Dear Volunteer Teacher,

The lesson plan provides an overall picture of what you need to teach. It is recommended that you follow the objectives and the learning outcomes stated in the lesson plan.

We suggest that that you read the chapter thoroughly and research on how to teach the topic effectively to meet the learning outcomes.

Kindly note, while the lesson plan is a guide to teach, you can also add your own teaching elements to enhance the learning process of the children.

lesson Plan version 1.1 activities

1. Using your foot as a unit of length, measure the length and breadth of the classroom.

It is possible that while measuring these you may find some part remains to be measured as it is smaller than your foot. Use a string to measure the length of a part of your foot as you did before.

2. Work in a group and each of you use your handspan as a unit to measure the width of a table or a desk in the classroom.

3. Ask your classmate to stand with his back against a wall. Make a mark on the wall exactly above his head. Now, measure the distance from the floor to this mark on the wall with your handspan and then with a metre scale.

4. Use a thread to measure the length of the curved line AB. Put a knot on the thread near one of its ends. Place this knot on the point A. Now, place a small portion of the thread along the line, keeping it taut using your fingers and thumb. Hold the thread at this end point with one hand. Using the other hand, stretch a little more portion of the thread along the curved line. Repeat until B is reached.

Make a mark on the thread where it touches the end B. Now stretch the thread along a metre scale.

Measure the length between the knot in the beginning and the final mark on the thread. This gives the length of the curved line AB.

5. Spread a large sheet of white paper on the ground and keep a little sugar on it. Ants are likely to be attracted to the sugar and you will find many ants crawling on the sheet of paper soon. For any one ant, try and make a small mark with a pencil near its position when it has just crawled on to the sheet of paper. Keep marking its position after a few seconds as it moves along on the sheet of paper. After some time, shake the paper free of the sugar and the ants. Connect the different points you have marked, with arrows, to show the direction in which the ant was moving.
