III. Procedure
Preparation Good morning, class! (Good morning, teacher.) How are you
today? (We’re good, teacher.) That’s great to hear that all of you
are doing well. Before you sit down, kindly pick up the pieces of
paper under your chair and arrange it properly. Once you're done,
you may sit down. Before we start our lesson, what do we need to
remember during class? (Listen carefully, raise your hand to speak,
participate actively, and be respectful to everyone.) Very good!

Before we proceed with our discussion, I will first group the class
into three groups. This side will be Group One, the middle will be
Group Two, and the other side will be Group Three. (The class
arranges themselves into their respective groups.)

Now, class, what can you observe in the picture? (There are two

seasons, teacher—rainy and sunny!) Very good! This is our 'Sun and
Rain Collection' Chart. This will serve as your point-tracking system
for today. Every time your group participates during our discussion,
you will earn a Sun Token to place under the sunny season.
However, if your group misbehaves or does not follow instructions, a
Raindrop Token will be added under the rainy season. Do you want
that to happen? (No, teacher.) Great! By the end of the lesson, the
group with the most Sun Tokens and the fewest Raindrop Tokens
will be declared the winner! But remember, a little rain is necessary,
but too much can cause floods. So, let’s make sure we collect more
suns than raindrops! Is that clear, class? (Yes, teacher.)
A. ENGAGE Now, class, let’s start with a short activity. We’re going to play a
game called "Cabbage Relay". Are you familiar with this game?
(Yes/No, teacher.)

Here’s what we’re going to do:

Instructions:

1. I have a "cabbage" ball here. Inside each layer, there is a

riddle about the weather.
2. I will play some music, and while the music is playing, you will
pass the cabbage ball around.
3. When the music stops, the student holding the cabbage ball
will peel off one layer, read the riddle aloud, and try to answer
it.
4. If the student answers correctly, their group will earn a point.
If they cannot answer, the question will be passed to the next
group.
5. The game will continue until all riddles have been answered.
The group with the most points wins!

Before we begin, what should we remember while doing the

activity? (Listen carefully to the instructions, pass the cabbage ball
properly, respect everyone’s turn, and have fun!) Very good! Now,
let’s start!

Riddles:

1. "The sun is shy, hiding away, the sky is gray, but there's no
rain today. What kind of day am I?" (Answer: Cloudy Day)
2. "I shine so bright up in the sky, making everything warm and
dry. What kind of day am I?" (Answer: Sunny Day)
3. "I make the trees dance and sway, blowing leaves throughout
the day. What kind of day am I?" (Answer: Windy Day)
4. "Loud and fierce, I roar with might, flashing lightning, a scary
sight! What kind of day am I?" (Answer: Stormy Day)
5. "Tiny drops fall from the sky, wear a coat and stay dry. What

kind of day am I?" (Answer: Rainy Day)

Very good, class! Now, who can tell us the words we guessed in
our activity? (Cloudy day, sunny day, windy day, stormy day, and
rainy day.) Excellent! Let’s read them together. (Students read the
words.) Now, let’s spell them together. (Students spell the words.)
These words have something to do with our lesson today. Are you
ready to find out more? (Yes, teacher.) (Integration of Reading and
Literacy)

B. EXPLORE This time, we’re going to watch a video. Before that, what are
the things that we need to remember while watching a video?
(Watch silently, observe carefully, and take down notes.) Now, let’s
watch the video.

Guide Questions:
1. How many seasons does the Philippines have? (The
Philippines has two seasons: the dry season and the wet
season.)
2. When does the dry season usually occur? (The dry season
occurs from December to May.)
3. What months are part of the wet season? (The wet season
occurs from June to November.)
4. What is the main cause of the two seasons in the Philippines?
(The two seasons are caused by the movement of the sun and
the monsoon winds affecting the country.)
5. How does the wet season affect daily activities in the
Philippines? (The wet season brings a lot of rain, which can
cause floods, disrupt travel, and affect farming and outdoor
activities.)
6. Why is the dry season important for tourism in the
Philippines? (The dry season has less rain, making it the best
time for tourists to visit beaches, islands, and outdoor
attractions.)
7. How do Filipinos prepare for the wet season? (Filipinos
prepare by securing their homes, avoiding flood-prone areas,
storing emergency supplies, and staying updated on weather
forecasts.)

