(M) ENDURING UNDERSTANDING: Students will understand that The knowledge of real numbers is useful in solving real life problems. ESSENTIAL QUESTION: How can the knowledge of real numbers help us solve real life problems?
(T) TRANSFER GOAL: Students on their own will be able to Formulate and solve real-life problems involving real numbers.
1. The Unit Map. This unit covers the topic Numbers and Number Sense. The module map shows basic ideas of sets and use of Venn-diagrams to illustrate its operations. It also includes subsets, properties, operations and applications of real numbers in real life situations. It also includes topics on square roots, scientific notation and significant digits. This learning unit is different from other units because its scope is limited to real numbers and its subsets, square roots, scientific notation and significant digits
2. The Content Standard and Enduring Understanding. As indicated by the content standard, the goal for this unit topic is for students to understand that determining attributes of certain sets of real life objects facilitates in making classifications ( tool for processing information).Daily tasks involving conversion, estimation and scientific notation make use of the set of real numbers. Big and small quantities can be expressed conveniently in scientific notation. Students understanding of the operations of sets and the set of real numbers, its estimation, scientific notation and applications facilitates solutions to problems in real-life situations. This aspect of the unit topic is important to understand because some common problems students encounter in this topic involves application of accurate rules/procedures in simplifying numerical expressions where operating the set of real numbers specifically the set of integers and fractions are involved. The problem may be observed in the classroom or in student works when students are asked to for example, add -4 and 8, resulting to 12 instead of 4. In other cases, when students add and 2/3, the result is often 3/5 instead of 7/6. When simplifying 3 ( -8 + 4 ), the answer often given is 15 instead of 7. 5
Thus, the learning problem may be remedied and addressed if students see that mastery of the rules in operating the set of integers facilitates understanding of the key concepts of the real number system, its estimations and scientific notation as well as its application to solve real-life problems.
3. The Essential Question and Learning Competencies. In order for students to construct this underlying meaning, students will answer the EQ How can the knowledge of real numbers help us solve real life problems?
With an open-ended EQ, students will search for the answer in different ways and develop the understanding and acquire the related competencies. 4. The Performance Standard and the Transfer Goal. Another important goal as indicated by the performance standard is for students to on their own formulate and solve real-life problems involving real numbers. If students are able to demonstrate this, then students are able to transfer their learning to real life situations. Examples of situations in real life where students will apply the competencies and demonstrate the understanding are the following, students are able to solve or answer the question: How much can you possibly save from your allowance in a week? In a month? How long can you buy this item which is worth Php 1500?, How much profit or loss will you have from a tray of eggs worth P 140.00 and each egg selling at Php 6.00 each? How will you assist your mother in allocating funds for a family monthly budget? STAGE II: OBTAINING EVIDENCES OF UNDERSTANDING THROUGH VARIED ASSESSMENTS A.

OVERALL RATING
NOTES: 1. The Unit Assessment Map. The lesson assessment map provides an overview of all the assessments done in the lesson. In general, students are assessed according to the four components of the new grading system (Knowledge, Process or Skills, Understanding and Transfer). In turn, these four areas reflect the three goals of assessing for understanding namely, Acquisition, Meaning Making and Transfer or simply known as A-M-T. 2. The Pre and Post Assessment Matrix and Table of Specification. The assessment matrices code items according to A-M-T. The distribution of these items in the table of specification follows the distribution of percentages for the areas of the grading system. Hence, 40% of the test items are coded A (since Knowledge is 15% 26
and Process Skills is 25%), 30% of the items are coded M, and another 30% for T. This coding is the backbone of the OHSP assessment system. The OHSP system tracks students performance in A-M-T. Teachers can always retrieve in real time the results of students test in these areas. Results are given in both tabulated and graph forms. The diagnostic or pre-test assessment matrix determines students prior knowledge in writing to scientific notation and operating real numbers. These are seen in test items no. 5 and 18. The pre-test also measures students misconceptions on identifying subsets and significant digits. These are done through test items nos. 1 and 17. Note though that the OHSP system randomizes the sequence of the test items and the options in each item. To find out how students individually scored in the tests, go to OHSP System Student List, select student name, view students performance record, then scroll down to desired topic and click on date completion. View students test score per item and items code (A-M-T).
