How are you?
4. Checking of attendance
Are there any absent today? None
Very good!
5. Review
Now before we start, can anyone recall what Teacher, it’s all about division of whole numbers.
was our previous lesson?
Very well said! And what are the 3 components Sir, the three components of division are the
of division? following: quotient, dividend and divisor.
Perfect!
B. Preliminary Activity
1. Motivation
Today we will have a game that involves
everyone! Listen carefully to the instruction. The learners will listen to the instruction
MATH RUSH (8 minutes.)
Direction: The class will be divided into groups
and will be asked to form a line. Several simple The learners will group themselves properly and
mathematical equations will be given and each will form a line.
member standing in front of the line will have to
go to the board to solve the given equation. The
first one to answer the equation correctly will
gain a point for the group.
The next member on the line will have to do the Each member will have to answer the given
same on the next round, until everyone gets to equations properly and will go to the back of the
solve on the board. line after answering on the board.
This activity is composed of few rounds to make
sure that everybody will have a chance to solve
in front and the standards for proper behavior
during the activity must be reminded to the
learners.
1. 24x8 = ? 1. 24x8 = 192
2. 54 ÷ 6= ? 2. 54 ÷ 6= 9
3. 115 – 34 = ? 3. 115 – 34 = 81
4. 305 + 22 =? 4. 305 + 22 =327
5. 11 x 11 = ? 5. 11 x 11 = 121
After the final round, the winner of the activity
will be announced and an extra credit or plus
point will be given to each members of the
group.
Excellent! Congratulations everyone, all you did
well!
Yes teacher! It was great.
Did you all have fun?
That’s great!
2. Presentation of lesson and objectives.
If you notice what you did earlier in the game,
you solved the equations using the four
mathematical operations. And our lesson for
today has something to do with the operations.
Teacher, it is the equations with different
Can anyone guess what our lesson is? operations in it and following the MDAS rule.
Very nice! Correct.
Our lesson is about MDAS which stands for
Multiplication Division Addition and Subtraction.
Today you will be able to:
represent and explain Multiplication,
Division, Addition and Subtraction (MDAS)
correctly
realize the importance of following rules
follow the MDAS rule in solving series of
operation
C. Activity (8 minutes)
To start with, you are going to discover
something about the lesson today.
Kindly gather with your groupmates for we will
have an activity. Each group will have a work The pupils will group themselves.
sheet and I’m looking forward that everyone will
participate.
Once finished, discuss on who will be your
group representative.
Do you understand? Yes teacher.
Group 1 Activity.
Use the number cards to fill in the blanks to
make the equation correct. Stick the number
cards using glue or a stick tape.
1. ___ + ____ - ____ x ____ = 1
Number cards: 2, 5, 3, 2,
2. ___ x ____ ÷ ___ + ___ = 15
Number Cards: 9, 3, 8, 4
3. ___ + ___ ÷ ___ – ___= 2
Number Cards: 2, 5, 8, 7
4. ___ x ___ - ____ ÷ ___= 5
Number Cards: 2, 3, 4, 9
Group 2 Activity.
Answer the simple questions inside the box to
get the correct number in order to solve the
expression.
Group 3 Activity
Solve the following expressions with series of
operations. Cut out the numbers that will
correspond to the correct answer from the
printed jumbled random number. Use the
scissors that has been provided to you.
1. 5 + 8 ÷ 2 – 7= ?
2. 4 ÷ 1 + 8 x 2 = ?
3. 2 x 4 – 9 ÷ 3 = ?
4. 22 ÷ 2 + 3 x 8 = ?
D. Analysis
Time’s up!
Alright everyone, settle down.
Let’s call in the representative of group 1 to Group 1
present their output
1. 2 +5 -3 x2 =1
2. 8 x 3 ÷ 4 + 9 = 15
3. 5 +8 ÷2 –7 =2
4. 2 x4 -9 ÷3 =5
Group 1 did a great job! Let’s give them a round
of applause
Next, the presentative of Group 2 Group 2
Good work group 2! Let’s clap everybody.
Last but not the least, Group 3! Group 3
1. 5 + 8 ÷ 2 – 7=
2. 4 ÷ 1 + 8 x 2 =
3. 2 x 4 – 9 ÷ 3 =
4. 22 ÷ 2 + 3 x 8 =
Everyone did great and all of you followed the
instructions.
E. Abstraction
In solving expression using the MDAS rule,
The multiplication and division operations must
be solved first.
After that, Addition and subtraction should
proceed.
Example:
8 + 14 ÷ 7 x 3 – 5 = ?
Solution:
As we can see in the solution, the first thing that
happened, is we divided 14 by 7 and the
quotient was multiplied by 3. After that, we
added the 8 to 6 which is equal to 14 and finally
we subtracted 14 from 5 and the result is 9.
So the answer is 9. Di you get it? Yes teacher!
Alright! How about you try solving it yourself.
Example: 2 + 30 – 5 x 4 =?
Who wants to volunteer to solve the expression?
I teacher!
So the answer is 12
Very nice!
Did everybody get the same answer?
Yes teacher we did.
Generalization
Do you have any questions about our lesson
today?
Let’s have a recap.
What does MDAS stand for?
Multiplication, Division, Subtraction and Addition
Great! What does DMAS rule state?
In solving expression using the MDAS rule,
The multiplication and division operations must
be solved first.
After that, Addition and subtraction should
proceed.
F. Application
Let me ask you, why do you think that we need
the follow the MDAS rule in solving series of Teacher, we need to follow the MDAs rule is
mathematical expression? solving series of mathematical expression so we
can avoid confusion and get the correct answer.
That’s correct!
Just like in life we need to follow rules in order to
avoid confusion and chaos. Rules are made to
keep us safe
What are the rules that you know aside from the
MDAS rule? Teacher, in crossing the road, we should walk
across the pedestrian lane.
That’s correct.
Teacher, we should always be on time in coming
Very well said! to school.
Assessment
Now to check if you really understand our
lesson, we will have a short quiz.
Kindly get a sheet of paper.
Please observe proper behavior during the quiz.
No standing and running in the room. No one The pupils will get their paper.

Listen carefully to my direction
Solve the following expression that shows series
of operations. Follow the MDAS rule, to get the
correct answer. Correct Answers:
1. 4 x 6 ÷ 3 + 8 =? 1. 4 x 6 ÷ 3 + 8 =16
2. 17 x 3 + 2 =? 2. 17 x 3 + 2 = 53
3. 5 + 8 ÷ 2 -7 =? 3. 5 + 8 ÷ 2 -7 = 2
4. 12 x 5 – 42 + 20 =? 4. 12 x 5 – 42 + 20 = 38
5. 4 ÷ 1 + 8 x 2 =? 5. 4 ÷ 1 + 8 x 2 = 20
