DOST to install 30 flood early warning systems in DVO region DAVAO CITY -- The Department of Science and Technology (DOST) regional office here will install 30 flood early warning systems in the Davao region. M i r a s o l D o m i n g o, DOST-XI assistant regional director, said the specific locations will be mapped by the Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services, being the agency responsible

for monitoring the weather system. Domingo told reporters during Monday’s Kapihan sa Dabaw at SM Annex that five of the 30 early flood warning systems will be installed in Davao City and the rest will be distributed to the other Davao provinces. In line with the project, Domingo said DOST will pilot a flood drill in communities along the Lipadas

River, which runs through many villages in Toril District. The flood drill will take place on May 17 and 18. Each early warning system, Domingo said, will help the community in mitigating the effects of flooding in their area and empowers people to protect and prepare against the destructive effect of floods. Based on a DOST brief-

er, the community-based flood early warning system “protects people’s lives and properties through a nonstructural method. The instruments to be used are also cheaper compared to automatic or telemetry system.” DOST’s main beneficiaries of the systems are flood-prone communities within relatively small See install, page A3

Strategies in Teaching Mathematics By Lourdes C. Laurete, Teacher III

Teaching Mathematics is not as easy as teaching one, two, and three or A, B, and C. It requires so much patience, perseverance, commitment and the most, the passion to painstakingly impart, share and teach the subject. That is why teachers are strategizing schemes and

interventions on how to effectively teach Mathematics to students. As another component of high-quality Mathematics instruction is the use of evidence-based strategies. An evidencebased strategy or practice is one whose effectiveness is supported by rigorous research. Strategies can

involve the following the explicit instruction, peer tutoring, and cooperative learning. Explicit instruction involves teaching a specific skill or concept in a highly structured environment using clear, direct language. Peer tutoring involves two students working together on an instructional activ-

ity, periodically switching roles as tutor and tutee. And, cooperative learning, involves students working together in a small-mixed ability groups to maximize everyone’s learning. Yes, it is not as easy but with great hard work, we as public school teachers can ink changes to the lives of the students.

Learning about earthquakes By MARILOU A. RABAGO Lala National High School

AN earthquake is the shaking of the surface of the Earth resulting from the sudden release of energy in the Earth’s lithosphere that creates seismic waves. Earthquakes can range in size from those that are so weak that they cannot be felt to those violent enough

to toss people around and destroy whole cities. The seismicity or seismic activity of an area refers to the frequency, type and size of earthquakes experienced over a period of time. Earthquakes are measured using measurements from seismometers. The moment magnitude is the most common scale on which

RA. Form No. 10.1 (MCRO)

earthquakes larger than approximately 5 are reported for the entire globe. The more numerous earthquakes smaller than magnitude 5 reported by national seismological observatories are measured mostly on the local magnitude scale, also referred to as the Richter magnitude scale. These two scales are numerically similar over their

range of validity. Magnitude 3 or lower earthquakes are mostly imperceptible or weak and magnitude 7 and over potentially cause serious damage over larger areas depending on their depth. The largest earthquakes in historic times have been of magnitude slightly over 9 although there is no limit to the possible magnitude.

Biblical reflection

consistently. Your goodness can magnify God in your life. He will become visible in your existence once you are doing the right things in your life. The people around you can see God in your presence as you go on in your journey in life. Maximize God in everything you do by doing great things beyond your capacity. What I mean is attribute to God all the things that you have done beyond your power to do

it. Honoring God is telling other people how God works in your life whoever you are. If the people can visualize the God who is working in your whole life, that is promoting God in your life. In that way, you love him because he is recognized because of you: Printing paid by: Edith Ranoa - Jordan and Crespina Ranoa - Bobong Balino– Cagayan De Oro: # 09187148435: Listen to me via Thunder

