lesson  The teacher will provide at least three pictures.

 Divide the class into five groups (each group will use
THINK, PAIR and SHARE strategy).
 Provide each group with pictures.
 Let the learners identify the difference of the pictures
 Guide the students to answer the following:
 What is/are the picture?
 What have you observed on the picture?
 Did you find any common?
Process all groups’ answers.
B. Establishing a
purpose for the lesson Motive Questions:
1. What are the things common to these pictures?
(answers may vary)
2. Are there things that make them different?
3. What is/are the thing/s common to two pictures but not
found on the other? (answers may vary)

Note: The teacher must lead the students to the concept of

“Factoring with the common monomial factor”
(answers may vary)
C. Presenting examples ACTIVITY: Do we have a common?
of the new lesson
Identify the common term of each polynomial through
prime factorization.
1. 1. 2ab + 2ac – 2a
2. Ans. 2a
3. 2. 20x2 – 12
4. Ans. 4
5. 3. x(a-b) + y(a-b)
6. Ans. (a-b)
Ask the following:
 What are the prime factors of each term?
 What is the common factor?
 How did you identify the common factor?

#1 The teacher will discuss this statement.
Common monomial factoring is the process of writing a
polynomial as a product of two polynomials, one of
which is a monomial that factors each term of the
polynomial.
Every expression has itself and the number 1 as a factor.
These are called the trivial factors. If a monomial is the

product of two or more variables or numbers, then it will

have factors other than itself and 1.

Note: teacher will provide at least three examples.

E. Discussing new ACTIVITY: Match it to me!
concepts and
practicing new skills Instructions: Match the polynomial in column A to its
#2 factors in column B.

A. B.

1. x3y2 +xy3 + 2x2y3 a. xy2(x2 + y + 2xy)

Ans. a
2. x3 + x2y + xy2 b. 3(y2 – 5y – 4)
Ans. c
3. 3y2 – 15y – 12 c. xy(x2 + x + y)
Ans. b

Teacher will discuss how the factors of the polynomials

obtain.
F. Developing Mastery ACTIVITY: Group Activity

Cite one real-life situation that demonstrates polynomial

with common monomial factor.

Note: The teacher may elaborate responses of the

learners.
G. Finding practical Teacher will discuss how factoring applied in real-life
applications of situation.
concepts and skills in Example: Find the area of a rectangle whose width is 2x –
daily living 3 and the length is 5 more than the width.

Ans. 20x2 – 60x + 45

Let the learners answer.
H. Making Guide Questions for Generalization:
Generalizations and
abstractions about  What is a polynomial?
the lesson (Expected answer: Polynomial is an expression of one
or more algebraic terms.)
 How can we obtain the factors of polynomials using
common monomial factor?
(Expected answer: through the GCF.)
 What concepts have you learned from factoring that
can be applied in your daily living? (answer may
vary)

(Product – Factor Association)

Directions:
This activity will give you an idea on how factors
associated with products. You will match the factors in column A
with the products in column B to decode the secret message.
