may now sit down.

3. Greeting
Good morning once again. So, before anything else, how’s It’s great Ma’am!
your day class?

Great! It’s good to hear that.

‘’Jay ba tagsakitan tijan? Or bas jauy yapay mamahaw (Students are entertained)
dre,’’ I have here some chocolates but you’ll have to solve
first a problem.

No, I was just kidding.

But seriously, are you all good? Yes ma’am

4. Attendance Checking
Who’s absent today? All are present ma’am

Very good!

1. Recall
Before we begin the lesson, may I ask (name of the Yesterday, we discussed about
student) to give us a short recapitulation about our lesson Algebraic Expression, identifying
yesterday? the number of terms and the
number of degree in the given
expression.

Very good!

Okay, so, last meeting we discussed about Algebraic

Expression, identifying the number of terms and the
number of degree. Also, we’ve been able to identify the
different kinds of polynomials according to the number of
terms and the number of degree.

So again, what are the different kinds of polynomials Monomials, Binomials, Trinomials,
according to the number of terms? and Multinomials.

Very good!

How about the different kinds of polynomials according to Constant, Linear, Quadratic,
the number of degree? Quartic, and Quintic.

Excellent class!

2. Motivation
Okay, who wants some prizes? (The class raise their hands)

(The class will group themselves

into 5 groups.)

Seems like everybody really wants prizes. I’ll make sure

you’ll have those, then. But first, let’s count 1 to 5 and you
will be grouped into 5 groups coz we will have a game.
(The class proceed to their

a yell. So, I will be able to identify that group and they will
be given 10 points.

Each group must choose 1 representative to report their

answers and 1 representative who will be the leader of the
group.

This game is what I called as ‘’Fixed me, I’m broken’’.

Given the values of the variables, all you have to do is to

find the value of the Algebraic Expression from column A
and match it to column B.

You’ll have to paste these pieces of cards on column B

which I wrote the corresponding values of each expression
from column A.
Yes, ma’am.
Is it loud and clear?

Great! So now, let’s start the game!

Group Activity 1:
Direction: Match Column A with Column B. Given the
values of variables, if a=2, b=1, c=4.

5. 3𝑎𝑐 e.

Great job to the group who’ve won the game! You may
claim your prices here.

C. Activity (Student raise their hands)

So, from our activity, who could guess our topic for today?
I think, we will be tackling about
Yes, (name of the student). evaluating algebraic expression.

That’s correct! Very good (name of the student)

Since our last topic was all about algebraic expression,

now let’s jump on evaluating it, from the given values of
each variable.

But first, let us all read our learning objectives.

Learning Objectives:

At the end of the lesson, you should will be able to:

a. Familiarize the steps in evaluating algebraic

expressions.

b. Evaluate algebraic expression.

c. Engage student in cooperative ad

collaborative learning environment.

d. Make inferences about the lesson in real life

using the numerical value of an algebraic
expression.

Yes ma’am
From our activity, does it already give you a knowledge on
our topic?

It’s great then!

(The class group themselves into 6

Now, I’d like you to form another group and we will have
groups).
another group activity.

I know that you are all familiar in the game, ‘’Message

relay’’, but this time the algebraic expression will be the
message to be relayed. And one member of the group will
evaluate the given values of the variables.

Yes ma’am
Is it clear?

Let’s start the game!

Group Activity 2:
Find the value of each expression.
1. If a=3, then 3a=___

Let’s give a nice clap to the group who’ve won the game. Nice, Nice.

D. Analysis
Guide Question: It was exciting and nerves breaking.
1. How did you feel about our activity?
Simple as evaluating the algebraic
2. How did you find the activity? expression.

My favorite part of the activity was

3. What was your favorite part in the activity? on substituting the given value of
the variable.

My best strategy was to analyze

4. What was your best strategy to finish the first the given expression before
activity? you proceed on evaluating the
algebraic expression.

The first thing that we should do is

5. What are the steps in evaluating algebraic to analyze what is given. Then,
expression? proceed to substituting the given
values of the variables. Afterwards,
perform the operations. Then you’ll
get the answer.

