III. LEARNING EXPERIENCE


A. Preparatory Activities
1. Drill - Mental Computation
Drill on identifying prime and composite numbers.
Strategy: fishing
Materials: fish cut outs, improvise aquarium and fishing rod
Mechanics: A pupil be asked to catch fish which has a number pasted on it. The child
identifies if the number is prime or composite.
2. Review:

a. 18 =

b. 27 =

c. 24 =

3. Motivation:
Tree different candies are to be put into candy bags so that the bags contain equal
amounts of candies of the same kind. There are 180, 240 and 300 of the different kinds of
candies respectively. Each candy has to got into a candy bag, that is, there must be no left
over candies. How many candy bags that could be filled? How many candies will there be in
a each bag? Can you think of away of getting the answer to this problem? Let us analyze the
problem. Since there should be no candies left over, the number of candies. This means that
the number of candy bags must be a factor of 180, 240 and 300. Let us work with simpler
numbers first.
