discussion to relate true and false statements. Advise them to
comment on the results and state any difference.

2. Assist student through discussion to perform Activity 2.1
in the student’s Book on identifying a statement. Advise
students to present the group responses. Engage students
through discussion to identify the two types of mathematical
statements, namely; simple mathematical statements and
compound mathematical statements.
3. Introduce to students through discussion to recognize the
truth table using Tables 2.1(a), 2.1(b), and 2.1(c). Design
hands on activities which will enable students to establish
the truth table when given n number of propositions.

4. Use Think-Ink-Pair-Share strategy in introducing the negation
of a statement. Guide students to write statements and negate
them mathematically.
5. Use Example 2.1 in the Student’s Book to guide students
through discussion to draw the truth table. Encourage students
to explore additional resources, such as online tutorials or
reference books, to enrich their understanding and further
practice.

6. For further discussion, instruct students to attempt Exercise
2.1 in the Student’s Book. Advise students to submit their
work, check the correctness of their answers, and provide
them constructive feedback.
