Okay that’s enough; you may now take Thank you, Ma’am.
your seats.
 A. Review

Now, what was our lesson yesterday? Our lesson yesterday was all about algebraic
Yes, Verboy? expressions Ma’am.
Very good. What about algebraic
expressions, what does it mean? Yes, Algebraic expressions are group of terms
Alvin? separated by a plus and minus sign.
Very good.
What have you learned from our
discussion with regards to algebraic
expressions yesterday? Yes, Hazel? We learned about the concepts of constants?
What about the concepts of
constants? What does it entails? It is a term in an algebraic expression that is a
Anyone? Yes, Marykane? number on its own.
Correct. What else? Yes, Raul? It has no variable and its value does not
change.
Very good. Now who can give me an
example of a constant? Yes, Marjorie? 15 Ma’am.
Very good. What else have you
learned from our previous topic?
Yes, Shiela Cynthia? The concept of letters and variables, Ma’am.
Very good.
And what about this concept? What A variable is a symbol usually letters that
does it mean? Yes, Kristine? represents a value or a number.
Very good. And what are the uses of
these variables in some mathematical
sentences or phrases? Yes, Rager? They are used to represent the unknowns.
Very good. Yes, variables or letters in
a mathematical sentence are used to
represent the unknowns.
For example:
Let x be any real number. Find the
value of the expression 3x if;
a. x = 5 If x=5, then 3x = 3(5) = 15.

b. x = ⁄ If x=1⁄2, then 3x = 3(1⁄2) = ⁄

c. x = -0.25 If x=-0.25 then 3x = 3(-0.25) = -0.75

Very good, class. Letters such as x, y,

n and etc. do not always have specific
values assigned to them so in that
case we will just simply think of them
as any number. Is it understood? Yes, Ma’am.
Are there any other concepts with
regards to our previous topic? The equal sign Ma’am.
Yes, Heartzeal?
Yes, very good. Equal signs do not only refers to getting an
What about the equal sign? answer to an operation but it also mean that
Will you share it to us, Alvin? expressions on either side have equal value.
Very good.
Just like for example class if I will give
you this expressions;
a. 69 – 3 = ___ + 2 64 Ma’am, because 69-3 = 66 and 64+2 = 66.
b. 27 x 2 = 60 - ___ 6 Ma’am, because 27x2 = 54 and 60-6 = 54.
Very good. Now, anymore
clarifications or questions with regards
to our past lesson? None, Ma’am.
There is none. So, did you understand
clearly now our previous topic? Yes, Ma’am.
Very good.
B. Motivation
Before we proceed to our next topic,
let us have first an activity, a group
activity.
Now, you will have to form your group
according to the color of your name
tags. Now, those belong to color
yellow will occupy this side on my
right, next at the back will be color
green, at my left side is the blue group
and at the back of them will be color
pink.
You may now go to your respective
groups. Please vacate from your seats
quietly and avoid unnecessary noise.
Am I understood class? Yes, Ma’am.
Are you in your group now? Yes, Ma’am
Okay, form a circle so that you will be
facing each other. After that, you have
to select a leader, a secretary and a
reporter in each group.
Okay you may start now selecting.
Are you done? Yes, Ma’am
Leaders you may come here in front to
get the necessary materials.
And now, who wants to read the
directions? Yes, Alfie Jay? a. Find these following words written below
inside the box.
b. Just draw a line to connect the letters of
words you have found.
Is it understood class? Yes, Ma’am.
Please read carefully the instructions
once again in your activity sheets so
that you can follow it correctly. If you
have questions just raise your right
hand.
Now, I will only give you three minutes
to answer. Finish or unfinished you
have to post your output on the board.
After that, the assigned reporter of
each group will present the output.
Since this is a group activity, and I
know very well that “Two heads are
better than one,” so this will become
easier for you if each of you will
cooperate. Am I right? Yes, Ma’am.
Okay, you may start now. Please
behave class. Do not make
unnecessary noise for us not to
disturb another class.

you encounter in our previous activity,
because, it is really necessary for our
next lesson.
And so, we will now proceed to our next
topic.

