Procedure
Mind Map
The Mind Map displays the organization and relationship between the concepts and
activities in this Learning Guide in a visual form. It is included to provide visual clues on
the structure of the guide and to provide an opportunity for you, the teacher, to
reorganize the guide to suit your particular context.
Stages of Learning
The following stages have been identified as optimal in this unit. It should be noted that
the stages do not represent individual lessons. Rather, they are a series of stages over one
or more lessons and indicate the suggested steps in the development of the targeted
competencies and in the achievement of the stated objectives.
Assessment
All six Stages of Learning in this Learning Guide may include some advice on possible
formative assessment ideas to assist you in determining the effectiveness of that stage on
student learning. It can also provide information about whether the learning goals set for
that stage have been achieved. Where possible, and if needed, teachers can use the
formative assessment tasks for summative assessment purposes i.e as measures of student
performance. It is important that your students know what they will be assessed on.
Background or purpose
Students are expected to have experiences working with whole numbers. These knowledge
is a pre-requisite skill in performing the activities on this topic. To activate this
knowledge, they will perform an activity using the restructured Agree-Disagree strategy.
Strategy
Agree or Disagree (Restructured). A strategy that will help students organize data to
support a position for or against an idea. It promotes students' thinking about the content.
A Don't Know column is added to find out the concept which the students do not have
prior knowledge.
Materials
enlarged copy of Agree or Disagree Chart, marking pens
Formative Assessment
Discuss with the students the items they agree, disagree or they don't know yet as
indicated on their charts. This way, all the students will understand each others' work.
Roundup
By carrying out this activity, the teacher will know which items cause problems and may
spend time reinforcing them.
Background or purpose
Students are presumed to have understood the concept of whole numbers. On this stage,
they will group numbers accordingly.
Strategy
Cooperative learning Work It Out. This is a teaching strategy in which small teams, with
students of different levels of ability, use a variety of learning activities to improve their
understanding of a subject. Each member is responsible not only for learning what is
taught but also for helping teammates learn, thus creating an atmosphere of achievement.
Students work through the task until all the group members successfully understand and
complete it. (http://edtech.kennesaw.edu/intech/cooperativelearning.htm)
Materials
20 number cards, flip chart/manila paper, masking tape
Activity 2: Here I AM
Prepare sets of number cards . (Refer to Teacher resource Sheet 2, page 15)
Directions:
1. Students will examine all their cut outs and discuss how to group them. Encourage
each member to share ideas. Clearly write the instructions on the flip chart where
they will paste their groupings or you may do this on the board.
2. After grouping the cutouts, they will paste them on a manila paper or flip chart.
3. Instruct them to post their work on the board for everyone to see.
Formative Assessment
Students' participation and group output can be observed during the activity.
Roundup
It is important to check further if all the students have grouped the numbers accordingly
and have given a reason/s on how they grouped them.
Background or purpose
On this stage, they will perform a series of activities that would make them gain
knowledge on the subsets of whole numbers like odd and even numbers, prime and
composite numbers, common factors and least common multiples of 2 numbers. They will
be able also to give the divisibility rules of numbers.
Materials
5 bags (20 pebbles in each bag), square cutouts, number cards from 1-10, activity sheets
10
Formative Assessment
Randomly, the teacher may call students to identify numbers as either odd or even and
find the multiples and the least common multiples of 2 numbers. They may be asked also
to give 3 or 4 numbers, their multiples and the LCM.
Observation of student's participation during the group activity should be done also. A
Student Individual Performance Checklist on page 38 maybe used.
A rubric for assessing group output may also be used. Refer to the rubric on page 38.
Roundup
Results of the activities will assist the teacher to determine if the students have gained
skills on identifying odd and even numbers, prime and composite numbers and finding the
common factors and the least common multiples of 2 numbers. He/She will further know if
the students can state the divisibility rules of numbers. Enrichment activities may be given
if necessary.
Background or purpose
After performing a series of activities on the different tasks, the students are expected to
have gained the necessary knowledge and understanding of the topic. These will be
checked further on this stage through the given exercises.
Strategy
Puzzle Game. This strategy aims to exercise one's mind. Usually, a problem is given to test
one's skill or ingenuity. The end results mirror the performance of the individual member
as they enthusiastically contribute to their group answers.
