A Detailed Lesson Plan in Grade 8 Mathematics ON Basic Concepts of Probability

The document provides a detailed lesson plan for teaching basic concepts of probability to 8th grade mathematics students, including defining key terms like experiment, outcome, sample space, and event; illustrating examples; and having students practice identifying sample spaces and possible outcomes for simple experiments like coin flips or card draws. The lesson aims to help students understand probability as the possibility or likelihood of events expressed as fractions, decimals, or percentages.

IV. Instructional Procedure

Teacher’s Activities Students’ Activities


a) Preparatory Activities
1. Prayer
Before we formally start our
class, can someone please lead
the prayer?
2. Greetings
Good afternoon, class. Good afternoon, ma’am.
Before you sit down please pick up
the pieces of trashes under your
chair and please do arrange your
seats properly.

Here’s your batteries. So again, I’ll


get one strip once I noticed that
some of your group members are
noisy and if your place is dirty. Do
you understand? Yes, ma’am

Any violence reaction? No, ma’am

Please arrange your seats in


circular form. From now on, your
sitting arrangement in this subject
must be look like that.

b) Presenting
 Drill/Review Exercises
QUESTIONS:
1. 1. To God, nothing is 1. impossible
_________.
2. Now is your ____________ 2. chance
to change for the better.
3. I’m ___________ that you 3. certain
can do better than what is
expected of you.
4. Given the chance to win 4. 4-in-5 chance
in the Math Contest, I prefer
the ____________.
5. You and I have 5. even
___________ chance to
succeed in life.

Are those words familiar to


you? Maybe yes/no.
c) Developmental Activity
 Motivation
PINOY HENYO
I have here words that you
have to guess.
 Presentation
1. What particular topic
comes to your mind when
you see the words Probability
in the illustration in our drill?
2. What qualitative terms
can be used to express
probable occurrences of
events in a man’s life? Impossible, unlikely, uncertain, chance,
odds, likely, certain
3. How else can the possible
occurrence or likelihood of
an event be expressed? Can be expressed as a fraction, a
decimal or a percent

4. Based on the
illustration, how do you
define probability? Probability is the possibility of
occurrences, chance or likelihood of
events in a man’s life which can be
expressed as a fraction, a decimal or a
percent.
 Discussion / Comparison
Probability is the chance
that something will happen.

Experiment refers to any


situational activity that
involve chances.

Outcome is any possible of


an experiment.

Sample Space is the


complete list of all possible
outcomes.

Event refers to any subset of


sample space.

Examples:
a. Getting a TTT when
flipping a coin thrice
b. Choosing a
“Queen” from a deck of
cards (any of the 4 Queens)
c. Getting an “odd
number” (1, 3, or 5) when
rolling a die
 Fixing Skills
When a mother gives birth
to a baby, what are
possible outcomes? The baby could be a boy or a girl.

When you toss a coin, what


are the possible outcomes? The coin may land head or tail.

Experiment possible Experiment possible
Space Space

Tossing a Tossing a S = {1, 2, 3, n(S) = 6
die die 4, 5, 6}

 Generalization
Again what is probability?

What is an experiment?

Probability is the chance that something


What is an outcome? will happen.

Experiment refers to any situational


activity that involve chances.
What is sample space?
Outcome is any possible of an
experiment.
What is an event?

Sample Space is the complete list of all


possible outcomes.

Event refers to any subset of sample


space.
VI. Application/Evaluation
Directions: Given the experiment, list the sample space and the number of
possible outcomes.
