Editor's Notes
- In order for us to know what our topic is all about, I have here pictures. (The teacher will flash pictures on the monitor)
- What can you see? Yes _____. Very well said _______. From those observations, who can tell what our lesson is for today? Yes ____. Almost there _____. Thank you. Who has an idea? Anyone? Yes _____. Precisely! Thank you _____.

What effects of earthquakes did you observed? Can you give me one? Yes ____. Thank you _____. That’s right! Earthquake results to a landslide. (Shows picture of a landslide due to earthquake)
- What do you think is the reason why landslides occur during earthquakes? Do you have an idea _____? That’s right ______! Landslides happen during earthquake because the loose rocks and soil along the mountainside will erode due to the movement of the earth’s crust. What other effects you have observe specially on the ground? Yes ____. Correct! Thank you ____. (Shows a picture of cracks/openings on the ground)
- So, why there are huge cracks or openings on the ground? Yes, _______. That’s a good idea, ______! Remember class, that an earthquake is a sudden release of earth’s interior energy. So when this happen during a very strong earthquake, the ground may be lifted up or separated and this will cause the huge cracks or opening in the ground. Who can give another effect of earthquakes from the news? Okay, ______. Yes, ____. Underwater earthquakes may cause tsunamis. But what is a tsunami by the way? Anyone? Okay, ____.
- Right. Thank you ____. A tsunami is a very huge wave generated by an earthquake. (Shows a picture of a tsunami) Tsunami is a Japanese term which means literally “tidal wave”. In the video I presented a while ago, there are also other effects of earthquakes, not mention by your classmates, right? Now, what are the other effects of earthquakes specifically on people and other living organisms? Yes _____.
- Very good _____. When an earthquake hits a certain place it can destroy a habitat or dwelling places of living organisms such as humans. It can destroy our houses and buildings. On the other hand, other living organisms who dwells in land are also affected because their habitats may be prone to landslides or tsunamis due to an earthquake. Another effect of earthquakes on living organisms. Yes _____.
- Well said, _____. One of the most devastating effects of earthquakes and other calamities is death. True, we can build back our homes and establishments. But a loss life cannot be regain, it is the only effect that earthquakes and other calamities cannot rebuilt. Anyways, so much for the sentimental moments. Aside from those negative effects, do you think class that an earthquake has a positive or beneficial effect? And what is it _______?
- Yes, that’s it! Thank you for the brilliant idea ____. We know that earthquakes happen due to the movement of the crustal plates. When these crustal plates collides, separates or pass through each other there will be different formation of land forms such as mountains, hills, valleys and many more. However, it takes thousands or millions of years for these land formations to occur. It does not mean that in one earthquake there will be a major land transformation. It takes hundreds of earthquakes to form them. But anyways, don’t bother yourself too much about that we will discuss it deeper on our next topics. However, if I may ask, is it necessary for us to study about the effects of earthquakes? Why do you say so? Yes ____. That’s right, ______! This means that by studying the effects of earthquakes we can open our eyes to the possible scenarios that will happen when hit by an earthquake by that we will now know how to cope when the situation arises. d. Drill Thus, to strengthen your understanding of the lesson. This time we will have a group activity. (The teacher will assign the groupings) Okay. Each group will have a different task.
