My sunshine away

Very good class! Thank you for your

participation.

2. Unlocking difficulties

Before we formally start our new lesson for

today, let us first unlock words that we might
surely encounter during our discussion.

I have here a planetary orbit, each orbit consists

of a word. You will pick a word from the orbit and
place to it's correct meaning

Is it clear class?
Yes, teacher!

Sunspot

a.dark patch on the sun a. dark patch on the sun.

Sun
b. a star where planet orbits
b. a star where planet orbits.
c. mass of gas in space
Star

d. flame form at the surface of the e. mass of gas in space.

sun Corona

d. flame form at the surfice of the sun

e. level or parts
Layer

e. level or parts.
A. Reviewing previous lesson or presenting the
new lesson

But before we go to our lesson, what is our topic

last meeting? We discussed about the members of the solar
Very good! system

What is a solar system?

It is the sun, planets and all other heavenly bodies
 orbiting our sun.

Will you enumerate the members of our solar The members of our solar system are the sun, eight
system? planets, dwarf planets, asteroid. meteor, comets

I think you are now ready to our new lesson for

today.

B. Establishing a purpose for the lesson

Now, we will watch a short video that is related

to our topic today. As I play the video you have to
observe and understand because I have questions
for you later on.
Yes teacher!
Is it clear class?

C. Presenting examples instances of the new

lesson

Okay class, What is the video all about? It's all about the sun, teacher

Very Good!

Now I have a question, do you know the parts of

the sun? Do you know that sun has many parts?
No teacher
Do you think that sun is a star?
Yes teacher
What makes you think that sun is a star?
Because just like star, sun emits light and heat
D. Discussing new concepts and practicing new
skill #1

Let's study this picture:

What can you see in the picture? The layers of the sun, teacher

There are four layers of the earth, can you read it

class?
The photosphere, convection zone, radiation zone
and the core.

The first layer is the photosphere is the surface

and outermost layer of the sun with a
temperature of 6,600oC. This where we can see
sunspots and corona.

Do you understand class? Yes teacher

Very good!

Can you point where is the photosphere here? ( students will point the photosphere)
Next layer of the sun is the convection zone. Will
you read the description of this layer class?
Convection zone is the second outer-most layer of
the sun which energy is transported outward
mainly by convection currents.
The importance of convection zone is responsible
for formation of cloud in the earth and on other
planets in the solar system.

Do you understand class?

Yes teacher
Very good!

Another layer is the radiation zone. Can you read

this class? Radiation zone is the third other-most layer of the
sun that emits radiation which is dangerous to our
Do you know why living things on earth doesn't health.
affect much by the radiation of the sun, class?

Because radiation zone and the photosphere

lessen the effect of radiation by blocking some of No teacher
the radioactive particles that the radiation zone
releases.
The last layer of the sun is the core.

Core is the inner-most and the center part of the

sun. It is mainly compose of molten rocks where
hydrogen is converted to helium to produce
energy in the form of heat and light.

Which is hotter, the core or the photosphere?

Correct children! The core teacher

The e core, because it has a temperature of 15
million degree Celsius, while photosphere has
only 6,600 degree celcius.

Did you understand class?

Very good! Yes teacher!

E. Discussing new concepts and practicing new

concepts #2

I will divide you into two groups and each group

will have a identify the different parts of the sun
using the egg and the apple.

For Group 1, let’s imagine that this egg is the sun.

There will be one representative in your group
who will go in front and show to us the layers of
the sun using an egg.

For Group 2 , another thing that could represent

the sun is an apple. There should also be
someone to go in front and show to us the layers
of the sun using an apple.

Is it clear class?

Yes teacher!
Group 1, you may now present your activity
( students will do the activity)

The eggshell represents the photosphere, the

cloth-like part between the shell egg white is the
Very good! Let's give them 5 claps convection zone, the egg white is the radiation
zone, and the egg yolk is the core.
Group 2, you may now present your activity
The red skin of the apple us the photosphere, the
white portion after the skin is the convection zone,
the round space at the center is the radiation zone
and the seed is the core.
Very good! Let's also give them 5 claps

Thank you class for you participation

F. Developing Mastery (Leads to formative

assessment )

I have here an activity for you and you will label

the picture with the parts of the sun.

1. Core

2. Radiation Zone

3. Convective Zone

4. Photosphere

5. Chromosphere

6. Corona
G. Finding Practical applications of concepts and
skills in daily living

Class, what can you say about the sun? Do you

think sun is important to our life? Yes teacher

Why sun is important to our life? Sun is important because the sun allows us to live
 on earth the sun allows us to see everything
around us and the sun give us heat and light. The
sunlight also of the sun is one of the most
important element needed by the plant to grow
because the sun or the plant uses the sun's energy
to produce food.
H. Making Generalization and abstraction about
the lesson

Again class, what is our lesson all about?

Very good! The Sun teacher

Will you enumerate the layers of the sun?

The layers of the sun are photosphere, convection

zone, radiation zone, and the core.
Very good!

Do we consider sun as a star?

Yes teacher
Correct, very good!
