A. Preliminary Activities
Greetings
Good afternoon class. Good afternoon Sir.

Checking of Attendance
Is there any absent for today? There is no absent for today.

Review
What was our topic last meeting? It is about Commutative Property of
Addition.
Very Good! What is
Commutative Property of
Addition? Commutative Property of Addition
states that changing the order of the
addends does not change the sum.
Very well said! Give him “Yes
Clap”! Yes!

Vocabulary
Again, let us review what are
Addends? Addends are numbers used in an
addition problem

What is Sum? Sum is the result or the total of adding

two or more numbers.

I have here some exercises and

kindly give the sum.
a. 7 + 9 = 7 + 9 = 16
b. 9 + 7 = 9 + 7 = 16
 c. 10 + 2 = 10 + 2 = 12
d. 2 + 10 = 2 + 10 = 12

B. Developmental Activities
Motivation
I have here a Box of Numbers.
Inside the box are number cards
from one (1) to ten (10). Each
group will need to pick three (3) [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10]
number cards that the sum of
these three cards is equal to the
number that I will be giving.

The sum of three numbers is 17. 3, 6 and 8

The sum of three numbers is 18. 1, 7 and 10
The sum of four numbers is 20. 2, 4, 5 and 9

Give the Yes clap. Yes!

Presentation of the Lesson

Let’s say that I have 3 numbers:
3, 6 and 8, we are going to put a
parenthesis on the first and
second addends. Outside of this,
we will write the third addend. (3+6)+8
9 + 8 = 17
Now, we will change the
position of the parenthesis by
putting it in the second and third
addends. 3+(6+8)
3 + 14 = 17
Now what if I will put 3 and 8
inside the parenthesis first then
add 6 outside. (3+8)+6
11 + 6 = 17
Do you think that we will get the
same answer? Yes Sir! We will get the same answer.

I have 3 numbers: 1, 7 and 10,

we are going to put a parenthesis
on the first and second addends.
Outside of this, we will write the
third addend. ( 1 + 7 ) + 10
8 + 10 = 18
Now, we will change the
position of the parenthesis by
putting it in the second and third
addends.
1 + ( 7 + 10)
1 + 17 = 18
Now what if I will put 1 and 10
inside the parenthesis first then
add 7 outside. ( 1 + 10 ) + 7
11 + 7 = 18
Do you think that we will get the
same answer? Yes, we will get the same answer.

Let’s say that I have 4 numbers:

2, 4, 5 and 9, we are going to put
a parenthesis on number 2 and 4.
Outside of this, we will write the
5 and 9. (2+4)+5+9
6 + 5 + 9 = 20
Now, we will change the
position of the parenthesis by
putting it in the second and third
addends. 2+(4+5)+9
2 + 9 + 9 = 20
Now, we will change the
position of the parenthesis by
putting it in the third and fourth
addends. 2+4(5+9)
2 + 4 + 14 = 20
Now what if I will put the
parenthesis on the first and
second addends and the put again
another parenthesis to the third
and fourth addends. (2+4)+(5+9)
6 + 14 = 20
Do you think that we will get the
same answer? Yes, we will get the same answer.

Fixing Skills
Group the addends and find the
sum.
a. 9 + 3 + 15 = ( 9 + 3 ) + 15 =
12 + 15 = 27
9 + ( 3 + 15) =
9 + 18 = 27
 b. 16 + 5 + 2 = ( 16 + 5 ) + 2 =
21 + 2 = 23
16 + ( 5 + 2 ) =
16 + 7 = 23

c. 8 + 11 +14 = ( 8 + 11 ) +14 =
19 + 14 = 33
8 + ( 11 + 14) =
8 + 25 = 33

d. 7 + 10 + 4 = ( 7 + 10 ) + 4 =
17 + 4 = 21
7 + ( 10 + 4 ) =
7 + 14 = 21

e. 5 + 9 + 15 ( 5 + 9 ) + 15 =
14 + 15 = 29
5 + ( 9 + 15 ) =
5 + 24 = 29

Application
We will divide the class into 2
groups. Each group will receive a
folder containing 8 cards. Each
group will need to find the
correct pair of cards. There are 4
pairs or correct answers.
Group 1

20+13 = 9+24 7+9 = 2+14 (2+5)+9 = 7+9 = 2+14

33 = 33 16 = 16 2+(5+9) 16 = 16

(8+13)+21 = (9+11)+13 = (8+13)+21 = 21+21 = 8+34

8+(13+21) 9+(11+13) 8+(13+21) 42 = 42

21+21 = 8+34 19+6 = 11+14 (9+11)+13 = 20+13 = 9+24

42 = 42 25 = 25 9+(11+13) 33 = 33

(2+5)+9 = (11+8)+6 = (11+8)+6 = 19+6 = 11+14

2+(5+9) 11+(8+6) 11+(8+6) 25 = 25
 Group 2

20+13 = 9+24 7+9 = 2+14 (2+5)+9 = 7+9 = 2+14

33 = 33 16 = 16 2+(5+9) 16 = 16

(8+13)+21 = (9+11)+13 = (8+13)+21 = 21+21 = 8+34

8+(13+21) 9+(11+13) 8+(13+21) 42 = 42

21+21 = 8+34 19+6 = 11+14 20+13 = 9+24

(9+11)+13 =
42 = 42 25 = 25 33 = 33
9+(11+13)

(2+5)+9 = (11+8)+6 = (11+8)+6 = 19+6 = 11+14

2+(5+9) 11+(8+6) 11+(8+6) 25 = 25

C. Generalization
What is Associative Property of
Addition?
Very Good! And how are the
numbers grouped together?
Associative Property of Addition states
that changing the groupings of the
addends does not change the sum.
This states that you can add regardless
of how the numbers are grouped.
They were grouped together using the
parenthesis. Either we put the
parenthesis on the first and second
addends and then copy the third addend
and find the sum. Or copy the first
addend and put the parenthesis on the
second and third addend and find the
sum.

IV. Evaluation
Write the missing numbers. The following items show Associative Property of
Addition.

________ + 25 = 13 + ________
______ = ______
 2. ( 11 + 16 ) + 21 = 11 + ( 16 + 21 )
________ + 21 = 11 + ________
______ = ______

3. ( 16 + 17 ) + 18 = 16 + ( 17 + 18 )

______ = ______

4. ( 15 + 18 ) + 20 = 15 + ( 18 + 20 )

______ = ______

5. ( 12 + 19 ) + 26 = 12 + ( 19 + 26 )
________ + 26 = 12 + ________
______ = ______

V. Homework
Group the addends and find the sum.
