) from
the previous 65 km/h and gustiness
of up to 90 km/h. Due to Urduja's
extremely slow movement, its
expected landfall has been pushed
back to either Saturday morning or
afternoon, December 16. Signal
number 2 remains raised over
Eastern Samar, Northern Samar,
Samar, Biliran Signal no. 1
meanwhile, is still up in:
Catanduanes, Camarines Sur, Albay,
Sorsogon, Romblon, Leyte,

“We have five storm signals.”
“The PAGASA has created the Storm
Signal System because our country
is often visited by typhoons and in
order for us to be aware on what
preparations we’re going to do. The
Storm Signal System will help us.”
“The PAGASA added signal number

System?”
“Why did PAGASA added signal
number five in the Storm Signal
System?”
“Does it indicate that some
typhoons are serious and some are
not? Why?”
five in the Storm Signal System to
give warning on a tropical cyclone
winds of more than 220 kph that are
expected within 12 hours, it is also
considered as a super typhoon. It is
to raise public awareness so that
they will take signal warnings
seriously.”
“No because even if it is in signal 1,
2 or 3 we should always remain
vigilant specially when it comes to
the safety of our family members.
Let us not take typhoons lightly and
act accordingly to what PAGASA is
telling because they are there to
guide us and inform us.”

“In times of typhoons it is always

“We are now living in a generation
where it is easy for us to access
information. Relating with our topic,
how can technologies help us in
times of typhoons?”
important for us to watch or listen
on news and because of
technologies it is much easier for us
to get informed because we can
access on weather news, read
articles about typhoons that are
about to come and it help us to be
more prepared and avoid serious
damages that a typhoon may cause
us.”

“Very good! now on a piece of paper

answer this.”
