At the end of the lesson the students must be able to
 Identify the different types of stress that influence rock behavior.
 Explain how the continents drift.
 Make and assemble a jigsaw puzzle.
II. CONTENT: Continental drift Theory

A. References: Curriculum Guide for SHS S11/12ES-Id-20
B. Other Learning References: Teaching Guide in Integrated Science SEC pp 109.
Earth and Life Science by Diwa pp 48-49 Earth and Life Science by Olivar and
Ramos pp.44-45
IV. PROCEDURE
A. Routinary Activities
 Greetings
 Prayer
 Checking of Attendance
 Reviewing Previous Lesson
Identify what kind of stress is illustrated in each picture.
Guide Questions:
1. How do rocks handle stress?
2. How these stress affects the appearance of the Earth?
B. Establishing a Purpose for the new lesson
Ask: What do you observed in the picture? Do you notice that some of the continents could fit
like a puzzle? If yes, give your opinion.
C. Presenting Examples /instances of the New Lesson
Introduce the Learning Objectives of the Lesson
 I can explain how continents drift
 I can make and assemble a jigsaw puzzle
D. Discussing new concepts and practicing new skills
 Explain how geologic processes continue to change the appearance of
Earth. Show pictures on how Earth looks like before.
 Let the students perform the activity “ Jigsaw Puzzle” (Refer to the
Activity Sheet)
E. Developing Mastery
 Discuss the Continental drift Theory of Alfred Wegener
 In 1912, Alfred Wegener developed the concept and hypothesized the
continental drift theory.
 He claimed that there used to be only one super giant landmass where all
the continents came from.
 He called this massive landmass PANGAEA
 The continents broke apart into huge landmasses and these landmasses
moved away from each other.
 The two giants continents are Laurasia which comprised the continents in
the present day Northern Hemisphere and Gondwanaland (Sothern
Hemisphere
 Continental Drift – is the gradual movement of the continents over time.

The upper layer of crust is broken down into large slabs called PLATES,
which sit on a fluid level of molten rock. The movement of this lower
molten layer, called plate tectonics, cause the plates to shift. Scientists
estimate that the continents move anywhere from one centimeter to
several inches per year.
F. Finding practical application of concepts and skills to daily living

Ask the students: If there were human civilizations millions of years earlier, would there have
been any significant changes in the History of Earth? Explain.
G. Making generalization and abstraction about the lesson
Ask the students:
 Explains continental drift.
H. Evaluating Learning
1. What do you think are the causes of the drifting of the continents?
2. Describe how Alfred Wegener developed and hypothesized the continental
drift theory
I. Additional activities for application or remediation
V. REMARKS
VI. REFLECTION
A. A. No. of learners who earned 80% on the formative assessment
B. No. of Learners who require additional activities for remediation
C. Did the remedial lessons work? No. of learners who have caught up with the lesson.
D. No. of learners who continue to require remediation
E. Which of my teaching strategies worked well? Why did these work?
F. What difficulties did I encounter which my principal or supervisor can help me solve?
G. What innovation or localized materials did I use/discover which I wish to share with other
teachers?
Prepared by:
SMART TEAM ( CLASS E)
ACTIVITY: Jigsaw Puzzle
Materials:
Manila paper colored pens scissors coloring

materials
Procedure:
1. Divide the class into six groups. With their colored pens, ask the students
to draw an outline of a large landmass.
2. In your outline, draw mountains, seas, lakes rivers, or any land/ water
features you prefer.
3. Cut the landmass into smaller parts as required.
4. Mix all the pieces together.
5. Exchange the pieces with those of other groups. Afterwards, put the
pieces together.
Guide Questions
1. Are there any clues you used to put up the pieces together? What are
these clues?
2. How does the activity illustrate Wegener’s ideas about Pangaea and
the Continental Drift Theory?
3. Look closely into a map of the world. Do any of the lands on the map
seem to fit together? What are these lands?
