4. Reviewing Previous Lesson
Using the diagram, describe how the Earth rotates.

5. Asking for diagnostic questions:Asking for
diagnostic questions:
1.What are the two movements of the
earth?
2.With the diagram, how does the Earth
rotate on its axis?
3.Is it from east to west or west to east?
4.Is it clockwise or counterclockwise?
5.How many hours is one complete rotation
or one day?

6. Read the following words.
ENGLISH - FILIPINO - MTB
rotation - pag-ikot - tuyok
Earth - mundo - kalibutan
sun - araw - adlaw
hour - oras - takna
east - silangan - sidlakan
west - kanluran -kasadpan

7. Presenting examples/instances of the new lesson
Think of it.
Describe what the people are doing in the pictures.
Day Time Activities
Night Time Activities
Why are people more active during day time rather than night time?

8. Presenting examples/instances of the new lesson
Think of it.
What makes our activities vary or change during
day time and night time?
Rotation of the Earth
What do you think is our lesson
today base on the diagram?

9. Video Presentation
Set up the standards in viewing a video presentation.

11. Follow up questions about the video clip
presented:
1.What is the video all about?
2.Why do we wake up when it’s daylight?
3.What do you call the earth’s
representation?
4.Can anybody locate the axis of the earth?
5.What do you call the movement of the
earth on its axis?
6.What causes day and night?

13. • Rotation is the movement of the
Earth on its axis.
• The Earth spins in counterclockwise
direction or from west to east.
• Axis is the imaginary line that passes
through the poles at which the Earth
rotates.
• The Earth’s axis is not straight. It is
tilted or slanted by 23.5˚.

14. • It takes 24 hours or one day to make a
complete rotation of the Earth.
• This rotation period is called solar day, or
the time between noon of one day and
noon of the next appearance of the sun
directly overhead.
• During the interval, the Earth moves along
its orbit, or the imaginary path around the
sun, so the sun appears to move eastward
in the sky.

15. Discussing new concepts and practicing new skills #1 (Integration of Numeracy Skills)
Furthering the knowledge of the Earth’s rotation
through an improvised model.
1. Using flashlight which serves as the sun and the globe as the earth,
demonstrate the rotation of the earth. (Emphasized the period of
earth’s rotation(complete rotation = 1 day or 24 hours), the direction
where it starts to rotate, and the earth’s relation to the sun as it
rotates on its axis.)
2. Identify which part of the earth receives the sunlight and the part that
doesn’t receive.
3. Tell what part of the day on the earth that receives sunlight and the
part that doesn’t receive.
4. Based on the given activity, let pupils tell what makes day and night.

16. Ask further:
• How many hours are there in one complete
rotation or one day?
• How many hours do you spend in school?
• How many hours do you spend at home?
• How many hours do you spend sleeping?
• What is the right amount of sleeping hours do
children need in order to be healthy?
• Is it good to stay awake during late night?
Why?
• Why is sleeping in the right number of hours
important?

17. Group Activity-Directions:
1.I will group you into two.
2.Each group will answer different
activity.
3.Don’t be shy in showing what you
have learned. Your questions are
welcome.
4.Finish in 5 minutes.

19. Group Activity Group 2 – Day and Night Activities

20. • CHECKING OF ANSWERS

21. Finding practical applications of concepts and skills in daily living
(Integration of HOTS)
If the Earth will stop from rotating, what effects might it
bring to the earth itself, to the people and other living
organism on it, to the temperature, etc.?

22. Making generalizations and abstractions about the lesson
It is the spinning or movement of the Earth on its
axis from west to east and completed in 24
hours or 1 day.
A. What is rotation?
B. What causes day and night?
The rotation of the earth on its axis

23. Formative Evaluation
Direction: Write TRUE if the statement is correct and FALSE if
it is wrong.
____1. Rotation of the Earth causes night and day.
____2. It takes one year or 365 & ¼ days for the Earth to rotate
completely on its axis.
____3. Different parts of the Earth experience day and night
because the Earth is rotating on its axis.
____4. When the sun shines on the part of the Earth, that part
is night time.
____5. The activities of people on the different parts of the Earth
differ during day time and night time.

24. Homework
