(Teacher will call pupils to fill the charts)
numbers.)

Give 5 claps

3. Motivation
(The teacher will show a chart of two blocks)

What do you call to this figure? It is blocks

Very good! Teacher the first block has a little shaded

What can you say about the two given figures? square, while the other one has a more
shaded square.

How did you know that the 1st figure is small than Teacher, we compare the two figures
the 2nd figure?

Very Good!

Today, we are going to discuss about comparing

decimals. Yes ma’am!

Do you understand?
Very Good!

B. Developmental Activities
1. Presentation
The teacher will let the pupils to watch a video
clip about swimming competition

(Pupils watch the video presentation)

Discussion
After viewing, ask the following questions to the
pupils.
Teacher, it is all about swimming
1. What is the video presentation all about? competition

Class, what is the basis of the said Teacher through determining the time
competition? How can we know that player speed and the smallest time-elapsed
won? compared to their opponent.

Teacher, it is USA

Who wins the competition?

Very Good!

USA win the competition because he is the one

who got the smallest time-elapsed record
compared to his opponent.

Ok class in comparing decimals number, we

can use comparison symbols to compare the
given quantities.

(Post visual aid about comparison symbols)

< is less than symbol

- It shows that what’s on its left is smaller

than what’s on its right.

> is greater symbol. It’s the opposite of the less

than symbol.

- It shows that what’s on its left is larger than

what’s on its right.

(=) equal is used when two things are equal.

Also, we can use the types of Order to compare

the decimal numbers

Ascending – from smallest to greatest number

Descending – from greatest to smallest

number.
 Ex. 2.085___3.145 Teacher, the smaller decimal number is at
the left side.
Class, which side is smaller decimal number?

Very Good! Teacher, the larger decimal number is at

the right side.
How about the larger decimal number?

Very Good!

Class, what symbol we can use to compare the
two given quantities?

Very Good! Yes, Teacher
