V. PROCEDURES
A. Reviewing previous lesson or Good morning class! How are you today?”
presenting the new lesson Prayer
Checking of attendance

Before we proceed to the new topic let’s have a review first our previous
discussion.

This teacher will ask the following questions:

 What was the previous lesson?
 How important is it to know about weather and climate?

(The teacher will call somebody from the class to share their learning and
understanding about the past discussion.)

the lesson proceed to Eclipses

The teacher will present the different types of eclipses, and students will
identify what they are.

At the of the lesson, students should be able to:

a. Explain how a solar and lunar eclipses occur

What is Eclipses?
 Mindanao State University at Naawan
College of Education & Social Sciences
Department of Secondary & Elementary Education

 An astronomical event that occurs when one celestial object (Earth or

moon) moves into the shadow of another or a celestial object passes

in front of the sun, blocking its light. Strength or energy exerted or

brought to bear.
The occurrence of Solar and Lunar Eclipses

Solar Eclipse
 Sun’s light is blocked by the Moon
 Moon’s shadow on Earth
 Sun, Moon and Earth are in line
 The moon comes between the sun and the earth and casts a shadow
on part of the earth (New Moon)
 During day
 Occurs 2-5 times/year

Lunar Eclipse
 Sun’s light is blocked by the Earth
 Earth’s shadow on Moon
 Earth comes between the Sun and moon and casts a shadow on the
Moon (Full Moon)
 Sun, Earth and Moon are in line

 During the night

 0 -3 times/year

The teacher will ask question:

1. What are the difference between the Solar and Lunar Eclipses?
2. The Solar Eclipse occur during?
3. The Lunar Eclipse occur during?

 Objective No. 2: Describe the different types of solar and lunar

eclipse

Total Solar Eclipse

 Moon completely covers the Sun.
 Viewers in the path of totality experience darkness.
 Dramatic and rare event.

Total Lunar Eclipse

 Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon.
 Earth's shadow (umbra) covers the Moon.
 Moon may appear reddish (blood moon) during totality.
 Mindanao State University at Naawan

Department of Secondary & Elementary Education

Partial Solar Eclipse

 Moon covers only a part of the Sun.
 Viewers see a crescent-shaped Sun.
 More common than total eclipses.

Partial Lunar Eclipse

 Only part of the Moon enters Earth's umbra.
 Section of the Moon looks darkened.

Annular Solar Eclipse

 Moon is too far from Earth to cover the Sun completely.
 Ring of sunlight (annulus) visible around the Moon.
 Unique "ring of fire" effect.

Penumbral Lunar Eclipse

 Moon passes through Earth's penumbra.
 Subtle shading on the lunar surface.
 Often more challenging to observe.

E. Discussing new concepts and  Objective No. 3: Relate the occurrence of eclipses to the beliefs
practicing new skills #2 and practices of the elders

The myths about eclipse are already part of our Filipino tradition.

During announcement of eclipse that are about to happen, people will

usually tell stories that are as old as time. In most communities in the
Philippines, people's major beliefs are the following:
 During the eclipse, pregnant women are not allowed to go out. They
are usually held inside the house because of the belief that if they will
witness the eclipse, something bad will happen to the baby inside the
womb.

Bakunawa Myth from the Visayans

 According the the legend, there is an eclipse because there is a part

serpent- part dragon creature called a "bakunawa" that is trying to eat
the sun and the moon coming from the seas.

No Scientific Basis

Scientists and astronomers around the world have debunked any such
claims. There is no scientific evidence that solar eclipses can affect
human behaviour, health, or the environment. Scientists, however, do
emphasize that anyone watching a solar eclipse must protect their eyes.

The teacher will ask the students to share their beliefs about Eclipses.

F. Developing mastery (Leads to Sorting Activity!

Formative Assessment 3)
Title: Eclipses Labeling
Objective: Evaluate students' understanding of eclipses, including the
causes

In this activity, the teacher will divide the class into two groups. There are
two pictures depicting different types of Eclipses. Each group will identify,
label, and include the causes of the eclipse in the assigned picture. The
activity is to be completed within 10 minutes.

G. Finding practical applications of 1. Time Management

concepts and skills in daily living
 Understanding the occurrence and timing of solar and lunar eclipses
can reinforce time management skills. Planning activities or events
around celestial events demonstrates the real-world application of
astronomical knowledge.

2. Agriculture and Seasonal Planning

 Farmers can benefit from knowing about eclipses in planning their

agricultural activities. The timing of planting and harvesting can be
aligned with celestial events to optimize crop growth.

H. Making generalizations and The teacher will ask a student to answer the following questions:
abstractions about the lesson  What is Eclipse?
- An object moves into the shadow of another or a celestial object
passes in front of the sun, blocking its light.
 What is Solar and Lunar Eclipses?
- Sun’s light is blocked by the Moon
- Sun’s light is blocked by the Earth
 Give me the three types of Solar and Lunar Eclipses?
- Total, Partial and Annular Solar Eclipse
- Total, Partial and Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
 Mindanao State University at Naawan

Department of Secondary & Elementary Education

Total Solar Eclipse

- The Moon completely covers the Sun, and viewers in the path
of totality experience darkness.
Partial Lunar Eclipse
- Only part of the Moon enters Earth's umbra and the sectioned
of the moon looked darkened
Annular Solar Eclipse
- Moon is too far from Earth to cover the Sun completely and
the ring of sunlight (annulus) visible around the Moon.
