Subtract decimal numbers through thousandths without and with regrouping
Thriftiness and orderliness

II. Subject Matter: Adding and Subtracting Decimal Numbers through Thousandths
Without and With Regrouping

Materials: flash cards, pictures, illustrations

References: K to 12 Curriculum Guide, LM Math Grade 5

III.Instructional Procedure:
A. Preliminary Activities
1. Drill (Traveling Game)

Mechanics:
a. Divide the class into 2 groups. One representative from each group stands at
the back of the classroom.
b. Flash the cards on addition and subtraction. The representative from each
group will compete to give the correct answer.
c. The first one who gives the correct answer will get the point.
d. The game continues until all the pupils from each group have participated.
e. The group with the most number of points wins.

2. Review
Add or subtract the following.

29 72 64 89 93

+16 -38 - 25 +56 -79

3. Motivation
Present items bought in a store with a given price.

P 6.75 P 15.50
P 25.25
Ask: Do you always have your things needed in school?
Ask: What should you do to the things that you used in school? Do you keep it
orderly and use as needed? Emphasize the value of being orderly and
thrifty to the resources/ things that we have.

B. Developmental Activities

1. Presentation
Charlie decided to go to the nearest church in the succeeding town by biking. He knew that it
was 7.529 km from his current location. For the first few minutes, he recorded that he had biked 2.097
km for the first 7 minutes and 3.618 km for the next 10 minutes. How far will he need to bike to reach
his destination?

Ask:
 How far is the church from Charlie’s current location?
 What is the total distance covered by Charlie for 17 minutes?
 How will you know the distance he still needs to cover to reach the church?

2. Performing the Activity

Ask the pupils to work in groups in solving the problem.

2.097 km Step 1:
+ 3.618 km Arranged the numbers vertically. Then add the numbers from
 5.715 km right to left. Put the decimal point on its corresponding place.

6 15
7.529 km Step 2:
- 5.715 km Arranged the numbers vertically. Subtract the numbers from
1.814 km right to left. Put the decimal point on its corresponding place.

3. Processing the Activities

After the group presented and checked their work, call on the leader to
relate what they have done to solve the problem.

Ask:
 How do we add decimals through thousandths with or without regrouping?
 Did you move the decimal point of the sum of decimals?
 How do you subtract decimals through thousandths with or without regrouping?
 Did you move the decimal point of the difference of decimals?

4. Reinforcing the Concept and Skill

Discuss the presentation under Explore and Discover of page 114, LM Math Grade 5. Then
give these exercises.

Arranged the decimals vertically and does the indicated operation.

1. 2.589 + 1.051 4. 16. 603 – 8.546

2. 3. 620 – 2.915 5. 20.12 + 8.621
3. 12. 958 + 9.834

Allow pupils to answer exercises A and B under Keep Moving, pages 115
and LM Math Grade 5. Check the pupils’ answer.

5. Summarizing the Lesson

Lead the pupils to generalize as follows:

In adding/subtracting decimals follow these steps:

 Arrange the numbers in column. Align the decimal points. Use 0 as

placeholder if needed.
 Add/subtract as you would add/subtract whole numbers from right to
left.
 Place a decimal point in the sum/ difference. Align this with the other
decimal points.

6. Applying to New and Other Situations

Let the pupils answer Exercise A under Apply Your Skills on page 115, LM
Math Grade 5. Check the pupils’ answer after the given period of time.

C. Assessment

A. Perform the indicated operation.

1. 16.00 2. 24. 63 3. 248. 79

+173.89
+ 78.136

B. Write in column and subtract.

1. Subtract 25.963 from 114.04.

2. Take away P 83.12 from P 200.00.
3. From 215, subtract 65.069.
4. P 69. 12 – P 35.85.
5. Subtract 2.523 from 5.094.
