1. Peter sells ice cream for a living. On Monday his revenue was 150 dollars. On Tuesday,
his revenue was 100 dollars. Finally, on Wednesday, his revenue was 50 dollars. How
much is Peter’s revenue so far?
To find Peter's total revenue so far, we need to add up his revenues from Monday, Tuesday,
and Wednesday:
Total Revenue = Monday's revenue + Tuesday's revenue + Wednesday's revenue
Total Revenue = $150 + $100 + $50
Total Revenue = $300
2. John has 800 dollars in his checking account. He received from his job a check for
1,200 dollars and deposit the amount in his checking account. How much money does
he have in his checking after the deposit?
To calculate John's balance in his checking account after the deposit, we need to add the
amount of the check to his current balance:
Checking Account Balance = Current balance + Deposit amount
Checking Account Balance = $800 + $1,200
Checking Account Balance = $2,000
Therefore, after the deposit, John will have $2,000 in his checking account.

1. Melvin harvested 179 mangoes. Christian harvested 59 mangoes less than Melvin.
How many mangoes did Christian harvest?
Melvin harvested 179 mangoes. Christian harvested 59 mangoes less than Melvin.
To find the number of mangoes Christian harvested, we subtract 59 from Melvin's harvest:
Christian's harvest = Melvin's harvest - 59
Christian's harvest = 179 - 59
Christian's harvest = 120
2. Tina and Clara have a total savings of $950. Clara saved $99 more than Tina. How
much did each student save?
Tina and Clara have a total savings of $950. Clara saved $99 more than Tina.
Let's assume Tina's savings as x dollars. Clara's savings would be x + $99.
We can set up the equation:
Tina's savings + Clara's savings = Total savings
x + (x + $99) = $950
Combining like terms:
2x + $99 = $950
So, Tina saved $425.50 and Clara saved $425.50 + $99 = $524.50.
3. Ramon has $670. He spent $159 on food, $135 for his fare, $280 for his project and
saved the rest. How much did he save?
Ramon has $670. He spent $159 on food, $135 for his fare, $280 for his project, and saved
the rest.
To find how much Ramon saved, we need to subtract his expenses from his initial amount:
Amount saved = Ramon's initial amount - (food expenses + fare expenses + project expenses)
Amount saved = $670 - ($159 + $135 + $280)
Amount saved = $670 - $574
Amount saved = $96
4. Catrina spent $250 for her cosmetics, $380 for her dress and $200 for her sandals.
How much did she spent?
Catrina spent $250 for her cosmetics, $380 for her dress, and $200 for her sandals.
To find the total amount Catrina spent, we need to add up her expenses:
Total amount spent = Cosmetics expenses + Dress expenses + Sandals expenses
Total amount spent = $250 + $380 + $200
Total amount spent = $830

1. Peter has 20 dollars in his pocket. He buys a 32 ounces vanilla ice cream for 8 dollars.
How much is Peter’s change?
Peter has 20 dollars in his pocket. He buys a 32-ounce vanilla ice cream for 8 dollars. To find
Peter's change, we subtract the cost of the ice cream from the amount he has in his pocket:
Change = Amount in pocket - Cost of ice cream
Change = $20 - $8
Change = $12
2. Suppose that a car dealer has an inventory of 15,258 Honda Accord they have to sell
by the end of 2008. Suppose they don’t meet their goals and sell only 12456 Honda
Accord by the end of 2008. How many cars are left in the back yard?
The car dealer had an inventory of 15,258 Honda Accord cars. They sold only 12,456 Honda
Accord cars by the end of 2008. To find the number of cars left in the backyard, we subtract
the number of cars sold from the initial inventory:
Cars left = Initial inventory - Cars sold
Cars left = 15,258 - 12,456
Cars left = 2,802
3. At a local supermarket, a box of cereal usually costs 5.56 dollars. This week, the
supermarket sells the box of cereal for 3.42 dollars. How much money will you save if
you buy this cereal at this supermarket?
The box of cereal usually costs $5.56, but this week it is being sold for $3.42. To find the
amount of money saved, we subtract the discounted price from the regular price:
Money saved = Regular price - Discounted price
Money saved = $5.56 - $3.42
Money saved = $2.14
Therefore, you will save $2.14 if you buy the cereal at this supermarket.

