A. Introduction 1 DAY Hello! In this lesson, we will study and learn about geometrical concepts and
Panimula describe the things around us. We will visualize and describe illustrations of
different figures and discover the geometry in some objects. Furthermore, we
will also discuss the concepts of different solid figures and its common
characteristics

A boy was asked to clean his bedroom and found the following objects. From
the items he found, let us classify the following objects based on its
geometrical features.

Let us identify the objects inside the boy’s room.

The boy found a bed, a toy traffic cone, dice, a soccer ball, a coin bank and
a figurine.
B. Development 2 days What shapes can you see from these objects?
Pagpapaunlad We can see rectangles from the picture of the bed, triangles from the toy
traffic cone and figurine. The ball is shaped like a circle while the coin bank
has 2 circles for its bases. The dice is represented by a square.
Note that rectangles, squares, circles and triangles are plane figures

The picture above are examples of real solid figures.

Let us differentiate plane figures and solid figures. Observe these examples
below:

Observe that pictures from the left side are flat. These figures have no
thickness. These are called two-dimensional shapes or plane figures because
it only has the length and the width. It can be composed of a straight line,
curved line, or both straight and curved lines.
The pictures on the right side are figures which do not line flat on a plane.
Space figures are often referred to as solids. These solid figures have three
dimensions: length, width and height or thickness. The flat surfaces of a solid
figure are its faces. Remember that solid figures have polygons as faces.
The base is the face on which the figure rests. The edge of a solid figure is the
line segment where two faces meet. A vertex (plural: vertices) is the corner
that is formed where the ends of the line segments of two or more faces
meet. Specifically, you can observe the numbers
of faces, edges, and vertices, as well as the shape of the base.

 A sphere has a curved surface on which every point is

equidistant from the center.
 A rectangular prism has six rectangles for its outside
surface. Each surface is called a face. Each pair of faces
intersects outside in an edge.
 A cone has a circle for the base and a curved surface
that comes to a point.
 A cylinder has 2 equal and parallel circles as bases and a
lateral curved surface.
 A pyramid has a base of any polygon and triangular faces
that meet in a common vertex. A square pyramid has a
square for its base.
 A cube or a square prism has six squares for its faces. All
the edges are equal in length. It has 8 vertices and 12
edges.
 A triangular prism has 3 rectangular and 2 triangular
faces.

1 cube cylinder pyramid

Rectangular prism sphere square pyramid

Cone triangular prism cylinder

Rectangular prism pyramid cone

Cube pyramid sphere

Triangular prism sphere cube

Cone cube cylinder

Learning Task 3
Identify the solid figure being described in the following

sentences.
1. A ___________________ has 2 equal and parallel circles as bases
and a lateral curved surface.
2. A ____________________has a base of any polygon and triangular
faces that meet in a common vertex. It has a square for its base.
3. It is a solid figure that ____________________has a curved surface
on which in every point is the same distance from the center
within. It is perfectly round.
4. A _______________ or a square prism has six squares for its faces.
All the edges are equal in length. It has 8 vertices and 12 edges.
5. A _______________ has 3 rectangular and 2 triangular faces.

6. A _____________________ has six rectangles for its outside surface.

Each surface is called a face. Each pair of faces intersects
outside in an edge.
7. A ____________________ has a circle for the base and a curved
surface that comes to a point.

D. Assimilation 1 day When Ara celebrated her 12th birthday, she organized and sorted her
Paglalapat received gifts by its different shapes as a way to guess what is inside in each
gift. She observes the similar and different attributes of the gifts to put them
into categories. Looking at the characteristics of the gifts, what are the
shapes of the sides of each gift, and how many sides, edges, and corners
does each have?
From the gifts sorted by Ara, try to fill in the table with its characteristics
namely its number and shapes of faces, bases, name of the solid figure and
its description. Do this on your notebook, Number one is done for you.
Gifts Solid Figure Number of Shape of Base Description
represented Faces
Cube 6 square square Each face is
faces a square.

V. ASSESSMENT Try constructing the following nets to form a solid figure and write a short
(Learning Activity Sheets for description about it. Refer to the rubrics below.

VI. REFLECTION  The learner communicates the explanation of their personal

assessment as indicated in the Learner’s Assessment Card.
 The learner, in their notebook, will write their personal insights about
the lesson using the prompts below.
