IV. PROCEDURE
A. Reviewing yesterday’s lesson or
Presenting the new lesson
B. Establishing a purpose for the
Lesson
Prepare a deck of cards. Ask volunteer student to draw a card from the
deck.
Ask the students what is the probability of the chosen card being a Spade.
Ask the students what is the probability of the chosen card being a King.
Post the following problem on one side of the board, expected to be solved
by the students at the end of the lesson.

C. Presenting examples/instances Let the students explore the “Flipping a Fair Coin” which is another
of the new lesson example of probability.

Divide the class into 5 groups.

Ask: What is the probability of flipping head on each flip?
What is the probability of flipping tail on each flip?

D. Discussing new concepts and
practicing
 New skills # 1
E. Discussing new concepts and
practicing
 New skills # 2
F. Developing mastery
G. Finding practical applications
of concepts and skills in daily
living
H. Making generalizations and
abstractions about the lesson
I. Evaluating learning
J. Additional activities for
application or remediation
V. REFLECTION
A. No. of learners who earned 80%
on the formative assessment.
B. No. of learners who require
additional activities for
remediation.
C. Did the remedial lessons work?
No. of learners who have caught
up with the lesson.
D. No. of learners who continue to
require remediation.
E. Which of my teaching strategies
Let the students predict the probability of flipping heads if they will flip
the coin 100 times.
Let the students predict the probability of flipping tail if they will flip the
coin 100 times.
Let the students do the experiment of flipping the coin. Let each group flip
the coin 50 times and make a tally of number of heads or tail rolled.
Make a summary table of the students’ data.
Group 1 Group 2 Group 3 Group 4 Group 5
Head
Tail
Let the students analyze the data by asking:
1. What is probability of flipping a head?
2. What is the probability of flipping a tail?
3. Is the result of flipping the head or tail the same as what you have
predicted?
4. Did every group get the same result?
5. Why were they different?
Let the students get the average of flipping a head or tail for all groups and
ask if the average is closer their predicted probability.
Introduce the terms Theoretical Probability and Experimental Probability.
• Theoretical Probability- favorable outcome divided by total possible
outcomes or what you expect results to be.
• Experimental Probability- is computed after performing an experiment
on the actual situation. The actual result of the experiment is used to
determine the probability of an event.
NONE
Students will calculate the theoretical probabilities of events involving a
die and then perform the experiment. They will compare their
experimental probabilities to their theoretical probability.
Ask: Which situations do you encounter experimental and theoretical
probability?
Ask: How is experimental probability related to theoretical probability?
 The value being approach by the experimental probability is the
theoretical probability.
 If the number of trials in the experiment will be increased, it may
approach the theoretical probability.
Individual Seatwork: On a ¼ sheet of paper, solve the posted problem at
the beginning of the lesson.
Assignment: Solve the problem. Write your solution on your notebook.
If a dice is thrown five times out of which thrice it gives a 4, then
what will be the experimental probability of getting a 4 with dice?
Compare it with theoretical probability.
