7. MOTIVATION

At this moment we will sing a

song. But before that, please watch and listen
to the video that I am going to show you
about the song “Multiply by two”.

Lyrics:
I am a magic hat
 Can you guess what I do?
Anything you gave me
I’ll double it for you
(students will watch and listen to the video
One ball becomes two, presentation)
And two balls become four
Three cats become six
But I can do more

Four planes become eight

Five dolls become ten
Six cows become twelve
And I can double them again

All the things in this world

I can multiply for you (by two)
But if you just want to be happy
Here’s what you do

(Chorus:)
Just find the joy in your heart
And multiply it by two
With a little bit of magic
It’s easy to doo, doo, doo, doo (repeat)

Give me seven lovely flowers

I’ll give you fourteen back
Give me eight big cookies
I’ll give you sixteen you can stack

Do you have nine balloons?

I’ll give you eighteen to fly
But if you just want to be happy
Here’s my advice
(chorus)

If you give me ten robots

Well, I can turn them into twenty
You can share them with your friends
And you would still have plenty

All the things in this world

I can multiply for you (by two)
But if you just want to be happy
 Here’s what you do
(chorus)

It is about Multiplication Ma’am

B.PRESENTATION

Now, what have you understand about the

song?
Yes Ma’am. It is about Multiplication.
Very good!

I guess you have an idea about our lesson

today right? Today we are going to discuss about
Multiplication of Fractions.
Very good,
I know you are familiar with multiplication
in your previous years but this time it is a
different kind of multiplication. Since we are
dealing with fractions what do you think
about what we are going to discuss today? Multiplying Fractions is done when we use
the operation of Multiplication on Fractions.
Very good!

Now who can give me an idea about what is

Multiplying fractions?

Very good!
Yes Ma’am
Now, I want you to face and copy what is
written on the visual aids (or on the board)
before I will explain and show to you how it
is done.

Are you done copying?

Okay, please bear with me.

Example 1.

1 2
x
2 5

There are 3 steps in Multiplying Fractions:

Step 1. Multiply the top numbers.

1 2 1x2
x = =2
2 5 ❑

Step 2. Multiply the bottom numbers.

1 2 1x 2 2
x = =
2 5 2 x 5 10 Yes Ma’am

Step 3. Simplify the Fraction.

2 1
=
10 5

Do you understand class?

Now, I am going to give you another

example. This time I want someone to come
Okay Ma’am
here in front to solve it with the use of steps.
