(Name of the student), Kindly lead Yes we are.
the prayer.
Good morning ma’am
B. Greetings
Good morning class.
Thank you ma’am
Okay, you may now take your sit.
C. Attendance
(the teacher will call the secretary to report (the secretary will report the absent for
the absent for the day) the day)
(Name of Student), is there any absent
today?
We are good, we are great, we are very
well today!
Okay, thank you! How are you today class?
I’m glad to hear that.
(teacher will show a figure using the
flashcards)
ENGAGE
Children, I have here some flashcards. I
want you to tell me what you can see in the
flashcard.
( student will answer the question of the
teacher)
What is the shape Ma’am, it’s a triangle
that you can see in
this flashcard?
How many triangles Ma’am, there are 4 triangles
are these on the
flashcard?
How about in this 3 triangles
figure? How many
different triangles can
you see?
Very good class! Let’s give them an
excellent clap!
Before we proceed to our new
lesson, let’s have a review. Who can
still remember our past lesson? (pupils will raise their hands)
Yes, student A.
Ma’am our past lesson was about
finding the area of parallelogram.
What is the formula to find the area
of parallelogram?
The formula to find the area of
Very good! Student A. parallelogram is A=bxh
Let us try to answer this.
24 cm2
4 cm
6 cm
3m
21 m 2
7m
Class, don’t forget the unit.
What is the unit that we use when we find
the area?
Ma’am, the unit that we use to find the
It’s seems that you learned from our last area is square unit.
topic, so now let’s proceed to our new
lesson.
EXPLORE
Class, look around. What can you observe Ma’am, It looks like fiesta
in our classroom?
Ma’am because there’s a lot of
Why did you say so? banderitas
When you saw banderitas, what comes into Ma’am, when I saw banderitas I feel the
your mind? celebration of fiesta
Exactly!
Let’s assume that next week is the fiesta of
our patron saint.
Who is our barangay patron saint? Our patron saint is Saint Andrew (San
Andres)
But when do we celebrate our feast day Ma’am, we celebrate our barangay
here in San Andres? fiesta every 30th day of November
Okay, Very Good! Give yourselves a very
Kris Aquino clap!
What is the common shape of banderitas?
Ma’am, triangle.
We shall explore more about that shape.
EXPLAIN
Okay, very good! Since we’ve done
to finding the area of parallelogram
now, what do you think is our finding
for today?
Finding for today is area of triangle.
Class, let sing a song
(what is the finding, finding for
today? What is the finding, finding for
today)
(The teacher and the pupils will sing (What is the finding, finding for today?
a song to open the magic cards.) FINDING THE AREA OF TRIANGLE)
Our topic for today is finding the area
of Triangle.
Thank you children, I think you are
all good in singing.
So, in preparation for our fiesta I’m
going to make a banderitas. And
these are the materials that I’m going
to use.
(coloured paper and scissor)
(teacher will present the problem)
I have here a rectangular and
parallelogram coloured paper it has
a length of 10 cm and a width of 6
cm. I want to make 2 pieces out of
these papers with triangular shape.
We will find out the area of these two
pieces.
(teacher will show her cut outs)
What is the shape of these paper Rectangle and parallelogram
before?
Since I cut it diagonally. What shape was Ma’am, the shape now is triangle.
formed?
Very good! So now, this is the half part of
the paper.
(pupils will raise their hand)
When we solve the area of rectangle. What
is the formula that we use? Ma’am the formula in finding the area of
rectangle is A=Lxw
In parallelogram, what is the formula that we
use? Ma’am, the formula in finding the area of
parallelogram is A= bxh
But, in the problem I want to know the area
of these triangular shape.
What do you think is the formula that we (if the student’s answer is correct, she/
need to use, since we cut it and it divided by he will explain)
two? A=lxw/2 or A=bxh/2
Triangle
Excellent! Let’s try it in our problem.
Who want to solve on the board?
(pupils will solve on the board)
(the teacher will call pupil to answer)
Okay, Very good! Give her/him an Excellent
clap.
Class, but this is the formula of triangle
A= ½ (B X H)= or B x H/ 2=
ELABORATE (the pupils will response)
Okay class, it seems that you really know
how to derive the formula in finding the area
of triangle. I want you to work with pairs.
Kindly pick a piece of paper under your desk
and you’re going to find your partners
according to the colour that you get.
I will play the song MATHDALI. Before the
song end I want that all of you are with your
partners.
(teacher will present a given figure)
The area of these figure is 15 cm2
3 cm
And the area of this figure is 21m2
7m
(through station game)
Group Activity- Punta ka dito bes!
Take them as a group to have a
station activity outside of the room.
They will go in every station to
accomplish their task.
Before the pupils go outside.
Teacher will give an envelope in
every group. It contains the materials
that they can use in every station.
Station 1- the figure by group is
given.
Station 2- they use ruler to measure
the figure that they get.
Station 3- they are going to write
their work in the clean paper and
solve it.
Station 4- they make a yell
Station 5- (in the classroom) they will
present their work.
Very good class, Give yourselves a good
job clap!
Class, based on our discussion and
on the activity that we had, what is
the formula in finding the area of
triangle?
How did we get the formula for
finding the area of triangle?
Okay very good!
