Good Morning everyone!
Good Morning Madam!
Have you already eaten your
breakfast?
Yes.
Very Good! Now that you already
have energy and we have a really
nice weather today, I guess its a nice
time for us to travel.
Yes!
Is everyone excited?
I. REVIEW
Okay, I will divide the class into 4
groups and each group will visit a
different place.
(The teacher divides the class
according to seating arrangement)
But, to be able to go to places, each
group will need a passport. Each
group will have one if they will be
able to answer a question I will be
asking. The group will have one
representative. The representative,
who raises his /her hand first on my
cue, will have the chance to answer
the question. If one group answered
wrong, the other group still have a
chance to answer it.
Okay Madam.
A=
bh
2 . The area of a triangle is
equal to the product of its base and
height divided by two.
Okay, lets start. What is the formula
for finding the area of a triangle?
That is correct! Very Good. (The
representative of the group who
answered the question correctly will
go in front)
The area of a square is equal to the
square of its side of A =
s2 .
The second question would be: What
is the formula for finding the area of a
square?
That is also correct! (The
representative of the group who
answered the question correctly will
go in front)
The third question would be: What is
a regular polygon?
Correct! (The representative of the
group who answered the question
correctly will go in front)
For the last group, describe a
pyramid.
Correct! And the combination of the
areas of the triangles on its sides plus
the area of the shape on its base is
called the surface area.
(The representative of the last group
will go in front and the teacher will
give them an information sheet and a
pyramid net)
A regular polygon is a polygon
which has equal sides.
A pyramid is a solid figure which
has triangles on its sides.

Evaluation.
Get a one-half sheet of paper and find the surface area of the following
pyramids.

Assignment
A roof is shaped like a square pyramid. One bundle of shingles covers 25
square feet. How many bundles should you buy to cover the roof.
