Detailed Lesson Plan in Math 3

I. Objectives
Within the 60-minute period, the pupils should be able to:
a. identify symmetry and line of symmetry in a given shape and real world
examples;
b. show appreciation on the importance of symmetry;
c. demonstrate cooperation in doing the group work activity;
d. complete the missing half of a symmetrical object by applying their
understanding of symmetry.

II. Subject Matter

III. Procedure

Teacher's Activity Learner's Activity


-Good Morning Class!
-Good Morning Teacher!

-Are you ready class?

(Show one by one the figures)

(will show the correct answers)

-Now, what do we call these lines?

-Very good!

*Motivation* (pupils will answer)


-Before we start, I have a friend. Do you
want to meet my friend?
-My friend is SpongeBob! Do you know
SpongeBob?

-He is a very good friend. Say hi to him!

-He is here because he needs our help. He


needs to find the half of his figures so
that he can put them to his house. Do you
want to help him?

-To help him, I need 20 volunteers. We -Share ideas!


will call this "Where's my other Half?”.
Volunteers will get one cut figure in the -Yes Teacher!
box and will look for the half of it. First
two pairs who will finish the game will
have a prize. Do you want a prize?

-You are given 10 seconds to find your


partner. Time starts now!
-Yes Teacher!
(after the game)
(pupils will raise their answers)
-Who won the game?

-What did you do to find the half of your


figure?
-Kinds of Lines.
-That's right! What figure was more
challenging to find?

(follow up question)

-SpongeBob is very glad because we -Yes teacher!


helped him find the halves of his figures.

-Now class do you have an idea about our -Yes teacher!


lesson for today?
-Hi SpongeBob!
-And what is it?
(If no one can guess, show puzzled
letters)
-Yes Teacher!
-Our topic for today is all about
symmetry. So from the figures we got
from SpongeBob, what is symmetry?

-Very good! Let's give him/her an angel


clap! Do you know the angel clap?
-Yes Teacher!
-So let's do the angel clap.

-When one half of a figure looks like the (pupils will look for the half of their
mirror image of the other half, it is figure)
symmetry.
(show the butterfly figure)
(will say the pairs won)
-And this is the line of symmetry that
divides a figure into two matching sides.
What do you call this line? (give their answer)

-Very good!
We call this line vertical symmetry when
it goes up and down. (answer the question)
(show examples)

-Will you give me some shapes with a


vertical symmetry?

-Excellent!
When the line of symmetry goes left to -Yes teacher!
right or right to left, it is called horizontal
symmetry. (will answer)

-What do you call when it goes from left


to right and right to left?

(ask examples)
(give their own meaning)
-Now, look at the classroom and give
other examples of symmetry and indicate
where/what is the line of symmetry. -Yes teacher!
Example is the board, the line of
symmetry can be vertical or horizontal. (will do the angel clap)

Since you can give examples of


symmetry, what now is symmetry?

-How about line of symmetry?

-Does symmetry important?

-Then, why it is important? -Line of Symmetry

-Yes! We must give importance of the


things around us.

-Do you understand our lesson?

-Let us have our group work again. You (pupils will give their examples)
will work again as a group, so what are
the important things that you will do?

-Very good!
(will give the activities for each group)

-Horizontal Symmetry.

(will give their examples)

(will define symmetry)


(will define line of symmetry)

-Yes teacher!

(give their opinion)

-Yes teacher!

-Share ideas and cooperate.

(each group will answer)

Activities:
Group 1. Tell if the pictures show line of symmetry. Write YES or NO

_______1. _______4.

_______2. _______5.

_______3.

Group 2. Draw the second half of each symmetrical figure.

1. 4.
2. 5.

3.

Group 3. Draw 5 figures that show line of symmetry.

Teacher’s Activity Learner’s Activity


-For each group, once you are done, do
the YES CLAP and post your answers on
the board, then go back to your respective
seats.

(check the answers)

-The group who will get the highest point


will receive a prize!

(after the activity)

-Since you experienced to work as a


group, now it’s time to work individually.
Get a pencil and you will have some
exercises.
(pupils will answer)
(check the answers) (explain the exercises
for each category)
(after the exercise)
(pupils will pass their copy)
-Pass forward! Then sideward from left to
right.