The post-test assessment matrix evaluates the changes in students misconceptions as seen in test items no.s 2, 9, 17 and 18. Hence, when reviewing test scores, it is important to see how students particularly score in these items as well as the other items related to understanding. Student performance in these items will indicate the kind of intervention that needs to be done. The OHSP system also shows to the teacher the items where most of the students score well or poor in. Teachers can also trace the corresponding activity in the lesson where the content of the test item is discussed. Teachers can then check on student performance in those activities and determine how their answer prepared them for the corresponding test item. 3. Interventions Based on Test Scores. If students are not able to do well in A-coded items, teachers may consider doing the following interventions: 10 15 minutes review/drill Flashcards especially for the operations on real numbers More seatworks/activities done individually or by group Additional assignments/homeworks to practice the learned skills Re-teaching may be an option also
If students are not able to do well in M-coded items, teachers may consider doing the following interventions: More real life problems that requires the application of the learned skill Provide process questions that goes beyond the skill and procedure
If students are not able to do well in T-coded items, teachers may consider doing the following interventions: Use technology through videos and other presentations to instill that the learned skill has an application in real world setting 27
Interventions for A and M-coded items are very important to succeed in T-coded items
4. Verifying Student Test Scores. Teachers may also verify student scores in A-coded items by asking students to do or answer the following in a live chat or face-to-face setting: 10 15 minutes review/drill Flashcards especially for the operations on real numbers More seatworks/activities done individually or by group Additional assignments/homeworks to practice the learned skills Re-teaching may be an option also
Teachers may also verify student scores in M-coded items by asking students to do the following in a live chat or face-to-face setting: More real life problems that requires the application of the learned skill Provide process questions that goes beyond the skill and procedure
Teachers may also verify student scores in T-coded items by asking students to do the following in a live chat or face-to-face setting: Use technology through videos and other presentations to instill that the learned skill has an application in real world setting Interventions for A and M-coded items are very important to succeed in T-coded items
5. Map of Conceptual Change. Another important indicator of student growth in thinking is the units map of conceptual change. For this unit, the chosen map is Problem Posing. The students are asked to answer this map at different points in the lesson, namely Explore, Deepen and Transfer. The students cognitive growth is qualitatively assessed by comparing the students prior knowledge and new knowledge. In the units map for conceptual change, the students show their prior knowledge by answering for the first time the process questions during Explore stage. The students articulate their new knowledge by filling up for the second time the process questions during Deepen stage. The students articulate their new and final knowledge by filling up for the last time the process questions during Transfer stage. These parts indicate transitional processes between prior and new knowledge development. Teachers are encouraged to every now and then retrieve and monitor students answers in this map. Student answers in this map provide clear data for teachers in terms of their cognitive development. 6. Formative Assessments. In order to assure student success in the summative assessments, the listed formative assessments check on the following performances as 28
indicators of student mastery and readiness: Transfer tasks at the end of each topic and the teacher needs to monitor that the students are the ones doing the tasks 7. Students Answers to Recurring Essential Question. Another way of doing formative assessment is to retrieve and examine how students answer the Essential Question. The units EQ is How can the knowledge of real numbers help us solve real life problems? The student is asked to answer the EQ in these different parts, namely: Explore: Activity 1, Activity 2, Firm Up: process questions, Activity 1, Activity 5, Activity 6, Activity 16, Deepen: process questions, Activity 6, Activity 7, Activity 17, Activity 26, Transfer: Synthesis journal.
Teachers are encouraged to compare the students final answers to the EQ with the desired EU. If the students answers are far or different from the EU, the teacher may check on the way students are doing in the activities and determine the appropriate intervention. 8. The Performance Task and Rubric. With regards to the performance task, this is designed according to the transfer goal in Part 1. The standards in the performance task are reflected in the first column of the rubric. These rubric criteria are also aligned with the performance standard because it deals with the mathematical concepts used and accuracy of computations. The rubric criteria related to understanding is the mathematical concepts used. With this criterion, students are evaluated on how much concepts they were able to apply in solving and simplifying the problem. The rubric criteria related to the competencies or skills is the accuracy of computation. With these criteria, students are evaluated on how accurate they were in solving and simplifying the problem Students achieve the performance standard when they or their work scores Satisfactory for each criteria in the rubric. Students whose works exceed the Satisfactory criteria score Outstanding. Note the additions in the descriptor which indicate extra work on the part of the students. Students whose works have errors score either as Developing or Beginning. Note the parts of the descriptors which indicate deficiencies. The submission of the performance task may be done online because some students are enrolled in the open high school program OR The submission of the performance task has to be done face to face because some students may need monitoring in the process. In the event that the performance task has to be done in school, the following will have to be done: make sure that they are the ones doing the task by procedure. Do not let them take home the task to assure genuinenity and let them submit their out-put on the given deadline. STAGE III: CONDUCTING THE LEARNING PLAN 29

NOTES: 1. The Unit Activities Map and Assessment-Activities Matrix. The unit activities map shows the different activities done in the lesson. The activities are designed to address the different A-M-T learning goals. Acquisition activities in particular are also matched according to the required and added competencies. The A activities involve defining sets, subsets, Venn-diagrams, integers and its operations, square roots, significant digits, and scientific notation. During M activities, students make meaning of the concepts they will acquire. They are allowed to fill in graphic organizers, answer worksheets, work with interactive websites to deepen and further their understanding. In T activities, students are given opportunities to see how the different topics in numbers and number sense are applied in real life. The different performance tasks will take them to different roles and to see different perspectives. The Assessment-Activities Matrix also shows the activities which implement the established and added competencies. This Matrix helps the teacher evaluate the readiness of a student to answer a particular test item by looking at the students performance in a particular activity related to the assessment. If the student does not do well in a set of test items, the teacher may go back to the activity linked to the test item and see if the student was already having difficulty. 2. The Scaffold for Transfer. The T activities are also sequenced according to a certain progression as indicated in the scaffold for transfer. The scaffold consists of four levels starting with direct prompting and on to independent transfer. In the scaffold, students focus on the skill of applying the concepts of sets and real numbers in real life 42
situations. Students develop mastery of this skill by first in direct prompt where they get to apply concepts of sets using Venn diagrams in the fields of economics and businessl do). This activity is done in the Transfer of Lesson 1. Then in the open prompt, students during Deepen of Lesson 2 Topic 2, they will be presented with problems as an application on operations on integers. Next in the guided transfer done during Transfer in Lesson 2 Topic 3 students are tasked to survey 50 students on how they spend their weekly allowance and then present the results to the parents organization. Students are again asked to do a task similar in the final level but this time in the independent level, students are evaluated according to their ability to on their own business proposal which will be evaluated according to its practicality, delivery, accuracy and organization of data, and the variety of real numbers used. 3. Enhancements (Level 1 or Level 2) a. Add for scaffold a Youtube video modeling students performance. Ask students to outline process shown in video. b. Have students take pretest again or practice prior to transfer sections or take another mini quiz from another website.
