I. OBJECTIVES
A. Content Standard: The learners demonstrate understanding of the relation of
the geographical location of the Philippines to its environment
B. Performance Standard: The learners should be able to analyze the advantage
of the location of the Philippines in relation to the climate, weather, and seasons.
C. Most Essential Learning Competency: Using models, relate:
1. the tilt of the Earth to the length of daytime (S7ES-IVh-5)
Specific Objectives:
1. compare the length of daytime and nighttime in a particular month of the
year
2. describe and explain the phenomena associated with each season.
3. relate the tilt of the Earth to the length of daytime and nighttime and
seasons.

ELICIT
FACT or BLUFF.
Determine whether the following statements are true or false. Do the sign 💁 if it is true
otherwise do the sign💁‍♀.
1. Rotation is the movement of Earth within its axis. =FACT
2. Earth takes 24 hours to have 1 complete revolution within its axis. = BLUFF
3. Earth’s axis is tilted 23.5˚. =FACT
4. Earth’s orbit (path) around the sun is a perfect circle. =BLUFF
5. It takes 365.25 days for Earth to have 1 complete revolution. =FACT
ENGAGE
FLYSWATTER GAME (UNLOCKING OF DIFFICULTIES)

-The class will be divided into 2 groups.

-The teacher will post the vocabulary words on the board.
-Definitions of the words will be flashed on the screen.
-Students (2 groups) should race to see who can locate the correct word on the board the
fastest.
-The group that will have the highest point at the end of the game will be the winner.

1. It is the movement of the Earth around the sun. =REVOLUTION

2. A period of the year that is distinguished by special climate conditions. =SEASON
3. It is one of the two times of the year when the positioning and tilt of Earth relative to the
sun results in the most amount of daylight time or the least amount of daylight time in a
single day. = SOLSTICE
4. It is either of the two moments in the year when the Sun is exactly above the Equator and
day and night are of equal length = EQUINOX

EXPLORE
GROUPS 1-3
The table shows the time of sunrise and sunset on a selected day of each month of the
year 2011. Analyze the table carefully then answer the questions below.

GROUPS 4-5
The figures show a comparison between the number of directed rays received by Earth
during June and December. Compare these figures then analyze and answer the following
questions.

EXPLAIN
GROUPS 1-3
Q1. Compare the time of all sunrise from January, 2011 to December, 2011. What
do you observe?
Q2. Compare the times of all sunsets during the same period. What do you
observe?
Q3. Compare the time of sunrise on June 22, 2011 with that on December 22,
2011. On which day did the Sun rise earlier?
Q4. Compare the time of sunset on June 22, 2011 with that on December 22, 2011.
On which day did the Sun set later?
Q5. When was the length of daytime the longest?
Q6. When was the length of daytime the shortest?
Q7. How is the Earth’s axis tilting affects the length of daytime and night time?
GROUPS 4-5
1. Which hemisphere is tilted toward the sun in June?
2. Which hemisphere is tilted away from the sun ?
3. In which month is the Northern tilted away from the Sun? What season should
the countries in this hemisphere experience? Why? How about the opposite
hemisphere? What season do they experience during this time?
4. In which month is the North pole tilted towards the Sun? What season should
the countries in this hemisphere experience? Why? How about the opposite
hemisphere? What season do they experience during this time?
5. What are the 4 seasons experience in mid-latitudes? Describe the phenomena
associated in each season.
6. How is the Earth’s axis tilting affects the seasons on our planet?
ELABORATE
How can you apply your understanding on the topic with regards to:
1. Agriculture
2. Clothing and fashion
3. Outdoor Activities and Sports

• Agriculture: Understanding Earth's seasons is crucial for farmers and agricultural

practices. Farmers need to know when to plant specific crops based on the seasonal
changes and climate conditions. They rely on the knowledge of the growing seasons to
determine the optimal time for planting, harvesting, and managing their crops effectively.

• Clothing and Fashion: Understanding Earth's seasons helps individuals make
appropriate clothing choices. Different seasons call for different types of clothing to stay
comfortable and adapt to the changing weather. People switch from warm and cozy clothing
in winter to lighter and breathable fabrics in summer. The fashion industry also follows
seasonal trends, creating clothing lines that align with the current season.
• Outdoor Activities and Sports: Earth's seasons influence various outdoor activities
and sports. Activities such as swimming, hiking, and camping are more popular during the
summer season when the weather is warmer and days are longer. Winter sports like skiing,
ice skating, and snowboarding rely on the presence of snow and colder temperatures.
EVALUATE
Read and understand the questions carefully. Choose the letter of the correct answer.
1. What is the primary cause of Earth's seasons?
a) Earth's orbit around the Sun
b) Earth's rotation on its axis
c) Earth's elliptical orbit
d) Earth's tilt on its axis
2. When it is autumn in the Northern Hemisphere, what season is it in the Southern Hemisphere?
a) Summer
b) Fall (Autumn)
c) Spring
d) Winter
3. Which of the following is true about the equinox?
a) It occurs when one hemisphere is tilted toward the Sun.
b) It marks the beginning of summer in both hemispheres.
c) It results in equal day and night lengths around the world.
d) It occurs when Earth is closest to the Sun in its orbit.
4. During which season is the Northern Hemisphere tilted away from the Sun?
a) Spring
b) Summer
c) Fall (Autumn)
d) Winter
5. Which of the following statements is true about the Southern Hemisphere when the Northern
Hemisphere experiences summer?
A) The Southern Hemisphere experiences summer as well.
B) The Southern Hemisphere experiences spring.
C) The Southern Hemisphere experiences autumn.
D) The Southern Hemisphere experiences winter.
D. Carbon dioxide, calcium carbonate, limestone, sulfuric acid
EXTEND
Illustrate and explain how the tilt of the Earth’s axis leads to varying length of day and night.
