1st Quarter
I. OBJECTIVES
A. Subject: Mathematics 8
B. Topic: Factoring General Trinomials
C. References : C.G. Page 180, Grade 8 Mathematics (Patterns and Practicalities) by
Gladys C. Nivera, Ph.D., pages 34 – 43.
D. Materials: White board, marker, projector, algebraic tiles, laptop
Preliminaries:
Prayer
Greetings
Setting of Classroom Standard
Checking of Attendance
Checking of Assignments
Review on Factoring Perfect Square Trinomials
Motivation: Ignite the interest of the students through asking questions
Lesson Proper:
A. Activities
The students will be grouped into five. Each group will be given algebraic
tiles and let them do the “Match Up” activity in 10 minutes. (Please see
attachment.)
B. Analysis
After the activity the students will be asked:
1. What do you think was the activity all about?
2. How did you come up with the correct factors of an expression?
3. Can we apply this activity in real life situation? Cite some examples.
C. Abstraction
How did you find the factors of general trinomials? What method did you
use?
Discuss how to factor general trinomials of the form Ax2 + Bx + C using the
Guess and Check Method.
To factor Ax2 + Bx + C:
1. Look for a common factor.
2. Factor the first term, Ax2
3. Factor the last term, C
4. Look for factors in (2) and (3) such that the sum of their products is
the middle term, Bx.
D. Application
For further practice of the lesson, the class will have a competitive game
called “Math House Construction”. The students will do this activity with the
same groupings. Each group is provided with white board and marker.
Game Mechanics:
IV. ASSESSMENT
B. For item number 5, analyze the problem and show the solution to your
answer.
5. Find the dimensions of the rectangle whose area is (6x 2 +8x +1) cm2 and
whose perimeter is 34 cm.
V. ASSIGNMENT/AGREEMENT
Answer numbers 41-50 on page 45 of your book. (1/2 Crosswise)
Read in advance on pages 47-50 of your book and try to answer item
number 1 on page 51.
