LESSON PLAN IN MATHEMATICS 7

Content Standard:
The learner demonstrates understanding of key concepts of sets and the real number system.

Performance Standard:
The learner is able to formulate challenging situations involving sets and real numbers and solve these in
a variety of strategies.

Learning Competency:
The learner describes well-defined sets, subsets, universal sets, and the null set and cardinality of sets.
(M7NS-Ia-1)

I. OBJECTIVES
At the end of the lesson 80% of students should be able to:
1. Define sets, universal sets, elements of a set and cardinality of sets.
2. Identify the elements and cardinality of a given set.
3. Set priorities straight.

II. SUBJECT MATTERS

A. Topic: Introduction to Sets
B. References: Essential Mathematics pages 1-3, 14, Internet
C. Materials: Visual Aids, cut out papers, chalk and eraser

III. PROCEDURE
A. Introductory Activities
1. Daily Routine
2. Priming
“24 GAME”

Instruction: The teacher will give flash cards to each group and will ask them to use it in order to make
a total of 24. They will be advised that they can use any of the four fundamental operations in
Mathematics and parenthesis symbol.

B. Lesson Proper

1. ACTIVITY: CATEGORIZE ME! (Grouping)

Instructions: Teacher will start to dictate group of words and each group will be given a chance
to write down the name of the group where it belong. On the other hand, teacher will also provide a
category and 5 members of the group will write one element (each) of the category on the blackboard.

Honda 9 apple
Toyota 18 banna
Mitsubishi 27 mango
Hyundai 36 orange
Suzuki 45 strawberry

Group of even collection of consonant Presidents in the

numbers letters in English alphabet Philippines
(5 members) (5 members) (5 members)
2. ANALYSIS
a. How was the activity?
b. What connection can you see between the samples that you provided and the categories
that I gave?
c. Can we say that it is a group/collection and the samples are its members? Further explain.
d. What other term can you come up with when we talk about “a group of” or “a collection
of”?

3. ABSTRACTION
Based on the responses of the students from the activity, teacher outlined the topic as
follows:

Definition of Terms:

Set is a well-defined collection of distinct objects usually denoted by capital letters. This
means that our description of the elements of a set is clear.
Example: set of odd numbers less than 10
set of vowels in English alphabet
factors of 12

Universal Set is the totality of sets under a particular discussion. It is a set of all elements
under consideration, denoted by capital U.
Example: U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
A = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
B = {3, 4, 5, 6, 7}

U = {all students in our class}

R = {students in the class who like Rap music},
C = {students in the class who like Classical music},
E = {students in the class who like 80’s music}

Elements of a Set are different objects that form a set. It is written in any order and is not
repeated, usually denoted by small letters or numbers.
Example: A = {eggplant, peanut, squash, onion, garlic}
B = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}
C = {a, b, c, d, e, f}

Cardinality of a Set is the number of distinct elements of the set denoted by n(A) read as
‘number of element in A’.
Example: A = {2, 4, 5, 9, 15} has 5 elements; n(A) = 5
C = {3, 3, 5, 6, 7, 7, 9} has 5 element; n(C) = 5
E = { } has no element; n(A) = 0

4. APPLICATION
The teacher will give an exercise to the class.
1. Give a defining property for each of the following sets:
a) { C, D, E, F, A, G, B }
b) { 1, 2, 4, }
2. Write down the elements and cardinality of the given set.
a) { 5, 10, 10, 15, 15, 15, 20 }
b) { w, x, y, z }
 IV. EVALUATION
A. Tell whether the given is a SET or NOT. Write Yes if it’s a SET and No if NOT.
1. Group of fast swimmers
2. Set of prime numbers less than 10
3. Multiples of 6

B. U = set of counting numbers less than 6

A = set of odd numbers less than 6
B = set of even numbers less than 6
C = set of factors of 5

From the given, find the following:

4. List the elements of universal set U.
5. What is n(B)?

V. CLOSURE

“Desires dictate our priorities, priorities shape our choices, and choices determine our actions.”
― Dallin H. Oaks

“Good things happen when you set your priorities straight”

― Scott Caan
