SEMI-DETAILED LESSON IN PLAN IN SCIENCE 6
I. OBJECTIVES At the end of the lesson, the learners must be able to:
1. describe the different types of plate boundaries;
2. express awareness in the importance of
understanding the plate boundaries; and
3. identify real-world examples of each type of plate
boundaries.
II. CONTENT Plate Boundaries
Learning across the curriculum: - Mathematics: Calculate the speed of plate movement
using distance and time measurements.
- Geography: Analyze the impact of plate boundaries on
the formation of landforms.
- History: Explore the historical significance of plate
tectonics in understanding the Earth's history.
- Values: Moving forward is a sign of maturity.

IV. PROCEDURES
A. A. Reviewing previous lesson or Review of the past lesson.
B. presenting new lessons Have the learners to answer the following questions:
C. (REVIEW) • What is continental drift theory?
• What is the name of the super continent?
• Give the name of major plates in the world.
D. B. Establishing a purpose of the Have the learners to work in groups.
E. lesson (MOTIVATION) "4 Pics 1 Word: Unlocking the Word behind the Pictures"
Present set each group a puzzle. Let the learners to decode
the common word or concept that ties these images
together. 1 word per each group.
“LEAVE MARKS, MOVE FORWARD.”
Emphasize that this word or concept relates to the topic.
Lead the learners in relating the words to the lesson.
F. C. Presenting examples/instances Recall on the layers of the Earth.
G. of the new lesson Then, introduce the lesson to the learners.
H. (PRE – ACTIVITY) Have the learners to answer the following questions:
• What is the connection of the activity to the lesson?
• What do you think is the lesson for today?
I. D. Discussing new concepts and Explain the lesson to the learners.
J. practicing new skills 1
K. (ACTIVITY PROPER) Experiment discussion.
Using the cookie in the simple experiment, the teacher
leads the discussion in explaining the 3 types of plate
boundaries.
Divergent boundary indicates places where two tectonic
plates move away from each other. Most active divergent
boundaries are found between oceanic plates, where they
exist as mid-oceanic ridges. The divergent boundaries within
the continents produce rifts, eventually giving rise to rift
valleys.
Convergent boundary is an area where two plates move
towards one another. In this area, one of the plates slides
beneath the other plate in a process known as subduction.
Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain-building
activities are common along convergent boundaries.
Transform boundaries are formed when two tectonic plates
slide past each other. As these faults involve neither any
addition nor loss of lithosphere at the Earth's surface. The
transform faults are mostly found in the oceanic crust,
although a few such faults can also be found on land. Some
of the best examples of Transform Boundaries include the
San Andreas Fault and the North Anatolian Fault.
L. E. Discussing new concepts and Discuss real-world examples of each plate boundary (e.g.,
M. practicing new skills 2 earthquakes along the San Andreas Fault, volcanic activity
N. (DEEPENING) in the Pacific Ring of Fire, and seafloor spreading in the
Mid-Atlantic Ridge)
F. Developing Mastery Have the learners to identify the different plate boundaries
O. (POST – ACTIVITY) based on the map given:
P. G. Finding practical Have the learners to answer the following questions:
applications of concepts and 1. What is the importance of knowing the different types
skills in daily living (APPLICATION) of plate boundaries?
2. How can understanding plate boundaries help
communities prepare for natural disasters such as
earthquakes and volcanic eruptions?
Q. H. Making generalizations and Generalize the lesson by asking questions and by dancing.
R. abstractions about the A. Have the learners to answer the following questions:
lesson 1. What are the different types of plate boundaries?
S. (GENERALIZATION) 2. Explain the characteristics of each type.
B. The teacher will lead the class by dancing or showing
the movement of each plate boundaries.

another.

called supercontinent also known as what?
a. Continental drift c. Pangaea
b. Large mass d. Plates
3. The Plate Boundaries where lithospheric plates are
moving towards one another
a. Continent c. Divergent
b. Convergent d. Transform Fault
4. Convection current takes place, in what part of the layer
of the Earth?
a. Core c. Lower Mantle
b. Crust d. Upper Mantle
5. The Plate Boundaries where lithospheric plates are moving
away from one another
a. Continent c. Divergent
b. Convergent d. Transform Fault
V. Additional activities for Illustrate the plate boundaries on 1 long bond paper. Under
application / ASSIGNMENT each illustration, describe each type and write down the
(Extend) geologic features that will be formed for each plate
boundaries.
