SEMI- DETAILED LESSON PLAN IN MATHEMATICS (GRADE-III)

I.OBJECTIVES
1. Identify what is dissimilar fraction;
2. Describe the importance of dissimilar fraction; and
3. Visualize dissimilar fraction.
II.LEARNING CONTENT
A. SUBJECT MATTER: Visualizing dissimilar fraction
B. REFERENCE: Teacher’s Manual, pp. 228-233
C. MATERIALS: activity sheets, flash cards and charts
III.LEARNING TASK
A. Engagement
a. Prayer
b. Greetings
c. Checking of Attendance
d. Management
e. Review
Parts of a fraction
What do we call the numbers written above the fraction bar
What does 1 means in 1/8 ? What does 3 means in 1/8
What do we call the numbers written below the fraction bar
B. Motivation: Group Work
a. Divide the class into 3 groups. Group 1 will be “rectangle group”bar, Group 2 will be
“circle group”, and 3 will be the “ square group”
b. Each Groups will be given 3 pieces of cuts- out
c. Ask each groups to get a shape and folds into three equal part .the rectangle group
will shade 1 part, the “the circle group will shade parts 2” and “the square” 3 part
d. Ask them again to get another shape and folds into four equal part .the rectangle
group will shade 1 part, the “the circle group will shade parts 2” and “the square” 3
part
e. Ask them again to get another shape and folds into 8 equal part .the rectangle group
will shade 1 part, the “the circle group will shade parts 3” and “the square” 6 part
C. Developmental Task

1. Presenting the Lesson

Ask each group to post their works on the board.

Rectangle Group Circle Group Square Group

2. Performing Activities
Ask the pupils to get the picture of 1/8, 3/8 and 6/8 and name shaded part

SET A

3/8 6/8
1/8

SET B

Ask another pupil to get the picture of 3/8 , 1/3/ and 3/4

3/8 3/4
1/3
 Ask: Into How many Equal part where the shapes in Set A divided?
a. What parts of the fraction does it represent? (Denominator)
b. What have you noticed with denominators?
c. How about set B? What are the denominators? are all the same
d. Do you know the name of the fractions with the same denominator?
e. Similar Fraction are fraction with the same denomination
f. How about the fraction in Set B . Do they have the same denominator?
g. What do you call these fraction these fractions that have different denominator?
(Tell the students that the fraction with the different denominator are called dissimilar fraction)
h. Have them give other examples of dissimilar fractions and draw their representation

3. Processing the Activities

A. When are the fraction called dissimilar
B. What part of the fraction are you going compare?
C. If you are given shapes to represents dissimilar fractions, how are you going to do it?
4. Reinforcing Concepts
a. Class Activity
Have the 5 sets of fractions below be written on ½ of cartolina. Divide the class in 5 groups
and give each group one set of fractions.
Which fraction will be crossed out to make each set dissimilar fraction a better e. Give your
reason for crossing it out.
1. 4/5, 2/4, 1/5, 5/8, 1/6
2. 2/4, 7/8, 8/8, 5/6, 3/9
3. 5/4, 6/8, 6/5,1/3, 3/4
4. 6/8, 5/7, 3/5,2/8,5/5
5. 4/8, 9/10,5/6, 4/6, 1/3

b. Group Activity
Illustrate the pair of fraction. Then write dissimilar fraction and similar, if these are not
dissimilar fraction.
1. 5/8, 3/6,4/2
2. 2/4, 6/7, 6/8
3. ¾, 2/4, 1/4
4. 4/5, 4/6, 1/2
5. 2/3, 3/8, 1/5
c. Pair Activity
Playing a Fact or Bluff
A pair of students will be given a picture, they were given a choice to choose their guru who
could help them to decide wither an given pictures or examples really a dissimilar fraction

1. ¼ and ¾ are dissimilar fraction. Is it a bluff or fact?

2.

SIMILAR FRACTION?
 3.

SIMILAR FRACTION?

4. 2/3 and 2/5 ay similar fraction

5.

Dissimilar Fraction

d. Individual Activity
Refer to activity 2 in the LM let the children write the answer to the paper.
e. Applying to a new situation
Read and understand each situation. Answer the questions and prove your answer by having
an illustration of you answer.
Refer to activity 3 in the Lm.
f. Generalization
When do we say that fraction is dissimilar?
Fractions are Dissimilar if they have different denominators

g. Evaluation
Write D in the space provided, if the set of fraction is Dissimilar.
