Lesson Plan in Mathematics 3

I. Objective: Convert common units of measure from larger unit to smaller unit and vice
versa: liter (L) to milliliter (mL)
II. Subject Matter:
A. Topic: Converting Common Units of Capacity Measure
B. References: TG, Math 3, pp. 354 – 357
CG, Math 3
LM, Math 3, pp. 282 – 285
C. Materials: activity cards, empty plastic bottles of different capacities, pictures,
charts
D. Value Focus: Cleanliness, Decisiveness, Thriftiness

III. Procedure:
A. Preliminary Activities
1. Drill
1.a. Use flashcards. Pupils use mental math in finding the product/quotient.
a. 10 x 1000
b. 3000 x 50
c. 12 x 2000
d. 3000 ÷ 2
e. 1000 ÷ 50
1.b. Find the fractional part
2 1
a. of 600 d. of 500
3 2
3 2
b. of 1000 e. of 1000
4 3
2
c. of 1000

2. Review: You can use paper and ballpen to solve.

1. A pupil weighs 40 kilograms. How much does the pupil weigh in grams?
2. A cat weighs 500 grams. How many kilograms does it weigh?
3. Rommel bought 30,000 grams of potatoes. How many kilograms of
potatoes did he buy?
4. Nora needs 2 kg of glutinous rice to cook suman. There are only 250g
per pack of glutinous rice in the store. How many packs of rice will
she buy?

3. Motivation:
(Show a picture of an estero with plastic bottles, cups, cans, etc. floating)
Say:
 Look at the pictures and describe what you see.
 What becomes of our surroundings if there are many garbage around
especially plastic bottles, cups, cans, etc.?
 What will happen to the people living in the dirty places?
 Why do we need to keep our surroundings clean?
 How can you maintain cleanliness in your house? In your classroom?
 What objects in the picture can we reuse or recycle?

B. Developmental Activities
1. Presenting the Lesson
Ask:
 When you buy bottled mineral water or juice, aside from the brand,
what other things do you want to see in its label? (expiry date,
ingredients, nutrition facts, serving size, etc.)
 Is it necessary to know those facts? Why?
  In our lesson in science, what state of matter is water or juice?
 What are some other examples of liquid?
 What are the characteristics of liquid?
Say: Today we will reuse empty bottles with different sizes in our lesson.

2. Performing the Activity

a. Set standards for group activity
b. Group the pupils and give each group the materials and activity
cards

Groups 1 and 2
Materials: 2 empty bottles that can hold 500 mL of water and 1 liter
of water
Directions: Pour the 1 liter of water in the 2 empty bottles
Questions:
a. How many liter of water is transferred to the 2 empty
bottles?
b. How many milliliters are there in 1 liter?

Groups 3 and 4
Materials: 4 – 250 mL bottle of water and an empty bottle that can
hold 1 liter of water
Directions: Pour the water from the four 250 mL bottles to a 1 liter
bottle container
Questions:
a. How many milliliters of water did you pour in the 1 liter
bottle container?
b. How many liter are there in 1000 milliliters?

c. Publishing and Reporting by groups

3. Reinforcing the Concept

A. Discuss:
a. Mother bought four 500 mL tetra packs of milk. How many liters
is it?

4 x 500 mL = 2000 mL
Since 1000 mL = 1 liter
Therefore: 4 – 500 mL of milk is equal to 2 liters

b. Libra has to transfer 5 liters of cooking oil in bottles of 200 mL.

How many bottles will she need?

Since 1 liter = 1000 mL

5 x 1000 = 5000 mL : 5000 ÷ 250 = 20
Therefore, 20 – 250 mL bottles are needed.

B. Let pupils do Activity 1 in the LM for reinforcement

4. Summarizing the Lesson

Ask : How do you convert liter to milliliter? Milliliter to liter?
To convert liter to milliliter, multiply the number of liter by
1000
To convert milliliter to liter, divide the number of milliliters
by 1000
 5. Applying to New and Other Situations / Application
Let pupils do Activity 2 in the LM by pairs. Discuss their solutions
and answers.

IV. Evaluation
Direction: Read, think and solve the following problems.
1
1. Rogel drinks 2 L of water in a day. How many milliliters of water does he drink in
2
one day?

2. A water tub can hold 75,000 mL of water. How many liters of water can a water tub
holds?

3. Noy Jose buys 15,000 mL gasoline everyday. How many liter costs Php 50.00, how
much will he spend everyday?

4. How many 250 mL of water are there in 2 L of water?

5. Mother tells you to buy 3 liters of milk in the store. There are only 500 mL of milk
sold in the store. What will you do? How many bottles of milk will you buy?
