DLP in Limits of Polynomial, Rational, and Radical Function
DLP in Limits of Polynomial, Rational, and Radical Function
I. Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
a. define limit of polynomial, rational, and radical function.
b. evaluate the limit of algebraic function (polynomial, rational, and radical);
c. give an example on limitation of polynomial, rational, and radical;
d. show interest on the lesson through active participation in class.
III. Procedure:
Teacher’s Activity Students’ Activity
A. Motivation:
Good day everyone! Today, I
prepared a games before we proceed
to the discussion of our lesson. First 5
pictures that I will show in screen is
you have to identify if the equation is
polynomial or not. In nearpod you
will have each board to write your
answer.
Then the remaining pictures you have
to solve it by using the laws of
exponent. The student who get a high
score will receive the prize. Is that
clear?
Yes ma’am

their own board in nearpod.)

Well done. Congratulations everyone and b2
the student who get a high points. Okay
class, do you have any idea what would
be our lesson for today?
Quadratic functions.
Very Good!
Cubic functions.
Polynomial functions.
Radical functions.
Rational functions.
C. Lesson Proper:
Let us talk about first the limits
polynomial function.
What is Polynomial function by the
way? A polynomial function is a function such as a
quadratic, a cubic, a quartic.

Let’s have some examples:
1. lim √ x

lim √ x +4
x →0
= lim √0+ 4
x →0

D. Generalization:
I will use wheel of names to call
someone and he/she will give an
example thenhe/she have to solve it
and show the solution by draw chat
application so that the class can see it.
After you get the answer, you have to
tell this by using a hugot lines. Is that
clear?
Yes ma’am.
IV. Application:
I will group you into six. I will show problems here in conference then answer it with
your nearpod board, each group have one representative to input the answer. Write
your final answer in your designated board in nearpod app. The first group who get first
the correct answer will get the point. I will monitor you and I can see the progress of
your work.
