LESSON PLAN IN MATH 10

FOR ONLINE CLASS
Week 1

MELC : determines arithmetic means, nth term of an arithmetic sequence and sum of the
terms of a given arithmetic sequence.
I. OBJECTIVE :
At the end of the presentation the students should be able to find the nth term of an
arithmetic sequence.
II. CONTENT :
A. TOPIC: ARITHMETIC SEQUENCE
B. CONCEPT :
An arithmetic sequence is a sequence where every term after the first is obtained by
adding a constant called the common difference.
an = a1 + (n – 1)d, where an ⇒ nth term, a1 ⇒ the first term, d ⇒ the common difference, n
⇒ no. of terms
C. REFERENCE :
Learner’s Module, pp. 12 - 14
D. DELIVERY MODE:
Video presentation uploaded in FB Group Page, Messenger and Youtube, or Live Stream
with Power Point Presentation and whiteboard
E. MATERIALS :
Laptop, White board pen, White Board
F. VALUE FOCUS:

every term after this problem.
 a1 = 3
d=7–3=4
n = 25
a25 = ?
Process:
Formula:
a25 = a1 + (n – 1)d
Substitute:
a25 = a1 + (n – 1)d
a25 = 3 + (25 – 1)(4)
a25 = 3 + (24)(4)
a25 = 3 + 96
a25 = 99
D. ANALYSIS
What is asked in the problem?
In the given sequence, what is
the first term?
How will find d in the given
sequence?
What is the value of n?
E. APPLICATION
Peter want to buy a new
cellphone but he had no money
at hand. He only depends on
the allowance given by his
mother. So, he decided to save
an amount from his allowance
for this purpose. On the first
day, he saves 2 pesos, 5 pesos
on the second day, 8 pesos on
the third day, and so on, by
increasing 3 pesos every day on
his savings. On the 30th day,
what is the amount should
Peter set aside for his saving?

d=3
n = 30
a30 = ?
Process:
Formula:
a30 = a1 + (n – 1)d
Substitute:
a30 = a1 + (n – 1)d
a30 = 2 + (30 – 1)(3)
a30 = 2 + (29)(3)
