GRADE 11 School SIGNAL VILLAGE NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL Duration 2 HOURS PER DAY

DAILY LESSON Teacher MR. JOSE REU A. RAMOS Learning Area STATISTICS & PROBABILITY
PLAN Teaching Dates February 13-17, 2023 Quarter THIRD

DAY 2:

I. Objectives: At the end of the lesson, the students must be able to:

A. Illustrate a probability distribution for a discrete random variable and its properties.
B. Compute probabilities corresponding to a given random variable.
C. Construct the probability mass function of a discrete random variable and its
corresponding histogram.

II. Subject Matter:

A. Topic: Constructing Probability Distributions.
B. References: Statistics and Probability Book by Belecina, Baccay, & Mateo, Pages 9-
20.
C. Materials: Laptop, Projector, Colored chalks, Whiteboard marker.

III. Procedure:
A. Preparation
 Checking the cleanliness of classroom, orderliness, and attendance.
 Prayer
 Greetings

B. Review
 What do you mean by sample space?
 How do you describe a discrete or continuous random variable?
 Give three examples of discrete and continuous random variables.

C. Motivation:
 Explain the significance of random variables and probability distribution.

“Decision-making is an important aspect in business, education, insurance, and other real-

life situations. Many decisions are made by assigning probabilities to all possible outcomes
pertaining to the situation and then evaluating the results. For instance, an insurance
company might be able to assign probabilities to the number of vehicles a family owns. This
information will help the company in making decisions regarding future financial situations.
This situation requires the use of random variables and probability distributions.”

D. Presentation & Development of the lesson:

 Give the students a preliminary activity with regard to their prior knowledge in
getting the probability of an event.
 Explain the definition of discrete probability distribution and its properties.
 Provide example problems to solve.
  Present some illustrative examples.

E. Analysis
 Why should the sum of the probabilities in a probability distribution always
equal to 1?
 What is the shape of most probability distribution? Why do you think so?

F. Activity:
 Ask the students to answer the exercises on pages 16-20.

G. Application:
 The daily demand for copies of a movie magazine at a variety store has the
probability distribution.
a.) What is the probability that three or more copies will be demanded in
a particular day?
b.) What is the probability that the demand will be at least two but not
more than six?

H. Abstraction:
 A discrete probability distribution or a probability mass function consists of the
values a random variable can assume and the corresponding probabilities of the
values.
 To construct a histogram for a probability distribution, plot the values of the
random variable along the horizontal axis then plot the probabilities along the
vertical axis.
 The properties of a probability distribution are:
a.) The probability of each value of the random variable must be
between or equal to 0 and 1. In symbol, we write it as 0 ≤ P(X) ≤ 1.
b.) The sum of the probabilities of all values of the random variable
must be equal to 1. In symbol, we write it as ƐP(X)=1.

I. Evaluation:
 Construct the probability distribution for the random variables described in the
situation. Draw the corresponding histogram for the probability distribution.
Situation:
. Five coins are tossed. Let Z be the random variable representing the number of
heads that occur. Find the values of the random variable Z.

IV. Agreement:
 Study in advance on how to compute the mean of discrete probability
distributions?
V. Reflection:
A. No. of learners who earned 80% in the evaluation
- Most students have earned more than 80% in the evaluation.
B. No. of learners who require additional activities for remediation who scored below 80%
- None
C. Did the remedial lessons work? No. of learners who have caught up with the lesson.
- n/a
D. No. of learners who continue to require remediation.
- None
E. Which of my teaching strategies work well? Why did these work?
- Active learning. It allows student to talk and listen, read, write, and reflect as they
approach course content through problem solving exercises.
F. What difficulties did I encounter which my principal or supervisor can help me solve?
- None
G. What innovation or localized materials did I use/discover which I wish to share with
other teachers?
- Interactive power point presentation.
