“Very well said! What are the things
you need to prepare in case there is a
typhoon?”
houses
*Typhoons can also affect the natural
environment, and cause harm to trees
and other vegetation, including crops
that communities may rely on for
sustenance or trade, or both.)
(Pupils will give various answers like;

*In case there is a typhoon we need to

 prepare our First Aid kits, Extra
batteries for flashlights and mobile
phones, Store food, Packed clothes in
case of evacuation and a clean and
“Very Good!” safe drinking water.)

Unlocking of difficulties

Kph – Kilometers per hour

PAGASA- Philippine Atmospheric,
Geophysical and Astronomical Service
Administration

“Before we proceed to our next topic

let me check first if you are familiar
with some terms that I will post on the
board.”

(Teacher will post ‘Kph’)

(Pupil will raise his hand; “Kph stands

“Correct!” for Kilometers per hour.)

(Teacher will post PAGASA)

(Pupil will raise his hand; “PAGASA

stands for Philippine Atmospheric,
Geophysical and Astronomical Service
Administration.”)
“Excellent!”

f. Motivation

“Do you always watch the news or listen

to a radio broadcast whenever there’s
a typhoon?”

“Great, if that so, I assume that you’ve

heard of storm signals?” “Yes ma’am!”
“So what are the storm signals?”
“Very good! now I will show you
pictures of places affected by
different typhoons, I want you to
describe what you see on the picture
and try to guess the signal that was
raised. Are you ready?”
(teacher will show this picture)
(Teacher will reveal if the guess of the
pupil is correct.)
“Great job! this place is in Isabela
Cagayan. Their place was affected with
typhoon Lawin.”
(Teacher will show the second picture.)
“Yes ma’am!”
“The storm signals are; signal number
one, storm signal number two, storm
signal number three, storm signal
number four and storm signal number
five.”
“Yes ma’am!”
(Pupil will raise hand and say;
“On the picture some trees were
uprooted from the ground also lots of
leaves are scattered. It looks like the
wind during that time was really
strong but I’m guessing that the signal
for that place is Signal 1.”)
(Pupil will raise his hand and say;

“Correct! This picture shows the signal
number 2 of typhoon Lando in a
particular area in the Philippines.”
“On the picture there are banana
tress uprooted on the ground. I think
it’s in signal 2.”)

(Teacher will show the next picture)

(Pupil will raise his hand and say;

“Based on the picture some light posts
are down and there are uprooted
trees. I’m guessing that it’s in signal
“Great observation and you are
3.”)
correct! Now I will show you another
picture.”

(Pupil will raise his hand and say;

“Based on the picture there are a lot

of damages like even houses made of
concrete are seriously damaged. It’s in
“Very good! this photo shows the signal 4.”)
damage that was made by Typhoon
Yolanda in Tacloban City. It is the
strongest typhoon that hit the
Philippines.”

“Great job!”

(Teacher will show the last picture.) (Pupils are listening)


“Correct! So far Philippines has not yet
experienced a typhoon signal number
five.”
“The place looks very devastating,
there are no houses seen on the
picture and all of the trees are
uprooted. I guess it’s in signal number
five.”

g. Presentation

board, try to analyze the data
presented.” (Pupils will analyze the chart.)

“Why do we have storm signals?”

“Very good! when PAGASA raised
storm signal no. 1 in an area, what does

“Very good! what would be the impact
of the wind?”
“How about when signal number two is

is expected in that area and Irregular
rains may be expected in at least 36
hours.”
“No damage to very light damage.”
“If signal number two is raised it
indicates Winds of greater than 60
kph and up to 100 kph may be
expected in at least 24 hours.”
“Light to moderate damage to the
exposed communities, it means Some
coconut trees may tilt; some of them
may break, few big trees may be
uprooted, many banana plants may be
downed and old galvanized iron roofing
may be peeled off. “
“Winds of greater than 100 kph up to
185 kph may be expected in at least 18
hours.”
“Many coconut trees may be broken or
destroyed.
Almost all banana plants may be
downed and a large number of trees
may be uprooted.
Rice and corn crops may suffer heavy
losses.
Majority of light material houses may
be unroofed or destroyed. There may
be considerable damage to structures
of light to medium construction.

“Very well said! In an instance, Signal
number four is raised what does it
indicate? Is it different from the first
three signals?”
“Excellent! What is it’s wind impact?”
“Great explanation! As what I have said
earlier PAGASA has modified the
storm signals and added signal number
five. When signal number five is raise
in an area what does it imply?”
“How does the wind impact?”
There may be widespread disruption
of electrical power and communication
services.
In general, moderate to heavy damage
may be experienced, particularly in the
agricultural and industrial sectors.”
“In signal number four the typhoon has
a very strong winds of more than 185
kph may be expected in at least 12
hours. It is different from the first
three typhoons because it has a
stronger wind impact.”
“Coconut plantations may suffer
extensive damage, many large trees
may be uprooted,
most residential and institutional
buildings of mixed construction may be
severely damaged,
electrical power distribution and
communication services may be
severely disrupted and
damage to affected communities can
be very heavy.”
“The signal number five implies that
winds is more than 220 kph and maybe
expected in 12 hours.”
“The wind impact is very heavy to
widespread damage. It can make a
whole community homeless because
houses even made in stones will be
gravely destroyed.”
“That is correct!”

h. Practice

Match each typhoon signals with their

corresponding speed of the wind.

