“Science is Fun”.

3. Checking Attendance None, Sir.

Is there any absent in the class?

Excellent!
 4. Setting of Classroom Rules
Before we start our lesson, let us
first recall our classroom rules.
Who can give me the first rule? Sit properly.

Correct. What are the others? Be quite.

Listen attentively.
Participate.
B. Developmental Activities

1. Drill
Let us have a game. I will show
you a series of letters. Arrange
them properly to find the hidden
words.

D. Engage
Let us examine the following
pictures of what I have showed
you earlier.

These are the pictures of different

seasons in some places around
the world. Some countries have
four seasons Spring, Summer,
Autumn, and Winter. Some
countries has only two seasons
Dry and Wet/Monsoon Season.

Why do you think these happen? Sir, maybe the position of the earth varies
as it is revolving around the sun.

You have a point. What else? (The students will give other answers.)

Do other countries experience the (The students will give their answers.)
same seasons?
 Why do you think these are (The students will give their answers.)

E. Explore
Now we will have an activity. I will
group you into five.

You will have to perform this two

activities.

Before we do that, let us recall the

guidelines in doing an activity.
What is the first step? Be cooperative.

That’s right. What else? Show respect to your groupmates.

Don’t disturb other groups.
Follow directions correctly.

Let us start the activity.

F. Explain
Let us examine and hear your
observations in the activity.
Each group shall have a (The students will present their work.)
designated speakers to present
what they’ve observe in
performing the activities.

(The teacher will assist the

learners in the presentation. The
teacher will give the correct
scientific term for every needed
observation.)

Activity 1

Why do seasons change? Based During the activity, we observed that

on your observation. sometimes the direct rays of the Sun will hit
the Northern Hemisphere, and at other
times the direct rays will strike the Southern
Hemisphere. Whichever hemisphere
receives the direct rays of the Sun, that
hemisphere will experience summer. In the
 meantime, the other hemisphere will receive
oblique rays and it will be winter there.

How can you relate the variation of
seasons experience some part of
the
globe?
Yes, that is right!
When the direct rays of the Sun hit the
Northern Hemisphere, it will be summer
there. At exactly the same time, it is winter
in the other hemisphere, the Southern
Hemisphere. But since the Earth moves
around the Sun, the Earth will soon reach
the other side of its orbit. There, it will be the
Southern Hemisphere which will receive the
direct rays from the Sun. This time it will be
the Southern Hemisphere which will
experience summer, and the Northern
Hemisphere will experience winter.

Activity 2

How does length of daytime and During certain months, the days become
nighttime affects the season? short while the nights grow longer. But
during other months, the opposite occurs.

Very good, that is correct!

G. Elaborate

Why do seasons change?

The warm season is brought on by

the direct rays of the Sun. But
since the Earth is tilted, only one
hemisphere receives direct rays at
any one time and that hemisphere
will experience summer at that
time. Since the Earth goes around
the Sun, there will come a time
when the other hemisphere will
receive the Sun’s direct rays and
that hemisphere will experience
summer at that time.

When one hemisphere of the

Earth is experiencing summer, the
other hemisphere experiences
winter.
We do not experience winter in the
Philippines because we are too
near the equator. But we are
happy nonetheless to experience
a cold December, January and
February.

Direct rays mean that the rays of

the Sun hit the ground at 90
degrees. The rays are vertical or
perpendicular to the ground. When
the Sun’s rays strike the ground at
a high angle, each square meter of
the ground receives a greater
amount of solar energy than when
the rays are inclined. The result is
greater warming.

How does the length of daytime

and nighttime affect the season?

Longer hours of daylight mean that

the Sun is in the sky for a longer
time. Thus, there is a longer time
to heat up the surface of the Earth.
And a short night means the time
to cool down is less. So the heat
adds up day after day. The result
is summer. In contrast, a short day
means a shorter time that the Sun
is in the sky and there is less time
for the surface of the Earth to
warm up. And a long night means
there is more time to cool down.
This leads to the cold months that
we are familiar with.

To further understand the lesson, (The students will do the activity.)

watch the video embedded on the
link below. Make a poster about
the relationship of the tilt of the
Earth to the length of daytime.

1. Imagine that you live in North America and one day you call up your
friend in Australia. You guys are talking, and you make plans to go visit
him next summer. In a few months, July rolls around, and you hop on a
plane for your Australian vacation. Imagine your surprise when you show
up at his house, and he tells you “It's the middle of winter.” It's the middle
of summer back in America. How can it be summer in America and winter
in Australia at the same time?
