Teaching Plan

3.1 Curriculum

ISAT U-Laboratory School uses the K-12 curriculum. This curriculum leads to science. Science education aims to develop scientific literacy among students that will prepare them to be informed and participative citizens who can make judgments and decisions regarding the application of scientific knowledge that may have social, health, or environmental impacts. This curriculum it integrates science and technology in the civic, personal, social, economic, and the values ​​and ethical aspects of life. As a whole, the K to 12 science curriculum is learner-centered and inquiry-based, emphasizing the use of evidence in constructing explanations.
Concepts and skills in Life Sciences, Physics, Chemistry, and Earth Sciences are presented with  increasing levels of complexity from one grade level to another (spiral progression), thus paving the way to deeper understanding of a few concepts. These concepts and skills are integrated rather than disciplinebased, stressing the connections across science topics and other disciplines as well as applications of concepts and thinking skills to real life. In this curriculum  have standard for science learning area for k-3, 4-6, 7-10 and 11-12.

4.      Motivation I have a video here that discuss some details about the location of the Philippines.
B.  Explore
1.      Grouping of Students -       Students are divided into two groups	Group 1 and 2
2.      Setting of Standards -       You must cooperate with your group mates through sharing of ideas in a moderate voice only.
3.      Group Activity -       Each group must choose two representatives to present their work. -       The activity must be finish within 10 minutes. Instruction: Each group will be given a map that contains a star in the different continents/country. Identify those continents/country marked by star. The activity starts now.
C. Explain
1.      Reporting Group 1 will be the first to present their work and the rest will follow.
2.      Discussion Location of the Philippines Two ways to define the location of a place: 1.      Relative location -          The location is in relation to other places. 2.      Absolute location -          It references a place on the earth’s surface based on specific geographic coordinates, such as latitude and longitude. ·         The philippines is bounded by the luzon strait to the north, the philippine sea to the east, the west philippine and sulu seas to the west and the celebes sea to the south Globe ·         Used to illustrate the absolute location of places on earth. ·         It is a three-dimensional model that can be subdivided with imaginary lines called latitude (horizontal) and longitude (vertical). ·         The exact geographical location of the Philippines on the world map is a range of latitude ang longitude coordinates. ·         The philippines is located between 5º to 21º north latitude and 114º to 127º  east longitude. Latitude lines run horizontally around the globe. The equator is a horizontal line, designated as a zero degree (0º) latitude and divides the globe into northern and southern hemispheres. Longitude lines run vertically across the globe, beginning from the north pole going toward the south pole. In map there are lines of latitude and longitude are used to locate a spesific place on the map. Two lines delineate the eastern and western halves of the globe: ·         Prime meridian - is designated as zero degree (0º) longitude and passes through the town of Greenwich in England. ·         Antimeridian -          Directly opposite of the prime meridian -          Also known as International Date Line, designated as 180º longitude. ·         Longitudinal lines indicate how far east or west a certain location is with reference to the prime meridian. ·         The philippines is located between 114º to 127ºE, which means it lies to the east of the Greenwich, England and to the west of the antermeridian. How to Read Maps Maps ·         are two dimensional drawings or three-dimensional representations of a particular area. ·         It shows the location of the countries on the world and the bodies of water surrounding them. ·         Latitudinal lines run horizontally across the map to designate a position north or south of the equator. ·         Longitudinal lines run vertically across the map, perpendicular to the latitudinal lines, and designate an east to west position on the globe. ·         The coordinates are measured in degrees (⁰), minutes (′), and seconds (″), where there are 60 seconds in one minute and 60 minutes in one degree.  ·         Latitudinal lines go from 0⁰ to 90⁰ N for the northern half of Earth above the equator, 0⁰ to 90⁰ S for countries south of the equator. ·         Longitudinal lines run from 0⁰ to 180⁰ E or W on Earth’s surface. ·         The equator is designated as zero degrees latitude, and the prime meridian, which passes through Greenwich, is designated as the reference zero degrees longitude.
3.      Generalization So, Let’s see if you have learned something about our today’s topic. Where is the Philippines located in the map? What is the two imaginary lines in the globe? What is the difference between map and globe?	The philippines is located between 5º to 21º north latitude and 114º to 127º  east longitude. Latitudinal and longitudinal lines Map is a two dimensional drawing or three-dimensional representation of a particular area while globe is a three-dimensional model that can be subdivided with imaginary lines.

C.  Explain
1.    Reporting Group 1 will be the first to present their work and the rest will follow.
2.    Discussion a.       Shaping the landscape There are natural forces and humanmade activities. Natural forces some forces have been acting on and shaping the surface of earth throughout its history. This concept is known as the principle of uniformitarianism. Volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, weathering, erosion, landslides, storms in the past have changed the landscape. These events still and will continue to shape earth’s surface today, but at different rates and intensities. Volcanic eruptions may release tons of dust and ash, life-threatening gases, and hot molten rocks onto eart’s surface. The accumulation of volcanic materials will inevitably alter the landscape right after the eruption, but it also eventually increases the fertility of the region once the volcanic materials weather into soil. Humanmade forces , the rise in population and demand for human settlement has reduced the number of prime lands that are used for food production and has led to the destruction of the habitats of many differents species of plants and animal life. Also, because of improper land use, soil erosion has resulted in severe loss of topsoil, deterioration of agricultural lands, increased occurrence of flooding and increased sedimentation of rivers, lakes and reservoirs.
3.      Generalization So, Let’s see if you have learned something about our today’s topic. What are the natural forces?	-          The natural forces are volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, weathering, erosion, landslides, storms, and floods.