Make a Journal on How to Teach Geometry the Easy Way.
Teaching geometry can be an exciting and visually stimulating experience for both educators
and students. By employing effective strategies and making connections to the real world,
geometry can be taught in a way that is accessible and enjoyable. In this journal, we will
explore key approaches to teaching geometry in an easy-to-understand manner.
Start with Concrete Manipulatives:
Introduce geometry concepts using concrete manipulatives such as pattern blocks, geoboards,
or tangrams. These hands-on materials allow students to explore and manipulate shapes,
fostering a deeper understanding of their properties and relationships.
Use Visual Aids and Real-Life Examples:
Utilize visual aids such as diagrams, charts, and pictures to illustrate geometric concepts.
Relate geometry to real-life examples, such as architecture, nature, or everyday objects, to
help students understand the relevance and practical applications of geometry in their
surroundings.
Engage in Geometric Exploration:
Encourage students to explore geometric concepts through guided discovery activities.
Provide open-ended tasks that allow students to investigate properties of shapes, angles, and
symmetry independently or in groups. This fosters critical thinking, problem-solving, and a
deeper understanding of geometry.
Make Use of Technology:
Incorporate interactive geometry software, apps, or online resources that allow students to
explore and manipulate geometric figures in a virtual environment. These tools provide
dynamic visuals, simulations, and interactive activities, enhancing student engagement and
understanding.
Relate Geometry to Measurement and Patterns:
Highlight the connections between geometry and measurement, as well as geometry and
patterns. Explore how shapes can be measured, compared, and classified based on their
attributes. Connect geometric concepts to patterns and sequences, emphasizing the inherent
order and structure within geometry.
Scaffold Learning:
Break down complex geometric concepts into smaller, manageable parts. Start with simple
shapes and gradually introduce more complex figures. Provide clear explanations, step-by-
step instructions, and examples to scaffold learning and build a solid foundation of geometric
knowledge.
Encourage Communication and Visualization:
Promote mathematical discourse by encouraging students to explain and justify their
geometric reasoning using precise language. Foster visualization skills by asking students to
draw, sketch, or create mental images of geometric figures and transformations.
Provide Opportunities for Hands-On Construction:
Allow students to physically construct and manipulate geometric figures using tools like
rulers, compasses, and protractors. Engage them in activities that involve constructing
triangles, quadrilaterals, and other polygons, reinforcing the properties and relationships of
shapes.
Formative Assessment and Feedback:
Regularly assess student understanding through formative assessments like quizzes, exit
tickets, or brief written responses. Provide timely feedback to address misconceptions and
guide students towards a deeper understanding of geometry concepts.
Connect Geometry to Problem-Solving:
Integrate geometry into problem-solving activities that require students to apply their
knowledge in real-world scenarios. Encourage them to analyze, strategize, and use geometric
reasoning to solve problems, promoting critical thinking and the practical application of
geometry.
Teaching geometry can be made easier and more engaging by incorporating hands-on
materials, visual aids, real-life examples, and technology. By fostering exploration,
visualization, and problem-solving, students can develop a solid understanding of geometric
concepts. Remember to create a supportive learning environment that encourages
communication, critical thinking, and a growth mindset. With these strategies in place,
teaching geometry can become an enjoyable and successful experience for both teachers and

Module 4: Measurement
LESSON 1 Time Measure
Let's Practice
2.The duration of a film show is 3 h and 15 min. It starts at 6:30 p.m. When will it end?
6:30 p.m. + 3 hours = 9:30 p.m.
9:30 p.m. + 15 minutes = 9:45 p.m.
Therefore, the scheduled arrival time of the train was 10:30 a.m.
4.Joseph visited a fashion show. He stayed there for 2 h and 30 min and went back home. If
he reached the fashion show at 8:45 p.m., what time did he leave his house?
8:45 p.m. - 2 hours = 6:45 p.m.
6:45 p.m. - 30 minutes = 6:15 p.m.
Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we convert the 90 minutes to 1 hour and 30
minutes.