Ang akong pagbati ug pagrespeto sa atong Mahal nga Bayani sa Probinsya, Divine Master Ruben E. Ecleo, Sr. ug mga kaubanan niya sa General World Spiritual Division; Susamang pagbati ug pagrespeto sa atong inahan sa kapunungan ug lalawigan, Mommy Governor Glenda Buray Ecleo; Sa gikamingawan natong tanan, nga maoy gipahinungdan niining atong panagtigum karon, sa pagselebrar sa iyang adlaw’ng natawhan niining petsa 17 sa bulan sa Abril, atong Supreme President, Master Ruben Buray Ecleo, Jr. ug sa iyang mga kaubanan sa New World Spiritual Division, ingon man sa iyang pamilya; Sa atong Rubenian International President and Founder, Sir Ruben M. Ecleo I; Ngadto sa atong President sa pag-administer ug pagdumala sa atong kapunungan, Hon. Mayor Alan I Buray Ecleo; palihog ato silang palakpakan sa kanunay nilang pag-uban sa atong mga buluhaton; Ang akong pagbati, sa Executive Vice President sa atong kapunungan, Mr. Zacarias N. Vales, at the same time our PENRO-LGU Department Head; Sa mga Pillars sa atong kapunungan; First 13, First 24, 9 Planets, Board of Trustees, Coordinating Units’ Officials and Staff, National Management Offices Heads, Staff, Personnel and Volunteers, Chapter and Sub-Chapter Officials. Likewise, ang akong pagbati sa akong pamilya, sa akong mga igsoon, siblings, ug mga partidos o kaparyentehan; nga ania karon; Ngadto sa mga kaubang alagad sa gobyerno; mga kauban kong membro sa Sangguniang Panlalawigan, ug mga empleyado sa kapitolyo; sa atong Mayor dinhi sa lungsod sa San Jose, Hon. Allan II B. Ecleo uban sa iyang mga opisyales ug empleyado; sa atong mga Barangay Officials nga gipangunahan sa ilang mga Barangay Captains; Ang akong pagbati usab sa mga National Line Agencies nga nakigambit sa atong kalipay alang niining celebration (may recognize those who are present); ilabi na sa taga DepEd nga sa matag tuig kanunay ang ilang pagpakig-uban kanato sa susama niini nga mga activities; Sa mga Private Sectors, Civil Society Organizations sama sa NGOs, POs, Cooperatives, sa tanang PBMA Members ug mga Dinagatnons, guests, ladies and gentlemen, maayong buntag. Niining taknaa, atong gisaulog ang adlaw nga natawhan sa atong Supreme President. Pipila na katuig nga milabay, atong gisaulog ang adlaw’ng natawhan sa atong Mahal nga Ministro nga wala ang iyang pisikal nga presensya. Busa karon, sumala sa Corporate Code of the Philippines pinaagi sa giya sa Securities and Exchange Commission, siya ang atong Nominate Supreme President. Luyo sa iyang sitwasyon kun asa man siya dapit karon, ako nagatuo nga tuman usab nga kamingaw ang iyang gibati alang kanatong iyang mga katawhan, ilabi na niining okasyon. Nining milabay nga mga katuigan nga wala siya uban kanato, daghan mga panghitabo nga naghatag ug rason o nagpamatood ug prowiba sa matag-adlaw natong pagpuyo isip mga membro sa PBMA; atong nakita nga kun adunay ubang mga kaigsoonan nga nagmahuyang sa ilang pagtoo, daghan usab ang padayon nga nagmalig-on; kun adunay nagmasupakon, mas daghan usab ang nagmasinulondon; ug kun aduna nay napul-an sa pagsunod, daghan pa usab ang nagmadasigon sa pagpadayon sa pagtuman sa gibilin nga misyon. Apan ang mas labing mahinungdanon, niining kasamtangang pagkawala niya sa atong kiliran, atong nakita ang tinuod nga mga gibati, panghunahuna, prinsipyo, ug tinuohan sa matag-usa kanato, pinaagi sa mga attitude, ug behavior nga atong gipakita sa matag-usa, ug sa pagtamod sa iyang mga gitudlo ug ginasugo kanato. Nagpasabot, sa iyang physical absence iyang makita ug mailhan pag-usab ang matag-usa kanato, susama nga ang atong panag-ila sa usag-usa, may kabag-ohan usab, diin ang matinud-anon nga pagkamanagsoon nagpatigbabaw taliwala sa kalipay ug kasakit nga atong nasinati. Karon kay birthday man sa atong Master, mangutana tingali ang matag-usa kanato diha sa atong kaugalingon, unsa man kaha ang akong iregalo kay Master nga wala man siya diri? Mga kaigsoonan, mao kini ang akong buot ipasabot sa unahan, niining adlaw sa natawhan ni Kuya, ato siya regaluhan sa makabubuhong natong pagminahalay sa matag-usa; pagminahalay dili lamang tungod kay membro sa kapunungan, kun dili usa ka pagmahal nga nagadawat sa kun unsa man siya sa iyang pagka-siya; meaning igsoon sa kalipay ug kasakit. Kitang tanan mahal sa atong Ministro, kun kanang iyang pagmahal sa matag-usa kanato, atong ipa-ambit sa usag-usa, dako ug dili masukod nga kalipay ang iyang bation sa maong regalo. Sama sa usa ka ginikanan nga mahimoot ug malipay, kun makita niya ang iyang mga anak nga nagsinabtanay ug nagminahalay. Busa, mga kaigsoonan, niining ika-57 nga kaadlawan sa pagkahimugso sa atong Nominate Supreme President, Master Ruben Buray Ecleo, Jr., atong tamdan ang iyang pagmahal ug pagtulon-an, pinaagi sa mga serbisyo ug programa sa atong Misyon, ubos sa kadumalahan sa atong Presidente, Hon. Mayor Alan I B. Ecleo. Atong iregalo kaniya ang unconditional nga pagminahalay, kay sa pagminahalay anaa ang pagsinabtananay, sa pagsinabtanay anaa ang panaghiusa, ug sa atong panaghiusa maoy kalipay ug ikahimoot sa atong celebrant. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MASTER…HAPPY MASTER’S WEEK KANINYONG TANAN…Daghan salamat.
