III. Procedure

Teachers’ Activity Students’ Activity

A. Preliminary Activities

1. Motivation
(Let the students to sing the
Mathematics song.)
Okay Isaiah please lead the song.
2. Drill
The teacher must use the chart.

4x3 3x6 12 18

3x7 4x5 21 20

4x2 2x9 8 18

5x3 7x4 15 28

6x 4 8x2 24 16

9x 3 1x7 27 7

3. Review A Quadrilateral is a polygon with four

Okay children, what is a quadrilateral? sides and four angles.

What are the kinds of Quadrilateral? The kinds of Quadrilateral are

Parallelogram, Rhombus, Square,
Rectangle and Trapezoid.

B. Developmental Activities

a. Activity A vegetable garden has the shape of a

Select one student to read the problem. Parallelogram. It has a base of 6 meters and a
height of 3 meters. What is the area of the
garden?

1. What is the shape of a vegetable

garden? - The shape of a vegetable garden is
Parallelogram.

2. What is the measurement of its base?

- The base is 6 meters.

3. How long is its height?

- The height is 3 meters.

4. What is asked in the problem?

-It is about the area of a garden.
Okay, children because we are going to find
the area of a parallelogram, please look at
the board and observe. We will use the data
in the problem.

How much is the measurement of the

base? base = 6m

How much is the measurement of the

height? height = 3m

What do A stands for?

A=b x h A stands for Area
A= 6m x 3m
A= 18m²
 b. Analysis

Another Examples:

7m

A=bxh
4m A = 7m x 4m
A = 28m²

5m
A=bxh
4m A = 5m x 4m
A = 20m²

A=bxh
6m A = 3m x 6m
A = 18m²

3m

c. Abstraction

So, again what is the formula in finding The formula in finding the area of
the area of a Parallelogram? Parallelogram is A=b x h -

Through our exercises, how do we find the To find the area of a Parallelogram, we
area of a Parallelogram? multiply the base and the height and express
in terms of square units.
.

d. Application
- OK children, I will divide you into
four (4) groups. Each group will have a
parallelogram plot.

Group 1
A plot A is a parallelogram shape. It is
covered with tomato plants. What is the
area of a parallelogram shape of the plot?

50cm
A=bxh
A = 60cm x 50cm
60cm A = 3000cm²

Group 2
A plot B is a parallelogram shape. It is
covered with an eggplant. What is the area
of a parallelogram shape of the plot?

30cm
A=bxh
A = 70cm x 30cm
70cm A = 2100cm²

Group 3
A plot C is a parallelogram shape. It is
covered with radish plants. What is the area
of a parallelogram shape of the plot?

30cm

A=bxh
A = 90cm x 30m
90cm A = 2700cm²

Group 4
- A plot D is a parallelogram shape. It is
covered with okra plants. What is the area
of a parallelogram shape of the plot?
 A=bxh
A = 60cm x 20cm
A = 1200cm²
20cm

60cm

Very Good! So children the tomato, They are the kinds of vegetables.
eggplant, radish, and okra are the kinds of?

vegetables?

When do we need to eat vegetables? We do eat vegetables every day.

What lifestyle do we practice if we eat If we eat vegetables every day, we are

vegetables every day? practicing a healthy lifestyle.

IV. Evaluation
Find the area of the Parallelogram using the following data. Choose the letter of
1
the correct answer and write it in your sheet of pad paper.
2

8m a. A= 16m ²
1. b. A= 18 m²
c. A = 24 m²
2m d. A=20 m²
 5m
2. a. A = 17m²
b. A = 12m²
3m c. A = 15m²
d.A=14 m²

3. a. A = 22m²
b. A = 18m²
2m c. A = 16 m²
d.A=24 m²
