ENGAGE (10 minutes)

B. Presenting Before we proceed to our


examples/ lesson today, I want you to
instances for the know the objectives of this
new lesson lesson.
At the end of the lesson, you,
students will be able to:
a. describe ocean
currents; and
b. discuss how ocean
currents affect
climate.
Now, let us observe the
given picture.

What did you observe? Ma'am, the arrows.


Yes, we have arrows and it
has two colors and what
colors are they? Red and Blue Ma'am.

Very good.
What else? Ma'am, the circles around the
globe.
Yes, that's indeed correct!
That is about ocean currents.

So that's our topic for today.


Let's proceed and learn
more about ocean current.

EXPLORE (10 minutes)

C. Discussing Ocean currents have also an

new skills # 1
Based from the picture, you
observe different circles, Loops or gyres
right? -closed, circular flow of water
around an ocean basin.
Those circles you observed
was called loops or gyres.
Kindly read____.
(The students will identify and
state the different loops around
Based from the picture, can the globe.)
you give the different loops
around the globe?
We have____?

1. North Pacific
2. North Atlantic Yes Ma'am.
3. South Pacific
4. South Atlantic Red and Blue
5. Indian
Another observation is the
arrows, right?
And the colors are r__ and
b____.
The red arrow represents (All) Yes Ma'am!
warm current and the blue Yes Ma'am, even at night it is
represents blue currents. warmer.

Now, what is the difference


between warm and cold (no response from the students)
currents?
In your opinion, where does
warm currents came from?
Is it in the poles or in the
equator? Ma'am, in the equator.

How about cold currents? In the poles ma'am.


If warm currents came from
the equator, what kind of
water does ot carry?
Is it warm or cold? Warm ma'am.
Yes! Of course it is warm
water.
On the other hand, cold
currents carry w____.

Do you understand class? Yes ma'am!

Another thing is the direction


of current flows.
What do you notice about
the direction of currents? Are
they the same? No ma'am.

What is there direction?


What can you infer from the
direction of North Atlantic
Current and South Atlantic
Current? Are they the same? No ma'am.

So, in the Northern


Hemisphere, the current
flows in a clockwise
direction. On the other hand,
in the Southern Hemisphere,
the current flows in
counterclockwise direction.

And this direction of ocean


currents is caused by a
phenomenon called Coriolis Coriolis Effect
Effect.  The clockwise and
Kindly read ______. counterclockwise rotation
of ocean current is caused
by a phenomenon called
Coriolis effect.

Since the Earth rotates on its


axis, the flow of air (as well
as water) is in circular
motion.
Do you understand? Yes ma'am.

EXPLAIN (15 minutes)


D.Discuss Now, the

new skills affect
#2 climate?
For you to
understan
d how
ocean
currents
affect
climate, let
us watch
this video

(the
teacher
will play
the video)

So based
from the
video how
ocean
currents
affect
climate?

Very
good,
that's
indeed
correct!
When
ocean
ccurrents
carries
cold water,
the air
above it
becomes
colder.
When this
ocean
current
moves
toward the
coastal
region, the
temperatur
e of that
area
becomes
lower.
Therefore,
it can
make the
climate
cold.
On the
other
hand, the
ocean
current
that carries
warm
water
makes the
air
warmer.
When this
current
goes
toward a
landmass,
the
temperatur
e of that
place
becomes
higher.
Therefore,
it can
make the
climate
warm.
Did you
get it,
cclass?
Do you
have any
questions?

Q3. What kind of air does

Is there any question or