C. Lesson Proper
Now who can guess what will be our topic
for today? Do you have any idea? Yes,
Jelly Mae? Polynomials Ma’am?
Very good.
Our lesson for today is all about
polynomials and its classification
according to the number of terms and
according to its degree.
I think you already are familiar with the
terms now, because, they were included in
our word hunt a while ago.
But before we proceed to the discussion of
our new topic, let us first know our lesson
objectives for this day.
Here are our objectives, class. At the end of the period, students will be
Will you please read one, yes, Cesa? able to;
1. identify the base, coefficient, terms and
exponents in a given polynomials.
The next one, yes, Eric? 2. give examples of polynomials
The last one, yes, Jules? 3. participate actively in class discussion
and different learning activities.
Are our objectives made clear to you? Yes, Ma’am.
Now, let’s proceed.
Once again class, what is our topic for
today? Polynomials Ma’am…
Very good. By the way, do you know what
a polynomial is? Do you have any idea?
But before we are going to define what a
polynomial really is, let us first tackle the
different terminologies with regards to this
matter.
I have here an example of an algebraic
expression.
Example
Based on this given example, can you
identify what are the given terms here?
Yes, can you name one Jeff Lloyd? Ma’am.
Yes., very good.
Another one? Yes, Alren? −x Ma’am.
Correct. Another term? Yes, Flordeliza? 5 Ma’am.
Very good. Now how many terms are there
all in all? Yes, Hannah Grace? 3 terms Ma’am.
And what are those once again? Yes, Jarl
Elton? They are , -x, and 5 Ma’am.
Very good.
Now, how did you come up with such
answers class? Did you know already
what a term is? No Ma’am it’s just a guess.
A guess? Well, very good guess class! But
for you to be able to understand it clearly
let us define what really a term is. Will you A term is a constant, a variable or a
please read the definition Mishiela? product of a constant and variable.
Yes, thank you.
A term is a constant. Can you still recall Yes, Ma’am, it is a number on its own and
what a constant is? Yes, Raul? has no variable.
Very good. From the given example what
is the constant here? Yes, Jackyneth? 5 Ma’am.
Very good.
Now, based on the definition, a term can
also be a variable. By the way, what is a
variable, once again? We had discussed it
from our review a while ago. Yes, Erica? A variable is a symbol usually letters which
represents a value or a number.
Very good. Now based on this example,
what is the given variable here? Yes, Ana
Mae? x Ma’am.
Very good.
Now, in a term class, there is also what we
call the numerical coefficient. Based in
your own understanding, what part of a
term that can be called as the numerical It is the number part Ma’am?
coefficient? Yes, Jael?
Yes. Because when we say numerical it
refers to the number itself that is found in a
term, right? With the given example, in the
first term , what is the numerical
coefficient here? Yes, Grace? 3 Ma’am.
Very good. How about in the second term
which is –x, do we have any numerical
coefficient here? None Ma’am.
Are you sure? Yes Ma’am
Always take note class that variables or
letters which do not have any
corresponding numerical coefficients,
always have a numerical coefficient which
is 1. Always remember that. And since in
this example which is –x, we had a
numerical coefficient which is what? -1 Ma’am.
Very good.
Another thing is that a term also, class,
has what we call a literal coefficient? Do
you know what a literal coefficient is? Yes, Ma’am.
Then what is it class? Who can define
what a literal coefficient is? Yes? It is the variable including its exponent.
Yes, that’s correct. Based on the given
example again , what is the given
literal coefficient here? Yes, Alvin? It’s Ma’am.
Very good. And what is the base? The variable x Ma’am.
And the exponent? It’s 2 Ma’am.
Very good. The exponent is the number It determines on how many times a
that is written upright a variable. It usually number or a variable would be multiplied
determines what? Yes, Dante? by itself.
Now, moving on, algebraic expression has
also its degree. Now how to determine its
degree? Do you have any idea? None Ma’am.
Well, we can determine its degree through Degree is the highest exponent or highest
its exponent. Now, will you please read the sum of exponents of the variables in a
definition of the degree, Julie Ann? term.
Yes. The degree is the highest exponent
or highest sum of exponents.
Based on this example, , what
is its degree? Yes, Alfie Jay? 2 Ma’am.
Yes, very good since 2 is the highest
exponent of this given expression.
Now, let us have another example.
.
How many terms do we have class? 2 Ma’am.
Yes, it has 2 terms. Can you identify the
first term? Yes, Grace?
How about the second term? Yes, Joyce?