We can also apply this on real life

6. Where can we apply the lesson on evaluating scenarios. Let’s take an apple
algebraic expression? which cost 15 pesos and banana
that cost 25 per kilo. Then, your
mother asks you to buy 5 apples
and 3kls. of bananas. Through
evaluating algebraic expression, we
can be able to find how much will it
cost in all?

E. Abstraction
Finally, we are now down to our proper discussion. By the
way, you all did great in our activity!

To evaluate an algebraic expression means to substitute

the given value of the variables. Then, simplify the resulting
numerical expression following the PEMDAS (Parenthesis,
Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction).

Let’s take a look on the video presentation that I’ll be going

to present to you which shows an example of evaluating
algebraic expression. And observe how they arrive with the
correct answer.

Okay, what was the mentioned steps in evaluating

algebraic expression based on the video presentation?

Now, let’s have another example.

Example: Evaluate 𝑥 2 + 3𝑥 − 2; 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑥 = 2

North Eastern Mindanao State University
Formerly Surigao del Sur State University
Cantilan Campus
Cantilan,Surigao del Sur
Telefax No. 086-212-5132
Website: www.sdssu.edu.ph

Solution:
𝑥 2 + 3𝑥 − 2 = 22 + 3(2) − 2 Substitute the value of x
= 4 + 3(2) − 2 Simplify the expression
=4+6–2 Perform the multiplication
=8 Perform the operation (+,-)

Okay, so, let’s try and evaluate the following algebraic

expression:
Oral Activity 1:
If a=3, b=2, c=4, then:
1. -5a + 7b+4c
2. 40ab – 9b + c
3. 6𝑎2 + 3𝑏 − 8
The sum is equal to 15 ma’am.
Who will volunteer to answer number 1?
It is equal to 226 ma’am.
How about for number 2?
It is equal to 50 ma’am.
Who would like to answer number 3?

Okay, so now, let’s check your answers.

Excellent class!
G-O-O-D, G-O-O-D, Good, Good,
Let’s give a good clap to everyone. Good, Good, Good.

Everyone got the correct answer. It seems like this topic is

just a “small chicken” to you, class.

F. Application None so far, ma’am.

Do you have any question class?

Since, I haven’t heard any more questions. Let’s now go

back to our learning objectives, if you would be able to:
a. Familiarize the steps in evaluating algebraic
expressions.

b. Evaluate algebraic expression.

c. Engage student in a cooperative ad

collaborative learning environment.

d. Make inferences about the lesson in real life

using the numerical value of an algebraic
expression.

I guess this had all been discussed clearly since I’ve

observed that almost all of you got the perfect score on our
group and oral activity.
So now, to truly understand and appreciate the importance
of evaluating algebraic expression on real life scenarios.
We will have a problem solving. Get 1 half crosswise and
answer the following word problems.

Problem Solving
Direction: Analyze the given word problem and evaluate
the algebraic expression given the values of variables.
1. School canteen sells sandwich which cost 15 pesos
each and mango float cost 20 pesos.

North Eastern Mindanao State University
Formerly Surigao del Sur State University
Cantilan Campus
Cantilan,Surigao del Sur
Telefax No. 086-212-5132
Website: www.sdssu.edu.ph

How much will it cost if you would like to buy 3

sandwiches and 2 mango floats?
Answer:
Given:
x = 3 sandwiches x refers to the number of sandwiches
y = 2 mango floats y refers to the no. of mango floats
Solution:
15 pesos (3 sandwiches) + 20 pesos (2 mango floats)
= 45 + 40
= 85 pesos

2. In your MAPEH subject, you are task to make a

scrapbook. You will be needing atleast 16 assorted
neon papers and 20 long bond papers in the
making.
How much will be paid if neon papers cost 3 pesos
for 2 of them and each long bond paper cost 1 peso
and seventy-five centavos?
Answer:
Given:
x = 3 pesos per 2 neon x refers to the cost of neon paper
y = 1.75 pesos y refers to the cost of each bond paper
Solution:
16 neon (3 per 2 neon) + 20 bond paper (1.75 pesos)
= 16 (3/2) + 20 (1.75)
= 48/2 + 35
= 24 + 35
= 59 pesos
