RE: Proposal to Reconstruct Laiban dam
Our contacts fully endorsed you to investigate the geologic history of the area between Tanay, Rizal and Nakar, Quezon before the city builders of Quezon Province start reconstruction of the Laiban dam. This place has an important geologic landmark as stated in the documents. Attached herewith are the senate resolution, topography and soil formation, map, and pictures of the area. Your task is to determine what will be the impact in the landmark once construction pushed through and to make a scale model complete with a impact report about what could happen to the area in the future.
Respectfully yours:

You must present your findings by:
creating a pop-up bookletpop-up booklet that will show the layers of the Earth, its physical characteristics and important data; explaining in your scale model the impactthe impact that will be caused by the reconstruction of the Laiban Dam. It should include the effects before, during and after reconstruction of the Laiban Dam; as an addition, you may propose planspropose plans to ensure public safety.
You will show your pop-up booklet to a small audience of peers and justify your decisions of pushing through or not with the rebuilding of the dam.

Today we are going to begin a study of the LAYERS OF THE EARTH. Complete the first part of the chart (know) by writing what you know already about the topic. After you have finished this section, open your reference materials and quickly scan it. Use the information you learned from the notes to complete the second section (want to know). Write also how you will find a way to know what you want to know in the third box. You will complete the last section at the end of the module. You only have 15 minutes for this worksheet.

Brainstorm with your assigned team to answer this worksheet. Use this compare/contrast organizer to explore analogous as well as non-analogous characteristics of two concepts to the topic of LAYERS OF THE EARTH. You and your team only have 20 minutes to answer this part. So good luck and try not to waste time.
How will this help you in the reconstruction of the
Laiban Dam?
