4. EXPLAIN (10 minutes)

Analysis:
1. Why do you think we have different climatic condition on Earth?
2. Is it natural or man-made?
Abstraction:

Climate is the long–term pattern of weather in a particular region.

Weather is the atmospheric condition of a specific place at a particular period.

Factors that affect climate

1. latitude (distance from the equator),

2. altitude (elevation above sea level),
3. distance from the ocean, and
4. ocean currents.

1. Latitude (distance from the equator)

In the figure above, you have noticed that most of the sun’s rays strike vertically in places
near the equator. This makes the temperature higher in these areas because they received
much of the radiant energy that results in a warm climate. Places that do not always
receive Sun’s rays directly experience a cold climate.

2. Altitude (elevation above sea level)

Locations at a higher altitude have a colder temperature. The temperature usually decreases
by 6.5°C for every 1000 meters altitude. This is possible because, at higher elevations, there
is less air. The air molecules are farther apart, thus making the air less dense. Lighter air

cannot absorb much heat, making air temperature lower. Ultimately, the decrease in air
temperature is due to the decrease in air pressure.

5. ELABORATE (15 minutes)

Pair Activity:
The teacher will assign pairs through counting.
 Using the map of the Philippines, locate the specific places with climates that belong
to Type I, Type II, Type III, and Type IV based on the country's rainfall distribution.
Then answer the following questions.

Guide questions:
1. What are those specific places/areas with Type I climate? Type II climate? Type
III? And Type IV? Name at least 5 for each type.
2. Why do we have different patterns of rainfall distribution here in the Philippines?
3. Which factor affects each of the four types of climates based on rainfall
distribution in the Philippines?

6. EVALUATE “Quiz” (6 minutes)

Read the questions carefully. Choose the letter of the best answer and write it on a
separate sheet of paper.
