1. Prayer:

“Let us ask for the divine grace The class will stand.
from our Almighty Father. Please
rise.”

May I request anyone from the A student will volunteer to

class to lead the prayer? lead the prayer. The class will
pray.
2. Greetings:

“Good afternoon class!” “Good afternoon Sir Velado!”

VELADO, GIAN CARLO L. | 1

 “Are you feeling good today?” “Very good, sir!”

“I am very much delighted to hear

that.”
3. Review/Drill:

“Is everyone ready for our next “Yes sir!”

lesson?”

“Ok, but before we proceed to our

next lesson, let us all have a short
review about our previous
lesson.”

“Who among you can still recall “It was about Ratio.”

“Who can still remember what “Ratio is the comparison of

it?”

“Very good. It seems that you

know very well your ratio. Let us
now proceed to our lesson for
today. But before that, let us first
have a game.”
4. Motivation:

“The name of the game is ‘How The students will listen

first group the class into four,
starting from the right side going
to the left. Now start counting.”

“Now that we have a group, I will

now explain the mechanics of the
game. I will give to everyone a
cartolina, a marker pen, series of
questions and a paper that has a
code into it that you will answer.
Every member of every group
should cooperate in answering the
questions. The code for the paper
can be found in the answers that
you have solved, and the answers
can be compared to the equivalent
number of a letter. After
answering, a representative must
present their answers on the

 board. The group that gets the
most points wins the game.”

“Now, is everyone ready to play

the game? Well then, let’s start.”

One of the groups wins the

game.

“Well done to the winning group.

To the other groups, it’s okay that
you lost. You can get better next
time.”

B. Development of the Lesson:

Teacher’s Activity Learner’s Activity

1. Presentation:

“So, what have you concluded in Students raise their hands and
our game today? What have you give answers based on their
noticed or observed about our observation.
game today?”

“Very good observation. Our

lesson for today has a very deep
connection to our last lesson,
ratio.”

“Now, based on our game. How Students raise their hands and
did you come up with the explain how they got the
answers?” answer.

“Very good. We first write down

the given data, which are the
ratios. Then we compare the
numbers to get the missing
number.”

“Now that you have an idea about

our lesson, let us now proceed to
our lesson for today, which is
Proportion.”
2. Discussion:

“Our class for today is about “Proportion is a comparison of

observations, what do you think is
the meaning of proportion?”

“Very good. Just like ratio, “Proportion is the comparison

Proportion is also a comparison of of two or more ratios.”
objects or numbers. What else?”

VELADO, GIAN CARLO L. | 3

“Very good observation. Based on
our game earlier, we compared
two ratios. Proportion is the
comparison of two or more ratios.
And just like ratio, it compares
objects or numbers.”

“Now based on your observation “Write the given data first and
earlier, how did we get the compare the two ratios to find
missing data?” the missing number.”

“Right. First, we write down the

given data. The format given for
solving the formula is A: B = C: D,
A and D being the Extremes and B
and C being the Means. Based on
this, we can write the formula (A)
(D) = (B) (C) to find the missing
data. Always remember that
means are in the middle, and the
extremes are found outside.”

“For example, 3:5 = 6:x. First

thing to do to solve this equation
is to write down the given. Now
that we have the given, next step
is to identify the means and
extremes. The means in this
equation are 5 and 6, and the
extremes are 3 and x. Now
substitute the given into the
formula of the proportion (A) (D)
= (B) (C), which gives us (3)(x) =
(5)(6). 3 times the x gives us 3x
and 5 times 6 gives us 30. This
leads us to 3x = 30. Now, to
eliminate the numerical
coefficient which is the 3, we
divide the equation by 3, and we
will get the answer of x=10.”

“Another example. 4:8=16:x. “Write the given data and

do to solve this equation?” extremes.”

“Very good. We must first write “8 and 16 for the means, and 4

the means and extremes in the
equation. What are the means and
the extremes in the equation?”

“Very good. The means are 8 and “Substitute the given data to
16, and the extremes are 4 and x. the formula.”
Now, what would we do to the
means and the extremes?”

“Very good. We substitute the “(4)(x)=(8)(16).”
means and extremes to the
formula (A)(D)=(B)(C), which
will give us what?”

“Very good. (4)(x)=(8)(16). Now, “Multiply the means and

what would we do to the data?” multiply the extremes.”

“Very good. We multiply the data “Divide the numerical

to get 4x=128. Now what will we coefficient to both sides of the

“Very good. We divide both sides “x=32.”

by 4 to eliminate the number.
What will be the answer now?”

“Very good. The answer will be

x=32.”

“Do you understand the lesson, “Yes sir.”

class?”

“Now for a word problem. John “Write the given data and

rooms, how many chairs does he
need? What is the first step in
solving again?”

“Yes. Write the given data and “20:1=x:4”

identify the means and extremes
in the question. Now what is the
format of the equation?”

“Very good. 20:1=x:4. Always “Substitute the given data to

correctly. The first ratio is 20
chairs and 1 small room. The
second ratio is x number of chairs
and 4 small rooms. Don’t put the
given like 20:1=4:x because the
answer will be wrong. Okay, so
what will the next step be?”

“Very good. Substitute the given “(20)(4)=(1)(x)”

into the formula, which will be?”

“Very good. (20)(4)=(1)(x) or “X = 180 chairs.”

just x. Now, what is x?”

“Very good. X = 180. So John

needs 180 chairs to fill 4 small
rooms. Always remember to write

“To strengthen your learning “Yes sir.”

today, I will give questions and
you will answer it in the board.
Are you ready?”
