(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.

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?

​

17 of 20

Making generalizations and abstractions about the lesson

What is rotation?

It is the spinning or movement of the Earth on its axis from west to east and completed in 24 hours or 1 day.

​

What causes day and night?

The rotation of the Earth causes day and night.

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.
