SCIENCE
Quarter FOURTH Date
I. LESSON TITLE LOCATION OF THE PHILIPPINES WITH RESPECT TO THE CONTINENTS AND
OCEANS OF THE WORLD.
II. MOST ESSENTIAL LEARNING Demonstrate how places on Earth may be located using a coordinate system.
COMPETENCIES (MELCs) (S7ES-IVa-1)
III. CONTENT/CORE CONTENT Unit 4 Module 1: Earth and Space
IV. LEARNING PHASES AND LEARNING ACTIVITIES
I. Introduction (Time Frame: ___Day 1_____)
To locate exact places on the earth, one must look at the intersecting lines latitude and longitude. The combination of these
lines form a grid. The point where lines of latitude and longitude meet or intersect is called coordinate. But, what is the
difference between these two terms? Lines of latitude measure north-south of the equator. They are all parallel to each other,
thus, they are referred to as parallels. Longitude is the measurement east or west of the prime meridian and are called
meridians.
Equator is an imaginary line drawn around the earth equally distant from both poles, dividing the earth into northern and
southern hemisphere and marked as 0° latitude. Prime meridian is the earth's zero of longitude, which by convention passes
through Greenwich, England.

D. Development (Time Frame: __Day 2______)
Another way to locate places is to identify the landmasses and bodies of water surrounded in a certain country. Philippines is
said to be an archipelago country. Why do you think so?

Direction: Locate the position of the Philippines on the map and answer the questions below. Write your answer on the space
provided below the question.
1. What are the landmasses surrounding the Philippines?
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

2. What are the bodies of water surrounding the Philippine Archipelago?

3. Why is Philippines considered as an archipelago?

IV. LEARNING PHASES AND LEARNING ACTIVITIES
E. Engagement (Time Frame: ___Day 3______)

Maps are two-dimensional or three-dimensional representations of a particular area. Globe is a three-dimensional model that
is subdivided with imaginary lines called latitude (horizontal) and longitude (vertical). The combination of these lines forms a
grid. The point where lines of latitude and longitude meet or intersect is called coordinate. The coordinates of Manila,
Philippines is 14⁰ N, 120⁰ E.

Learning Task 1

Direction: Using a map, give the coordinates of the capital of the neighboring countries of the Philippines e.g. Tokyo, Japan.

1. Hanoi, Vietnam: ________________________

2. Jakarta, Indonesia: ______________________

3. Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia: _________________

4. Bangkok, Thailand: ______________________

5. Beijing, China: __________________________
