LESSON PLAN IN MATHEMATICS 10

June 09, 2022

Competency: solves problems involving permutations and combinations (M10SP - IIId - e – 1)

I. OBJECTIVES:
At the end of the lesson the students should be able to:

a. differentiate Combinations from Permutations counting techniques.

b. solve and analyze problems with integration of probability and the counting
techniques.
c. develop the awareness of its use in our everyday life.

II. SUBJECT MATTER:

III. PROCEDURE
A. Preparation
 Prayer
 Greetings
 Classroom management
 Checking of attendance

B. Drill/Review
MATH MAGIC
A deck of playing cards will be shown in the class. The class will be asked to pick any card
they want and is to be predicted by drawing one card out of the deck. Two groups of
cards of fives of different suits will be shown in class. It will be shuffled, and the class will
be shown how Math predicts the pairs of the cards. Another 5 pairs of cards will be
separated from the deck of card and will be shuffled. As the magic proceeds, Math will
separate the suits of the same color from the different.

C. Motivation
 Group Activity (Wheel of your Fortune Today)
Mechanics:
1. Individuals will be called as volunteers to spin the wheel.
2. As it stops to one spot, he/she could either win a prize or do a consequence.
3. The individual will choose two out of the 5 things in the prize box.
4. The individual will pick two (1st and 2nd) out of the n people in the consequence
box.
5. The individual will pick two out of the 5 tasks and do it.
6. If it stops to the sign, “pick another individual to spin me”, they will not do
anything.
Motive Questions:
1. How was the game?
2. Did you have a chance to play the game and get the prize?
3. What are the possible prizes that you could get?
4. What combination of prizes did you choose? 
5. If it stopped at the laughing face, what were the possible questions to answer?
6. How about the possible consequences that you must do?
7. Who were the people you chose as 1st and 2nd and who re the other people that you
might have chosen?
8. What were the tasks you chose, and the other possible tasks you might have chosen?
9. What could be the numbers of the possible combinations to choose from the prizes/
tasks/ people?
10. So from the activity we had, who can guess the lesson for the day?

D. Presentation
 Combination  is an arrangement where order does not matter.

n!
nCr=
r ! ( n−r ) !

 where n - is the number of things to choose from

 and we choose r of them
 no repetition, order doesn’t matter
 Note: combinations are good for groups, teams, piles, or anything that 
doesn’t matter what order they are placed into those groups

EXAMPLE 1:
 
We had the game “Wheel of your Fortune Today” wherein you have the chance
to win prizes. If it stops on the happy face, you can get two out of 5 candies in the
prize box. What are the different candy prizes you can get from the box?
  Permutation  is an arrangement where order does matter.

n!
nPr=
( n−r ) !
 where n is the number of things to choose from,
 and we choose r of them
 no repetition, order does matter
 Note: Permutations are good for ordered lists, competition results where
it matters what order is selected as 1st, 2nd or third.
Example 2:
Since it stopped on the laughing face. You must answer the question by choosing the
1 and the 2nd noisiest person among Rhadca, Gillian, Lea, Paul, Joice, and Ramon. What are
st

the different pairs of top 2 noisiest people in the class?

E. Application (Activity)
 There will be two groups with different tasks as follows:
Group 1: The group wants to take a selfie together but only by 4 persons at a time. How
many ways can they take the picture together?
Group 2: The group wants to join a “Pahabaan ng pag - Aaaaaaah” competition but only
the top three will receive a pad of yellow paper and ballpens. How many possible orders
of top three are there for the competition?

F. Generalization

Guide Questions:

1. How will you identify that a certain question needs combination formula
as its solution?
2. How about permutation?
3. How will you differentiate permutation from combination?

IV. EVALUATION
I.
1. Almar is throwing a blowout Sem-ender party. He has 24 3rd year students, but only 5 can fit
with him in his car. How many different entourages could Almar arrive with?
2. There are 12 snails in a snail show competition. The top three winning snails receive money.
How many possible money winning orders are there for a competition with 12 snails?
II.
Answer Assessment in your module 3.

V. ASSIGNMENT
Advance study about permutation with repetition and combination with repetition.
