How does soil erosion affect us?

Developing mastery (Leads to formative assessment
Tell what you have learned on soil erosion.
Making generalizations and abstractions about the lesson
Soil does not stay in one place for a
very long period. It is moved from one
place to another by natural forces like
running water and wind. The process
by which wind and water transport soil
particles and sediment from one place
to another is called soil erosion.

Natural Forces that Cause Soil Erosion
Water
Wind
Glaciers
Other Causes of Soil Erosion
Overgrazing of animals
Deforestation
Bad farming or agricultural practices
Activities of people and moving
vehicles

Developing mastery
Tell whether the statement describes the
weather or climate.
____1. It is the temporary condition of the
atmosphere in a given place at a particular
time.

___2. It is what the forecaster on the
TV news predict each day.
___3. Is the combination of
temperature, moisture, wind and
sunshine at a place over a period of
years.
___4. It is how the atmosphere
“behaves” over a period of time.
___5. It varies from day to day

Why do we have to know the weather for the
day?
Life is like weather. Sometimes it
is bright and shiny, and sometimes it
is dark and gloomy. There are always
storms and misunderstandings from
time to time. To weather the storms
mean overcome some difficulties or
problems in our lives.

What are the differences between weather and climate?
Weather > the day to day or time to time
condition of the atmosphere in certain
area.
> It affects our daily activities.
> The weather is fine when the sky is
bright, sunny, with few clouds, and no
rain; it is fair when there are clouds and
rain may occur in isolated patches,

> Through the use of modern
weather equipments, meteorologists are
able to predict weather conditions at any
given time. Knowing weather changes
help us plan worthwhile activities. We
can also prepare better during harsh
weather conditions. In this way we can
save lives and prevent damage to
properties.

> Climate is the total weather
conditions in a region over a longer
period of time. The weather at a certain
place such a Manila may be cold and
have a warm, dry, sunny climate. Climate
is the combination of temperature,
moisture, wind and sunshine at place
over a period of years. The study of
climate is called climatology and scientist
is known as a climatologist.

Evaluating learning
Write W if the statement describes the
weather and C if it describes the climate.
___1. It happens at a very short
period of time-even only for a day.
___2. It occurs for a long period of
time.
___3. It is the average weather in a
place over many years.

___4. It varies from day to day and from
one place to another.
___5. Is the combination of temperature,
moisture, wind and sunshine at a place
over a period of years.
Observe the weather conditions for one week.
Record your observation in a table.

Week 3 Day 5
Describing the Different Weather Disturbances

Review
Can you differentiate weather from climate?

Recall what happened when you saw a flash
of lightning from a distance.
You heard thunder, wind blew ,
and it rained hard. That was an
experienced of just one weather
disturbance. What do you call it?

Group Activity: “Types of Weather Disturbance”
Approach: Collaborative
Strategy: Peer Teaching
Activity: AFA
(The teacher pre- assigned the group and the topic to be discussed by each group.
Teacher should check first the output of the group)
I. Problem: What are the types of weather disturbances?
II. Materials: chart or Powerpoint presentation or video
presentation can be used by the reporter of each group
III Procedure:
a. Listen to each group report.
b. Understand and jot down important facts about the different
weather disturbances.
Group I- Storm
Group II- Thunderstorms
Group III- Hurricane and Tornadoes
Group IV- Tropical Cyclone

Group 1
A storm is any disturbed state of
an environment or astronomical body's
atmosphere especially affecting its
surface, and strongly implying severe
weather. It may be marked by significant
disruptions to normal conditions such as
strong wind, tornados, hail, thunder and
lightning (a thunderstorm), heavy
precipitation (snowstorm, rainstorm),
heavy freezing rain (ice storm), strong
winds (tropical cyclone, windstorm), or
wind transporting some substance
through the atmosphere as in a dust
storm, blizzard, sandstorm, etc.
The English word comes
from Proto-Germanic *sturmaz meaning
"noise, tumult".[2]

Group 1 -thunderstorm
Thunderstorms are small,
intense weather systems that make
strong winds, heavy rain, lightning,
and thunder. Thunderstorms can
happen anywhere with two
conditions: the air near the Earth's
surface must be warm and moist
(with lots of liquid), and the
atmosphere must be unstable.[1]
100 lightning bolts hit the earth
every second, and at any one
moment, about 1,800
thunderstorms happen around the
earth.[2]
Thunderstorms are rare in
cold weather. When they happen, it

Group 1 - tropical cyclone
A tropical cyclone is a circular air
movement over the warm ocean waters in the warm
part of Earth near the equator. Most tropical
cyclones create strong winds and heavy rains. While
some tropical cyclones stay out in the sea, others
pass over land. They can be dangerous because of
flooding and because the winds pick up objects,
including things as big as small boats. They can throw
these things at high speeds.
Tropical cyclones, hurricanes or typhoons
form when convection causes warm, moist ocean air
to rise. They begin as a group of storm winds when
the water gets as hot as 80 °F (27 °C) or hotter. The
Coriolis effect made by the Earth's rotation causes
the winds to rotate. Warm air rises quickly and then
it gets pushed aside as it cools. These storms usually
move westward in the tropics, and later move north
or south into the temperate zone. The "eye of the
storm" is the center. It has little rain or wind. The eye
wall has much rain and the strongest winds. It is
surrounded by rain bands and an area of strong
winds.

Group 1 - tornadoes
A tornado is a rapidly rotating column of
air that is in contact with both the surface of the
Earth and a cumulonimbus cloud or, in rare cases,
the base of a cumulus cloud. They are often referred
to as twisters, whirlwinds or cyclones,[1] although
the word cyclone is used in meteorology to name a
weather system with a low-pressure area in the
center around which winds blow counterclockwise in
the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the
Southern.[2] Tornadoes come in many shapes and
sizes, and they are often visible in the form of a
condensation funnel originating from the base of a
cumulonimbus cloud, with a cloud of rotating debris
and dust beneath it. Most tornadoes have wind
speeds less than 110 miles per hour (180 km/h), are
about 250 feet (80 m) across, and travel a few miles
(several kilometers) before dissipating. The most
extreme tornadoes can attain wind speeds of more
than 300 miles per hour (480 km/h), are more than
two miles (3 km) in diameter, and stay on the ground
for dozens of miles (more than 100 km).

What type of weather disturbance have
you experienced?
How did it affect you and your family?
What are their differences?
Storm- is a violent disturbance in
atmosphere marked by sudden
changes in air pressure and rapid air
movements.

Thunderstorm – is a localized storm
cloud that produces thunder and
lightning.
It is one of the most common
types of weather disturbances that is
experienced in the country.

Hurricane - is a tropical storm with
sustained winds of at least 120km/hr.
> considered the most violent
storms on Earth, have several names
depending on the location
where they are formed.
1. When winds in a tropical cyclone
occurs in the Atlantic or central Pacific
Ocean, it is called a hurricane.

2. In western Pacific Ocean in some
parts of asia like Phillipines, weather
disturbances that occur are referred
to as typhoons.
3.In the Indian Ocean, they are
called cyclones.
Hurricanes rotate in a counterclockwise
direction around an “eye.” The center of
the storm or “eye” is the
calmest part. It has only light winds and
fair weather.

Tropical cyclones are areas of low pressure
that contains rising warm air.
Classification of tropical cyclone
according to maximum speed:
1. Tropical depression- has maximum
sustained wind speed of less than 63 kph.
When it gains speed, it becomes a storm
and eventually a typhoon.

2. Tropical storm- has
maximum sustained wind speed
which ranges from 63 to 118 kph.
3. Typhoon- has a wind speed
greater than 118 kph
