a. Reviewing previous lesson/s or presenting the new

lesson.

- Who can describe to the class of what is weather? - Weather is the day-to-day condition of the atmosphere.

- How will you differentiate climate from weather? - A climate generally is the prevailing weather for a longer
period of time while weather pertains to a shorter period,
or specifically the daily condition of our atmosphere.
- The different types of weather may be sunny, cloudy,
- What are the different types of weather? rainy or windy.
- A sunny or fair weather usually shows the presence of
- How will you describe a sunny/ cloudy/rainy or windy cirrus clouds in the sky.
weather? - When it is cloudy weather, the sky is covered with
clouds, and so is the sun.

b. Establishing a purpose for the lesson

- The weather can change within a day. Do you know - No teacher, but we eagerly want to find out how the
what factors bring about the weather changes? weather is able to change within a day.
- We’ll find out by performing Activity 10.1 on page 311
of your textbook.
- Kindly work with your assigned group. Listen carefully
as I tell to you the procedures that we will follow upon - The pupils shall go to their respective groups and quietly
performing the activity. listen to the instructions of the teacher.
- Prepare the needed materials for your activity. - The pupils shall prepare the materials needed.
- After performing the activity, your group representative - The pupils shall choose a group reporter and will work
will be discussing your answers. corroboratively along with the guidance of the teacher.

c. Presenting examples/instances of the new lesson/clip that will entertain them

- Before I let your group reporter share your outputs to - The pupils attentively listen to the instructions of the
the class, Let us watch a video about the weather teacher.
elements, which is also connected with the activity that
you’ve worked on. The video will help us in - The pupils watch the video presented to them, while
understanding our lessons about the weather elements. taking note of the questions that are posted on the board.
- While we are watching the video, take note of the
questions that I am posting on the board about the
video and we will answer it later after the presentation
of each group reporter.

d. Discussion (Discussing new concepts)

The group reporters present their output.

1. Where does the smoke go when the incense stick is - The lighted candle heats the air above the first chimney.
placed over the chimney directly above the burning Hot air expands and becomes lighter so it rises up to the
candle? chimney. The rising smoke shows that the direction of
warm air is upward.

- Where does the smoke when the incense stick is - The smoke goes down together with the cold air above
transferred to the other chimney? the cold chimney. Cold air is heavier than warm air. This
cooler air moves in to take the place of warm air. Then,
this air becomes now the rising hot air and also that will
be replaced by the cooler air.

- The movement that was described in the second

chimney is the air movement that we call as convection
current.

Questions from the video:

- When the wind direction blows from sea to land, this is
- How will you describe sea breeze? called a sea breeze. This occurs during daytime.

- When the wind direction blows from land to sea. This

- How will you describe land breeze? occurs during the evening.

- The instrument used to measure wind speed is the

- What instruments is used to measure wind speed? anemometer.

- The instrument used to measure wind direction is the

- What instruments is used to measure wind direction? wind vane.

e. Developing Mastery - presenting the spring board

- Aside from the wind, there are also the air temperature,
air pressure, humidity, the clouds and cloud formation.
This weather elements are the factors that affect the
weather changes and could possibly affect the weather
change in a day.

- For us to understand more about the different weather - The pupils will read and corroboratively answer the
elements, I’ll give you ten minutes to read your textbooks questions about the text.
from pages 311 to 315. After you read, we will answer

 questions about what you have read which is posted on
the board. You may share your ideas with your
classmates after reading.

- What is air temperature? - Air temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness
of the air at a particular time and place.

- How is air temperature measured? - Temperature is measured with the use of a

thermometer.

- What affects air temperature? - Sunlight affects air temperature.

- What affects the hotness or coldness of the air? - The sunlight also affects the hotness and coldness of
the air.

- How is it that the temperature is low in the early part of - During the early part of the day the temperature is low
the day and during late afternoon but the temperature because the sunlight does not go directly to the earth’s

direct light to the earth.

- What is air pressure? - It refers to the force exerted by the air around us.

- What happens when the air pressure is low? What is the - When the air pressure is low, it means that there will be
result of a low pressure? a bad weather.

- What is humidity? - It is a measure of the amount of water vapor in the

atmosphere.

- What happens when air holds less water vapor? - The air is cold when it holds less water vapor.

- How are clouds and fogs formed? - Clouds and fogs are made of droplets of water that start
to form around tiny grains of dust and smoke in the air.
f. Application

- Each group will present a pantomime or an action song - The pupils will do an action song that shows activities
that shows activities that could be done or cannot be that can be done or not in the given weather conditions.
done under the different weather conditions;

Group 1 Strong Wind - Fly kite, dry clothes, staying at home…etc.

Group 2 Hot Weather/ Cold Weather - Wear a jacket, join the family outing, eat hot meals..etc.

- Staying at home because of possible typhoons

Group 3 Low Air Pressure
- Playing outside, etc.
Group 4 Cloudy and not cloudy weather

e. Generalization

- What are the different weather elements? - The weather elements are wind, air temperature, air
pressure, humidity, the clouds and cloud formation.

- When the wind direction blows from sea to land, this is

- How do each elements affect the weather condition? called a sea breeze. This occurs during daytime.

- When the wind direction blows from land to sea. This

occurs during the evening.

- During the early part of the day the temperature is low

because the sunlight does not go directly to the earth’s
surface. While it’s hottest during noon because of it’s
direct light to the earth.

- When the air pressure is low, it means that there will be

a bad weather.
