strategies to reduce exposure and vulnerability.
W8_Day 3
• Compare different geological and hydrometeorological hazards
and assess community-level prevention and mitigation
strategies.
W8_Day 4
• Describe what the heat index is and explain how PAGASA’s
iHEAT maps present temperature and humidity data.

Natural Hazards, Disasters, Prevention
and Mitigation, Preparedness, and
Adaptation
● Describe how the PAGASA iHEAT
(Heat Index) maps provide Filipinos
with the knowledge they need to
take proactive measures to protect
themselves from heat related
illnesses.
W9_Day 1
• Interpret the color codes and risk categories in iHEAT maps to
identify levels of heat-related danger.
W9_Day 2
• Identify common heat-related illnesses and explain how iHEAT
information helps predict when these conditions are more likely
to occur.
W9_Day 3
• Describe the preventive actions individuals and communities can
take based on iHEAT map advisories.
W9_Day 4
• Describe how the PAGASA iHEAT (Heat Index) maps provide

Natural Hazards, Disasters, Prevention
and Mitigation, Preparedness, and
Adaptation
• Develop family preparedness plans and
community-based disaster risk reduction
and management plans to prepare for,
respond to, and recover from geological
and hydrometeorological hazards that
affect the Philippines.
W10_Day 1
• Identify common geological and hydrometeorological hazards in
the Philippines.
W10_Day 2
• Explain a family preparedness plan that includes emergency
supplies, communication strategies, evacuation procedures, and
safety practices.
W10_Day 3
• Describe the components of a community-based DRRM plan and
explain how communities prepare for, respond to, and recover
from hazards.
W10_Day 4
• Develop a simple integrated plan showing how family
preparedness actions align with community DRRM systems for
effective disaster response and recovery.
Suggested Learning
Activities
● Modeling Greenhouse Gas Effects on Earth’s Temperature – Learners will investigate
how greenhouse gases regulate Earth’s temperature and understand the conditions that
make Earth suitable for life.
Exploring the Unique Geography and Biodiversity of the Philippines – Learners will
investigate and analyze the unique physical features, climate patterns, and biodiversity of
the Philippines and explain how these contribute to the country’s ecological and cultural
significance.
● Exploring the Uses of Earth Materials in Daily Life and Industry – Learners will
investigate different earth materials, identify their properties, and analyze how these
properties make them suitable for specific human and industrial uses.
Budget of Work Grade 11 | General Science
● Modeling the Effects of Geologic and Hydrometeorological Processes on Philippine
Landscapes – Learners will investigate how geologic (e.g., earthquakes, volcanic eruptions,
tectonic movements) and hydrometeorological processes (e.g., typhoons, rainfall, flooding)
continuously shape the Philippine landscape.
● Analyzing Human Impacts and Resilience Strategies in Local Landscapes – Learners
will examine how human activities modify landforms and water bodies, identify risks from
natural hazards, and propose prevention, mitigation, and adaptive strategies to strengthen
community resilience
Suggested Performance
Tasks
● Create a brochure to promote the importance of the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical
and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) and the Philippine Institute of
Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) to the local community in understanding and
mitigating geological and hydrometeorological hazards.
