Detailed Lesson Plan in Mathematics 7

CONTENT STANDARD:

The learners demonstrates understanding of key concepts of algebraic expressions,

the properties of real numbers as applied in linear equations, and inequalities in one
variable.

PERFORMANCE STANDARD:

The learners is able to model situations using oral, written, graphical and algebraic
methods in solving problems involving algebraic expressions, linear equations, and
inequalities in one variable.

I. OBJECTIVES
In this lesson, the students are expected to:
1. Adding polynomial using tiles.
2. Solve problems involving addition of polynomials.

III. PROCEDURE

TEACHER’S ACTIVITY LEARNER’S ACTIVITY

A. PREPARATION

 GREETINGS (Students will stand.)

“Good morning, class!” “Good morning sir!”

 CLEANING
“Before you take your (Students will check the pieces of
seats, kindly pick up pieces paper around them and arrange
of paper and align your their chairs properly.)
chairs properly.”

“Please all be seated.” “Thank you sir!”

  GIVING OF HOUSE RULES
1. Listen when your
teacher is talking.
2. Follow direction
quickly.
3. Respect others, respect
yourself and respect
your school.
4. Raise your hand to
speak to the class.
5. Be safe. Be kind. Be
honest.
“Yes sir!”
“Understood?”

 CHECKING OF
ATTENDANCE (The class monitor will give the

for today?”

B. REVIEW/RECAP

“Yesterday, you learned about The

Laws of Exponents and the rules
to be follow.”

“Now, who can give me the rules

on how to evaluate Laws of Students:
Exponents?” “Give one.” “Power Rule”
“Product Rule”
“Quotient Rule”
“The Law for Zero Exponent”

“Very good!”
(Students will answer
respectively.)
“When we say Power Rule, what “Copy the base if the same term,
happened to the base and to the if not multiply the base and
exponent?” multiply the exponent.”

“Copy the base if the same term,

“What about in a Product Rule?” if not multiply the base and add
the exponent.”

“Copy the base if the same term,

“What about in a Quotient Rule?” if not divide the base and subtract
the exponent.”
 “Any number raise to zero is
“How about the Law for Zero always 1, where base or a number
Exponent?” is not equal to zero.”

C. MOTIVATION

“I have here pictures of different

things you can find in the
environment even around you.”
(Presenting different picture on
the screen.) Students:

“What you have observe in the

pictures?” “Animals”

“Okay, nice. What else? “Fruits”

“Yes we have fruits, and the last “Furniture”

one?

“Very good, we simply categorize

those pictures by term.”

“Impressive! Now you have an idea

for our next topic.”

D. LESSON PROPER
“Our topic for today is all about
the Addition of Polynomials. At the
end of this lesson you are
expected to understand and
analyze problems involving
addition of polynomials. You can
also solve problems in real life
situation by simply applying what
you have learned on this lesson.”

“We have,

“Let x be a circle, and y be a
triangle.”

2x + 3y + 4x
 = 6x + 3y

“Familiarize yourself with the tiles

below.”
“Ca

→ Stands for (+ x 2)

→ Stands for (- x 2)

represent the following quantities using

the above tiles?”
1. x – 2
2. 4x +1

Solution:
1. To represent x – 2, we get one
(+x) tile and two (-1) tiles.

= -

2. To represent 4x +1, we get four

(+x) tiles and one (+1) tile.

 “Now you had an idea on how to
add polynomials using tiles.”

“Let’s try with numbers.”

“But before that, do you have any (Students will give their idea about
idea, what is similar terms or like similar or like terms.)
terms?”

“Good job!”

“Like terms are terms that have the

same variable (or variables) with the
same exponent.”
Solution:
“Example: we have,”  They both have x as the
 3 x and 5 x variable.
 They both have y and z as
2 2
 −8 y +7 z and 12 y −4 z the variables and the
exponent is 2.
 They have the same term
 2 5

and 5.

“You can only combine terms

together if they are like terms.”

“To add like terms together, you

add the numerical coefficient and
keep or copy the same variable as
well as the same exponent or
simply copy the literal coefficient.”

Solution:

“Any question about the addition “No sir!”
of polynomials with like and unlike
terms?”

E. APPLICATION
“Now, let’s apply what you have
learned in our discussion today.”
“Yes sir!”
“Are you ready class?

“Get your notebook and answer

the following problem on the
screen.” Solution:
“13x”
1. 3x + 10x “12xy”
2. 10xy + 2xy “2x + 7y”
3. 2x + 4y + 3y “2ab + 2ac”
4. 2ab + 2ac “4 a2 + 12a”
5. 6a + 2 a2 +6a + 2 a2

“Who can answer the question (Students will go on the board and
#1?” answer.)

“What about #2?

“What about #3, #4 and #5?

F. GENERALIZATION
“When adding polynomials with
“To generalize our topic for today, the same term, we simply add the
what you have learned?” coefficients and copy the same
variable.”

“Excellent, you really listen to our

 discussion today.”
