DETAILED LESSON PLAN IN MATHEMATICS 7

I. OBJECTIVES
At the end of the lesson, 80% of the students will be able to:
a. defines polygons;
b. identifies the different parts of a polygons; and
c. states the different classifications of a polygon.

II. SUBJECT MATTER

Topic: Polygons
References: Mathematics 7 Learner’s Material
Instructional Material: Visual Aids, Cut-out Shapes

III. PROCEDURES

A.
Preliminary a. Prayer
Activities  The class will start by a prayer.
b. Greetings
 The teacher will greet from her students and the students will
respond to their teacher.
c. Checking of Attendance
 The teacher will ask the students if there are any absent in the
class.
d. Setting of Classroom Standard
 Listen carefully.
 Raise your hand if you want to answer.
15 min  Please participate in every group activity.
e. Motivation

“Stop That Mystery Box”

 Inside the box there are cut-out shapes of different figures. When
the music starts, the first person who hold the box will pass the
mystery box. And if the music stop, the one who is holding the
box will pick a cut-out shape inside the box and answer the
following questions;
 1. How many sides are there in the figure?
2. What shape is represented by the figure?

(The following are figure inside the box.)

 The class will start the game and continue playing until all the
cut-out shapes will be pick.

B. Activity
“PICK ME UP”

The teacher will give an instruction to the class and identify which
figure or shapes are polygons.
In the first columns, SHAPES are provided by the teacher and on
the other sides are polygons that students will identify.
The teacher will call their names who’s raising in the class and go to
the front to transfer the figures which belong to the polygons.

GUIDE QUESTIONS:
How did you find our activity? Is it engaging?
What have you observed in our activity?
Can you give me the definition of the polygons?
How about its parts? Do you have any idea?
How can you say that a figure is a polygon?

D.
Abstraction  A polygon is a closed two-dimensional geometric figure made up of
line segments, the sides, on a plane that meet at their endpoints,
the vertex or vertices.
 The term polygon originates from the Greek word “poly” meaning
“many” and “gon” means “angles. Polygons are named according
to the number of sides and angles they have.

Types of Polygons:
Depending on the sides and angles, the polygons are classified into
different types, namely;
1. Regular Polygon – is a polygon in which all the interior angles
are equal, and also, all the sides are equal.
- It contains equilateral and equiangular. A polygon is
equilateral if all its sides are equal while equiangular if all its
angles are equal.
2. Irregular Polygon – is a polygon with a different measure of
angles and side lengths.

Classifications of the Polygons

 Parts of a Polygon
A

 Vertex or Vertices – A, B, C, D, and E

 Angles - <A, <B, <C, >D, and <E
 Consecutive Vertices - A and B, B and C, C and D
 Consecutives Sides - AB and BC , AE and ED

E.
Application Guide Questions
 The teacher will give an example from real-life applications.
1. What figure that best describes from the following:
a. A slice of pizza
b. The stop signs across the roads
c. The shape of the house
d. The black figure in a soccer ball.
2. Is it a regular or irregular polygon?
