III. LEARNING ACTIVITIES
A. Review/Drill
Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity
“Good morning class”
“Good morning sir
“Please stand up”
(All students will stand up)
“Naupan, Please lead the prayer”
(Naupan will lead the prayer)
“Please arrange your chairs and pick up
the pieces of papers under your chairs” (The students will arrange their chairs
and pick up the piece of paper.)

“Okay please sit down and be silent”

(the students will sit down)

“If I call your name for attendance

please say HERE” “Yes sir”

(Checking attendance)
 B. Motivation
Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity
Okay class group yourself into two. Jordan: Sir my Partner is Dumalagan.

Sanchez: I’ll take Caalim as my partner

Sir.

Since you have found your partner we

will start the activity. Okay class do you
know the one of the famous educational
game today it’s called “4 pics 1 word”.
I’ll give you three sets of pictures. The
group who can guess what the pictures
means and got a highest score receive
a gift. Just clap your hands three times
to recognize that you want to guess or
answer the puzzle. If a group has a
wrong answer the other group is given a
chance to answer the puzzle. You are
only given one chance to answer. Okay Students: Okay Sir
class?

In a count of three you may start

interpreting, analyszing and guess the
pictures. One… Two… Three!
(The students start guessing the
picture.)

Jordan and Dumalagan: Clap! Clap!

Clap!

Yes Jordan and Dumalagan. What is

your answer?
Jordan and Dumalagan: Fraction Sir.
Very Good Jordan and Dumalagan you
got 1 point for that answer.
Jordan and Dumalagan: Thank You Sir.
Your welcome! So here is the second
set of pictures. You may start guessing
in One… Two… Three…
 Sanchez and Caalim: Clap! Clap! Clap!

Yes Sanchez and Caalim please tell me

your answer? Sanchez and Caalim: Checking is our
answer sir!
Checking is correct!! Good job guys.
Sanchez and Caalim: Thank you sir.

Your welcome Sanchez and Caalim. So

we are now in the final round for now
each group has already 1 point each. In
this round the first group who can guess
this set of picture will be our winner in
this game. So good luck guys and you
may start guessing in One… Two…
Three…

Jordan and Dumalagan: Clap! Clap!

Clap!
Yes Jordan and Dumalagan. What is
your answer? Jordan and Dumalagan: Review is our
answer sir.
Excellent! Jordan and Dumalagan your
answer is correct. Let’s give them a
round of applause for our winner and Jordan and Dumalagan: Thank you sir.
here is your gift.
C. LESSON PROPER
ACTIVITY: “Please get one strip
according to what color you want” (red,
blue, green, orange, yellow, brown, pink
and black) (Students will pick the color that they
want)
“Those who have the same color of the
strip, please group yourselves”
“Okey sir” (Students with the same color
group their selves)
“Now please choose your leader that
will lead the group, and a secretary who
will be responsible to list the members
of the group who are actively
participating in the activity and those
who didn’t not participate.
“Yes sir” (The member of each group
will choose their best leader and will
“All leaders please come in front and choose an honest secretary)
get your corresponding color”

(Leaders stand up and pick their

“Here’s the instruction, each group has corresponding color)
their corresponding color that has
different Quadratic Equation”
(Students attentively listening to the
“Collaborate with your group mates and instruction)
use the knowledge and skills that you
acquired in the previous lesson to solve
the zero’s of each equation, you only
have 5 minutes to solve each of the
equation”
(Students start sharing their ideas in
“Okay times up, each leader please their group mates)
post your solution on the board”

“Yes sir” (Student will post their solution

in the board but some group have no
solution and some comes up with the
wrong answer because they get the
“Now let’s check your solution” quadratic equation that is not factorable)

“Okay sir”
C. Analysis
“Why some of the equations have no
solution?” “Sir because we can’t factor the
equation”
“Yes class, because I provide 4
factorable equation and 4 not factorable
equation”
 “Sir what is factorable and not
factorable?”
“Factorable is the quadratic equation
that can be solve by factoring”
“How about sir the not factorable
equation?”
“Not factorable quadratic equation can
be solve by completing the square”
D. Abstraction
“Completing the square is a method to
produce a perfect square trinomial or
PST on the left side of the quadratic
equation. Then, use the Square Root
Property to solve the equation.” (Students are listening well)

“Now to understand how to solve

quadratic equation by completing the
square, let’s try to answer those
equation on the board who has no
solution” “Yes sir” (Students are interested to
learn another way of solving quadratic
equation)

E. Assignment

Study in advance our next lesson all about the Sum and Products of Roots.
