thousands place and so on.
2) Ask them to give the expanded form then give the value of each digit.
3) Repeat the activity on billion numbers.
Example: 15 086 912 403 357 296 324 081
How many periods are there in millions?
How many digits are found in billions?
c. Present the lesson using an abacus with 12 rods. An improvised abacus may be made
using bottle caps, pieces of wood or balls for the beads, a piece of wooden board for the
stand and a thick wire or banana cue stick for the post.
Let the pupils show the number 487 293 465 on the abacus. Then ask them what digit is
represented by the beads on each rod? Present also numbers in billions place.

B. Developmental Activities
1. Presentation
Rica, a Grade 4 pupil needs 27 for her school project. She did not ask money
from her parents because she has saved 30 from her daily allowance. What kind
of a girl is Rica?

10
2. Analysis/Abstraction
Looking back at the number line, is 27 nearer to 20 or 30? Number 27 is nearer to 30
than 20. So, if we round 27 to the nearest tens, it will become 30.
Valuing:
• How did you find the activity?
• What kind of a girl is Rica?
• How much did Rica need for her school project?
• How much is her savings?
• Are you like Rica? Do you also save a certain amount from your daily allowance?

4. Generalization
In rounding numbers to the nearest tens, look at the digit at the right of the tens
digit. If the number is 5 or more, add 1 to the tens place, if the digit is less than 5,
retain the tens digit. Change the ones digit to zero

Each square is divided diagonally. The multiplicand is written on top and the
multiplier on the right sides outside the box.
Every entry in a square is the product of a digit in one factor and a digit of the other
factor. The entry maybe a one-digit product or a 2-digit product. In case of a 2-digit
product, the digit in the upper half of the square is to be regrouped to the next higher
place value. The entries in each row are the partial products of one factor. Adding the
numbers in the diagonals is the same as adding the partial products column by column.

Directions:
1) Two players share the same game board. Each player has 13 chips as markers with
color different from his or her opponents.
2) Each player takes his or her turn solving a problem mentally before he or she places
a marker on that square on the game board.
3) The players try to make as many tic-tac-toes as possible by aligning their markers
horizontally, vertically or diagonally. The players also try to block each other from
making a tic-tac-toe.
4) A marker may belong to more than one tic-tac-toe.
5) The game continues until all the squares are covered.
6) Each player counts his or her tic-tac-toes and totals the points. Points are awarded
as follows. Three in a row counts as 1 point. Four in a row counts as 3 points and five
in a row counts as 5 point.
7) If a player solves a problem incorrectly, he or she loses a turn.
8) The player with the most points wins.

Player’s Choice
Spread the cards face down. Each player chooses two cards of the same color
and subtracts the two fractions.
Chance option: If a player wants to try to increase his/her difference, one more
card may be chosen. However, before choosing the third card, the player must discard
one of the other two cards. The player with the greatest difference wins all the cards used
in the round, including any discarded cards. If players have the same difference, all cards
from the round are placed aside. The winner from the next round gets these cards. When
all the cards are played, the player with the most cards wins.
3. Generalization
Subtract the numerator then write the answer over the denominator.

a. Show a piece of lace and a square handkerchief.
If I’m going to sew lace around my handkerchief would this lace be enough? Get the
children’s opinion. What are we going to do to be sure on the length of the lace? Let the
pupils measure the sides and compute for the distance around. Ask what they measured
and why. Tell them to describe what they measured leading them to use the phrase
distance around. Introduce the term perimeter for this distance. Have the pupils illustrate
the object (handkerchief) on the board with the corresponding measures and ask one
pupil to write the number sentence for this.