Very good. Now that you have already

identified the two terms, what is the degree
of this given expression? Yes, Gene John? 7 Ma’am.
Is he correct? Yes, Ma’am.
Will you please explain why, Daphne? Because according to the definition that a
degree is the highest exponent or highest
 sum of exponents of the variables in a
term. Since the second term has the larger
exponents so we simply add the
exponents which are 4 and 3 to come up
with the answer which is 7.
Very good.
Did you understand class? Yes, Ma’am.
Now, another terminology also that can be
found in an algebraic expression is the
similar term. Now, when we say similar
what does it mean? Yes, Maris? They are alike or the same or equal.
Very good.
Well you know already what a term is, and
what’s the meaning of similar is. Now who
can give me an example of a similar term?
Anybody from the group? Yes, Raul? and .
Very good. That’s correct. Now what have
you noticed? Why are they called similar
terms? Yes, Faith Joyce? They have the same literal coefficient.
Yes, you are right. Similar terms do have
the same literal coefficients.
Now, how about this following example. Not similar Ma’am because they have
5x and , are they similar or not? different literal coefficient.
Very Good.
Now since we are through discussing Polynomial is a kind of algebraic
different terminologies with regards to expression where each term is a constant,
algebraic expressions, now we’ll go back a variable or a product of a constant and
to the definition of a polynomial which is variable in which the variable has a whole
our topic for this day. Who will read its number (non-negative number) exponent.
definition? Yes, Rager Mae?
Yes. A polynomial is a kind of an algebraic
expression.
But take note class, all polynomials are
algebraic expressions but not all algebraic
expressions are polynomials.
Here are some examples of algebraic
expressions which cannot be considered
as polynomial:
⁄
1. , why is this
example cannot be considered as Because its exponent is not a whole
polynomial? Yes, Loribel? number and it is a fraction.

Very good.
Now another example, who will answer
example no. 2? Why is it that this example
could not be considered as polynomial?
Yes, Kristine Jeck? Because the variable is inside the radical
2. √ sign.

Very good.
It cannot be considered as polynomial if
the variable is inside the radical sign. By
the way, where is the radical sign here?
Yes, Evan Marie? The square root sign Ma’am.
Yes, very good.
And what variable that can be found inside
it? Yes, Hannah Grace? It’s the variable x.
Very good. Now, who wants to answer
example no. 3? Yes, Ana Mae?
 This expression cannot be considered as

3. polynomial because the variable is in the

denominator which is x.

Probably, yes, every algebraic expression

that has a variable in the denominator
cannot be called as polynomial.

Am I clear, class? Yes, Ma’am.

Are you sure? Is there any clarification or
question? You may raise your questions
now. If there is none so let’s proceed.
And so, let’s move on. Polynomials are
classified into two. Do you know what
those are? We don’t know Ma’am.
Well, you must listen carefully class. First
classification is according to the number of
terms.
You know already how to determine if how
many terms are there in a given
polynomial, right? Yes, Ma’am.
There are four kinds of polynomials Polynomials according to the number of
terms can either be;
according to the number of terms. Now
a) monomial
please read, Jenathan. b) binomial
c) trinomial
d) multinomial
Okay, thank you.
You may now take your seat. I have here
examples of polynomials, Tell me what
kind of polynomials are the following and
explain why, okay? Yes, Ma’am.
Who will answer no. 1? Yes, Marjorie?
 1. Monomial Ma’am.

Why did you say that it is monomial? Because it has only one term Ma’am and
from the term monomial, its prefix is mono
which means one. So the answer is
monomial.
Okay, very good. Did you understand
her explanation class? Yes, Ma’am.
Okay, very good. Did you understand
her explanation class?
2. Binomial Ma’am.

That’s correct. How did you come up to The polynomial has two terms so from the
your answer? prefix bi which means 2 so the answer is
binomial.
Very good. And the next one? Yes, Roy? Trinomial Ma’am because from the prefix
tri that means 3, and the polynomial given
3.
has 3 terms so it is a trinomial Ma’am.

Yes, you’re right. Okay, for the last

example? Yes, Reymark?
4. √ It is a multinomial Ma’am.

And why is it a multinomial? Because it has four or more terms which

means multi or poly so the answer is
multinomial.
Very good. Well, was it made clear to you
class, regarding with the classification of
polynomials according to the number of
terms? Yes, ma’am.
Very good. Just make sure class that you
understand our lesson very well because
later we will have an activity with regards
to this matter. Am I clear? Yes, Ma’am.
Now, let’s go to the next the second
classification of polynomials which is the, Classification according to its degree,
yes, Marjorie? Ma’am.
Very good.  Kinds of polynomial according to the
Now here are the classifications of degree are:
polynomials according to its degree. Will 1. constant
you please read, Shiela Cynthia? 2. linear
3. quadratic
4. cubic
5. quartic
6. quantic
Yes, these are the kinds of polynomial
according to the degree.
Now, I have here some examples. Just
label them using the kind of polynomials
according to the degree.
Is it understood class? Yes, Ma’am.
Examples:
1. 50 = ________________ A constant, polynomial od degree 0.

