Activity 1. **
Description:
In this activity, you will model the square of a binomial through paper folding. Investigate the pattern
that can be produced in this activity. This pattern will help you find the square of a binomial easily. You
can do this individually or with a partner.

Observation/Insights
I felt blessed that I have been to Singapore for 3 days last year courtesy of my wife because she was
invited by her cousin who lived and work there together with her husband and their two kids. During
those times of my visit I was really impressed on Singapore’s urban planning. It seems everything were
patiently planned and designed in such a way that every square meter of their total land area was
properly utilized. Their office buildings, Industrial sites, housings, recreation centers, malls, botanical
gardens, tourist destinations (etc.) were carefully arranged in strategic places to maximize the efficiency
of their transportation system (especially the MRT and LRT System) and thereby getting fast and easy
transport from one point of destination to another. It also avoids waste of time from traffic going to
their workplaces to and fro.
Not counting their Changi International Airport which is one of the best in the world. What an
impressive feat for a tiny island nation like Singapore, only one third the size of the total land area of
Davao City. How I wish our beloved country would achieve what Singapore has reached today or
perhaps surpassed them in terms of economic success. I think the K to 12 program of DepEd is a big step
forward on realizing that dream, guiding and preparing school kids to become advance learners and be
highly competitive in their chosen field while molding others to become our future leaders and good
decision makers someday taking the reign and make our nation great.

DepEd Order No. 73, s 2012
GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR THE ASSESSMENT AND RATING OF LEARNING OUTCOMES
Level of Assessment Percentage Weight
Knowledge 15%
Process or Skills 25%
Understanding(s) 30%
Products/Performance 30%
Total 100%
The levels of assessments are defined as follows;
1. Knowledge - the substantive content of the curriculum, the facts and information that the
students acquire.
2. Process – skills of cognitive operations that the student performs on the facts and information for
the purpose of constructing meaning and understandings.
3. Understandings – enduring big ideas, principles and generalizations inherent to the discipline,
which may be assessed using the facets of understanding or other indications of understanding
which may be specific to the discipline.
4. Products/Performance – real life applications of understanding as evidenced by the student’s
performance of authentic tasks.
The level of proficiency at which the students is performing shall be based on a numerical value which is
arrived at after summing up the results of the student’s performance on the assessments. The numerical
values are as follows:
Level of Proficiency Equivalent Numerical Value
Beginning 74% and above
Developing 75 – 79%
Approaching Proficiency 80 – 84%
Proficient 85 – 89
Advanced 90% above
Note: All the assessment rating calculations are based only on my own understanding of DepEd Order no. 73 s
2012. Any comments, suggestions or correction for the improvement of this project/assignment are very much
welcome.
