ENGAGE
Present a map of the world, Asia, and the Philippines. Give students time to

geologic setting (Asia) and the active faults and trenches map of the
Philippines.)
Questions:
a. What similarities and differences do you observe on the maps?
b. Identify specific areas that are prone to tsunami.
EXPLORE
Activity:
Panel Discussion (or Role Playing with research materials made by
