DEMONSTRATION LESSON PLAN IN MATHEMATICS GRADE 4

Fourth Quarter
I. Objectives:
A. Content Standards: The learner demonstrates understanding of the concept of
area.
B. Performance Standards: The learner is able to apply the concepts of area to
mathematical problems and real life situation.
C. Learning Competencies: Visualize the area of triangles. M4ME-IVb-58
Derive the formula for finding the area of a triangle.
Find the area of a triangle.
D. Integration: Values; (Respect for the Flag, Cooperation, Conservation), Music,
PE, Arts, Science, Araling Panlipunan
E. Strategies: Differentiated Instruction, Group work, Think-pair- Share, Games
II. Content: Find the area of triangles using sq cm and sq m/sq km.
III. Learning Resources
A. References
1. Teacher’s Guide: TG. pp. 272-276
2. Learner’s Materials: LM pp. 203-206
3. Textbooks pages
B. Other Learning Resources: Activity sheet, ruler, pen
IV. Procedures
A. Preliminary Activities
1. Drill:
Have a drill on solving number sentences involving multiplication and division.
2. Review: (Games)
Conduct a review on finding the area of square, rectangle and parallelogram.
Review the formula and give exercises for pupils to do.
3. Motivation:
Say: One of our national symbols is our flag. Show a picture of a flag. Then,
ask the pupils to describe familiar shapes seen in the flag, including details like
color and other symbols. This can lead to the infusion of the value of respect
for the flag.
Say: We shall explore more about one of the shapes in our flag which is the
triangle.
B. Developmental Activities:
1. Presentation:
Present the situation to the class. Ask the pupils to read and understand it.
The Mayon Volcano situated at Daraga, Albay is said to have a perfect cone
or triangular in shape. Its base ranges about 13 km and its height of about 8
km. What is the area of the volcano?.
Ask:
1. What is the shape of the structure?
2. How long is its base?
3. What is its height?
4. What is ask for in the problem?
5. What will you do to solve the problem?
2. Performing the Activities
A. Have pupils work in groups
Provide the groups with bondpaper, marker, ruler, activity sheets.
 DATE:
TIME:

Given the problems and materials, ask the groups to think of ways to find
the area of the structure.
3. Processing the Activities:
Let pupils check their answers and present their outputs one at a time.
How did you find the activity?
How were you be able to find the area of the triangle?
4. Reinforcing the Concept and Skills
(Think-Pair-Share)
The mysterious “Bermuda Triangle’ has a vaguely triangular shape marked by
the Atlantic coast of the Florida panhandle (in the United States), Bermuda,
and the Greater Antilles. It has a base of 30 km and a height of 20 km. Find
its area.
Ask: What are you going to do in order to preserve the structures such as the
old historical houses found in Vigan, Ilocos Sur?
5. Summarizing the Lesson
Let the pupils give the following generalization by asking; How do you find the
area of a triangle?
(The area of a triangle with a given base (b) and height (h) can be solved by
the formula.
Area of a Triangle = one half of the base times the height or
A = ½ b x h and is expressed in terms of square units.)
C. Assessment:
Find the area of the triangle.