Signal no. 1 60kph-100kph

Signal no. 2 30kph-60kph
Signal no. 3 185-220kph
Signal no. 4 more than 220kph
Signal no. 5 100-185kph (Pupils will answer on a piece of paper)

I. Application

Group 1 – News reporting about Storm

warning signal

Group 2 – Role playing on how you’re

going to prepare if there’s a typhoon.

“Class, we are going to perform a group

activity. So I will divide you into two
groups, let’s start counting from the
left side. Start counting: 1,2…….
Alright. each group should stay in their
assigned table. I will discuss to you
what will be your activity for today. Do
you understand?”

“Group 1, you are going to perform a

news reporting based on our lesson
about the storm warning signals, you’re
going to give us information about the
typhoon and give us warnings if it is
signal 1,2,3,4 or 5. Do you understand?”

“Group 2, you are going to make a scene

on preparing for the incoming typhoon.
Show us the right things to do on how
to be prepared. Do you understand?”
“I will give you five minutes to prepare.
We are going to start after five
minutes” (Pupils will perform by group.)

GROUP 1
News reporting
Good morning televiewers!
You’re watching News Tv!
Our news for today is all about the
typhoon.
Tropical Storm Urduja slightly
intensified before dawn on Friday,
December 15, as it moved slowly off
the eastern coast of Samar Island. In
a bulletin issued 5 am on Friday, state
weather bureau PAGASA said Urduja
now has maximum winds of 75
kilometers per hour (km/h) from the
previous 65 km/h and gustiness of up
to 90 km/h. Due to Urduja's
extremely slow movement, its
expected landfall has been pushed
back to either Saturday morning or

afternoon, December 16. Signal

number 2 remains raised over Eastern
Samar, Northern Samar, Samar,
Biliran Signal no. 1 meanwhile, is still
up in: Catanduanes, Camarines Sur,
Albay, Sorsogon, Romblon, Leyte,
Southern Leyte, Northern Iloilo,
Aklan, and Dinagat Islands. PAGASA
warned that Urduja is bringing
moderate to heavy rain within its 500-
kilometer diameter. Residents of
provinces in the tropical storm's path
must prepare. Always remember, that
the person who is prompt is definitely
safe. Again you’re watching News Tv.
Thank you for watching.

Group 2
Role – playing
Narrator: In the village of Hallen,
there’s a family who always watching
News in the television. One day, when
Steven change the channel, he saw the
news about the storm that will hit
their village it was in signal no.4 the
speed of the wind is 230kph. He
immediately called his father and tell
him.
Steven: Daddy, Let’s watch the news
on Tv because I saw/heard that there
will be a typhoon coming in our place!
Daddy: Okay I’ll watch.
Narrator: After his dad watched the
news, his father called his wife and his
two daughters. Here’s what he told
them.
Daddy: My wife, we should get ready
for the storm that will come soon in
our place.
Wife: Yes, we should. Let’s pack our
things that we need to bring in case
we need to evacuate. Karla and Grace
pack your important things in case we
will need for emergency.
Karla and Grace: Yes, mommy!
Narrator: Karla and Grace have
prepared canned goods, flashlight,

j. Generalization
“How many Storm Signals do we have?”
“Very good. So based on our discussion
we have Five Storm Signals. Why do
you think PAGASA has created the
Storm Signal System?”
“Why did PAGASA added signal number
five in the Storm Signal System?”
“Does it indicate that some typhoons
are serious and some are not? Why?”
radio, batteries for flashlight and
radio, blanket, clothes and water, and
they put it on their bag packs. They
already have their emergency kit.
After that, their dad asks them.
Daddy: My daughters, are you ready?
Karla and Grace: Yes, dad!
Narrator: After 1 day, the family are
still together, and they are safe from
the typhoon and no casualty in their
family. The end.
“We have five storm signals.”
“The PAGASA has created the Storm
Signal System because our country is
often visited by typhoons and in order
for us to be aware on what
preparations we’re going to do. The
Storm Signal System will help us.”
“The PAGASA added signal number
five in the Storm Signal System to
give warning on a tropical cyclone
winds of more than 220 kph that are
expected within 12 hours, it is also
considered as a super typhoon. It is to
raise public awareness so that they
will take signal warnings seriously.”
“No because even if it is in signal 1, 2
or 3 we should always remain vigilant
specially when it comes to the safety
 of our family members. Let us not take
typhoons lightly and act accordingly to
what PAGASA is telling because they
are there to guide us and inform us.”
k. Valuing

“We are now living in a generation

where it is easy for us to access
information. Relating with our topic,
how can technologies help us in times
of typhoons?”
“In times of typhoons it is always
important for us to watch or listen on
news and because of technologies it is
much easier for us to get informed
because we can access on weather
news, read articles about typhoons
that are about to come and it help us
to be more prepared and avoid serious
damages that a typhoon may cause us.”

“Very good! now on a piece of paper

answer this.”
