Everyone, count the different shapes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

of this Figure.

How many circles are in the figure? Three !


How many triangles? Three !
How many rectangle? Four !
Do: Let the pupils color the circle
black, color the rectangle yellow, and
color the triangle blue respectively.

Good job everyone!

1. Motivation
I have here objects and fruits that
are cut into haves. I will give each of
you the half of the figure.

(Concrete objects and fruits)

Stand up everyone and look for the


other half of the objects and fruits
while singing a round song to the
tune of “Hello, How do you do”

Are you ready?


Yes teacher!
Okay, let’s sing together...

Hello, hello, hello,


Hello, How do you do
I’m glad to be with you.
My partner where are you?
Shalalala, shalalala ~
Do you find your partner already? Yes teacher!

Very Good!

Now, sit beside your partner

A. Developmental Activities
1. Presentation
Examine the objects and fruits
closely.

Which pair is divided equally?


Ours teacher!
Those with objects and fruits equally
divided will stand and show to the
class then put it in the table.
Two!
Into how many parts are these object
and fruits divided?
Equally divided
What can you say about the two Have similar sides facing each
parts? other

Great idea!
These parts are symmetrical. Because they have similar sides
facing each other.
Why do you think they are
symmetrical?

Very Good!

Those who are holding not equally


divided objects please rise, then
show it to the class ang put it in the No teacher!
table.
Because they don’t have similar
Are these objects and fruits sides facing each other.
symmetrical?

Why?

Very Good!

I’ve prepared a video that we’ll be


watching together that will provide
additional visuals and explanations
about symmetrical shapes and
objects. (42 seconds Music Video
about symmetry)
When we say Symmetry it is when a
figure has two sides that are Mirror
images of one another.

The line that we draw when we


match
The halves of the shapes or figures is
called “line symmetry”

2. Activity
Each pair earlier will be provided a
piece of bond paper. Let the pupils
fold the paper into half. Let them
draw half of any object on the folded
side and cut/tear along the lines on
it.

Sample:

Heart!
Yes teacher
Yes
Because they have similar sides
facing each other.

What object did you make?


Are the two parts equal?
Is the object you made is
symmetrical ? Circle!
Why?
Two
3. Analysis Yes
Do: Show a piece of paper and fold Yes teacher!
the paper at the center. Draw a half Yes
circle. Then, open the paper. Because they have similar sides
facing each other.
What figure /shape is formed?

Into how many parts of the shape is


divided?
Are the two parts have the same in The two parts don’t have the same
shape? in shape and in size .
In size?
Are the two parts symmetrical?
Why? Because they don’t have similar
sides facing each other.

Do: Show a cut-out of a piggy bank.


Fold it at the center. They are shapes that dont have
the same sides facing each other if
Are the two parts have the same in folded into half.
shape and in size?

They are not symmetrical.


Line of Symmetry
Why?
Shapes or figures are symmetrical
4. Abstraction when they match exactly when
What can you say about the shapes? folded together in halves.
Symmetry is when a figure has
Very Good! two parts that are mirror images
Some shapes have symmetry, some of one another.
have no symmetry.
What do you call the line that we A figure is symmetrical if you can
draw when we match the halves of draw a line
the shapes or figures? through a picture of the object
When are shapes or figures and along either side the image
symmetrical? would look exactly the same.

Again class, What is Symmetry?

Excellent!
How do we know that a figure or
object or shape is symmetrical?

Very Good!

5. Application
As I call their names, each pair will
stand up and have to draw a line of
symmetry to their chosen shape.
lV. Evaluation :
Is the dotted line on each shape a line of symmetry? Write yes or no.
V. Assignment:
Draw at least five symmetrical figures then show a line of symmetry.