Great job, everyone! Now that we’ve explored the seasons of the
Philippines, let’s discuss them further!

[Link] Why does the Philippines have only two seasons?

Unlike countries with four seasons (spring, summer, autumn, and
winter), the Philippines experiences only two seasons: wet and dry.
This is because our country is close to the equator, which means we
receive direct sunlight all year round. Our seasons are influenced
not by the tilt of the Earth but by the monsoon winds that bring
either dry or rainy weather.

1. The Wet Season (Tag-ulan) – June to November

The wet season is characterized by frequent rainfall, strong winds,

and typhoons. This is because of the Southwest Monsoon (Hanging

Habagat), which brings warm, moist air from the ocean, causing
heavy rains and storms.

Characteristics of the Wet Season:

 Frequent rains and thunderstorms
 Increased humidity (hot and sticky air)
 Higher chances of flooding in low-lying areas
 More typhoons entering the Philippines

Effects of the Wet Season:

 Farmers take advantage of the rain to plant rice and other
crops.
 Some areas may experience flooding and landslides.
 People stay indoors more often and use raincoats and
umbrellas when going outside.
 More mosquitoes appear due to stagnant water, increasing
the risk of dengue fever.

What to Do During the Wet Season?

 Always carry an umbrella or raincoat when going outside.
 Listen to weather forecasts, especially during typhoons.
 Store emergency kits with food, water, and a flashlight.
 Keep important documents in waterproof containers.
 Stay indoors during heavy rains to avoid accidents.

2. The Dry Season (Tag-init) – December to May

The dry season is characterized by hot temperatures, less rainfall,
and dry soil. It is influenced by the Northeast Monsoon (Hanging
Amihan), which brings cool, dry air from Siberia.

Characteristics of the Dry Season:

 Hot and sunny days (especially from March to May)
 Lower humidity (less moisture in the air
 Little to no rain, leading to dry soil
 Water levels in rivers and lakes decrease

Effects of the Dry Season:

 Some crops wilt and die due to lack of water.
 Water levels in dams and reservoirs decrease, affecting water
supply.
 People prefer to wear light and breathable clothes to stay
cool.
 Families and friends go on vacations to beaches and resorts.
 Foods like halo-halo, ice cream, and fruit shakes become
popular.

What to Do During the Dry Season?

 Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.
 Wear light-colored and loose clothing to keep cool.
 Apply sunscreen and wear a hat when going outside.
 Conserve water to prevent shortages.
 Be cautious of fire hazards, as dry weather increases the risk
of wildfires.

D. ELABORATE Now, class, it’s time for you to apply what you’ve learned! We will
have a group activity where each group will differentiate the
features of the two seasons in the Philippines.

Instructions:
1. Each group will receive a chart with specific features listed in
the first column.
2. Your task is to fill in the blanks by comparing the Wet Season
and Dry Season for the given features.
3. Work as a team to discuss and complete the chart within 3
minutes.
4. After the allotted time, each group will present their answers.

Are the instructions clear? (Yes, teacher.) Before we begin, what

should we remember while doing the activity? (Listen carefully to
the instructions, work as a team and respect everyone’s ideas, stay
on task, and be creative.)

Now, let’s go back to our ‘Sun and Rain Collection’ Chart. Let's
check which group has gathered the most Sun Tokens and the
fewest Raindrop Tokens based on their participation.
Congratulations to Group ___ for collecting the most Sun Tokens
today! Your active participation and enthusiasm have shone
brightly, just like the sunny season. Keep up the great work! For the
other groups, don’t worry! You all did an amazing job, and I
encourage you to participate even more in our next lesson.
Remember, a little rain helps us grow, but too much can slow us
down—so let’s aim for more sunshine next time! Learning is more
fun when we all contribute and share our ideas!
