5 mins. Recall Before we proceed to

our lesson, let us first
look back on what you
know about measuring
and gathering data.
I have questions. Ruler, meter stick, tape

in measuring the length
of an object?

Good. The uses of tools

are depending on the
object you are Meter, centimetre,
measuring. kilometres, miles and etc.

What are the units in

length? We need first to determine
what we should gather.
Very good.
In gathering data, what is Next, gather data and
the first thing to do? present it.

Then?

Nice one.
8 mins. Motivation
I have questions, let us
think of it. Do you think
students in this class
have different arm
spans? How many in this
class have the same arm
 spans? What is the
common measure of arm
spans?

In order for us to answer

that, we have an activity.

Activity Proper To attain our objectives, school.
a. Pre-activity let us first conduct an
activity. You will be
divided into three
groups. In this activity,
you will refer to the data
you gathered a while ago
about the arm spans of
your classmates. Every
group will be provided
an activity sheet
containing the
instructions and the
complete task, and
materials in answering.
Your task will be graded
by this rubric (see
attached rubric).
Accuracy, creativity,
perseverance and
teamwork is important.
You have 10 minutes to
do the activity.

15 Analysis and How do you find our
mins. Abstraction activity class? The activity seems easy as
we organize data from the
measurements of my
classmates' arm span.
Nice. In presenting the
data, did you encounter
any difficulties? Yes, because we don't know
what to do in presenting the
data. But we just organize it
with our knowldge in
elementary.
 Because we can list it with
the proper labels.

Because we can see easily

what is the numerous

table, right? So, why did
you choose table in
organizing?

Very good. Tables are

used in tabulation of
data.

Group 2, why did you Statistics is a process of Visual

Very well said. In

organizing data, you
have a freedom to
choose and you need to
be creative in your own
way, but it must be
suited to the data. So I think statistics is used in

You have a point.

Statistics pertains to
numerical data or figures
that can be presented
and counted out of
observations done by
individual.

Group 3, what activities

 you listed that you think
Statistics is involved?

Excellent! Statistics is
important in any field.
We can use statistics in
society, transportation,
education, health,
business and etc. And by
this, we can improve,
prevent and cure those.

In what way? What do

you think? I think we can improve
those especially when we
gathering data about
problems in education. We
can identify the main
problem and have a move
to lessen those.

Very well said!

5 mins. Application Now, I want you to think

of the importance of
Statistics in travelling of
students to school. Ma'am, we can gather data
about the time of travel of
my classmates to school.
We can gather data about
Nice one. What else? how many students are
travelling far from the
school.
Very good. Another
idea? We can get the number of
kilometers that the students
Excellent! travel.
Statistics can be done in
any field you want to
study.
I think you learned about
our lesson for today.
5 mins. Generalization Now lets have a short
recap about the lesson
which is Statistics.
Yes, Juan? In this lesson, we gather
data by measuring the arm
span of my classmates and
presented and oeganize it in
our own way. Also, we
define statistics which is

VII. EVALUATION

1. What is statistics?

2. Choose three of your classmates and measure their height and weight. And organize it and present
the data in your own creative but accurate way.

3. What is the importance of Statistics in transportation?

VIII. ASSIGNMENT

1. Make a survey in your community or in school to find out how far students travel to come to school.
Make the best estimate using kilometres. Ask at least 40 students and present your data using different
methods.

2. Study about organizing and presenting data using the frequency table.
