DLP Science 9 Q3 Week 1

This document provides an overview of a science lesson on volcanoes for 9th grade students. The objectives are for students to be able to characterize volcanoes, classify them as active or inactive, and create a profile of a volcano. The lesson introduces volcanoes and has students create a concept map to describe key aspects. It then defines active and inactive volcanoes according to eruption history. Students practice the classification by plotting example Philippine volcanoes on a map and labeling them as active or inactive based on provided eruption records.

SCIENCE 9

Quarter 3– Week 1

I. OBJECTIVES
A. Content Standard:
The learners demonstrate understanding of volcanoes found in the
Philippines.

B. Learning Competency:
The learners should be able to describe the types of volcanoes; differentiate between active
and inactive volcanoes.

 Specific Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the learners should be able to:
1. characterize a volcano
2. classify volcanoes as active or inactive
3. create a profile of a volcano

II. CONTENT: LESSON 1: Volcano

III. PROCEDURE

(ENGAGE)
A. Establishing the purpose for the lesson

Do you know a volcano? Since you were in elementary, you have heard about volcanoes.
But do you know what a volcano is?

B. Presenting examples/instances of the new lesson


To find out, let’s do the following activity.

Activity 1:

Volcano Concept Map

Objective:

 characterize a volcano

Fig. 1. Mayon Volcano


Procedure:

Q1. Based on the picture, give five descriptions of a volcano. Present your answer in a
concept map as shown below.

VOLCANO

Read the topic “classification of volcanoes”


Classification of volcanoes

There are several ways by which volcanoes can be classified. PHIVOLCS have
adapted a system where the Philippine volcanoes as active or inactive. Active
volcanoes are those that have a record of eruption within the last 600 years or those
that erupted 10, 000 years ago based on analyses of their materials.

Inactive volcanoes, on the other hand, are those that have not erupted for the
last 10, 000 years and their physical form is being changed by agents of weathering and
erosion through formation of deep and long gullies.

According to PHIVOLCS, our country has more than a hundred volcanoes as of


2013. Twenty-three are active while the rest are inactive. Some of these volcanoes will
be mentioned in the next activity.

(EXPLORE)
C. Discussing new concepts and practicing new skills #1
Perform the next activity to classify the volcanoes according to their record of eruption.

Activity 2. Volcanoes in the Philippine

Objective

 classify volcanoes as active or inactive


Materials:
Philippine map
colored pens
triangle ruler
Procedure:

1. Using the Philippine map (fig. 3), plot the location of the following volcanoes.
Assign colors for the volcanoes. Indicate this in the legend.

= volcano that has no record of eruption


= volcano that has erupted 1 to 5 times
= volcano that has erupted 6 to 10 times
= volcano that has erupted more than 10 times