Materials
puzzle cards
11
Formative Assessment
Peer assessment maybe done as the students exchange, compare and discuss each other's
puzzle cards.
Teacher may use the Student Individual Performance Chart on page 37 to assess
individual/pair participation and outputs.
Roundup
Students are hoped to have a good understanding on the topic, Subsets of Whole Numbers.
It is important to further check and settle some difficulties of students if there are still
any through additional exercises.
Background or purpose
This stage challenges the students to draw connection and apply what they learned to real
life experiences.
Strategy
Consider All Factors (CAF). A thinking tool that promotes consideration of all factors
involved. This encourages students to think about the factors involved when thinking about
something.
Materials
square cutouts, manila paper/flip chart
Formative Assessment
A rubric for assessing the group performance and output may be used on this activity.
Refer to the suggested rubric on page 38.
12
Roundup
Students are hoped to have gained understanding on the practical application of the
concept of odd and even numbers, prime and composite numbers, factors and multiples,
and divisibility rules. Enrichment activity maybe given if it is needed.
6. Closure
This stage brings the series of lessons to a formal conclusion. Teachers may refocus the
objectives and summarize the learning gained. Teachers can also foreshadow the next set of
learning experiences and make the relevant links.
Background or purpose
It is expected that the students have acquired the knowledge and deeper understanding of
the whole topic. This stage checks what they learned about the concepts considered in the
different activities. This time, they will complete the Agree and Disagree Chart by
checking on the AFTER columns.
Strategy
Agree Disagree (Restructured)- A Revisit. This strategy will be used to evaluate the
knowledge just acquired. This will guide the teacher if the students have deeper
understanding on the concepts discussed.
Materials
Agree Disagree Chart used in Activity 1 and marker
Formative Assessment
Students' performance maybe assessed using the chart that they had accomplished.
A short discussion maybe done for any concepts they missed in the AFTER columns.
Roundup
Students are hoped to have gained the knowledge of the different lessons on the topic,
Subsets of Whole Numbers. It is important that the students' misconceptions and
difficulties will be checked by giving further enhancement activities.

Even and Odd Numbers
Even numbers can be divided evenly into groups of two. Example, number four can
be divided into two groups of two. There is no remainder. Even numbers are paired
numbers.
Odd numbers can NOT be divided evenly into groups of two. Example, number five
can be divided into two groups of two with a remainder of one. Odd numbers are
not paired.
Prime and Composite
Prime numbers are whole numbers with only 2 factors, one and the number itself.
Example, number 7 has only 2 factors, 1 and 7 (1 X 7)
Composite numbers are whole numbers with more than 2 factors. Example,
number 8 has 4 factors, 1, 2, 4 and 8 (1 X 8 and 2 X 4)
One (1) is neither a prime nor composite number.
Two (2) is the only prime number that is even.
Factors and Multiples
Factors are numbers which when multiplied will give a certain number.
For example, if we want to find the factors for 32, 1 X 32 = 32, 2 x 16 = 32, 4 x 8 =
32, so 1, 32, 2, 16, 4 and 8 are factors of 32.
A common factor is a number that is a factor for two or more products.
Example:
Factors of 32: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 and 32
Factors of 16: 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16.
The common factors of 32 and 16: 2, 4, 8 and 16. (1 is not included as the common
factor because it is a factor for all numbers.)
Factors
2 and 3
2X3=6
8 and 5
8 X 5 = 40
39
The multiples of a whole number are found by taking the product of any counting
number and that whole number. For example, to find the multiples of 3, multiply 3
by 1, 3 by 2, 3 by 3, and so on. To find the multiples of 5, multiply 5 by 1, 2, 3, and
so on. The multiples are the products of these multiplications. Some examples of
multiples can be found below. In this example, the counting numbers 1 through 10
are used. However, the list of multiples for a whole number is endless. The ... at
the end of each list below means that the list really goes on forever.
Example

The multiples of 4 are 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 40, ....
Divisibility
Divisibility means dividing a number without any remainder.
A number is divisible by another number if after dividing a greater number by the
smaller number, the answer is exact.
A number maybe divisible by more than 1 number.
6 is divisible by 2, 3 and 6.
6 2 = 3, 6 3 = 2, 6 6 = 1
