Class, kindly get ¼ sheet of paper and copy
the 3 guide questions shown in the board.
Are you done copying? Yes, ma’am.
(The students will pass the papers forward
Okay Great! But before anything else I properly.)
want everybody to create 1 to 2 questions
that you wanted to know about Eclipse.
Kindly write it at the back of your ¼ sheet
of paper. Do you have any question?
Are you done?
Kindly pass the papers forward and don’t
forget to write your name.
B. Activity Proper For our today’s activity, I will divide the (Students are listening)
class into two groups. The group 1 and
group 2. Each group should have 1 group

Okay, I will prepare more activity in our
next lesson. But for now, let’s discuss our
lesson for Today which is all about Eclipse.

lesson/topic. (The student are raising their hands.)
Thank you Judy. How about the two types
of Eclipse?
Faye: Eclipse has 2 types: Lunar and Solar
The Lunar Eclipse and the Solar Eclipse.
Eclipse
Discussion Faye can you give me the two types of
Solar eclipse - The Sun casts a shadow on the
Eclipse and its meaning?
Earth
Lunar eclipse- The Earth casts a shadow on
the Moon
Thank you Faye. Let’s talked about the
types of Lunar Eclipse. Patricia can you Patricia: Two types of Lunar eclipses:
give the Types of Lunar eclipse? 1. Total Lunar eclipses- Occurs when the
moon and the sun are on exact
opposite sides of Earth. Although the
moon is in Earth's shadow, some
sunlight reaches the moon. The
sunlight passes through Earth's
atmosphere, which causes Earth’s
atmosphere to filter out most of the
blue light. This makes the moon
appear red to people on Earth.
2. Partial Lunar eclipses- Happens when
only a part of the moon enters Earth's
shadow. In a partial eclipse, Earth's
shadow appears very dark on the side of
the moon facing Earth. What people see
from Earth during a partial lunar eclipse
depends on how the sun, Earth and
moon are lined up.
Thank you Patricia. How about the Solar SOLAR ECLIPSE- A solar eclipse occurs when a
eclipse, can you read it Kenneth? portion of the Earth is engulfed (cover
completely) in a shadow cast by the Moon which
fully or partially blocks sunlight. This occurs when
the Sun, Moon and Earth are aligned. Such
alignment coincides with a new moon indicating

knows the types of Solar eclipse? (Students are raising their hands)
Yes, Ed? Can you give me the Types of
Solar Eclipse? Three types of SOLAR Eclipses:
1. A Total Solar Eclipse - Only visible from a
small area on Earth. The people who see the
total eclipse are in the center of the moon’s
shadow when it hits Earth. The sky becomes
very dark, as if it were night. For a total
eclipse to take place, the sun, moon and
Earth must be in a direct line.
2. Partial Solar Eclipse -Happens when the
sun, moon and Earth are not exactly lined
up. The sun appears to have a dark shadow
Sharing of on only a small part of its surface.

blue moon experience that I encounter way
back then.
Yes, Ma’am.
(SHORT VIDEO) (The students will watch and listen to the
video)
But are we aware that Eclipse is dangerous
not only to us but also for the animals?
Here’s the reason, Rose kindly read the The Eclipse is Dangerous:
effect of eclipse. Sun simply outputs more power than our eye
is designed to handle, and exposing our eye
to that kind of power can damage the retina.
And in a nutshell, solar eclipses are
dangerous because the sun can come out
from behind the moon and "surprise you"
before you have a chance to look away.
EFFECTS to Animals:
• Pets may still become fearful during
the eclipse.
Thank you Rose. • Pets may be apprehensive about the
crowds that gather to view it.
• Pets can suffer "eclipse blindness." -
A view of that light can literally burn
any eyes, human or cat or dog, that
look up at it.
D. Generalization Okay! For Our Final Evaluation for today, (The students are actively willing to answer

Thank you Ma’am.
Goodbye ma’am!
