LESSON PLAN IN MATHEMATICS IV

October 28 – 29, 2019

I – OBJECTIVE
 Describe parallel, intersecting, and perpendicular lines.
 Illustrate parallel, intersecting, and perpendicular lines.

II – SUBJECT MATTER
Topic: Identifying Parallel, Intersecting, and Perpendicular Lines
Materials: Illustrations of parallel, intersecting, and perpendicular lines, cutouts of lines,
drawings of pairs of line segments, ruler, set square
References: K to 12 Grade 4 Curriculum Guide, LM Math Grade 4 pages 155 and 156

Value Focus: Orderliness

Prerequisite Concept and Skills:
 Recognizing a point, line segment, and ray

III – INSTRUCTIONAL PROCEDURE

A. Preliminary Activities
1. Drill
Have a drill on identifying points, line segments, rays, and lines using flash cards
with geometric figures. After the activity, ask pupils to give a representation of points,
line segments, rays, and lines. Also provide exercise on naming points, lines, line
segment, and rays.

2. Review
Game: “What Am I?”
a. I have an exact location in space. I am represented by a dot. (point)
b. I have no endpoint and I can go on and on in opposite directions. (line)
c. I start out at a point and can be extended in one direction. (ray)
d. I am a part of a line with 2 endpoints. (line segment)

3. Motivation
Say: Picture yourself in front of the flagpole forming lines for the flag raising
ceremony. How should you form your lines?
Relate the value of orderliness in forming their lines during flag ceremony.

B. Developmental Activities
1. Presentation
Have a game on “Forming Lines”. Let them form different kinds of lines
depending on the instruction given.
a. All those whose birth month is June will form 2 straight lines.
b. All those who are wearing T-shirts will form 2 lines that meet at the center.
c. All those whose birth month is March will form one line and another line for those
who were born in August. Then, form 2 lines that show square corners.

2. Performing the Activities

Group the pupils into six teams. Ask each group to work together in illustrating
the given figures to show the different kinds of lines using cutouts.
Group 1: Crossroads
Group 2: Time using hands of the clock
Group 3: Designs of a ceiling
Group 4: Design of a T-shirt
Group 5: Electronic posts
Group 6: Window panes
After all the groups have finished, ask them to display their outputs on the board.
Let them tell something about the figures that they formed and what kind of lines
each figure shows.
 3. Processing the Activities
After all groups have presented their output, ask: “How did you find the activity?
How were you able to illustrate the figure given to you? Did you cooperate with your
group mates?”
Discuss with the pupils the different kinds of lines, namely: parallel, intersecting,
and perpendicular lines. Show them the different symbols used to represent each
kind of lines.

4. Reinforcing the Concept and Skill

Discuss the presentation under Explore and Discover on page 155 of LM Math
Grade 4.
Have the pupils to answer the items under Get Moving on page 155 LM Math
Grade 4.
To further reinforce the skill, ask the pupils to answer the items under Keep
Moving on page 156 of LM Math Grade 4.

5. Summarizing the Lesson

Lead the pupils in generalizing what parallel lines, intersecting lines, and
perpendicular lines are.
Parallel lines are lines that do not meet.
Intersecting lines are lines that cross each other.
Perpendicular lines are lines that intersect and form square corners.

IV – EVALUATION

Draw a circle for parallel lines, triangle for intersecting lines, and rectangle for
perpendicular lines.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

V – ASSIGNMENT

Illustrate parallel lines, intersecting lines, and perpendicular lines in a one whole sheet of bond
paper.
