Detailed Lesson Plan in Mathematics 5

I. Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the students are expected to:
A. find the area of a circle in square metres and centimeters;
B. find enjoyment in doing the activity;
C. manipulate and measure the diameter and radius of the circle.

II. Subject Matter

Topic: Area of a Circle
Reference: Math 5
Materials: , Real objects, cutouts of circles, chart, flashcards
Strategies: Group activity, Using a problem opener

III. Procedures
A. Preparatory Activities
1. Drill
Game Ka Na Ba?
a. The teacher reads the question with choices.
b. The teacher will ask: Would you like to go on for P100 or stop?
If he/she goes on, the price goes higher and higher until he/she gets the prize.
Example:
1. What is the missing term in this number sequence 2,4,6,8,___
a. 9 b. 10 c. 11 d. 12

2. Review
a. Identify the parts of a circle.
C
A B
1. Line segment AB is called _______
2. Line segment CD is called _______
D
3. Motivation
Name any round object inside the classroom or any round object that you brought. Show the
diameter and the radius.

B. Developmental Activities
1. Presentation
 Strategy 1: Practical Work – Group Activity
Materials: real objects such as plate, ice cream cup cover of any size or any round object,
ruler, tape measure.
Mechanics:
a. Instruct the pupils to bring out the materials that they brought like paper plate, ice cream
cup cover or any round object.
b. Let the pupils measure the diameter as shown below.
 24 cm
8cm

c. Divide the diameter by 2 to get the radius.

d. Tell the pupils that π is equal 3.14 or ¼ of the circumference of the circle.
The area of a circle = 𝜋𝑟 2

e. Solve for the area of a circle.

A = π x 𝑟2
= 3.14 x 42
= 3.14 x 16
A = 50.24 cm2

f. Call as many pupils in front and solve for the area of the circle.
What value is developed when you perform the activity?

 Strategy 2: Use a problem opener

Materials: cut outs of circles

Every time it rains, Mrs. Flores saves water in a big clay jar called “tapayan”. She
covers them with a circular galvanized iron with a radius of 5 dm. What is the area of the
circular cover?

a. Look at the figure of the circle.

What is the radius?

5 dm

5dm

b. Explain to the pupils that the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the diameter is the
same for all circles. The circumference of any circle is about 3 1/7 or 3.14 times the
diameter. The ratio is represented by the Greek letter π spelled pi and pronounced as
pie.

c. Let the pupils find the area.

A = 𝜋𝑟 2
= 3.14 x 5 x 5
= 3.14 x 25
A = 78.50 dm2

d. Distribute cutouts of circle with dimensions and let the pupils find the area.
 e. Call as many pupils to solve for the area of the circle on the board.

2. Generalization
What is the formula in finding the area of a circle?
A = 𝜋𝑟 2

IV. Evaluation

Find the area of the circles.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
6 cm 11 cm 6.5 cm 8m
11.5 m

V. Assignment
Find the area of the circle.
Draw and write the measurement of their radius or diameter.
1. radius – 9.5 cm 2. diameter – 14 cm 3. Radius – 12cm 4. Diameter – 9m 5. Radius – 20cm
A - ______ A - _______ A - ________ A - _______ A - _______
