GRADE 11

1st Quarter - Week Four

OBJECTIVES: At the end of the lesson, the learners will be able to:
1. Describe and explain the hazards associated with earthquakes.
2. Identify areas from the Philippine map where earthquakes are most likely to happen.
3. Identify and give examples of possible geologic hazards associated with earthquake.
4. Demonstrate their understanding of the scope of the effects and damage of
earthquakes by determining the possibility of such effects occurring in their area and
vicinity and where it will most likely happen.
5. Describe the various hazards that may happen in the event of earthquakes, volcanic
eruptions, and landslides.

 3. Locate that earthquake in the map.

DISCUSSION: LET’S PRACTICE

Task 1:

Earth and Life Science 2

 1. Group Activity: Identifying earthquake hazards
a. Divide the learners into 5-6 groups depending on how many hazards are
incorporated in the video.
b. Carefully view the video and identify as many hazards that they observed in
the clip.
c. On a power point presentation, write down their list of hazards with their
description of each hazards that you identified.
Reminder: include the corresponding effect of these hazards to the area, people and
infrastructure.

Task 2:
2. Group Activity: Presentation or sharing of what they identified in the video.

(Video Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4zz6601t2s )

a. The teacher may ask for volunteers who will present or share first.
b. Each group will present one hazard.
EVALUATION/ASSIGNMENT
Retaining the same groupings, come up with a campaign material for the students of the
school. The campaign material must:
a. contains information on the potential danger of earthquake hazards within the school;
b. be a brochure, poster, or a PowerPoint presentation;
c. present this campaign next meeting

SYNTHESIS

1. Natural hazards
2. Risk
3. Vulnerability
4. Ground shaking / ground rupture
5. Tsunamis
6. Earthquake-induced landslides
7. Liquefaction and Subsidence
