PROCEDURES Activity
INTRODUCTION Good morning class!! How are you today? Good morning,
Sir. We are
I’m glad to hear you that. fine. Thank
you.
Please remember always to wear your facemask and observe social
distancing to protect ourselves against the COVID-19. Do not forget
to use alcohol after we touch something.
Is it clear class?
Very well! (Indicator 4) Yes Teacher!

Are you excited for our new lesson this morning? Yes Teacher!
Good!

Before we start, there are flags on your desk. Can you raise your
flags?
Ok, put it down.
If you want to ask some question, you may raise the blue flag.
If you want to answer a question, you may raise the white flag.
I have also a flag here for myself. The green flag will tell you to go
or to start in your individual and group activity.
The red flag will tell you to stop if the time is up in our activity. And
these tells you also to behave or keep quite if we are too noisy.
(Indicator 3) Yes Teacher!
Is it clear, class?

Class, I encourage you to attain the class attentively. Every time

you answer the questions correctly, your group will receive a point.
At the end of the class, the group that receives many points will
have a surprise reward later.
 Are you excited? Yes we are!
Good!

Now, before we start let us not forget to pray. Stand up everybody

and bow down your heads.

Motivation
Dino is a Grade 4 pupil in Isaias S. Tapales Elementary School. His
teacher in EPP-ICT 4 gave an assignment to search in the internet
the map of their school. He captures the map using the snipping tool
and edited it by using the MS Paint. Dino notice that most of each
side of the building’s roof are shape like parallelogram. (Indicator 1)
He remembered that parallelogram was discussed in their
mathematics class. He wonders, what is the area of each side of the
roof of the building? (See picture in the PPT)
Yes Teacher!
Can we help Dino to find the area of each parallelogram?

Class, do you know how to use the snipping tool in the computer?
Do you know how to edit and crop pictures in MS Paint? JPEG – Joint
What are the file formats in saving a picture? Photographic

Very good!
To get the area of a parallelogram, count the number of squares
inside the plane. Or just count number of squares in the length and
width then multiply it.

The length of a parallelogram is what we called as base, and the

width is height.
Yes Teacher!
Are you ready?
 Expected
I will call a representative in each group to answer on the board. answer:
Each time you get a correct answer, your group will receive a point. 1. 36m2

What operation did we use to find the area of a parallelogram? Multiplication.

What do we call the length of a parallelogram? Base.
How about the width of a parallelogram? Height.

Thus, finding the area of a parallelogram is the same in finding the Yes. (Answer
area of a rectangle? Why? vary)

Okay, Let’s find out more!

What’s In
Activity 2
Class let’s have a group activity.
(Group pupils into 5 groups according to set plan)

You can work in your set only to avoid physical contact.

I have here a brown envelope containing of materials and
instructions to work with.
ENGAGEMENT Let us do our work efficiently by helping each other.
Your group will be graded in rubrics posted on the board.

Remember, at the end of the period the group with the highest
score will received a prize.
If you have question just raise your white flag.
I will give you three (3) minutes to do your work.
And post your outputs in the board for presentation. Yes Teacher!
Are you ready?

Activities:
 By counting the number of squares (Group 1 and 3)
Directions:
- Cut the height of a parallelogram and paste it to the other side to
form into a rectangle.
 - Count the squares inside the plane. Paste your work in a manila
paper and write your answer neat and clear.

Stars
Okay class let us check your answer. Let’s post it one group at a
time to maintain the social distancing. Please explain you answer. Maranao,
Bagobo,
Class, did you notice the arts inside the parallelogram of group 5? Tagbanua,
What are those ethnic designs found inside the parallelogram? Agta
What are ethnic group representing in each design?

Very good!
You studied well in your MAPEH Art class.

Processing:
Now, let’s go back to your outputs.

How did you find the answer?

How were you able to find the area of the figure assigned to your
group?
In how many ways were you able to find the area?

Now let’s derive the formula of a parallelogram. A rectangle

If we are going to cut the height of a parallelogram it will form into a

right triangle. Then were going to move the right triangle and align it
to the other side of the parallelogram.
What plane figure does it formed?

The area of the

rectangle is A=
Length x Width.
Again, what is the area of a rectangle?

Now let us go back to my question earlier.

“Thus, finding the area of a parallelogram is the same in finding the
area of a rectangle?”

The area parallelogram is the same with the area of a rectangle.

The length is equal to base and the width is equal to height.
 Therefore, the formula of a parallelogram is A = Base x Height or
A=b(h)
The same with the are of a rectangle, A=l(w). A = base x
The product will always be written into square units (e.g.: cm 2, m2, height
…) A=b(h)

What is the formula to find the area of a parallelogram? Expected

answer:
1. 72 cm2
What’s More 2. 432 cm2

ASSIMILATION What I Have Learned

Okay class let’s summed it up!
What do we call the length of a parallelogram?
What how about the width of a parallelogram?
What is the operation to find the area of a parallelogram?
What is the formula to find the area of a parallelogram? Expected
answer:
a. b= 6m, c=3m
 The area of a parallelogram ca be completed using the
b. multiplication
formula Are of a parallelogram = base x height
c. A=b(h)
 If A is the area of a parallelogram, b is its base, and h is its
d. 18m2
height, then A = b x h and is expressed in terms of square
units.
