Lesson Guide in Earth Science

I. OBJECTIVES

A. Content Standards The learners demonstrate an understanding of the formation of the

universe and the solar system.

B. Performance The learners shall be able to make a concept map and use it to explain
Standards how the geospheres, hydrosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere are
interconnected.

At the end of the session, students are expected to:

C. Learning 1. compare different hypotheses explaining the origin of the Solar

Competencies/ System (S11ES-Ia-2).
Objectives 1.1 identify different hypotheses explaining the origin of the Solar
System
1.2 create their own hypothesis about the origin of the Solar System
1.3 appreciate the beauty of creation
