W.A.L.A: AREA AND PERIMETER OF PLANE SHAPES 


Monday  Area  of rectangles and squares Resources 

Content  The area of any given shape is the measure of the extent of a surface. Area is measured in square units. The perimeter of any given shape is the sum of the distance of all the lengths of the sides of that shape.
Examples:  Find the area of a rectangle whose length is 6cm and width 4cm.
A rectangle is 10m long and 7m wide. What is the area? Solution  Area = L X B         = 6cm X 4cm          = 24 cm² Area = L X B          = 10 m X 7 m          = 70 m²
Area of Square  Area of square = L²  or S². where L= length and S = sides
Examples: Calculate the area of these squares with the following sides.  7 cm   9 m Solution  Area = L²           = 7cm X 7cm           = 49cm² Area = S²              = 9m  X 9m                      = 81m²
Pupils should be Able to ; Find the area rectangles and squares 
Begin the lesson by asking the pupils to measure the length and breadth of the squares and rectangles

Weighing balance, scale balance, stones, and bottles.
INTRODUCTION TO METRIC WEIGHT The heaviness of an object tells us what weight is. There are various objects for measuring weight such as the scale balance, the weighing and the spring balance. The basic unit of measuring weight is gram (g). The weight of heavy objects like bags of cement are measured in kilograms while light objects like pen, pencil are weighed in grams.
CONVERSION OF METRIC METRIC WEIGHT 10 milligrams (mg) = 1 centimeter (cg)  10 centigrams = 1 decigrams (dg)  10dg = 1 gram (g)  100cg = 1g 1000g = 1 kilogram (g) 1000kg = 1 ton (t)   Pupils should be Able to ; Define weight, find the various units of measuring weight and with the aid…

Resources  Inside out  Learn   mathematics Book 6, page  35
Ruler, Tape rule, meter rule. 

METRIC LENGTH Length is a measurement that tells how long or wide something is.  In the olden days people measure length of objects by using various parts of the body such as arm, foot, palms etc. But all these does not give accurate measurements.  Today people use instruments like ruler, tape rule, meter tape to accurately measure the length of objects. The standard unit of length measurements s metre (m) 
CONVERSION OF METRIC LENGTH  10 millimetres (mm) = 1 centimeter (cm)  10 centimeters = 1 decimetre (dm)  10dm = 1 meter (m)  1000mm = 1m 100cm = 1m 1000m = 1 kilometer (km)

Subject: MATHEMATICS                        Topic: CAPACITY MEASUREMENT                     

Monday Define capacity measure Convert units of capacity measures
Resources  Inside out  Learn   mathematics Book 6, pages   47 containers, buckets, Gallon, bottles.  INTRODUCTION TO CAPACITY MEASURES  The quantity of liquid a container can hold is known as capacity of the container. For example the amount of water a keg or gallon can hold is the capacity of the keg. 
CONVERSION OF UNITS OF CAPACITY There are various units for measuring the capacity or volume of liquid. The basic ones are the liters (l) and the Milliliter (ml).  Great capacities are measured in liters while small capacities are measure in cubic centimeter (cm³) or milliliters TABLE OF CAPACITY MEASURES 10 milliliters (ml) = 1 centiliter (cl)  10 cl = 1 deciliter (dl)  10 dl = 1 liter (l)  1000 ml = 1 liter 100 cl = 1 liter 1000 l = 1 kiloliter (kl)

Monday
Understand the meaning of Temperature
Read temperature on thermometer Resources  Learn Mathematics Book 5, page 308 Cup, water, containers, flashcards



Introduction to Temperature

The degree of hotness or coldness of a body or object is called its Temperature.
To measure temperature we use the thermometer.
There are two main units to measure temperature. i. the degree Celsius (C) ii. the degree Fahrenheit (f)
Read temperature on thermometer To read the temperature, look at the number or mark beside the top of the shaded column. Note: When the temperature falls below zero degree Celsius, we use negative number and that means it is getting colder. If the temperature rises and the Celsius is increasing in number from zero, then it is getting warmer. 
STARTER Begin the lesson by showing them a video on temperature. Pupils should be able to understand temperature and its meaning.
