A Detailed Lesson Plan in Science VI
I. Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
a. Determine the changes on the surface of the earth as a result of earthquakes;
b. Learn the significance of being prepared for any disaster; and
c. Identify the different surface effects.
II. Subject Matter
Topic: Changes that Occur on the Surface of the Earth as a Result of Earthquakes
Reference: Science 6 Quarter 4 – Module 1
Instructional Materials: ppt, tarpapel, laptop, tv
Skills: teamwork, critical thinking
Values: instills a sense of responsibility
III. Procedure
Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity
A. Preparation
1. Prayer
Good morning, class! Good morning, teacher.
Let’s all stand and let us pray. Who
wants to lead the prayer, class? (A pupil will lead the prayer).
2. Checking of Attendance
Who is absent, class? None, teacher.
3. Motivation
How are you, class? Good, teacher.
I prepared some pictures and I want
you to say “YES” if it shows an effect
of earthquakes and say “NO” if not.
1. YES
2. NO
3. YES
4. NO
5. NO
6. YES
7. NO
8. NO
Very good, class. Now, do you have
any idea why it is important to know
the effects of earthquakes?
To be prepared with the upcoming disaster,
Very good, we should always be teacher.
prepared in any disaster.
B. Presenting of Lesson
Based from our activity earlier, it is
Effects of an earthquake, teacher.
related to our topic for today. Any idea,
class?
You have an idea, our topic for today is
“Changes that Occur on the Surface of
the Earth as a Result of Earthquakes”
C. Discussion
Can you give me an example of how an (Students will answer)
earthquake can change the surface of the
Earth?
Very good, class. Everything that you’ve
said is correct.
Now, let’s know some of the effects of A tsunami is a series of huge waves, which is an
the earthquake. Will you read the first effect of underwater sea earthquakes or
one, class? undersea volcanic eruptions. The waves become
bigger and taller when it reaches shallow water
near the land. When it sweeps inland, it causes
damage to properties and loss of lives.
Yes/No, teacher.
Have you ever seen a tsunami, class? Scary, teacher.
How was it to you?
A landslide may happen when an earthquake
That’s right, because tsunami is a affects or occurs on hilly or steep slopes. It is the
dangerous disaster. Okay, next one. movement of a mass of rock or earth down a
slope due to ground shaking.
Here across our school have experienced
a landslide when the typhoon occurs. But
earthquake can also cause landslide due
to the shaking of the ground. Ground shaking is an effect of earthquake that
loosens rocks and soil which causes landslide and
Let’s read the next one, class. bury the area below the mountain. It can cause
damage to properties and loss of lives.
This is when earthquakes occur, there is a
ground shaking that can cause the
burying of the areas below the mountain. A ground rupture occurs during an earthquake. It
is caused by the push and pull of rocks
Next one, class. underground causing the surface to tear apart
that form gaps or cracks on the ground.
Ground rupture can damage buildings,
bridges, houses, roads, and other
structures.
Also, earthquake can also indirectly cause
fire on people’s homes.
D. Generalization
What are the effects of an earthquake?
What is tsunami?
What is landslide?
E. Application
I have here a piece of cartolina and I want
you to come in front to write the things
that you can donate when there are
victims from the earthquake.
For example, a piece of your clothing.
