Q9. Use your model to show different types of movement
along a fault. How would the surroundings be affected?
 Group Demonstration
1. Each group will have a representative that will
demonstrate the different fault movements (e.g.
horizontal and vertical movement.)
Show them how Richters, Mercalli and the Philvocs scales
measures intensity and magnitude
Enumerate ways in which we can determine
if a fault is active or not.
 By checking the country’s
historical records. Historians
always write about destructive
events such as earthquakes.
 By studying the vibrations, past
and present, which come from
faults. Still another way is by
observing the surroundings. For
example, a fault may cross a road
and because of that, the road is
displaced.

If internet connectivity is available have

students use the PHILVOLCS App called
Fault Finder to Locate the nearest Active
Fault in their Area.

ELABORATE
 Briefly discuss the following: and have students watch a
short video on how the epicenter can be located using
triangulation method
Earthquake-A sudden ground motion or
vibration produced by a rapid release of
stored-up energy.
Epicenter-The point on the Earth's surface
located directly above the focus of an
earthquake.
H. Making generalizations Focus-The location where the earthquake

ELABORATE directions.
Intensity: The severity of earthquake shaking is assessed
using a descriptive scale – the Modified Mercalli Intensity
Scale.
Magnitude: Earthquake size is a quantitative measure of
the size of the earthquake at its source. The Richter
Magnitude Scalemeasures the amount of seismic energy
released by an earthquake.
The Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology
(PHIVOLCS) uses PEIS to describe the intensity of
earthquakes in the Philippines.
Active faults are structure along which we
expect displacement to occur. By definition,
since a shallow earthquake is a process that
produces displacement across a fault, all
shallow earthquakes occur on active
faults. Inactive faults are structures that we
can identify, but which do no have earthquakes.
