A Detailed Lesson Plan in Mathematics for Grade V

I. Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, 80% of the Grade V pupils should be able to:
a. Identify the different kinds of polygons;
II. Subject Matter:
Topic: Identify Polygons
Materials: visual aids, answer sheets
III. Procedure
Teacher’s Activity Pupil’s Activity
A. Routinary Activity “Good morning, Ma’am!”
“Good morning class!” (One student will lead the prayer)
“let us pray first…”
(Checking of attendance)
“Class how are you today?” “We are doing great, Ma’am!”
“Okay! That’s great. So are you
ready to listen to our new topic “Yes, Ma’am.”
today?”
“Now, let’s begin with a group “Yes, Ma’am.”
activity. Are you ready?”

B. Motivation
Group Activity: (The students will be (The students may come up with the

be given with materials and
instructions written on it. Every
group are given 3 minutes to answer
the activity)

Group 1

OCTAGON

Group 2

SQUARE
 Group 3

POLYGON

C. Presentation
Very Good. Group 3 got the correct Polygon is a closed plane figure made up of
answer to the guess the word game three or more line segments joined at their
which is POLYGON. Now, let me endpoints.
introduce to you the different types
of polygons. Would someone read
this definition of polygon for me?

Thanks. Do you know that polygons

are named according to the number
of its sides?

Okay! Now, let’s take look at the Octagon

figure with group 1 came up with.
(While pointing at the octagon, the
teacher will ask the students.) What
shape is this? Can anyone tell me
what makes octagon different from
other shapes?
An octagon has 8 sides.
It has eight angles.
(The teacher will write these properties
below the shape on the board.)

Nice answers! In addition to your

answers, triangle has a prefix “octa”
which means “8”. Let’s proceed with
the next polygon that group 2 came
up with. (While pointing at the
quadrilateral, the teacher will ask
the students.) What polygon is this?
What can you tell me about it?
Quadrilateral
A quadrilateral has four sides.
It has four angles.
“quad” means “four”. (Write these
properties below the shape on the board.)

Continue by explaining that “quad

means four”. Then, write quad
means four below the quadrilateral.

Let’s proceed with the next polygon. Pentagon

(While pointing at the pentagon, the A pentagon has 5 sides.
teacher will ask the students.) What It has five angles.
polygon is this? What can you tell “pent” means “5”
me about it? (write these properties below the shape on
the board.)

What is the prefix of pentagon? “pent means 5”

What does “pent” means?
 Continue for hexagon, heptagon,
octagon, nonagon and decagon.
(Students should be able to identify
the number of sides and possibly
angles for each polygon.)
(The students will continue to identify the
number of sides and angle for each
polygon. They will also be thinking ahead
and already have the prefix for hexagon,
heptagon, octagon, nonagon, and
decagon.)

That’s good class. I know that you’ll

find easy to name of identify the
different types of polygons. Now,
can somebody give me the answer?
What do you call to a polygon having Regular Polygons
equal sides and equal angles?

D. Analysis

You got it! Now, Let’s have a short

activity before you take the quiz.

Using a ruler, draw the following

regular polygons inside each box.

E. Generalization
Now, Class, let’s remember that
polygons are closed plane figure (The students answer)
made up of three or more line
segments joined at their endpoints
and it is named according to the
number of its sides. Can you again
tell me the different types of
polygons?
 F. Application (Sample of answer sheet)
Group Activity: Regular and
Irregular
Polygons
Organize students in group of four
and provide each group an answer
sheet. The students will complete the
table.

IV. Evaluation Identify the number of sides and triangles for each polygon.
