0

DAILY LESSON LOG in MATH 9 (1st Quarter)

Table of Content (toc)

I. Objectives:

LC: Solves quadratic equations by: (a) extracting the square; (b) factoring; (c) completing the square; and (d) using the quadratic formula. (M9AL-Ig-h-4)

At the end of the lesson, the learners should be able to:

  • Solve quadratic equations by extracting square roots.

II. Content: Patterns and Algebra – Solving Quadratic Equations by Extracting Square Roots

III. Learning Resources:

  • BEAM Second Year Module 4 (TG)
  • EASE Module Second Year Quadratic Equations Module 3 Chapter 6
  • LM pp. 18–26
  • www.kutasoftware.com

IV. Procedures:

A. Reviewing previous lesson or presenting the new lesson:

  • Ask:
    • “What is a square root?”
    • “What is the square root of 36? Of 0? Of -25?”
  • Let students respond aloud or write on the board. Use this to activate prior knowledge and identify misconceptions.

B. Establishing a purpose for the lesson:

  • “Today, we’ll learn how to solve simple quadratic equations using square roots. This will help you solve problems faster!”
  • Tip: Connect this to real-life scenarios like calculating dimensions or physics problems.

C. Presenting illustrative examples/instances of the lesson:

  • Write on the board:
    • \( x^2 = 49 \)
    • \( a^2 = 0 \)
    • \( b^2 = -36 \)
  • Ask:
    • “Can we get the square root of each side?”
    • “What answer do we get?”
  • Explain the use of the ± symbol for positive roots and the concept of no real solution for negative radicands.

D. Discussing new concepts and practicing new skills #1:

  • Group Work: Pair students and give each pair two equations:
    • \( x^2 = 81 \)
    • \( m^2 = -16 \)
  • Let them solve and present their answers. Provide hints and guide their reasoning.

E. Discussing new concepts and new skills #2:

  • Ask:
    • “Why do we write ± before the square root?”
    • “How do we know if it has no real solution?”
  • Have volunteers solve on the board:
    • \( x^2 = 100 \)
    • \( y^2 + 25 = 0 \Rightarrow y^2 = -25 \)

F. Developing mastery (guides formative assessment):

  • Individual Practice: Solve the following:
    • \( x^2 = 121 \)
    • \( z^2 = 0 \)
    • \( k^2 = -49 \)
  • Ask students to:
    • Show their solution step-by-step.
    • Identify how many real solutions each equation has.

G. Making generalizations and abstractions about the lesson:

  • Ask:
    • “When can we use square roots to solve an equation?”
    • “What should we remember when solving equations like \( x^2 = k \)?”
  • Expected answer:
    • “We can solve \( x^2 = k \) using square roots. We use ± if \( k \) is positive. If \( k \) is negative, there’s no real solution.”

H. Finding practical applications of concepts and skills in daily living:

  • Ask: “Where can we use square roots?”
  • Examples:
    • To find the side of a square field (Area = side²).
    • In physics (e.g., velocity, acceleration formulas).

I. Evaluation of Learning:

  • Short Quiz: Solve the following:
    • \( x^2 = 64 \)
    • \( y^2 = -81 \)
    • \( m^2 = 0 \)

J. Additional activities for application or remediation:

  • Pair students who need help with those who have mastered the skill.
  • Use manipulatives like square tiles to visualize square roots.
(alert-passed) This lesson plan includes peer collaboration, conceptual understanding, and real-world application. Teachers are encouraged to adapt based on learner needs.
