III. INSTRUCTIONAL PROCEDURE

Teacher’s Activities Pupil’s Activities

 A. Conducting Pre Activity (Drill/
review/motivation)

Please all stand and let us Pray (The pupils will stand and pray)
In the name of the Father…… Amen.

Good morning/evening class. Good morning/evening ma’am, Good

morning/evening classmates.

Ok! You may now take your seat. Thank you ma’am.

Class I will check your attendance first.

Please say “present” as I call your name.
Abe, Melkrisia P. Present ma’am
Tiosan Markhill V. Present ma’am
That’s great, no one is absent for today.
Ok let’s start.

1. Drill
(Identify what kind of polygons are shown in
the flashcard)

Ok class, I have here flash cards showing

different kind of polygons identify what kind
of polygons I will show you.
Yes ma’am.
Here are the flashcards,
Rectangle
1.

Triangle
2.

Hexagon
3.

Square
4.

Octagon
5.

2. Review Ma’am, our lesson yesterday was

Class, anyone who can summarize what we symmetry.
tackle yesterday? Yes, Mayie?
Ma’am, our lesson yesterday was all
Excellent! Again what was our lesson about symmetry.
yesterday Ryzza?

That’s great! Now let me check your skill on

identifying symmetry. Answer this activity.
(pupils will answer)
Direction: Draw the other half of the figure.

Yehey!
No ma’am.
Good job class! All your answers are correct.
Let’s do the “fireworks” clap. Do you know
how to do that clap? Ok ma’am.

It’s ok, I will show you how to do it first then (The pupils will do the “fireworks” clap).
you will follow ok?
(The teacher will show how to do “fireworks’’
clap)
Now class it’s your turn.

3. Motivation Yes ma’am.

I can see that you are now ready for our next
lesson. But before that, we will sing a song
(The pupils will also do the song)
first.

I will play it in the monitor. I will be the one

who will sing it first and then you will follow
okay? (pupil’s answer may vary)
(The teacher will play the song).

Anyone who experience playing brickgame?

(The pupils will listen attentively)

B. Presenting the Lesson through an
activity
Class I have here a short text.
(The teacher will present the text)

Jena went to buy a gift wrapper that has

geometrical figures. She chose the gift
wrapper below. As she was wrapping her gift
she identifies the figures she saw.

Yes ma’am.

Class did you understand the text I just

Ma’am I saw square, rectangle, triangle,
hexagon and octagon.

(pupils will get an activity sheet)

(Activity Sheet)

Yes ma’am we understand.

Our lesson for today is all about

tessellation making pattern without any
gaps with shapes.

Our lesson for today is all about

tessellation making pattern without any
gaps with shapes.
read?

Very good!

Class, based on the figure shown on the text Yes ma'am

what are the figures you identify? Yes, Tin?

Very nice!

C. Performing an Activity

Now class, we will have a class activity and

you are going to draw figures that you can
connect without showing any gaps? Is that
clear?

Direction: Draw a tessellation pattern using

shapes like triangle, rectangle, hexagon,
octagon or combination.
Yes ma’am!
(teacher will distribute activity sheet)
(Activity Sheet) (Each member of the group will enjoy and
work cooperatively during the activity)

Yehey

(The pupils will do the “shake a boom

winner” clap)

Ma’am a tessellation is created when a

shape or set of shape is repeated over
and over again covering a plane without
any gaps or overlaps.

Ma’am a tessellation is created when a

shape or set of shape is repeated over
and over again covering a plane without
any gaps or overlaps.
Finish class?
Yes ma’am.
Class I want you to know that a tessellation
is created when a shape or set of shape is
repeated over and over again covering a
plane without any gaps or overlaps. Also
remember that the pattern must maintain a
format and in general, be pleasing to the
eye.

Do you understand class?

So class, what is our lesson for today? Yes, Yes ma’am.

Jamaica

Excellent.
Again class, what is our lesson for today?

Very good!

D. Exercises
Now, using the patterns you made in your
“graphing paper” you are going to show
your classmates what is the result of your
tessellating work.
Is that clear? Yes Janette? 1. not tessellate

E. Enrichment Activities
2. tessellate
(The teacher will divide the class into 2
groups)

I have here a white cartolina where your 3. tessellate

group will connect shape or shapes like
triangle, square, hexagon, rectangle and
other figures to make a tessellating pattern.

So the first group who will finish and post 4. tessellate

their work on the board will be considered as
the winner. Is that clear?

Now, I will distribute the activity sheet! 5. not tessellate

(The teacher will distribute the activity sheet)
You may start now.

After the activity.

Group ___ is the winner.

Group ___ give them a “shake a boom
winner” clap.

(The teacher will show how to do the “shake

a boom winner” clap)

F. Generalization
Again, class can you tell me what is None ma’am
tessellation? Yes Hyra.
Very clever!

Can you please repeat it Babylyn?

Very well said. Amen….
Goodbye ma’am.

Class, I want to remind you that you can

rotate the figures that can tessellate to make
tessellation pattern. Is that clear?

G. Application
(the teacher will show)

Class, I want each of you to make a

tessellation pattern for a floor plan or gazebo
floor plan design with color to correspond
with the shapes you use.

Understand?

IV. Evaluation
Ok class, I think you already know our
lesson for today. So I want you to get a
piece of paper and then you will answer the
following:

Direction: Tell whether the given design

shows tessellation. Explain.

1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

All of your answers are correct!

Good job.

V. ASSIGNMENT

Direction: Choose the figure which can

tessellate. Make a cut-out of that figure
using a colored paper and make a design
showing tessellation.

Class, do you have any question?

So that’s all for today.

Let’s have our closing prayer….
In the name of the Father….

Goodbye class.
