September-October
The Beauty of Math
STAGE 1: DESIRED RESULT
Established Goals
Content Standard: The students will:
 demonstrate understanding of the key concepts of geometry of shapes and sizes,
and geometric relationships.
Performance Standard: The students will:
 Creates models of plane figures and formulate and solve accurately authentic
problems involving sides and angles of a polygon
Competencies:
The students:
 Adds and subtracts polynomials
 Represents points, line and plane using concrete and pictorial models
 Illustrates subsets of a line
 Classifies the different kinds of angles
 Derives relationships of geometric figures using measurements and by inductive
reasoning, supplementary angles, complementary angles, congruent angles,
vertical angles, adjacent angles, linear pairs, perpendicular lines, and parallel
lines
 Derives relationships among angles formed by parallel lines cut by transversal
using measurement and by inductive reasoning
 Uses a compass and straightedge to bisect line segments and angles and construct
perpendiculars and parallels
 Illustrates polygons: (a) convexity; (b) angles; (c) sides
Transfer Goal:
Students on their own will be able to grasp the lesson, to be more accurate in
dealing with the concepts involving length such as distance, perimeter and area
that they have most encountered and will in their daily lives.
Essential Understanding: The student Essential Question(s):
will understand:
 Why is measurement
important? What does it
actually tell us?

Students will understand the wide
concept of measurement. That it
gives them a picture of what’s
going on and be able to give
difference regarding about the
things about them.

Illustrate what it means to measure.
Describes the development of measurement from the primitive to the present
international system of units.
\Approximates the measures of qualities particularly length, weight/mass,
volume, time, angle and temperature and rate.
Converts measurements from one unit to another in both Metric and English
systems.
Solves problems involving conversion of units of measurement.
Translate English phrases to mathematical phrase and vice versa.
Differentiates between constants and variables in a given algebraic expression.
Evaluates algebraic expression for given values of the variables.
Classifies algebraic expressions which are polynomial according to degree and
number of terms.
Adds and subtracts polynomials.
Multiplies and divides polynomials.
Uses models and algebraic methods to find the: (a) product of two binomials; (b)
product of sum and difference of two terms; (c) square of a binomial; (d) cube of
a binomial; (e) product of a binomial and a trinomial.
