Lesson Plan in Mathematics

For Eleazar Nacion

I. Objectives:

At the end of the lesson, the student will be able to:

1. Identify the concept of division without regrouping

2. Recognize the value of fair sharing
3. Apply the concepts learned in an actual scenario

II. Subject Matter: Division without Regrouping (Basics)

Referencehttps://www.ducksters.com/kidsmath/division_basics.php
Materials: Worksheet, manipulatives

Value: Fair Sharing

III. Lesson Proper

a. Preliminary Activities:
 Prayer
 Greetings
b. Review: The student will solve the equation on the board.

c. Motivation:
The teacher will how the student’s Christmas vacation was and what
his New Year’s resolutions are.

d. Lesson Proper:
 What is division?

Division is breaking a number up into an equal number of parts.

Example:

20 divided by 4 = ?

If you take 20 things and put them into four equal sized groups,
there will be 5 things in each group. The answer is 5.

1
 20 divided by 4 = 5.

 Signs for Division

There are a number of signs that people may use to indicate

division. The most common one is ÷, but the backslash / is also
used. Sometimes people will write one number on top of another
with a line between them. This is also called a fraction.

Example signs for "a divided by b":

a÷b
a/b
a_
b

 Dividend, Divisor, and Quotient

Each part of a division equation has a name. The three main names
are the dividend, the divisor, and the quotient.

 Dividend - The dividend is the number you are dividing up

 Divisor - The divisor is the number you are dividing by
 Quotient - The quotient is the answer

Dividend ÷ Divisor = Quotient

Example:

In the problem 20 ÷ 4 = 5
Dividend = 20
Divisor = 4
Quotient = 5

*Note: The teacher may use manipulatives (blocks, colored cubes, etc.) to show the
student concrete examples of using Division. She may also share real life experiences
where in fair sharing takes place (e.g. sharing of food, money)

 Special Cases
There are three special cases to consider when dividing.
1) Dividing by 1: When dividing something by 1, the answer is the
original number. In other words, if the divisor is 1 then the
quotient equals the dividend.

2
 Examples:

20 ÷ 1 = 20
14.7 ÷ 1 = 14.7

2) Dividing by 0: You cannot divide a number by 0. The answer to

this question is undefined.

3) Dividend equals Divisor: If the dividend and the divisor are the
same number (and not 0), then the answer is always 1.

Examples:

20 ÷ 20 = 1
14.7 ÷ 14.7 = 1

e. Activity

Let’s Practice!

Divide the following. You may use manipulatives in answering the

problems.

1. 36 ÷ 12 = ____________
2. 100 ÷ 25 = _____________
3. 27 ÷ 9 = _____________
4. 40 ÷ 5 = _____________
5. 54 ÷9 = _____________
f. Generalization
 Division is one of the four basic operations of arithmetic, the
others being addition, subtraction, and multiplication.
 Division is breaking a number up into an equal number of parts.

IV. Evaluation: Divide the following.

V. Assignment: Find the quotient.
