 I. OBJECTIVE
At the end of the lesson, the students must be able to:
1. Describe the set of integers.
2. Use integers in real-life situations.
3. Locate the integers on the number line.
II. SUBJECT MATTER
Topic: Introduction on Integers
Reference: Math Counts Textbook by Jeannette Hilot
Materials: PowerPoint Presentation, chalk, blackboard, whiteboard marker,
whiteboard, laptop, pointer, LED.
III. PROCEDURE
TEACHER’S ACTIVITY STUDENT’S ACTIVITY
A. PREPARATION
1. Greetings:
Good morning, class.
Good morning, Sir!
How’s your day?
Our day started well Sir.
2. Prayers
Let us stand together and pray.
President could you lead the prayer?
Yes, Sir
3. Checking of attendance
Secretary, may I know who is absent
today?
Sir, I’m glad to say that no one is absent
today.
Thank you, you may now take your
seat.

4. Review
Before we proceed to our next
lesson, let’s see if you still know
your basic operations.

First of all, what are the four basic

operations?
Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication,
Division.
Very good. I prepared a short
activity for you to answer. I will now
explain the mechanics. Listen
carefully, okay?
Yes, sir!
We have a table here. All you need
to do is to complete the table by
filling the blanks with the appropriate
number or operation.

As you can see, columns 1 and 3

are the numbers which you will
perform the operation with, column 2
is the operation, and column 4 is the
answer.
 1 4 5

We have an example here.

What operation can we perform with

1 and 4 to get 5?
Addition, sir.
Let’s check.

1 + 4 5

1 plus 4 is equal to 5. Since it

checks out, you are correct. Very
good.

It seems that you understand the

mechanics. I will give you 2 minutes
to answer. Answer it on your
notebook.

You may now begin.

(students start answering)
1 + 4 5
1 + 4 5
× 3 12
4 × 3 12
9 3 6
9 + 3 6
49 ÷ 7
49 ÷ 7 7
23 + 45
23 + 45 68
45 - 22
45 - 23 22

B. MOTIVATION

To start our lesson for today, I

prepared another activity. Before we
proceed. I will divide the class in 3
groups.

(assigns the groups)

You may now go to your groups.

(students group themselves)
Since everyone are on their group.
 Positive Negative
Phrases Phrases

Take a look on our table here.

- Eighteen degrees
below zero
- Ninety feet below
sea level
- Gained five pounds
- Decreased by seven
points
- Lost thirty pesos
- Fifty meters above
ground
- Lost three pounds
- Two steps backward
- Twenty-seven
degrees above zero
- Six steps forward
- Increased by ten
points
- Earned 100 pesos

As you can see, there are two

categories, positive phrases and the
negative phrases. All you need to do
is sort the phrases that will be given
to you. You have 3 minutes to do so.

Did you understand? Yes, sir!

You may now begin. (Students answer the activity)

Wow, your answers are all correct.

Now, based on the activity, what do
you think our lesson will be? About positive and negative numbers.

That’s correct, to be precise, our

lesson for today is about integers.

C. PRESENTATION

Integers are a fundamental number

system in mathematics, consisting of
all whole numbers and their negative
counterparts, including zero.

Unlike rational or real numbers,

integers do not include fractions or
decimal numbers; they are discrete
values that can be counted
individually.

As you already know, we use the

symbol Z to denote the set of
integers.

Formally, integers can be defined as

the set:

Z={…,−3,−2,−1,0,1,2,3,…}

Based on the set, what can you infer

or observe? What does the set
consists of?
It consists of positive and negative
numbers.

That’s right, but it seems we are

forgetting something. What is it? The 0?

Yes, the 0. Very good.

There are three types of numbers in

the integers.

First, we have the Positive Integers.

These are numbers greater than
zero, often called natural numbers.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, …
Give me an example of a positive
number.

Very good!

We can also use the symbol Z+ to

denote positive integers.

Next are the Negative Integers.

These are numbers less than zero.
-1, -2, -3, -4, -5, …
Name some of the negative
numbers.

Okay, very good!

We can also use the symbol Z- to

denote positive integers.

And lastly, the zero (0). A special

integer that is neither positive nor
negative.
Yes, sir.
Can you still follow?

Integers can also be located along

the number line which provides a
visual representation of their
positions.

Take note that opposite integers

have equal distances from zero but
are located on opposite sides of
zero.

The black dot represents a negative

integer, while the unshaded dot
represents its opposite positive
integer. They have the same
distance from zero but are
positioned on opposite sides.

Try to plot the following integers.

1) -6
2) 4
3) 3
 4) 1
5) -2

Okay, you are all correct. It seems

that you all understand our lesson.

D. APPLICATION
For your activity, do the following
task.

The following table shows us the

deepest parts of the ocean. Express
the locations of the deepest parts of
the ocean in integers and arrange
them from deepest to shallowest.

Location Depth
Izu-Ogasawara 9 km below sea
Trench level
Japan Trench 10 km below
sea level
Kermadec 10 km below
Trench sea level
Mariana Trench 12 km below
sea level
Philippine 11 km below
Trench sea level

E. GENERALIZATION

To sum up our lesson, let’s recall the

concepts we have tackled for today.

Okay, very good.

That’s correct, very good.

Who can tell me what kind of These are numbers greater than zero,

 That’s right. Very good.

It seems that you are all listening

well.
