A Detailed Lesson Plan in Mathematics for Grade V
I. Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, 80% of the Grade V pupils should be able to:
a. identify the different kinds of polygons;
b. actively participates in searching and taking pictures of polygons around the school
premises; and
c. precisely give the number sides and angles of a given polygon.
II. Subject Matter:

Topic: Identifying Polygons
References: Our World of Math 5, pages 318- 321
by Noel M. Menor
Materials: visual aids, cut-out shapes, pictures, digital camera
III. Procedure:
Teacher’s Activity Pupil’s Activity

A. Routinary Activity
“Good morning, class!” “Good morning, Ma’am!”
“Let us pray first…” (One student will lead the prayer)
(Checking of Attendance)
“Class how are you today?”
“Okay! That’s great. So, are you ready to listen
to our new topic today?”
“Now, let’s begin with a group activity. Are you
ready?”
B. Motivation
Group Activity: (The student will be divided into (The students may come up with the following
five. Each group will be given with materials and answers.)
instructions written on it. Every group are given
3 minutes to answer the activity)
Group 1:
Group 2:
Group 3:
Group 4:
Group 5:
Very nice! I am pleased you were able to finish the

given task to you. Now let’s discuss your answers.
From the first group, you were asked to list down the
geometrical figures seen in the drawing. Anybody
who can tell me what do these geometric figures
called? Polygon is a closed plane figure made up of
three or more line segments joined at their

Very Good. Group 2 got the correct answer to endpoints.
the guess the word game which is POLYGONS.
Now, let me introduce to you the different types
of polygons. Would someone read this definition
of polygon for me?
Thanks. Do you know that polygons are named Triangle

according to the number of its sides? A triangle has three sides.
It has three angles.
Okay! Now, let’s take a look at the figures with “tri” which means “3”

shape is this? Can anyone tell me what makes a
triangle different from other shapes? Quadrilateral
Nice answers! In addition to your answers, A quadrilateral has four sides.
triangle has a prefix “tri” which means “3”. It has four angles.
Let’s proceed with the next polygon. (While “quad” means “four”.
pointing at the quadrilateral, the teacher will ask (Write these properties below the shape on the

you tell me about it?
Continue by explaining that “quad means four”.

Then, write quad means four below the
quadrilateral.
Pentagon
Let’s proceed with the next polygon. (While A pentagon has 5 sides.
pointing at the pentagon, the teacher will ask It has five angles.
the students.) What polygon is this? What can “pent” means “5”
you tell me about it? (Write these properties below the shape on the
board.)
What is the prefix of pentagon? What does
“pent” means?
(The students will continue to identify the

angles for each polygon.) nonagon, and decagon.)
That’s good class. I know that you’ll find it easy

to name of identify the different types of
polygons. Now, can somebody give me the Regular Polygons
answer? What do you call to a polygon having
equal sides and equal angles?
D. Analysis
You got it! Now, let’s have a short activity before

you take the quiz.
Using a ruler, draw the following regular

polygons inside each box. 1. A regular polygon with 3 sides
1. A regular polygon with 3 sides



E. Generalization
Now, Class, let’s remember that polygons are (The students answer)
closed plane figure made up of three or more line
segments joined at their endpoints and it is named
according to the number of its sides. Can you again
tell me the different types of polygons?
F. Application
Group Activity: “Polygon Hunt” (Sample of Polygon Hunt sheet)
Organize students in group of two. Take them
as a group as they explore the school for polygons.
Let them take a camera. Instruct students to take
pictures of polygons they find and record their
information on a polygon hunt sheet. Once each
pair has found ten polygons, have them print the
pictures and present their findings to the class.
IV. Evaluation
The sum of the measures of the angle of the triangle is 180o. Count the number of triangles that can be
formed without overlapping in each polygon. Compute for the sum of the measures of the angles of
polygon.

V. Assignment
On a short bond paper, make an art depicting the different polygons seen in real life.
