IV. Procedures
BEFORE THE LESSON
Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity
A. Preliminary Activity ✓ Classroom Cleanliness ✓ Arrange their chairs,
cleaners will clean the
“Good morning, Class, room
cleaners please clean
the room”.
 “sir” raised hand and leads the
✓ Prayer prayer
"Who wants to
volunteer to lead the
prayer”

✓ Attendance “None sir”

“Are there any absents
today?”

“Very Good”

✓ Since this is the first

time the teacher will
teach, he will introduce
himself briefly and
establish a house rule

“Are there any “None sir”

questions about me?”
B. Reviewing Previous “Before we proceed to our new
Lesson/ Presenting lesson, let us first review
New Lesson translating verbal phrase to
algebraic phrase”

Direction: (orally)
Translate the Following into
Algebraic phrases.

1. A number increased by
five
“What is the answer?” *Raised hand “sir, x + 5”
“Correct, next…”

2. A number diminish by
seven
“What is the answer?” *Raised hand “sir, x – 7”
“Correct, next…”

3. The quotient of a
number and four,
multiplied by three
“What is the answer?” 𝑥
*Raised hand “sir, 3 ( )”
4
“Correct, next…”
 4. 1 less than the sum of *Raised hand “sir, (2x2 + y) - 1”
2x2 and y
C. Establishing a Purpose “Let’s take 2x2 + y – 1 as an
for the New Lesson example”

“Can you guess what variable is *Raised hand “sir, it’s x and y”
used in this algebraic phrase?”
“correct”
“How about the constant” *no one will answer
*guess “numbers”
“If we represent variables in
letters, what do you think will
represent constant?”

“Correct, so in our expression *Raised hand “-1 sir!”

what is now our constant?

“excellent” *Claps

“Variables and constant are

actually a terminology you
should know in studying
algebra.”
“Today, we are going to discuss
these terminologies in order for
you to study algebra easier”

DURING THE LESSON

D. Presenting “First let us define Algebraic
Examples/Instances of Expression”
the New Lesson
“Please read” *Raised hand
“Algebraic Expression are
combination of variables, numbers
and at least one arithmetic
operation”

“Now, what are arithmetic *Raised hand

operation?” “Sir, its addition, subtraction,
multiplication, and division”
“Great, correct”

“When we are in elementary,

we know about expressions
without letters, as you recall, *Student will Listen
 we call it numerical expression
and fraction expression”

“But now as we add letters or

symbols in an expression or
phrase, it will now be called
Algebraic expression”

“For example, 2x2 + y – 1”

“Are we clear? Questions so “None sir”

far?”
E. Discussing New “Now, in an algebraic
Concept and Practicing expression, we also have terms
New Skills #1 we call as constant and
variables”
*Raised hand
“Please read” “Constant – is a symbol which has
a fixed numerical value.”
“In other words, constant is a
number without a variable that
will change its numerical value”

“For example, in the expression

2x + 1, we have 1 as our
constant

“Next is Variable, please read” *Raised hand

“Variable – a symbol for unknown
number/s. it is usually a letter like x
and y”
“Actually, to represent an
unknown variable you can use
whatever letter you like from a-
z, as long as you put a condition
like let a be the number or let c
be the number”
“Clear?”
“So, what are the variable used “x sir”
in 2x + 1”

“Next is Term or Algebraic

term”

“Please read” *Raised hand


“So, in algebraic expression a
term is separated by arithmetic
operation”
“Algebraic Term – is either a single
number or variable, or numbers and
variables multiplied together. The
term’s number part is called the
Numerical coefficient while the
variable or variables is/are called
the Literal coefficient/s.”

“For example, in the expression

2x + 1, we have 1 arithmetic
operation which is the plus sign, *The student will listen as the
so our term is 2x and 1” teacher explains each term

“So, if I were to ask you how

many terms are there in 2x + 1,
the answer should be 2”

“We also have 2 and 1 as our

numerical coefficient, and x as
our literal coefficient”

“Understood?” “Yes”

“Next is degree of each term, “none”

please read”

*Raised hand
“Again, what operation is used “Degree of each Term – the sum of
in sum?” the exponent of the literal
coefficient.”
“Okay, so in other words,
degree of the term is the “Addition sir”
exponent, if we have 2 variables
in one term, we will add their
exponent to get the highest
degree”

“For example, 2x2”

“What do you call the small “Exponent sir”
number above x?”
“Exponents or power. Correct! “The number of times the base is
what does it represents?” multiplied by itself”
 “Correct, 2x2 is actually just
2(x)(x), we combined the two x
to make it shorter. This is good
because for example we have to
multiply a hundred of x’s,
instead of writing (x)(x)(x)(x)(x)
... we can just write x100”

“So, what is the highest degree “2 sir”

in the expression 2x2 + y – 1?”

“Questions so far?” “None sir”

F. Discussing New “Now let’s go to the type of
Concept and Practicing algebraic expression”
New Skills #2
“We can actually classify
expression base on their terms”

“Again, what is term?” “This are the variables, numbers,

or a combination of variable and
number that is separated by an
arithmetic operation”

A Polynomial is an algebraic
expression that represents a sum
of one or more terms. Exponents
of a polynomial should always be a
whole number and a positive
integer.

“Please read” Types of expressions according to

number of terms.
“Monomial comes from the 1. Monomial – is a
word “mono” which means polynomial which contains
one” one term.
“For example, 4x2 or 3xy” “This
is an expression with one term
only”

“Binomial comes from the word 2. Binomial – is a polynomial

“bi” which means two” which contains exactly two
“For example, a + b or 7xy + 2” terms.
“This expression has two unlike
terms or it has only 1 operation
either plus or minus”
 “Trinomial comes from the 3. Trinomial – is an
word “tri” which means three” expression which
“For example, a + b + 2c” “this composed exactly three
expression has three unlike unlike terms.
terms and is separated by 2
operations either plus or minus”

“Questions?” “None sir”

“So, let’s try”

Direction: determine what type

of expressions are the following “Binomial sir”
1. x2 + 1 “Monomial sir”
2. 15xyz “Polynomial Sir”
3. 2c2 + 3d3 + 4e4 – 2 “Trinomial sir”
4. xy + x - y
