Teacher’s Activity Students’ Activity

A. Routinary Activities

Good morning, class! Good morning, Ma’am.

Okay, let us pray. Our Father ... Amen.

Before you take your seats, kindly pick (arrange chairs and pick up pieces of
up any pieces of paper or trashes. paper)
Then, please arrange your chairs
properly.

You may now take your seats. (take seats)

Class, who are absent for today? No one, Ma’am

Very good! It is nice to know that you

really love my subject, Mathematics. (clap hands)
So, let’s give everybody a round of
applause.

Now, we will have another interesting

topic for today. But, before that, let’s (raise hands)
play a game. Raise your hand if you
want games.

B. Preparation

1. Motivation

Let’s play 4-Pics-1-Word. Are you

familiar with that? Yes, Ma’am.

But, we will have this game a twist.

Instead of giving letters as hints, you (choosing of representatives)
will act the word being guessed. I will
divide the class into groups. The left
side is Group 1 and the right side is
Group 2. Then, both groups will choose
a representative to act the given
picture. The rest members of the group
will guess the word. The pictures to be
guessed have numbers and the
representative will pick by lot. I will only
give two minutes each group. The more
words to guess, the more you win. So,
choose your representatives.

Now, let’s begin with Group 1. (holds

the picture being chosen by the (starting guessing)
representative)

(after two minutes) Time’s up. Good

job, Group 1. Next is Group 2. (starting guessing)

Two minutes passed. Thanks, Group 1.

The winner is __________. A round of (clapping hands)
applause to everyone for a wonderful
game.

Class, what are the words being

guessed? (read the words)

C. Presentation

So, what have you observed on those

words in our game.
Yes, those are operations. But, it will
have something to do with our new
topic for this morning.
The words are related to operations
because of the add, divide, subtract
and multiply.
Today, you will learn how to compute
numbers with signs, the positive and
negative in operations. And we will
encounter integers.

We will be having an activity. I will

divide the class into four groups. This (working together as groups)
will be row groups. Each group will be
given flash cards with number
problems and corresponding letters.
Then, you will solve it as a group. After
you solve, the answers of the flash
cards must be arranged into lowest to
highest value so that you can get the
hidden word. But, how you will solve
the number problem? I will give you an
“Ace” card. This is a card containing
the rules on solving. The first group to
finish and accomplish the task will be
the winner and there will be a
corresponding prize for it.

D. Comparison and Abstraction

Among the cards, what operations are

used? Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication,
Division.
Very good! These operations will help
to solve the numbers with signs.

These signs are?

Positive and Negative sign
If a number has a negative sign, what
does it imply?
It is below zero.

That’s right. If a number has no sign,

that is a positive number. What does it It is above zero.
mean?

How did you get the answers on doing

the activity? There are rules in solving operations on
integers.

E. Generalization

These are called integers. It is a

positive and negative whole number or
it’s exact opposites.

So, these integers can be applied on

operations. There are rules on getting
the answers.
First is in addition. What would be the
result if a positive integer is being The answer is a positive integer.
added to a positive integer.

If a negative integer is added with a

negative integer? The answer is a negative integer.

That’s right! The sign will stay as it is.

What would be the answer if a positive The answer will depend on the bigger
integer is being added to a negative integer.
integer?

In subtraction, this rule is the same with

addition. In multiplication and division, The answer is still positive.
they also have the same rules. If both
positive is being multiplied and divided,
the answer is?

If the factors have different signs?

If the dividend and divisor have The answer is a negative integer.
different signs?

(posts some examples)

Then, this integers won’t be nothing if

this is not applicable to reality. Have
you notice about thermometers? There
is a negative integer because there are
temperatures which are below 0°. It is
the decrease of temperature. Then,
when you deposit a money in your
bank account. Your savings will rise.
There will be positive money on a bank.
Integers really help in keeping the
world on working.

F. Application

In your seats, make at least 5

examples which can be applicable in
real life situations. Then, exchange with
your seatmate. Let your seatmate
answer it.

I will give you 10 minutes to do your Yes, Ma’am.

task.

(after 10 minutes)
Give back the paper then let the maker
of the examples check the answers of
his/her seatmate. Then, after checking,
pass the papers to me.