Answer the following questions as creatively as possible.
The notion of schedules, deadlines, and appointments would be nonexistent. People would
live in a perpetual present, with no way to distinguish between past, present, or future. The
concept of age would lose its meaning, as there would be no way to measure the passing of
years or track one's lifespan.
Nature would operate purely based on its natural cycles, such as the rising and setting of the
sun or the changing of the seasons. Daily routines would be guided by natural cues rather
than time-specific schedules. People would rely heavily on their instincts and the natural
rhythms of their environment to determine when to sleep, eat, or engage in various activities.
While the absence of time might bring a sense of freedom from deadlines and constraints, it
would also pose significant challenges in terms of coordination, planning, and record-
keeping. Concepts like history, aging, and anticipation would take on entirely new meanings.
The human experience would be fundamentally altered, with a greater focus on the present
moment and a more intuitive connection to the natural world.
2. What if time was not categorized into years, months, hours, minutes and seconds?
If time was not categorized into specific units like years, months, hours, minutes, and
seconds, our understanding and measurement of time would be fundamentally different. The
way we organize and structure our lives would undergo significant changes.
Without these conventional units, our perception of time would likely be more fluid and
subjective. We would rely more on natural cycles, celestial events, and personal experiences
to gauge the passage of time. Seasons, lunar phases, and the movement of celestial bodies
might become the primary references for tracking time.
Daily routines would be based more on natural cues and personal needs rather than precise
measurements. People would have a greater sense of living in the moment, as the pressure of
adhering to rigid schedules or specific timeframes would diminish.
However, it's important to note that the absence of standardized time units could also present
challenges in terms of coordination and synchronization, particularly in a globalized world.
The ability to plan meetings, transportation schedules, or events would become more
complex as there would be no universally agreed-upon units for measuring time.
In such a scenario, individuals and societies might develop alternative ways to organize their
activities. They could adopt more flexible and context-dependent systems based on local
rhythms or communal agreements. Perhaps natural phenomena such as the position of the sun
or the migration patterns of animals would become more prominent reference points for
timekeeping.
Overall, the absence of conventional time categorization would drastically alter our
perception of time and how we structure our lives, leading to a more subjective and adaptable
experience of the passage of time.

LESSON 3 Perimeter
4.A rectangle has a perimeter of 70 cm. Its length is 3 cm more than its width. Find the width of the
rectangle.
Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)
70 cm = 2(Width + Width + 3 cm)
To convert 2 km to meters:
2 km = 2,000 m
Number of complete runs = Distance to cover / Distance covered in one complete run
Number of complete runs = 2,000 m / 420 m
Number of complete runs ≈ 4.76
Therefore, a runner must make approximately 4.76 complete runs around the schoolyard to be

1.a – 54 = 81
To isolate 'a', we can add 54 to both sides of the equation:
a - 54 + 54 = 81 + 54
a = 135
Therefore, a = 135.
2.820 ÷ a = 820
To isolate 'a', we can divide both sides of the equation by 820:
(820 ÷ a) = (820 ÷ 820)
1=1
Since any number divided by itself equals 1, 'a' can take any value in this equation.
3.a × 7 = 875
To isolate 'a', we can divide both sides of the equation by 7:
(a × 7) ÷ 7 = 875 ÷ 7
a = 125
Therefore, a = 125.
4.a ÷ 16 = 16
To isolate 'a', we can multiply both sides of the equation by 16:
(a ÷ 16) × 16 = 16 × 16
a = 256
Therefore, a = 256.
5.136 + a = 381
To isolate 'a', we can subtract 136 from both sides of the equation:
(136 + a) - 136 = 381 - 136
a = 245
Therefore, a = 245.
