2. Presentation
Teachers Activity Pupils Activity
There are many kinds of plane figures.
1.

How many parallel sides are there?

There are two parallel sides.
Correct
How many sides are there? Four sides
Correct, it is a quadrilateral having only
two parallel sides called trapezoid.
2.

How many sides are there? Four sides

Right, a quadrilateral with opposite sides
parallel and equal is called parallelogram.
3.

There is no right angle on that figure.

How many right angles are there?
Okay, it is a parallelogram with four equal
sides and no right angles called rhombus.
4.

How many right angles are there? There are four right angles on that
Thats right, rectangle is a parallelogram in rectangle.
which all angles are right angles.
5.

How many equal sides are there? There are four equal sides in a square.
Correct, square have four equal sides.
 6. Polygons are closed plane figures
bounded by straight lines.
a.

How many sides are there? Triangle has three sides.

Correct, triangle is a polygon having three
sides.
b.

How many sides are there? There are five sides in the pentagon.
Right, pentagon is a polygon having five
sides.
c.

How many sides are there? There are six sides on that figure and that
Correct, hexagon is a polygon having six is hexagon.
sides.
d.

How many sides are there? There are eight sides on that figure and
that is octagon.
Octagon is a polygon having eight sides.
7.

What shape is this? Circle

Circle is a closed plane curve every point
of which is of the same distance from a
fixed point within the curve.
8.

What shape is this? Oblong

Oblong is a plane deviating from a
square, circular or spherical form by
elongation in one dimension.

Teachers Activity Pupils Activity

Write the shape and the word that 1. Pentagon DRUGS
you can make by connecting the 2. Trapezoid SAFE
letters to make that shape. 3. Parallelogram STAY
4. Parallelogram STAY
5. Rectangle AWAY
6. Square - FROM

Arrange the words following the

sequence of these shapes to form the
slogan. STAY SAFE STAY AWAY FROM DRUGS
Parallelogram Trapezoid
Parallelogram Rectangle
Square Pentagon

Are you doing these? Yes

Who can explain the slogan? If we want to be safe we need to stay away
from illegal drugs to have bright future and
for us to be safe.
 What will happen to us if we use
illegal drugs such as marijuana and
shabu?
Do you want to be an addict or an
idiot? Why?
So, if you want to be a professional
someday, if you want to land a job so
you need to bear in mind that illegal
drugs can harm your bodies and ruin
your life.
4. Generalization
Teachers Activity
What were the different kinds of plane
figures that we discussed?
5. Application
Teachers Activity
1. Draw a quadrilateral with only
two parallel sides.
2. Draw a quadrilateral with
opposite sides parallel and equal.
3. Draw a parallelogram with four
equal sides and no right angles.
We will become an addict and idiot.
No, because I want to finish my study. I
want to be a professional someday.
Pupils Activity
The different kinds of plane figures are the
following:
a. Trapezoids- two parallel sides
b. Parallelogram- with opposite sides
parallel and equal
c. Rhombus- with four equal sides and
no right angles
d. Rectangle- a parallelogram with right
angles
e. Square- with all four equal sides
f. Polygons- closed plane figures
1. Triangle- with three sides
2. Pentagon- with five sides
3. Hexagon- have six sides
4. Octagon- have eight sides
5. Circle- closed plane curve
6. Oblong- a plane deviating from a
square, circular or spherical form
