III. Procedure:
Teacher’s Activity Student’s Activity
A. Daily Routine
1. Prayer
“Everybody please stand
and let us feel the presence
of our Almighty God.”

(Alexander, kindly lead the

prayer) (In the name of the Father, and of
the Son, and of the Holy Spirit………
2. Greetings AMEN)
“Good morning, class!”

“How are you today?” “Good morning, Ma’am”

3. Classroom Management (Students respond accordingly)

“Before you take your
seats, kindly pick up the
pieces of papers or trash
around you and arrange
your chairs silently and
properly.”
(Students will comply)

4. Checking of Attendance
“Nicole, who is absent
today?” “No one is absent, Ma’am,”

“Thank you, Nicole and

good job, everyone for
being present today!”

B. Review
"Before we dive into our new
lesson, let's recall what we
discussed last meeting. What
 was our last topic?" "Our topic yesterday was about
interpreting and solving problems on
measures of position, ma’am”
"That’s right! So, we calculate,
we interpret and solve
problems of measures of
position in ungrouped or
grouped data.”

"So, in calculating measures of

position we use different
formula for ungrouped and
grouped data depending on
what we tend to compute so
after computing do we
compute the exact data or it’s "It divides the data into ten equal
position?" parts, ma’am."

"Correct! In relation to that, Since deciles divide the data into ten

"Great! If a student's score on "The student performed better than

a test is 48 in the eighth decile 80% of her peers, whose scores are
(D8), what does it mean?" less than or equal to 48."

“Good one!”
C. Motivation
"Before we proceed with our
lesson, let's do a quick game
to energize everyone!”

"I will divide you into three

groups for this game called
‘Pass the Message:
Mathematics Version.’ Instead
of passing a message, you will
pick a math question from this
box. You can either answer it
yourself or pass it to a
groupmate. The last person to
receive the question must go
to the front and present the “Yes, ma’am”
answer. If your group answers
correctly within two minutes,
you win! Are you ready?"

“Okay then let’s start!”

(Questions in the box)

• If Mark got a score of 35,
which is equivalent to the 70th
percentile in a quiz bee
competition, what does it
mean?
 • In an ungrouped data
the scores are
5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,
and 50 what is D3?
• A student calculated D5
and got the same value as P50.
What does this mean?
• If a student’s exam

the position
Expected Answer:
• 70% of the class scored ≤ 35
points, which is Mark’s score.
• D3 = 15
• D3 is the same as P30
• The student performed better
than 30% of his/her classmates,
while 70% of his/her classmates
performed better than the student.
• 70.7

(The student – last member of the

group will explain)
“Why and How did you come • Mark's score of 35 is at the
up with that answer?” 70th percentile, meaning he scored
higher than 70% of his classmates.

• The 3rd decile (D3) is 15, as it

represents the 30th percentile of the
data set.

• D5 and P50 are equal because

both represent the median, where
half of the scores are above and half
are below.

• A student in the 25th

percentile performed better than
25% of classmates, while 75%
scored higher.

• The 7th decile (D7) in a class

of 100 students is at position 70.7.

"Wonderful! Everyone, give

yourselves a round of
applause for doing such
wonderful work!"
D. Presentation of the lesson
"Since we've already finished
interpreting and solving
problems on measures of
position, it's time to apply
what you've learned to a real-
world scenario by formulating
and conducting a Statistical
Mini-Research."

“Research is a way of collecting
evidence.”

“Good idea! So, when you say “Research defined as step-by-step

towards a topic or an issue. A
researcher is someone whose main
concern is to seek for answers to his
questions.”

“Great! But why do we

conduct research? We conduct
research to gain new
knowledge, solve problems,
make informed decisions, and
improve existing ideas or
practices. It helps us

"Now that we know why

research is important, let's
talk about the steps in
formulating a statistical mini-

"Yes! The first step is

"We explain what the data

"Great! Analyzing data is the

"Exactly! The last step is

help us turn numbers into

"Yes, ma’am!"

“As of now, do you have any

we discussed. Sounds good?"
"We interpret the data!"
"Great! First, what do we do
after collecting data?"

"Correct! Then, after

organizing?"
"Exactly! Then what comes
next?"

"And finally?"

"Nice! Let’s try it. Here’s your

dataset:

Teacher Anna wants to identify

the favorite subjects of her 10
students, so she conducted a
survey. The survey shows that
4 students love Math, 2
students love English, 3
students love PE, and 1
student loves Filipino.

"Work with your groupmates "Ma’am, we made a table

organize and present the
data?" "Math, ma’am!"

"Filipino!"

"Most students in this group like

"Great! Now, let’s analyze.

Which subject is the most

"And the least?"

interpret the data for me?" "We learned that research is
important because it helps us find

do you think research is useful
in real life?"

"That’s correct! Research is

health, to even choosing the
best product to buy. So,
always remember, research is
a powerful tool for learning

V. Assignment
Instructions: Conduct a simple statistical mini research

1) Formulate a simple research question related to your daily life or school environment. (Example:
"What is the most preferred snack among Grade 10 students?")
2) Collect data by surveying at least 10 classmates or family members.
3) Organize the data in a simple table.
4) Present the data using a bar graph, pie chart, or any visual representation.
