(refer to power point presentation)

(Integration of Literacy and Numeracy Skills, Health, and HOTS)

To further pupils understanding of the concept and skills, lead them to demonstrate how
earth’s rotation affects day and night through the use of improvised set up.
(Prepare the globe and the flashlight ahead of time.)

Say:
1. We have here a globe and a flashlight.
(unlock the word globe)
2. We need three volunteers to illustrate to us the following:

1. Show us the correct direction on

how the earth rotates on its axis.
2. Explain what causes day and night.
3. What makes day ?
4. What makes night?
Ask further:
1. How many hours are there in one complete rotation or one day?
2. How many hours do you spend in school?

Group Presentation/Reporting
(Learners are given utmost recognition in the task they are presented.)

Self-Assessment of the Group Activity

(Each group presents their group output rating by presenting their Self-Assessment Card.)

(refer to power point presentation)

(Integration of HOTS, Predicting Outcomes & Identifying Cause & Effect relationship)

Ask:
1. What might happen if the earth does not rotate?
2. What effects might it bring to the earth itself, to the people and other living organism
on it, to the temperature, etc.

Ask:
1. What is rotation?
2. What causes day and night?
3. Did you cooperate with your group in the activity?
4. Why is cooperation important in a group activity?
Evaluation: Identifying true and false statements (1-5)
(refer to power point presentation)

Direction:
In a ¼ sheet of paper, 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.
