LESSON PLANNING OF GEOMETRY BOX

Geometry Box Instruments

Students` Learning Outcomes

• Use protractor, set squares straightedge / ruler to construct square and rectangle with given side(s).

Information for Teachers

Material / Resources

Writing board, chalk / marker, duster, geometry box, textbook

Introduction

• Can anyone tell me that why do we use set-square?
  

 

• Why do we use protractor?
  

 

 

• Do you remember how to draw an angle with protractor as we did for triangles?
• Do you remember how to draw right angle with set-square?
• Take verbal feedback of students and then ask them to draw two right-angles one with protractor and other by using set-square. (Pair Activity)
• Ask pair to exchange their notebooks and check work.
• Then repeat the whole method once verbally.

 

Development

Activity 1

• Collect their attention by asking to close their notebooks, books and just look at you.
• You then say step 1 verbally and draw on board.
• Repeat the step verbally once again to ensure that they understood.
• Do the same for all the steps of drawing rectangle.
  

 

• Make sure you don`t write steps on board just perform it.
• Ask anyone of the students to repeat what you did?
• Then write a question on board and ask them to attempt twice once with rectangle and once with square.(pair work)
• Get checking done by exchanging copies. Make sure they are told to respect each other’s work and just put small ticks or crosses (X)
• Assign another question and ask them to attempt individually.
• Collect copies to be checked by you.
• Hence today we learnt about drawing rectangles. Let`s repeat it together.(then repeat with the students once again)
• Wrap-up the lesson and announce that ‘we will see who does his home work best’.

 

Activity 2

• Similar method will be used for square.
  

 

• Steps to draw square are mentioned abov

Sum up / Conclusion

• Recall process of drawing square and rectangle.

Assessment

• Repeat the key points so further strengthen student`s concepts.

Quadrilateral:

 

^o     A closed figure with four sides and sum of its all interior angles is 360⁰

Square:

 

o   All sides are of the same length.

o   Opposite sides are parallel.

o   There are four right angles.

o   Diagonals are equal

Rectangles:

 

o   Opposite sides are of the same length and parallel.

o   There are four right angles.

o   Consecutive angles are supplementary.

o   Diagonals are equal.

Follow up

• Encourage students to draw square and rectangles using different measurements.
• Assign homework.
