A. Define atmospheric pressure.
B. Describe the relationship between atmospheric pressure , altitude and temperature.

II. Subject Matter:


A. Topic: Atmospheric Pressure
B. References: TG, LM, CG, Exploring Life Through Science

III. Procedures:

Teacher’s Activity Students’ Activity


A. Routinary Activities

B. Review
Did you think that the air around us has
its weight? Yes Ma’am.

The air around us has weight and we


actually measure it, particularly for the
purpose of predicting weather patterns.

C. Motivation
We will have a spelling today, get a ¼
sheet of paper.

2. Air Mass 2. Air Mass
3. Maritime Air Masses 3. Maritime Air Masses
4. Continental Air Masses 4. Continental Air Masses

6. High Pressure Area 6. High Pressure Area
7. Cool Air 7. Cool Air

9. Rises 9. Rises
10. Falls 10. Falls

D. Presentation
1. Activity
Watch a video about Atmospheric
Pressure: Definition and Effects.
What is atmospheric pressure? The air’s mass produces a downward force that
exerts pressure on the surface of the Earth. The
pressure exerted by air is called atmospheric
pressure.
What unit is atmospheric pressure
measured in?
Does the air weigh at sea level?
What is the atmospheric pressure at
sea level?

How many pounds does the air weigh


at sea level?

2. Analysis
What are the two determining factors
for atmospheric pressure?

What happens to atmospheric


pressure as you go up in altitude?
It decreases.
Why do the atmospheric pressure
decreases as you go up in altitude?

3. Application
How are we affected by atmospheric
motion?

4. Abstraction

Since air is matter, then it has mass. The air’s


mass produces a downward force that exerts
pressure on the surface of the Earth. The
pressure exerted by air is called atmospheric
pressure.
An air mass is a large section of the Earth’s
atmosphere near the Earth’s surface that has the
same temperature and contains the same
amount of moisture as the surface.
Air masses that originate from the sea and
are therefore moist are called maritime air
masses, and those that come from the land are
dry are called continental air masses.

IV. Evaluation
1. What is atmospheric pressure?
2. How will you differentiate maritime and continental air masses?
3. What happens to the atmospheric pressure as the altitude is going up?
4. What is the relationship of atmospheric pressure, altitude and temperature?
5. What is the movement of cool and warm air?

V. Assignment
In a 1 whole sheet of paper, you answer this question:

 What are your contributions to making our air unsafe?
