Math: Fraction - Smart Boards Interactive Lesson

By the end of this session the student should be able to: 

1. Define and identify the numerator and denominator.
2. Understand the concept of equivalent fractions.
3. Understand and define like and unlike fractions. 
4. Understand the concept of a common denominator.
5. Add and subtract fractions.


After this session the students should not only be able to identify a fraction and be able to distinguish between whole numbers and fractions. They identify the numerator and denominator. The lesson later looks at equivalent fractions and mixed fractions, following which the students will get a better idea about equivalent and how to spot them. They will also know how to convert a mixed fraction into improper fraction and vice versa. The chapter also sheds light on addition and subtraction having a common denominator. This will help the students add and subtract the fractions better.

All squares are rectangles, but rectangles are not squares.
Both the sides are right angles form by all the line segments.
Trapezoids, rhombuses, squares and parallelograms,
they belong yes they do. They are quadrilaterals.

Review:
Giving the Area of a Parallelogram

1) Ask pupil to create problems about finding the area of a parallelogram.
2) Teacher call the first player to read the problem he/she prepared. After reading he/she call one of his/her classmate to answer his/her problem.
3) If the answer is correct, the pupil gets a point, it's hi/her turn to call anyone to answer the question he/she prepared.
2. The formula in finding the area of a parallelogram. Area of a Parallelogram = Base x Height
3. A triangle is 2 of a parallelogram; therefore the formula in
finding the area of a triangle is to divide the product of the base and the height by 2.

Area of a Parallelogram - A=bh
Area of a Triangle - A= 1/2 bh or bh/2

Adding and Subtracting Decimals - Math Module, Lesson plan

Adding and Subtracting Decimals - Interactive Whiteboard Resources

Lesson Plan:
Adding and Subtracting Decimals
When we add or subtract decimal numbers, we obtain a decimal number. What technique should we use when we cannot use a calculator?

I. The numbers are written with the same number of decimal places
    We just need to place the digits of the same place values in the same columns.
We correctly line up the digits of the whole numbers. Then, to the right of the decimal point, we place the digits for the tenths under one another, and so on for the hundredths and the other decimals.
Then we can carry out the addition using the normal technique.

II. The numbers are not written with the same number of decimal places
It is always possible to write the decimal numbers with the same number of decimal places by adding zeros to the right of the decimal point.

Thus, 59.8 – 2.934 = 59.800 – 2.934. By laying out the numbers in the same way as before.
Borrow 10 from the digit on the left.
Then we can carry out the subtraction using the normal technique.

Math Module - Finding the Area of a Parallelogram (Pptx)

Finding the Area of a Parallelogram

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral where the opposite sides are congruent and parallel.
A rectangle is a type of parallelogram, but we often see parallelograms that are not rectangles (parallelograms without right angles).

Side AC has the same length as side BD.
Side AB has the same length as side CD.

Any side of a parallelogram can be considered a base.  The height of a parallelogram is the perpendicular distance between opposite bases.
The area formula is A=bh

How do we find the area of a parallelogram?
Remember :
    To find the area of a parallelogram, use the formula
A = b x h


Finding the Area of a Circle - Math Module

Finding the Area of a Circle

How to find the area of a circle?
The area of a circle can be found by multiplying pi ( π = 3.14) by the square of the radius
If a circle has a radius of 9, its area is 3.14 x 9 x 9 = 254.34 square units
If you know the diameter, the radius is 1/2 as large.

The area of a circle with Radius = 9 cm,
Area =  is 254.34 square cm

Use the Formula
A = π r2
Area = pi times radius squared

Table
- In general, if N is the number of days the cancer cells has been present, then the expression for the number of calls present during the nth day is 2n The letter n is called an exponent of base 2.
- In 22, what is the exponent? What is the base? In 23? 24? etc. What does the exponent indicate?
(It indicates the number of repeated multiplication)
- So, what does 23 mean?
(it means 2 x 2 x 2)
- How is it read? ("two to the third power" or "two with the exponent three") Give some more examples.
- What does the exponent tell us? What is base?

2. Fixing Skills
Let us have 3 learning stations. Do the activity in each learning station by group. Once you have finished an activity, go to the next station and do the activity indicated there. Do the activities as fast as you can.

Learning Station 1
Write the number using an exponent then answer.
1. 7x7x7=
2. 8x8x8x8x8x8=
3. 6x6x6x6=
4. Two to the seventh power
5. Six with the exponent nine


Learning Station 2

2. 38
3. 104
4. 342
5. 75
Learning Station 3
Fill in the blanks with the correct exponent form, then answer.
1. 16 = 4 x 4 = ______ = ______
    16 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = ______ = ______
