A. Awareness

Good day, class! Good day, Ma’am.

Before we start with our lesson, let us have

a prayer first. (sign of the Cross)
 (Prayer leader leads the prayer.)

Okay, kindly clean up your space or table

and remove things that could distract you at
the count of five. 1 2 3 4 5. (Students do as told.)

How are you this afternoon? We are fine, Ma’am.

That is good to hear.

Since it is my first time teaching in this

class. I will introduce myself first.

So, hi everyone, I am Miss Cathylen M.

Durias and you can call me Teacher Cathy.
And I will be your science teacher for today.

In class, as a teacher, I also have rules.

Am I already pinned in your screen class?

Class, I have prepared a bond paper here. I

want everyone’s attention and observe
what I will do.

Yes, Teacher Cathy.

Brilliant! The Earth’s surface will also have

a break on the ground.

Do you know that this break can be

classified as a plate boundary depending
on how each plate moves, class?

Now, do you want to know about plate

boundaries and its different types, class?

The three movements of plates are moving
Do you have any questions regarding the apart, moving toward each other, and

 C. Analysis

If none, what are the three movements or

motions of the plates you identified from our
activity? When plates are moving apart from each
other it means they are going in opposite
directions, Teacher Cathy.

That is correct!

When we say that the plates are moving

apart from each other, in what direction are
the plates going, class?

Exactly! It is what we call a divergent

boundary. The space created by this Plates that are moving toward each other

boundary class?

Very well said! None, Teacher Cathy.

Again class, what are the different types of

plate boundaries?

Very good! Do you have any questions or

clarifications, class?

D. Abstraction

Since none, let us deepen your

understanding about each type of plate
boundary.

Each type of plate boundaries class can

occur in different types of plates.

Divergent boundary on the other hand, can

occur between two oceanic plates or
between two continental plates while
Convergent boundaries occur between two
oceanic plates, between two continental
plates, or between oceanic and continental
plates. And lastly, transform plate
boundaries can occur between two oceanic
plates, or between two continental plates.
When divergent boundary occurs between
two oceanic plates it will result to the
formation of mid-oceanic ridges. Example
for that is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge in Iceland.

Now, if a divergent boundary occurs When a divergent boundary occurs between

valley is the African Rift Valley.

Again, when a divergent boundary occurs

between two oceanic plates, what will be When a divergent boundary occurs between

formed, Teacher Cathy.

Very good! How about when a divergent

boundary occurs between continental
plates class? What will be formed?

Perfect!

Let us move on to Convergent boundary.

Convergent boundary can occur between

an oceanic plate and a continental plate,
between two oceanic plates, and between
two continental plates.

When convergent boundary occurs

between oceanic plate and a continental
plate it will result to subduction where in the
oceanic crust is subducted under the
continental crust.

Meanwhile, when convergent boundary

occurs between two oceanic plates it will
result to the formation of trenches like the
famous Mariana’s Trench.
Yes, Teacher Cathy.
And lastly, when convergent boundary
occurs between two continental plates it will
result to the formation of mountains like

Alright! What will happen when convergent

and a continental plate class?

You are right. We talked about plate

Teacher Cathy.

What will happen again class, if there is a

movement on the Earth’s surface? No, Teacher Cathy.

Exactly! Do these movements of plates

follow a schedule or a timeline, class?

People should always be prepared and

when and where they are going to occur.
Since these movements can occur anytime
and anywhere they want, what do you think
should people do? We should be aware to avoid danger and
accidents, and keep ourselves safe,
Teacher Cathy.

Why do we need to be aware, class?

No, Teacher Cathy.

Absolutely! Nobody knows what might
happen next. Is awareness limited to
environmental awareness, class? Aside from being aware of what is
happening to the environment, we should
also have self-awareness, Teacher Cathy.
In what other aspects should we be aware?

We can have self-awareness by being

vigilant on what is happening around us and
by knowing ourselves.
How can we be aware of ourselves or
how can we have self-awareness, class?

Yes, Teacher Cathy.

Exactly! Knowing ourselves is the first step
to a good self-awareness.

Are you being aware of yourselves,

class?
Yes, Teacher Cathy.

That is good to hear. Never forget to take

good care of yourself especially at the most
difficult times. Is that clear? None, Teacher Cathy.

Good. Do you have any questions or

clarifications about the topic?

If none, let us check your mastery on our

topic through an activity.
