“HEY, LOOK!’
Class, are you familiar with these signages?

Have you ever encountered these signages when you are going on a trip? Have you
seen these things without further notice? Do you understand these icons? What are
these things for? What notion can you formulate with the images presented?
The Philippines experienced dozens of natural disasters every year. Some are just passing by but
few made drastic trauma in the country. In response to the past and present, disasters have
brought massive destruction all over the news (north, east, west, and south).
Directions: The class will be grouped into five and each group will supply the blank
boxes with the causes and effects of the given geologic hazards. Moreover, what
places specifically provinces do you think have been affected by geologic hazards for
the past decade? Use the Philippine map and choose a leader to present your answers
in class.

Guide Questions:
1. Do the neighboring provinces or clusters of places for identifying geologic
hazards in terms of earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and landslides relevant?
2. As a student, why is it necessary to identify or to be informed about the
different geologic hazards?

1. ANALYSIS

The teacher will then ask the following questions to the students.

• What is a geologic hazard?


• What are the differences between earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and landslides
according to their features or way of destruction as geologic hazards?
• Among the top 3 places in the Philippines that you have selected and hazard-
prone to volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and landslides. Justify your answers and
why they are most prone.
• What is the importance of using a hazard map?
• Why there is a need for us to determine the various geologic hazards?

2. ABSTRACTION
The teacher discusses Natural Hazards, Mitigation, and Adaptation – Geologic
Processes and Hazards

Geologic Process
Geological processes can be described as natural forces that shape the physical
makeup of a planet. As these processes occur from time to time, it poses a continuous
source of hazards to people, community, and society.
Hazards
A hazard is a phenomenon caused by natural or human forces which poses a
threat to humans, animals, properties, and the environment. For instance, since the
Philippines is located within the Ring of Fire, the country experiences many
earthquakes and volcanic eruptions compared to other countries.
Hazards can be classified as either natural or anthropogenic.
Natural: Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, and tsunamis (climate and
weather-related hazards)
Anthropogenic: Deforestation, mining, and climate change (man-made)
Hazard Map
It is a map that illustrates the areas that are exposed or prone to a particular
hazard. They are used for natural hazards such as landslides, flooding, volcanic
eruption, and tsunami.
Geologic location is the major reason why the Philippines is a hazard- prone
country. The Philippine government partnered with other private institutions to reduce
the risk of hazards by producing hazard maps that are publicly available.

3. APPLICATION

The teacher gives 15-minute working activity and presentation in front of the
class.

“I AM READY!”
Directions: With the provided research data on geologic hazards (earthquakes,
volcanic eruptions, and landslides) on the hazard map. As concerned citizens in the
country, design an emergency response plan for preventing casualties and fatalities in
various hazards. The class will be divided into five groups that focus on earthquakes,
volcanic eruptions, and landslides. In making, you can incorporate drawings and
colors. Materials are also provided. Examples of emergency plans are as follows
below and please be guided by the rubrics for grading.
