Teacher’s Concept:

46
 The different precautionary measures
before, during and after volcanic eruptions
are:

Before Volcanic Eruption:

1. Learn about your community’s warning
system and develop an emergency
communication plan. If there is none, work
with your community and develop one.

2. Prepare disaster supplies or a survival kit.

3. Your local government has evacuation

plans. Follow the evacuation plans. Follow the
authorities’ instruction and leave the area
before the disaster begins. Get to higher
grounds away from the eruption.

4. Evacuate before volcano erupts. It is not

safe to stay at home and wait for the start of
an eruption; doing so could be very
dangerous. Stay safe.

5. Have a plan in case family members are

separated during a volcanic eruption. Ask
help from your relatives or friends to get in
touch with your family.

6. Put all household materials inside your

house and bring animals and livestock into
closed shelters.

During Volcanic Eruptions:

1. Avoid areas near the slopes of the volcano.
Lava could flow near the slopes.

2. If caught indoors, close all windows, doors

and other openings. Remain indoors.

3. If caught outdoors, protect your head from

the rocks and immediately run indoors.

4. Avoid low-lying areas where lava flow could

reach and poisonous gases can collect.

5. Wear long-sleeved shirts and a pair of

pants to protect you from volcanic dust. Use a
dusk mask to protect your eyes or hold a
damp cloth over your face.

47
 6. Never watch an erupting volcano. Stay
away from it. A lateral blast of a volcano can
travel many miles away.

7. Avoid mudflows. Mudflows occur when rain

falls and mixes with ashes and debris. Stay
away from bridges and streams to avoid
mudflow.

After a Volcanic Eruption:

1. Listen to a battery-powered radio or
television for the latest emergency
information.

2. Stay away from volcanic ash fall. When

outside, protect your eyes, mouth and nose
from volcanic ash falls. Wear goggles to
protect your eyes and use a damp cloth to
protect your eyes and use a damp cloth to
protect your mouth and nose.

3. If you have a respiratory ailment, stay

indoors to avoid inhaling dust and ash. Follow
local health officials. Seek advice if it is safe
to go outside.

4. Clear your house from ash fall or dust. Ash

fall can cause roofs to collapse.

F. Developing ELABORATE
mastery Approach: Integrative Approach
(Leads to What is the importance of knowing the
Formative different precautionary measures before,
Assessment 3) during after volcanic eruption?

G.Finding practical Strategy: Development through Problem-

applications of Based
concepts and skills Your relatives lives near Taal Volcano. What
in daily living are the precautionary measures you will tell to
them so that they can prepare themselves
when it happen?
H. Making The teacher will cite some precautionary
generalization and measures about volcanic eruption. Then the
abstractions about pupils will classify if the precautionary
the lesson measures is observed before, during or after
volcanic eruption.
