Dates and 9:00 – 10:00 AM
Time
SESSION 1
The learners demonstrate understanding on how the planet Earth evolved in
the last 4.6 billion years
The learners are able to describe the possible geologic events that occured in
a certain area based on the rock layers found therein
Learners will be able to describe how index fossils (also known as guide
fossils) are used to define and identify subdivisions of the geologic time scale.
S11ES-II-j-41
1. Define how index fossils are being used as a guide in knowing the
subdivisions of the geologic time scale.
2. Demostrate using multi-media on how index fossils are used to define
and identify subdivisions of the geologic time scale.
3. Appreciate the use of index fossils in defining and identifying
subdivisions of the geologic time scale.

Look around you. Everything you see, from the variety of living organisms to
the environment they live in, is the product of changes that occur throughout
geologic time.
Do you want to know how we can get a glimpse of the events that happened
millions or even billions of years ago?
Showing image of geologic time scale. And students will be going to analyze
the image.

Discussion of the Lesson Proper
An eon, the largest division of the geologic time scale, spans hundreds to
thousands of millions of years. There are three major eons, the Archean,
Proterozoic, and Phanerozoic eons. The Phanerozoic eon is the one we are in
today.
An era is hundreds of millions of years long. The three major eras in the
Phanerozoic eon are the Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic eras. Mass
extinctions mark the boundaries between the eras. We are in the Cenozoic era,
which began 65 million years ago, after the extinction of the dinosaurs.
A period is tens of millions of years long. It is based on the forms of life existing
at that time. For instance, the tertiary and quaternary periods comprise the
Cenozoic Era. The tertiary period is the beginning of the age of mammals while
the quaternary period is considered the age of humans.
An epoch is several million years long. It is the division of the most recent
periods. For example, the quaternary period, which began with an ice age
about 1.8 million years ago, is divided into two epochs, the Pleistocene and
Holocene epochs. Each epoch has unique geography and climate, so plants
and animals that existed during those times are unique to each epoch, too.
Group Activity:
The students will be grouped into 5. Each group will be given materials and
worksheet. They will be given 10 minutes to finish the task.
Title of the Activity:
The Earth Geologic Time Scale!
What do you think?
Why is it important to study the events that happened and the organisms that
existed even before the dawn of man?
Key Points
 Fossils are plant or animal impressions preserved in rocks that provide

G. Finding practical application of
concepts and skills in daily living
H. Making the generalizations and
abstractions about the lesson
I. Evaluating Learning
J. Additional activities for
application of remediation
V. REMARKS
VI. REFLECTION
A. Number of learners who earned
80% on the formative assessment
evidence of life forms in the past.
 The geologic time scale is a record of the geologic history of the Earth.
 Geologic time scale is divided into eons, eras, periods, and epochs.
 Divisions within the geologic time scale are based on the appearance
or disappearance of organisms at specific times.
 A marker fossil is used to define and identify subdivisions of the
geologic time scale. It is a fossil of a plant or animal that existed for a
relatively short period of time.

Based from an old Filipino adage “Ang hindi lumingon sa pinangalingan, hindi
makararating sa paroroonan”, students will be going to reflect and relate the
adage on the topic being discussed which is geologic time scale.
Explore
Take note of your surroundings. How has the area where you live changed
over geologic time? How might it look thousands or millions of years ago?
What are the plants and animals that are presently living in your area? Do you
think that the types of animals and plants have changed much over time?
1. Which of the following are the major divisions of the geologic time scale?
2. Which of the following are the characteristics of a fossil that can be
considered as a marker fossil?
3. On which of the following periods do humans most likely evolved?
4. Which of the following statements are true about fossils?
5. Which of the following statements are true about the geologic time scale?
6. Which of the following periods is the oldest in the mesozoic era?

which they first existed?
8. In the table below, which fossil is most likely a dinosaur?
