Teacher’s Activity Students Activity

A Preparation / Routine Activity

a. Prayer
May I request everyone to please stand (The students will follow the teacher’s
and start our day with a prayer. instruction)

(Julianna will lead the prayer)

b. Greetings

pieces of trashes and put it in the
garbage bin. Also, please arrange your
chairs properly.

d. Checking of Attendance
Make sure you are in your proper seat
because I will be checking your
attendance base on your seat plan. Are
you in your proper seat right now? Yes Ma’am

e. Review
Before we proceed to our lesson, let us
first recall what was our topic yesterday.

Can anyone tell me what was

yesterday’s discussion? Our discussion yesterday is about
parallel and perpendicular lines, ma’am.

When can you say that it is parallel and

perpendicular line? It is a parallel line when there is two
line that never intersects, while
perpendicular line is when two lines
intersect and forms a 90°.
B. Motivation
BATO-BATO PICK WITH A TWIST

Direction: I will give each student ten-

peso coin. Every time they win, they (The students will participate actively)
will get their opponents ten-peso until
there’s only one who student that is left
who as all the ten peso-coins.

C. Presentation
How do you find our activity? (Students answer will vary)

Base on our activity do you have any

idea what will be our discussion for
today? Our discussion for today is all about
probability.
D. Discussion

Basic concept of probability

Will you please read what is our
objectives?
At the end of the lesson, the students are
expected to:
a. Demonstrates understanding of key
concepts of probability.
b. Formulate and solve practical
problems involving probability of
simple events.
c. Illustrates an experiment, outcome,
Probability sample space and event.

What comes into your mind when you

hear the word probability?
Possible answers:

Will you please read what is the

meaning of probability?
Probability is the measure or estimation
of how likely an event is to occur which
can be expressed as fraction, decimal, or
Usually in mathematics we deal with a percent.
things that are certain and always
happen like if we add 1+1, what is the
sum?

Or if we multiply 5x2, what is the The sum is equals to 2.

product?
The product is equals to 10.
Meaning there is no uncertainty at all.
But in real world many things can’t be
predicted with total certainty

To understand it easier we have here the

probability line.
What can you observe on our probability
line?
In the figure we have 0-1. 0 is
impossible meaning it will not happen
or it will never happen. 1 means certain
Levels of probability
or you are really sure that it will
0% impossible
happen.
Getting a 7 on a die

(The students will listen attentively)

Unlikely
Getting yellow on a wheel

Even chance
Tossing a coin

Likely
Getting a white ball on a jar with 8/10
black balls
Certain
Getting a green pencil out of 10 green
pencils.

Tell whether the event is certain,

possible, and impossible to happen.

A mother will give birth to twins.

It is possible.
Tamarind is sour.
It is certain.
You will go sunbathing tonight.
It is impossible.
It will snow in the Philippines.
It is impossible.
I can count the hair on my head.
It is impossible.
My crush will crush me back.
It is possible.
Ma’am Nicka Is beautiful.
It is certain.
I will reach up to 100 years old.
It is possible.
Taylor swift is a great singer.
It is certain.

Here are the terminologies use in the

basic concepts of probability.

Experiment
Can you please read what is an
experiment.
 Experiment is a chance process that
leads to a well-defined result called
Example: outcome.
You are conducting an experiment when:
You roll a die

(The students will listen attentively)

Tossing/flipping a coin

Get a card out of a standard deck of

cards

After you conduct an experiment or an

activity you will be having an outcome.

Outcome
What is an outcome, can you please
read?
An outcome is the result of a single trial
of an experiment.
In relation to our activity paper rock and
scissors how many outcomes do we
have?
We have 2 outcomes, it’s either we lose
or we you win.
Example:
You will have an outcome when:
Flip/toss a coin.

What are the possible outcomes if we

flip a coin?

Experiment Outcome
Flip a coin

Experiment Outcome
Sample space Flip a coin Head(H), Tail(T)

Can you please read what is a sample

space?
Sample space is a set of all possible
outcomes in an experiment. It is
denoted by S. The total number of
In sample space we just need to list all possible outcomes is denoted by n(S).

number of possible outcomes.

Example:
Flipping/tossing a coin

What is our sample space we flip a coin.
