PRAYER: Before we start, Marvin kindly leads the prayer.

GREETINGS: Good Morning Grade 6-

ATTENDANCE: Class Secretary, tell the class who are absent today?
( Excellent!!!Nice to know that)

Review of the Past Lesson: What was our lesson yesterday, ?

( Very Good!)
So what about the weather? Can you define what weather
is?
(Bravo!!!)
Can someone be like Mang Tani in GMA News?
Can you tell me what our weather forecast this time by
looking outside looking outside the window?
(Good Job!!!) We have a future weather forecaster in our
class.
Amazing!! It seems that you’ve learned a lot in our
yesterday’s discussion. So, are you ready to learn
new topic for today?

Motivation: First, let’s all sing What makes day and night.
(WOW!!!GREAT JOB Class!!) You are all amazing singers!
Thank you for being active.
Unlocking Difficulties: What did you observe in the song? (There are words that
has been underlined)
What are those words and where part of the song you saw it?
(the 1st Chorus the words are 24hours and day and night.
Meanwhile, in the 2nd Chorus, the words are rotate and spin
has been underlined.)
(Great, what about the others?) I saw the underlined words in
the 2nd stanza. The words are one year and 365.25 days. Also
in the Bridge part, the words are revolution, one year, rotation,
one day, and day and night.
Excellent! Based on what we sang and the words underlined that
you’ve been answered.
What do you think is our topic for today? ( I think it’s all about the
Rotation and Revolution of the Earth.)
A great answer indeed!

Discussion: Today class we are about to learn the Earth’s Rotation and
Revolution. We will also know the difference between the
two.
How come there is day and night?
What will happen if the Earth will not rotate?
We will also find out how long does it take for the Earth to travel
around the Sun? Also, what causes the seasons?
First to understand the reasons behind it.
Let us watch a video,
What does the does the video talks about the Earth? (The Earth’s
rotation makes day and night meanwhile the revolution
movement makes a year.)
Great! I think you really watched the video seriously.

Now, for further explanation, WE WILL START TO THE FIRST

MOVEMENT OF EARTH. ROTATION..SO WHAT IS IT?
The Earth is turning on its own axis, this movement is called
rotation. Axis is an imaginary line which runs through the center of
the Earth between North and South poles.
 Let’s have an activity. I have here a flashlight represents (SUn)and
a globe represents (Earth).

I mark off the Philippines in the globe with a tape. I will hold the
flashlight at one meter distance from the globe. I will Spin the
globe slowly. Observe as part of the globe goes into the light and
the other part move out.

So, what do you notice? Did the whole globe receive light from the
flashlight? Obviously, No! It’s because when the other part receives
light, It is dark on the other side that’s not receives light.

The Philippines (SouthEast) faces the light source, other countries

on the opposite part of the globe is on the dark side.

In our activity, we seen the effect of rotation of the Earth.

So, Earth’s rotation causes day and night. The Earth rotates
continuously so day follows night and night follows day.

There are about 12 hours of daytime and 12 hours of night time

which make one whole day.

The Earth rotates in a counter clockwise direction as seen above

the North Pole. As we can see here the Earth rotates
on its own axis in a counter clockwise direction or
from WEST TO EAST.

What are the activities you are doing during night time/ daytime?
Do you think you can still do this if we have a longer night or even
longer days?
Therefore, Life would not have been possible in such extreme
conditions.

Now how about the SECOND MOVEMENT OF THE EARTH.

revolution?

For now, assumed that I draw a large circle

The flashlight as the Sun will stand at the center of the circle,
I will hold the globe as the Earth then will stand at the
circumference of the circle, I will walk around the circle or
orbit around the flashlight as the Sun.

What do you observe? At the same time that the Earth spins on its
axis, it also orbits, or revolves around the Sun.

That is why, this movement of the Earth around the Sun is called
revolution.
Now, this is the computation of the .25 days or the leap year.
So, we added an extra day every four years.

Which means that it is like a slight oval in shape. The Earth follows
a definite path called orbit and travels around the sun in a
counter clockwise direction. Like in rotation, the direction of
the Earth’s spins on its own axis also counterclockwise.

So, the reason that the Earth has seasons is that the Earth is tilted
≈(approximately equal to )23.50 degrees on its axis.
 Generalization: Let us go back in answering our problems.
First, what is the difference between the rotation and
revolution?
(the rotation is the Earth turning on its own axis while
revolution is the Earth revolves around the Sun.) Very
good!
Then, how come there is day and night?
(the Earth’s rotation causes day and night. The portion
of the Earth facing the sun experiences day while the
other half away from the sun experiences night.)
What will happen if the Earth will not rotate?
(The portion of the Earth facing the sun would always
experience day, continues to bring warmth to the
region. Meanwhile the other half would remain in
darkness and be freezing cold all the time.)
How long does it take for the Earth to travel around the Sun?
(The period for the Earth to revolve around the sun is
365.25 days or one year. The .25 days is why every
four years February has 29 days. T This is referred to
as the leap year)
For our last question, what causes seasons?
(The causes of seasons is the axial tilt of the Earth on its
axis while revolving around Sun regulates seasons on
planet Earth with one of the Hemisphere facing away or
towards Sun. The reason the Earth has seasons is
that the Earth is tilted ≈23.50 on its axis.)
Excellent Kids!
Now, you know the difference of Earth’s movement and the
effects of it.
We will have an activity.
Application: Group Activity. I will group you into four. Before we start,
what are the rules to follow in group activity.
Everybody, read……
1. Come prepared and on time.
2. Respect, fellow students – critique ideas, not people
3. Be an active listener; let other member/classmate finish
talking.
4. Help others AND ask for help when YOU need it.
5. Do your fair share of work.
This is your rubric for about 5 minutes you should finish your
activity.
Then tell me how was your experience doing this activity?
Do Earth’s movements have a good or bad effect in
our daily lives?
Checking of Activity: Okay, Group 1 what are your experiences while doing
your activity. Then do Earth’s movement have a good or bad
effect in our daily lives?

Okay Group 2,
Evaluation: Now that you understand well our topic, let’s have another
activity open your slido app. Direction: Read each
sentence. Then choose the letter of the correct answer.

Assignment: And for your assignment, I want you to Make an improvised

model of Sun and Earth to show the Earth rotates on its
axis or showing the revolution of the Earth to the Sun.
So I have here an example of an improvised model of the
Earth’s revolution.

Once again, I am your Ma’am Rean de Leon.
