PLAN DATE & TIME OCTOBER 17, 2023; 1:00-3:00 PM QUARTER FIRST

I. OBJECTIVES
A. Content Standard The learners demonstrate an understanding of the main layers of the earth’s
interior , including the inner core, outer core, mantle, and crust.
B. Performance Standard The learner shall be able to describe the primary composition of each layer of
the earth’s interior, providing information about the materials and elements
present.
C. Learning Describe the internal structure of the Earth (S9ES –Ia-j-36.4)
Competencies/Objectives

Specific Objectives The learner should be able to:

1. Tell the composition of the layers of the Earth.
2. Describe the properties of the layers of the Earth
3. Appreciate the importance of the different elements found on
Earth to one’s life

II. CONTENT The Composition of the Earth’s Interior

III. LEARNING RESOURCES
A. References
1. Teacher’s Guide pages pp. 32-36
2. Learner’s Material pages pp. 48-51
3. Textbook pages
4. Additional Materials from
Learning Resource (LR) portal
B. Other Learning Resources

IV. PROCEDURES
ELICIT “ Game Time” STRATEGY
A. Reviewing previous lesson or Reveal the words that are asked or describe in the following games:
presenting the new lesson
1. 4 Pics- 1 Word 3. Guess the Word

2. Pictoword
ENGAGE “Name Game” STRATEGY
B. Establishing a purpose for the Give the name of the following symbols of elements:
lesson o Fe (Iron) o Na (Sodium) o H (Hydrogen)
o Si (Silicon) o O (Oxygen) o Ti (Titanium)
o Ni (Nickel) o Al (Aluminum) o Mg (Magnesium)
o Ca (Calcium) o K (Potassium)

C. Presenting examples/instances DISCUSSION

of the new lesson
The teacher discuss about the composition of the earth
1. Label the drawing corresponding to the Earth’s layers.
2. Describe the different layers of the Earth using symbols.
3. Choose from the response grid on the right the symbol that you
need to finish the figure on the left.
4. Draw the symbol/s in the corresponding layer of the Earth.

EXPLORE
D. Discussing new concepts and INTERACTIVE DISCUSSION
practicing new skills #1 “CRASH LANDING ON YOU” STRATEGY

 The teacher prepares an airplane that made of a paper.

 The teacher will throw the airplane at the front of all the students, if
the paper airplane land on a particular student, then the student will
answer the question.

Guide questions:
1. What element is the most abundant in the Earth’s crust?
2. What elements make up most of the mantle?
3. What is the special feature of the upper mantle?
4. How did scientists come to know that the outer core is liquid?
E. Discussing new concepts and 5. What materials make up the inner core?
practicing new skills #2
6. Is the inner core solid, liquid, or gas? What keeps it in this phase?
7. Compare the inner core and the outer core.
 Oxygen is the most abundant element in the Earth’s crust.
 The elements silicon, oxygen, iron and magnesium make up the
mantle.
 The upper mantle has with it a soft weak layer called the
asthenosphere, which is capable of flowing. This property facilitates
the movement of the lithospheric plates.
 The scientists were able to show that the outer core is liquid due to
the fact that S- waves cannot travel through this Earth’s layer as
proven by the S-wave shadow zone.
  The inner core is mostly made up of iron and nickel.
 The inner core is solid. This is due to the very high pressure that
keeps it compacted together even if the temperature is really very
high.
 The outer and the inner core are made mostly of iron and nickel. The
outer core reaches a temperature of 2000OC. With this temperature,
the iron and nickel melt thus, this layer is liquid. The inner core has a
temperature as high as 5000 C. It is compact despite of the very hot
o

temperature because of the very great pressure that keeps this layer
in the solid phase.

EXPLAIN
F. Developing Mastery ORAL RECITATION
(Leads to Formative Assessment) “PICK A PAPER” STRATEGY

 The teacher will prepare a box that contains a cutting piece of

paper , each piece of paper has a question then the student should
answer the given question .

Guide Questions:
o Which elements are found in not just 1 layer? Identify to which
layers they can be found.
(Ans. Fe – crust, mantle, core; Si – crust, mantle; O – crust,
mantle)
o Aside from elements, hot rock is also found on Earth. In which
layer/s can it be found?

(Ans. Mantle, Inner and Outer Core)

ELABORATE
G. Finding Practical of concepts and
skills in daily living
H. Making Generalization and
Abstractions throughout the Lesson
“PICK ME” STRATEGY
o Select 3 elements that are found on any layer of Earth.
o In what way can you use these elements in your life?
o Identify in which particular layer is it found.
o Give at least 1 use in each chosen element.
Example:
 Oxygen – found in crust
– the air that we breath
“CALL A FRIEND” STRATEGY
Why it is important to know about the layers and composition of the interior
of earth?

EVALUATE “PIN AND PAPER” STRATEGY

I. Evaluating Learning DIRECTIONS: In a one whole sheet of paper kindly answer the
following.

A. Arrange the jumbled letters which is the composition of the layers of

the earth.
NNERI RECO TSURC
TENALM TORUE OREC

B. Classify the following elements based on which layer they are

found. Check the appropriate column/s.
ELEMENTS CRUST MANTLE CORE
1) Fe (Iron) () () ()
2) Si (Silicon) () ()
3) Ni (Nickel) ()
4) Ca (Calcium) ()
5) Na (Sodium) ()

9) H (Hydrogen) ()
10) Ti (Titanium) ()
11) Mg (Magnesium) ()

C. Among the elements present on the different layers of Earth,

Iron (Fe) is found in all 3 layers. In what ways is the element
Iron (Fe) found or used by humans? List down at least 3
examples
(Possible Answers:
 used to manufacture steel
 used in civil engineering (reinforced concrete, girders, etc.)
and in manufacturing
used for pipes, valves and pumps)
