Matching Type/ Picture Analysis (3 mins.)

The matching type
The teacher introduces the Matching Type game where game facilitates

engaging with each
other and with the
|Page teacher in the learning
process.
 Matching type:
students are asked to
categorize terms
according to which
layer of the Earth they
belong to. This requires
them to understand the
characteristics of each
layer and to be able to
identify which terms
match those
characteristics.

What does these odd shapes represent?

Continents.

How many continents do we have?

Seven.

What does the given terms represent?

The layers of the earth’s interior based on their
mechanical and chemical composition.

The students try to answer the questions: (3 mins.)

Students work by group (20 mins.)

Distributed reading material, “Studying the Earth’s

Interior”

The students complete the given organizer by writing the

necessary information to complete the concept about
seismic waves.

1. What are seismic waves?

Mechanical vibrations that occur inside the earth
which is caused by the breakage of rocks.
2. Differentiate surface waves from body waves.
Surface waves travel only on the Earth’s surface like
ripples of water while body waves travel through the
Earth’s body (interior). In addition, surface waves

 arrive late at seismic recording stations compared to
the body waves.
3. Which type of waves do you think were useful to
seismologists in their study of the Earth’s interior?
The body waves were used by seismologists
because they can pass through the Earth’s interior.

Group Presentation (10 mins.)

Representatives of each group post their outputs on the

board and present them in the class while the teacher
facilitates the discussion and clarifies some
misconceptions.

largely ignorant of what lies beneath our feet.

Read the following questions carefully and choose the

letter of your answer.

1. Which of the following seismic wave is named after

John William Strutt, that rolls along the ground just
like a wave moves across a lake or an ocean?
Evaluate
a. Love wave c. Rayleigh wave
b. P wave d. S wave

2. Body wave has two subtypes. Which of the following

describes P waves?
a. Slower than S waves.

|Page
 b. It travels only through the lithosphere.
c. The particles vibrate parallel to the direction
where the wave is travelling.
d. The particles vibrate perpendicular to the
direction where the wave is travelling.

3. S wave is another type of body waves that can travel

through the interior of the earth. How do S wave
propagate?
a. It rolls along the ground just like a wave moves
across a lake or an ocean.
b. It forces the ground to move backward and
forward as they are compressed and expanded.
c. It’s faster than P waves and it moves the ground
in a side-to-side horizontal motion, like that of a
snake’s causing the ground to twist.
d. It moves as shear or transverse waves, and
force the ground to sway from side to side,
perpendicular to the direction of the waves

4. Why are there no P waves or S waves received in the

P wave shadow zone?
a. P waves are absorbed and S waves are
refracted by earth’s outer core.
b. P waves are refracted and S waves are
absorbed by earth’s outer core.
c. Both P waves and S waves are refracted by the
earth’s outer core.
d. Both P waves and S waves are absorbed by the
earth’s outer core.

5. Which of the following medium can S waves travel?

a. Solids only c. Gases only
b. Liquids only d. Solids, gases, and
liquids

One Minute Paper (1min)

The teacher let students write his/her answer for one
minute.

Take a minute to think about what you have learned

about seismic waves today.

Extend Write down two things you learned that you found
most interesting or surprising.

Write down one question you still have about seismic

waves.

Think-Pair-Share (2min.)
Pair up and share your answer to each other.
