CAPS, ATP & teachers guide for Geography grade 10 Learners textbook – Spot On S.A geography wiki online. https://sageography.co.za/wiki/grade-10/the-atmosphere/composition-and-structure-of-the-atmosphere/ And https://mrbloch516.edublogs.org/files/2014/03/Layers-of-Atmosphere-1vemszg.pdf Pictures will be presented during the lesson for clarity purpose. Classwork books. Notes book. Learners textbooks – Spot On Each learner will be provided with a work book that has blank space to fill the missing words. At the end of this lesson learners will be able to: Skill Define the layers of the atmosphere. Draw the structure of the atmosphere. Differentiate atmospheric layers. Objectives: Present data about layers of the atmosphere. Values Respect each other and work together as a group. Value the significance of the atmosphere..

Introduction 5 minutes. The A1 colorful pictures will be used throughout the lesson. Form the picture provided, learners will be asked which layer of the atmosphere is hot. They will provide answers. Teacher to learners “Did you know that the top of Mt. Everest is colder than the base?” Learners will be interested to know how is it cold at the top but hot at the bottom base. Then teacher will tell them, this is what we are going to learn in this topic. The structure and the composition of the earths atmosphere..

PRESENTATION PHASE 20 minutes. Composition of the atmosphere. There are many gages found in the atmosphere. Teacher will ask learners to name them from their prior knowledge. After learners have answered, now teacher will show the this picture and explain. “The main gases found in the atmosphere are Nitrogen 78.09%, oxygen 20.95%, water vapor 2%, aron 0.93% carbon dioxide 0.039% and others small gases..

Conti……. What is Atmosphere*? T he atmosphere: a gaseous cloud surrounding the earth. The atmosphere has 4 layers and 3 interphases. Troposphere. Tropopause. Stratosphere. Stratopause . Mesosphere. Mesopause. Thermosphere..

Troposphere: is the lowest layer of the atmosphere..

Stratosphere: atmospheric layer found right above the troposphere..

Mesosphere: layer of atmosphere that extend above the stratosphere..

Thermosphere: layer of the atmosphere right above the mesosphere..

conclusion 10 minutes. With this A1 picture the teacher will explain the following. Altitude, temperature, pressure. Altitude the range distance in each layer. Temperature, from this picture we can see that in troposphere temperature decrease with height, stratosphere temperature increase with height, mesosphere temperature decrease with height ant thermosphere temperature increase with height. And I will do the same for pressure..
