What are the changes on
the Earth’s surface as a

1. What happened in the video?
2. If you were in the same
situation what will you do?
Earthquakes can and will occur when we
least expect them. Disaster preparedness
is the key to effective planning and
response to these unexpected events. To
avoid unnecessary property damage or
death during these natural disasters,
precautionary steps should be taken.
For today’s discussion we will find out
what are things you need to do
before, during, and after an
earthquake.
Safety Precautions Before,
During, and After an Earthquake
DIRECTIONS: Put a checkmark
in the box with correct safety
precautions before, during, and
after an earthquake.
Write the letter of the things that you will
include in your survival kit inside the bag.
Earthquake is unpredictable, that is why we
need to be aware and prepared by knowing
what to do before, during and after.
Earthquakes affect the family, the society
and environment. As a student, how can
you promote the importance of earthquake
awareness and preparedness?
 REMEMBER
✔:An earthquake can have devastating effects on
people and the environment.
✔ You and your family will have a greater chance of
surviving these natural disasters if you practice
precautionary measures before, during, and after an
earthquake.
✔ Preparedness will reduce the number of casualties
or injured, which is why you should have a plan
ahead of time in case of these natural disasters.
Make a poster slogan on what to do
before, during and after an earthquake.
Discuss with your family
members your evacuation
plan in case that earthquake
hits your place.

Changes on the Surface of A
the Earth as a Result of
Volcanic Eruption Y

QUARTER 4 WEEK 2
In the last lesson, you
learned about the changes
on the earth’s surface as a
result of volcanic eruption.
Can you give some
examples.
Let’s look at the picture below.
Why is it called as the pacific
ring of fire?
Tectonic plate movement has caused
much of the world's volcanoes to form in
the Pacific Ring of Fire. The Philippines is
situated in this area, where many tectonic
plates collide. With active volcanoes in the
Philippines, the country is vulnerable to a
variety of disasters caused by volcanic
eruptions and their consequences.
Volcanic eruptions have the potential to
cause mass destruction and major
environmental damage. Lava destroys
forests and everything in its way, and
lahars can cause massive flooding in some
areas. All species, including humans,
suffer serious health consequences as a
result of this activity.
Volcanic eruptions may be quiet or violent,
resulting in dangerous lava flows, toxic
gases, and airborne rocks and ash. Such
natural hazards, such as earthquakes,
landslides, debris flows, flash floods,
explosions, and tsunamis, are often
associated with volcanic eruptions. If you
live near an active or inactive volcano, be
ready to act quickly.
Safety Precautions
Before, During, and
After Volcanic
Eruption
Write B if the precaution is done before
volcanic eruption; D if during volcanic
eruption and A if after volcanic eruption.
_____ 1. Prepare evacuation plans and conduct
evacuation drills.
_____ 2. Avoid running car or truck engines.
_____ 3. Bring animals and livestock into safe
shelters.
_____ 4. Clear the canals and pathways of ash and
other debris.
______5. Prepare a survival kit.
Write True if the statement is correct and
False if is wrong.
______ 1. People and the environment benefit from
volcanic eruptions.
______ 2. Precautionary measures should be followed
before, during and after
volcanic eruptions.
______ 3. Avoid low-lying areas where lava flow could
reach and poisonous gases can collect is a
precautionary measure after volcanic eruptions.
Write True if the statement is correct and
False if is wrong.

______ 4. Evacuate after volcano erupts.

______ 5. Listen to a battery –powered radio or
television for the latest emergency information after
the volcano erupts.
There is a huge explosion. Dust,
steam, and pyroclastic materials are
expelled into the atmosphere. A fast-
moving flow of hot volcanic materials
followed. What should you do in this
situation?
REMEMBER
:✔ Volcanic eruption can have devastating effects on people
and the environment.
✔ You and your family will have a greater chance of
surviving these natural disasters if you practice
precautionary measures before, during, and after an
earthquake or volcanic eruption.
✔ Preparedness will reduce the number of casualties or
injured, which is why you should have a plan ahead of
time in case of these natural disasters.

Collect pictures of volcano erupted from
the year 2015 up to 2023. Write the
details where the volcano erupted and
how the people overcome to it. Place
your
collected pictures in a long bond paper
and attached it in your portfolio.
