examples/ instances Strategies: Direct Instruction


of the new lesson
Watch a video about epicenter and focus of an earthquake.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_ZRtS3QGHw

1. What is focus?
2. Where is epicenter located?
3. What are the different types of faults?

C. Discussing new Approach: Collaborative


concepts and Strategies: Group Activity
practicing new skills
ACTVITY 1: WHERE DO EARTHQUAKE START?

Materials Needed:
fault model scissors paste

Procedure:
1. Photocopy the Fault Model (Figure 12; you can also trace it on
paper). Then cut along the outlines of the two drawings.
2. Fold along the lines and paste where indicated. In the end, you
should have a model consisting of two parts that fit together
(Figure 13).
3. The upper surface of the model represents the surface of the
Earth. The trace of the fault on the surface of the Earth is called the
fault line. Be ready to point out the fault line when your teacher
calls on you.
4. Pull the two pieces apart (Figure 14). The flat surface between
the two pieces is called the fault plane. This is where fault slip or
fault movement happens. Point out the fault plane when your
teacher asks you.
5. The place where the fault begins to slip is called the focus. It is
where the first movement occurs. Thus, the focus is the origin of
the earthquake. Be ready to explain it to your teacher.

1. On which location on the ground does the initial movement


Originates during an earthquake?
2. How does this movement (shaking) spread into the surface?

PUTTING TOGETHER

Based from the discussion that every group had, they are ask to
present the over - all concept of what they have learned from their
turn and talk norms activity. Each group will be given 3 minutes
time allotment to present their output in front of the class. Each
group will be grade based on the following criteria;

concepts and skills in
daily living Read the quotation below relate this to what you have learned.

F. Making Approach: Reflective


generalization and Strategies: Discussion
Abstraction about the
lesson LETS GET DIPPER

Question to be asked:
1. What is epicenter?
2. What is focus?
The epicenter is the point on the Earth's surface that is
directly above the focus while the focus is the point (below the
surface) where an earthquake originates.

G. Evaluating Direction: Read each question with understanding. Write the


learning letter of the best answer.