2. 2x + 1 = ________________ Linear, a polynomial of degree 1.

3. = ________________ Quadratic, a polynomial of degree 2.

4. = ________________ Cubic, a polynomial of degree 3.

 5. =___________ Quartic, a polynomial of degree 4

Quintic a polynomial of degree 5

6. =_______________

Polynomial of degree 8.
7. =___________

So far, the next degrees just like the

example no. 7 have no universal name yet
so they are just called a polynomial of
degree _8_ and so on.
Did I make sense, class? Yes, Ma’am.
Now, another term that can be associated
in the study of polynomials is the
Standard Form. Now, when can we say
class that a polynomial is in its Standard
Form? Do you have any idea? We don’t have any idea Ma’am.
I know this is not the first time that you
have encountered this certain expressions
or polynomials to be exact. Have you
noticed class how it is usually written?

Or specifically, how it is being arranged? The terms are being arranged Ma’am from
Yes, Mishiela? the highest up to the lowest degree.
Yes, very well said Jessie.
A polynomial is in its standard form if the
terms are arranged from the highest up to
its lowest degree.
For example: Yes, Ma’am because the terms are
Is it in its standard form class? arranged from the highest up to the lowest
degree.
Another example: ,
who will go to the board and indicate what
its standard form is? Yes, Ayne Jane?
Very good.
Now it is already in its standard form, who
can identify what is the Leading Term
here? Take note of the word that is being
used which is leading. Now, can you tell
me Alvin what is the leading term here?

Why is it so? Because when we say leading Ma’am, it

simply means the first or the top, in this
polynomial since it is already in its
standard form and comes first, it
becomes the leading coefficient.
Very good.
Aside from the leading term, what is its
Leading Coefficient?
Take note also of this, when we mention
coefficient it only refers to the numerical
coefficient alone.

So what is its leading coefficient, class? -19 Ma’am.

And why is that so? Yes, Loribel? Since is the leading term so its
numerical coefficient is also the leading
coefficient.
Very good.
And lastly class, what will be the degree of The degree is 4 Ma’am because it is the
this polynomial? Yes, Julie Ann? exponent of the leading term.
Very well said.

D. Generalization
Now, Do you have any clarifications class? None, Ma’am
Did you understand our lesson for today? Yes, Ma’am.
Well, let us see if you understand clearly
our lesson for today, I have some
questions for you. For me to check it out if
how well did you understand our lesson.
Let’s start.
What was our lesson all about?
Yes, Aljun? It is all about polynomial Ma’am.
Now what was all about polynomials? Polynomial is a kind of an algebraic
Yes? expression where its term is a constant, a
variable or a product of a constant and
variable.
By the way, what is a term? Yes, Regil A term is a constant, a variable or a
Jean? product of a constant and variable.
When we say constant, what does it refers It refers to the term that is a number on its
to? Yes, Ana Mae? own and has no variable.
Very good. And what about the variable? A variable is a symbol usually letters which
What is it all about? Yes Marjorie? represents a number or a value.
What other characteristics does a
polynomial have? Yes, Raul? Polynomial has two classifications Ma’am.
And what are those? Yes, Alren? Polynomials can be classified according to
the number of terms Ma’am.
Very good. How about the other one, yes, Can be classified also according to the
Grace? degree, Ma’am.
Very good.
Now what are their classifications According to the number of terms we have
according to the number of terms? Yes, monomial, binomial, trinomial and
Dante? polynomial or multinomial.
Very good. They are constant, linear, quadratic, cubic,
How about its classification according to quartic, quintic and polynomial of degree
the degree? Yes, Reymark? ____, Ma’am if its degree is higher than 5.

Very good.
In what instance can a polynomial be If the terms are arranged from the highest
considered as in its standard form? Yes, up to the lowest degree.
Jackyneth?
Correct. If a polynomial is in its standard It’s the first term Ma’am.
form, which will become the leading term?
Yes, Angel?
And the Leading coefficient will be? The numerical coefficient of the leading
term.
Very good.
Since, you already understand our lesson
for today, let’s move on, class.
