“You really understand our lesson
yesterday.”
III. A. Presenting the New Lesson
“Class, Have you seen a fountain?”
“Will you give an example of fountain that
you have seen? Yes, ______.”
“Very good! This is an example of fire
cracker fountain.”
2. During
3. After
Yes Ma’am!
Firecracker fountain
5. “Will you give another example of
fountain? Yes, ______.”
“Excellent! This is an example of water
fountain.?
“Another, yes, ______.”
“Bravo, can you identify the similar activity
of the examples that you have given?”
“You got exactly the point. Now can you
think of a landform that you can compare to
the activity of a fountain?”
Water fountain
Chocolate fountain
“There is something that is being sent up to
the air and falls back.”
“A volcano has a similar activity like a
fountain.”
6. “Nice, the activity of a volcano erupting is
similar to a fountain. Let me show you a
picture of volcano.”
B. Establishing a Purpose for the Lesson
“Alright class, now let us have a group
game. I prepared a set of puzzle. I will give
each group a paper bag, I want you to
arrange the puzzle from the paper bag to
form the picture. After arranging the puzzle,
post your work on the board. The fastest
group will win the game. Is that clear
class?”
“But before we start, what are the things to
remember when having a group activity?
Yes, _____.”
“That’s good!
What else? Yes, _____.”
“Now that you got the things to remember
when doing an activity, are you ready to
start?”
“Okay, go!”
“Group _____ wins the game. Let’s give
them an angel clap.
(The group will also receive an award)
Now, let us consider the puzzles posted in
the board. What have you formed in the
puzzles?
“Yes Ma’am!”
“Work cooperatively.”
“Work quietly.”
“Yes, we are ready.”
(Pupils arrange the puzzles)
7. “Great Job!”
(The teacher will write the word volcano on
on the board)
“Everybody let’s read what is written on the
board.”
(The teacher will write on the board)
Everybody read.
It shows different volcanoes.
“Volcano!”
“This is a landform that is formed by the rising
of molten rocks beneath the earth’s surface.”
8. C. Presenting Examples or Instances of the
New Lesson
“I have here a short video clip about
volcanoes but before you watch the video,
let us refresh your mind about the things to
be consider while watching?
Yes, ______.”
“Right! Another.
Yes, ______.”
“Good!
You will also take down important details
that to be shown in the video.
Is that clear, class?”
(The teacher will play the video clip)
“Did you understand the video clip?”
“Very good! Now, what is lava?”
“Very well said. Based on the video,
What is magma?”
“Magnificent!
Where did magma accumulate?”
“Bravo!
When the pressure cannot longer be
contained, where did volcano erupts?”
“You got it!
What are the common gases emitting by
the volcano?”
“That’s correct! Another.
Yes, ______.”
“Watch silently.”
“Be attentive.”
“Yes Ma’am!”
“Yes Ma’am!”
“It is a molten rock comes out from the
volcano.”
“A liquid rock when it is under the surface.”
“It accumulated at the center.”
“It erupts through the crater and side vents.”
Sulfur Dioxide
9. “You all really attentive during the video
Watching. Give yourselves five claps”
E. Discussing the New Concepts and
Practicing New Skills # 1
“Lets go back to the picture you formed.
Can you name some volcanoes that you
know in the Philippines and where you can
find them? Yes, _____.”
“Very good example! Mayon Volcano is
known worldwide with the most perfect
cone shape. Another.
Yes, _____.”
“Magnificent! Taal volcano is
The smallest volcano in the Philippines.
Another, _____.”
Hydrogen Chloride
(The pupils will clap five times)
Mayon volcano in Albay
Taal volcano in Batangas
Mt. Pinatubo in Zambales
10. “Very good!The nearest volcano in our
place, located in Zambales, Mt. Pinatubo is
one of the most devastating volcano that
erupted in the year 1991”.
“These are just few examples of
volcanoes that we have here in the
Philippines.”
“Have you ever watched a volcanic
eruption shown on television?”
“How does it look like when it erupts?”
“To further study about the volcano and
its parts, let’s study the presentation in
the wide screen.”
“Yes Ma’am!”
“It emits volcanic gases and smoke into the
air.”
11. “I’m holding something, can you identify
what model is this? “
“Do you want to see how to erupt a
“A model of a volcano.”
