OBJECTIVES This Strategic Learning Material will focused on “Plate Boundary Convergence—types, geologic features and events”. At the end of this intervention, learners are expected to accomplish the following objectives; 1. 2. 3. 4. Identify the characteristics of a Convergent plate boundary movement. Recognize the different types of plate convergence Predict the possible geologic formations found on plate convergence. Give the possible geological phenomena occur on plate convergence. GUIDE CARD 1

LEAST LEARNED CONCEPT • Explain the different processes that occur along the “convergent” plate boundaries. (S 9 ES-Ia-j-36. 3) GUIDE CARD 2

OVERVIEW Plate boundaries are the line between two different plates—and they are in constant movement! There are three types of Plate Tectonic Boundaries which are classified according to plate movements—the Divergent, the Transform fault and the CONVERGENT PLATE BOUNDARIES. Plate movements contribute to the formation of geologic features and occurrence of different geological phenomena. Types of crust (oceanic or continental) is a factor to be consider in predicting geologic formations on convergence boundaries. GUIDE CARD 3

QUAKE-IT-OFF! Convergence of plate boundaries cause movement of crust that can bring harsh and destructive earthquakes. Being part of a converging plate, the Philippines is prone to many earthquake attacks. The government invested lots of effort to instill preparedness on earthquake emergencies among Filipino students. What are things we need to do BEFORE, DURING and AFTER EARTHQUAKES? Before Earthquake During Earthquake • • • ENRICHMENT CARD 1 After Earthquake
