I. OBJECTIVES
A. Content Standards The learners demonstrate an understanding on the factors that affect
climate, and the effects of changing climate, and how to adapt
accordingly.
B. Performance Standards The learners should be able to:
participate in activities that reduce risks and lessen effects of
climate change.
C. Learning Competencies/ The learners should be able to:
Objectives identify the different ocean currents around the world;
explain how ocean surface and circulation directly affect the
pattern of climate around the world; and
appreciate the importance of oceans.

IV. PROCEDURES
A. Reviewing previous lesson Preliminary Activities
(ELICIT) - Prayer
- Greetings
B. Establishing a purpose for the - Checking of attendance
lesson (ENGAGE) - Classroom rules
Recapitulation
JUMBLED LETTERS
Arrange the jumbled letters to form the word.
C. Presenting examples/ The teacher will present two pictures then let the students infer what
instances of the new lesson factor is depicted from the picture.
(EXPLORE)
The teacher will discuss the topic using the following guide questions:
1. What are ocean currents?
- Ocean Currents are the continuous, predictable, directional
movement of seawater driven by gravity, wind and water
density.
2. What causes the direction of ocean currents in northern and
southern hemisphere?
- In the northern hemisphere, the current flows in a clockwise
direction. In the southern hemisphere, the current flows in
counterclockwise direction. These clockwise and
counterclockwise of ocean currents are caused by the Coriolis
Effect.
3. What is the general temperature of ocean currents that flow
away from the equator?
- Ocean currents that flow away from the equator carries warm
water. The air above the warm water has higher temperature.
D. Discussing new concepts and Pre-Activity
practicing new skills #1 - The class will be divided into eight groups. Each group will be
(EXPLAIN) given an activity sheet to answer.
- Instruct the learners to write their answers in the activity sheet
provided within 15 minutes.
Activity Proper
Let the learners perform Activity 6: Ocean Currents (See the attached
activity sheet)
Post Activity
Guide questions will be answered by asking a representative in each
group to discuss or present their answer.
Q1. Identify the different ocean currents in the world.
- Kuroshio Current, Gulf Stream, Agulhas Current, North
Equatorial current, Labrador current, Kamchatka current, East
Australian current, Greenland current.
Q2. What are the different ocean currents that carry warm water?
Give at least three examples.
- Kuroshio Current, Gulf Stream, Agulhas Current, North
Equatorial current
Q3. What are the different ocean currents that carry cold water? Give
at least three examples.
- Labrador current, Kamchatka current, East Australian current,
Greenland current.
Q4. What kind of air does Greenland Current take along? Explain.
- Cold air because it carries cold water from the pole towards
the equator.
Q5. How do the Kamchatka Current and Kuroshio Current affect the
northeastern part and southern part of Japan?
- Kamchatka Current brings cold water to the northeastern part
of Japan making the temperature lower. Kuroshio Current
brings warm water towards southern part of Japan making the
temperature higher.
E. Finding practical applications Values Integration
of concepts and skills in daily
Show the learners a picture of
living. (EXPLAIN)
The Pacific Garbage Patch.
