Detailed Lesson Plan in Mathematics 1

I. LEARNING OBJECTIVES
At the end of the period, the learners are expected to:
Cognitive: Recognize ½ of a whole.
Psychomotor: Show one part of a whole.
Affective: Explain the importance of sharing one’s blessings.

II. SUBJECT MATTER

Topic: Recognizing ½ of a whole
Concepts:
a. A whole is an object that is complete in itself.
b. When an object is divided into 2 equal parts, each part is called one-half or ½ of the whole.
c. Half is one of the two equal parts.
d. Two halves make a whole or 2/2 is 1.
Reference: Mathematics in Action pp.189-192
BEC PELC II A.1.1
Materials: Visual Aids, Flashcards, Cutouts
Value: Sharing and Cooperation

III. PROCEDURE
Teacher’s Activity Pupil’s Activity
A. Routinary Activities
1.Opening Prayer
Let us all stand up, bow our heads and Pray.
“Angel of God, my guardian dear, “Angel of God, my guardian dear,
To whom God’s love commits me here, To whom God’s love commits me here,
Ever this day be at my side, Ever this day be at my side,
To light and guard, to rule and guide. Amen.” To light and guard, to rule and guide. Amen.”
2.Greetings
Good morning class!
3.Checking of Attendance Good morning Teacher!

B. Preparatory Activities
1. Drill/Review
Flashcards of different shapes
Group Game (Each group will name as many
objects as they can with the given shape.)
Group 1 – circle Group 3 – square
Group 2 – rectangle Group 4 – triangle
The group with the most number of correct
names wins.
2. Motivation
The teacher will show a picture to draw their
attention to the value of sharing.

What do you see in the picture? A girl and a boy sharing food.
Valuing:
 Who among you is like the girl who shares her Me Teacher!
“baon’ to others?
 Who among you gives paper to your classmate?
 What do you feel when sharing what you have
to others? When I share something to my classmate, I feel
happy Teacher.
Note that the girl is giving half of her sandwich to the
boy.

C. LESSON PROPER
1. Presentation
The teacher will show a square and ask: How will I
divide this square if I want to have two equal
parts?(Fold it into 2 equal parts as the children Fold it into two equal parts.
observe)

How many equal parts are there?(Touch each part Two(2) teacher
as the children count)
2. Discussion
Teacher explain that each part is 1 of 2 equal parts
or one half of the square.

The symbol, “-“ tells us that the whole shape was

divided into equal parts. The “2” below the line
tells us that there are 2 equal parts. The “1” above
the line tells us that we are talking about 1 of the
2 equal parts.

Let’s have an example.

I have here an apple. Let us divide the apple into
two.

In how many parts are we going to cut the apple?

(The teacher will cut the apple into two)
We will cut the apple into two halves.
I have here one part of the apple, how are we
going to name it? One-half.

How are we going to write one-half? ½

That’s great!

The teacher will show again another example.

 I have here one whole banana. Let us divide the Yes ma’am
banana into two. Can you help teacher to divide
it?

How many 1/2’s make a whole? One-half and one-half or two halves make a whole.

What conclusion can we get from this? We can say that 2 halves make a whole.

How do we write it? 2/2 or 1

3. Fixing Skills

Check the following figures that show ½ of a

whole.

D. Generalization

What do we call a part of a whole that was cut into One part is called one-half of the whole.
two?

How do we write a whole cut into two? 2/2

How do we write one-half? ½

E. Valuing
What is the importance of sharing our blessings? Answers vary.
 F. Application
Give the pupils papers to cut. Let them cut different
shapes, fold them into 2 equal parts and paste one
part. The teacher will let them describe their work.

IV. EVALUATION
Encircle the figure whose shaded parts show ½.
V. AGREEMENT
Draw the following figures. Divide them into 2 equal parts. Shade ½ of each.

1. Circle
2. Triangle
3. Rectangle
4. Square
5. Oblong