12. volcano?”
“Now, we will be having an experiment to
demonstrate and describe how volcanoes
erupt. We will be able to know more
about volcanic eruption.”
“Before we proceed with the
experiment, who can give the
different parts of the volcano using the
model?”
“For our today’s experiment, we need
baking soda, red food color, dishwashing
liquid and vinegar.”
“ But before you start, will you please tell
The different things that we have to
consider or remember while having a
group activity.”
“Always remember the acronym
SCIENCE in recalling the standard to be
followed in doing a group activity. Is
that clear class?”
I prepared an activity paper for you to
answer.
I will give you 10 minutes for this
experiment. You may now start.
F. Discussing New Concepts New Skills # 2
“Are you done class?”
“Can we hear your observation report,
Group 1?”
“You did it well! Give yourself an angel
clap. Let’s hear the work of group 2.”
“Excellent. Let’s give them a
congratulation clap. Now let’s listen to
“Yes Ma’am!”
(A volunteer will give the parts of a volcano
using the model provided)
S – stay with your group
C – challenge yourself
I – immediately follow directions
E – engage your mind
N – note important details
C – consider others idea
E – explain your answer
Yes Ma’am!
(The pupils will perform the experiment)
Yes Ma’am!
(The pupils in group 1 will report their
observations)
(The pupils in group 2 will report their
observations)
13. the group 3”
“Great job. All of you deserve a
magnificent clap.”
(Each group will receive an award)
G. Developing Mastery
(There will be a collaboration between the
teacher and the pupils regarding with the
information about the volcano)
(The pupils in group 3 will report their
observations)
14.
15. F. Finding Practical Applications of
Concepts of Skills and Daily Livings
“Imagine that we have a kettle with water.
How can we know that the water is
boiling? Anyone, yes ______”
“Exactly, what have you notice when the
kettle is boiling and producing a sound”
“Ok. What if we put something in the
hole to block the release of pressure
from the kettle. What do you think will
happen?”
“You got the point. Let’s think that the
kettle is similar to a volcano and when
the water reaches its boiling point the
kettle will whistle. That is similar to a
volcanic eruption.”
“From that comparison, is the volcanic
eruption important even if it is
devastating?”
“The kettle will whistle.”
“There is a vapor coming out in the kettle
hole.”
“The Kettle will explode.”
“Yes Ma’am! Volcanic eruption is important
to help the earth release its pressure from
within.”
16. “You hit the thought. What do you
think are the other benefits of
volcanoes?”
“Very good! Another.
Yes, _____.”
“Excellent! Volcanoes provide benefit to
humans, other living things and
environment but a volcanic eruption is still
a natural disaster that can harm all living
things.”
“If you were living in a place near the
volcano, what are the preventive measures
that we can do in case of volcanic
eruption in the vicinity?
Yes, _____.”
“Very good! Another.
Yes, _____.”
“You got it. What else? ”
“That’s correct! Living near volcanoes is
risky, but we can minimized harmful effect
if we are aware on what to do. But to be
safe avoid going to the danger zone of the
volcano.”
“To know more about the activity of any
volcano here in our country we can rely on
the PHILVOLCS. Who among you have
heard about PHILVOLCS?”
“Can you share your knowledge about
PHILVOLCS?”
(The teacher will call one volunteer)
“Very well said. Now we all know about
what PHILVOLCS is and its work which
is providing information about any
volcanic activity and earthquake here in
the Philippines.””
IV. Making Generalization and
Abstractions about the Lesson
“ Now class, after all the discussion and fun
activities that we have, let’s sing a song to
help us to remember our lesson today I
It becomes a tourist attraction.
It fertile the soil.
Evacuate if necessary.
Prepare emergency preparedness plan and
supply kit.
Cover your mouth and nose with a wet towel
to avoid inhaling the smoke coming out from
the volcano.
(Some of the pupils will raise their hand)
Philippine Institute of Volcanology and
Seismology: they are a national institution that
studies about volcanic activities and
earthquake.
17. will play a song with a tuned Fireworks.
Let’s using the lyrics of the song. Are you
ready class?”
(The teacher will play the song)
Did you understand our lesson for today?
“Have you enjoyed the song?”
