5. Review
 Class, what have you discussed last meeting?

6. Motivation Teacher, we discussed about …

Class, I have here a set of pictures. I want you

to observe and name each.

Envelope

Television

Table

Bag

Very good.
 Class, what have you observed by looking at towel
those pictures?

Very good.

A rectangle has two dimensions. Teacher, they are all in rectangular shape.

What are those?

Very good.

The length and width

B. Developmental Activities

1. Presentation of the topic

Class, today, we will discuss about finding

the area of a rectangle.

To find its area, you will need to follow the

formula: A=LXW.

Do you understand?

2. Activity

This time, I will divide your class into 2 Yes, teacher.

groups. After that, you need to answer the
following activity.

Group 1

Neo and his younger sister Narlyn made a

flower garden as shown below. They
planted it with roses of different colors.
Find the area of their garden.

6m

4m

A= LxW
A=6m x 4m
A= ?

Group 1

flower garden as shown below. They
planted it with roses of different colors.
Find the area of their garden.

6m

4m
 A= LxW
A=6m x 4m
Group 2 A= 24 sq. m.

Andrew wants to build a pool in his

backyard. Its length is 10 meters and
width of 6 meters. What supposed to
be the area of his pool?

A= LxW
A=10m x 6m
A= 60 sq. m.

Group 2

Andrew wants to build a pool in his

backyard. Its length is 10 meters and
width of 6 meters. What supposed to
be the area of his pool?

A= LxW
A=10m x 6m
A= 60 sq. m.

3. Analysis

Class, what have you observed in your

activity?

Very good. Teacher, we solved the area of the flower garden and
the pool.
What shape were the flower garden and the
pool?

How did you find the area of those two?

Rectangle, teacher.
Very good.

4. Abstraction By multiplying its length and width.

Again class, what is our topic today?

 What are the two dimensions of a rectangle?
Teacher, our topic today is about finding the area of a
What operation did you use to solve the area of rectangle.
a rectangle?

Very good! Length and width

What is the formula in finding the area of a

rectangle? Multiplication

Very Good!

A= 5 in x 6 in
A= 30 in

2. A= LXW
A= 10 in x 7 in
A= 70 in

3. A= LXW
A= 11 in x 3 in
A= 33 in

4. A= LXW
A= 10 cm x 4 cm
A= 40 cm

5. A= LXW
A= 6 cm x 4 cm
A= 24 cm

IV. Evaluation

Direction: Find the area of the

following rectangles.

V. Assignment

Direction: Solve the following problems using the

formula A= L X W

1. Finding the area of a rectangle

whose length is 12 cm and width 9
cm.
2. Find the area of a rectangle of
