Clue:
1. These are bedrocks in the crust. It may be
in ocean or in the continents.
2. The trembling or shaking of the earth’s
crust.
3. Crack on the earth’s crust.
4. When the plates move toward each other.
It____ one another.
5. It_____ one another, when the plates move
away from each other.
B. Motivation Have you experience an earthquake? What did
you feel?
Yes sir! It was terrifying!
How about volcanic eruptions, have you
experience it? What did you feel?

C. Development of the 1. Presentation

Lesson
There are more than 200 volcanoes in
our country. Volcanoes are classified as active,
potentially active or inactive. An active
volcano is one which has erupted within
historic times (about 600 years in the

Philippines). In the Philippines, there are 22

active volcanoes, five of these are considered
very active. The five most active volcanoes in
the Philippines.

Time Location Volcano No. of

Eruptions

1616- Albay Mt. 47

2018 Mayon

1571- Batangas Mt. Taal 34

2020

1827- Camiguin Mt. 19

1953 Hibok-
hibok

1852- Sorsogon Mt. 17

1994 Bulusan

1866- Negros Mt. 15

1996 Kanlaon

Potentially active volcanoes are those

suspected od seismic activity like Mount Apo
in Davao. Lastly, in active volcanoes show no
record of eruption and its form is beginning to
change like Mt. Makiling in Laguna.

2. Discussion

Effects of Earthquake

1. Earthquakes can destroy lives and

properties.
2. It can change land features.
3. Cracks in the ground may result
from an earthquake.
4. Sand blows, small mound with
craters are formed
5. A tsunami, a Japanese word
meaning a ‘big wave’, is formed
originating from the ocean floor
due to an earthquake.
6. A tsunami has the power to wipe
out structures and living organisms
near the shore. A seiche is a word
meaning a big wave or a lake
usually around 3 meters high that
can flood the surrounding areas,
cover them with debris from the
lake (e.g. lilies)

How to survive Tsunamis

1. Be observant of the tide conditions around

your coastal are. An unusual lowering of

the sea level is a sign that a tsunami is

approaching. Move to high ground
immediately. If you are in a ship,
immediately steer it for deep water.
2. Immediately move to high areas away
from the shore when an earthquake occurs
in your area. This is a warning that a
natural tsunami is on the way. There may
not be enough time for official warnings.
3. A tsunami is a series of waves. Stay out of
danger until the last waves have passed.
4. Listen to tsunami warnings which help
protect you. The tsunami may be
generated by a local event or by an
earthquake very far away.
5. Never watch tsunamis on shore. You may
be to escape the event.
6. A tsunami may be quite small in one area
but very large in another site, many
kilometers away. Remember, the effect of
waves can be changed by the structure of
land under the sea.

Precautionary Measure During and

After Earthquake

 Stay calm, don’t panic.

 Avoid fly-over/overpass.
 Stay under sturdy/strong
furniture.
 Stay away from electric post.
 Go to an open field
 Be prepared

Effects of Volcanic Eruption

When we think of volcanic eruptions, we can

imagine it as pouring fire on the earth’s
surface and burning it. Lava flows out land
thick accumulation of volcanic dust may do
considerate damage to property. The
restructure feature of volcanic activity is the
solid debris. The mixture of debris and gas is
capable of moving down the mountainside.
No living thing can survive its path.
Poisonous fumes and gases coming out of the
crater pollute the environment. But even if
volcanoes eruptions are destructive, some
geologist still believe that volcanoes may be
partly responsible for the air we breathe.
Although they send out poisonous fumes,
they also send out nitrogen hydrogen and
carbon dioxide. People, animals, and plants
need these gases to stay alive. During
volcanic eruption, hydrogen and oxygen are
released which combine to form water but the
most widespread benefit of volcanic eruption

is that they make the soil fertile.

Among the measure necessary before a

volcanic eruption to occur are:
1. Disseminate information among affected
communities. This should give them time
to prepare for possible relocation.
2. Identify possible pathways of lava flows.
3. Seek a safe area for relocation.
4. Store up canned goods and other daily
necessities.
5. Pack up clothes and valuables.
6. Bring animals to safety.
7. Harvest crops.
8. Shut down electrical connections of the
community.
9. Restrict areas within proximity to
possible lava flows.
10. Prepare pathways for lava flows.

During the eruptions:

1. People stay in evacuation centers.

2. Cover your mouth and nose with
wet cloth.
3. Listen for announcement.
After the eruptions:

1. Wait for an official advisory

from the government if it is
safe to return to former
abodes or residential areas.
2. Cultivate the land.
3. Await the advisory from the
agriculturists if it is safe to
plant again.
4. Reconnect electrical
services.
5. Help out in rebuilding the
community.

D. Generalization A Volcano is a land form on the surface of the

earth where molten rocks pass to reach the
surface

Magma Chambers is a reservoir of magma

A vent is a passage way of molten rocks

Crater is a depression at the tip of a volcano
