D.A Public School (O & A Levels) Action Plan Topic: Polygon (Triangles and Quadrilaterals) Prepared By: Mrs. Sofia Zia

Goals Long Term Goals Short Term Goals

Long-Term Goal *Adopt 21st century teaching approaches to enhance students appreciation of mathematics. *Understanding, managing, and creating effective oral, written and multimedia communication in a varety of forms and contexts

Short- Term Goals Focus on students developing their Mental Maths skills. Encourage students to maintain collaborative atmosphere. Developing confidence in the students to eliminate their confusions by asking questions. To make them understand the importance of solution and steps instead of just stressing on just bringing out answers.

REMEMBRING UNDERSTANDING APPLYING ANALYSING EVALUATING CREATING Student should be able to: *Identify different types of polygons *Allot names to different shapes and figures UNDERSTANDING *Differentiate between types of polygons. *Distinguish between types of triangles and types of quadrilaterals. APPLYING Students should be able to: *Apply new techniques to find measurements of different types of polygons. ANALYSING *Determine the required lengths and angles of the given figures. EVALUATING *Calculate Area and Perimeter of the basic shapes, i.e.: Triangles, Rectangle and Square CREATING *Construct the figures using steps of constructions.

To Remember: *Different types of polygons *Allot names to different shapes and figures * Know basic properties of Triangles and Quadrilaterals * Learning Formulae of Area and perimeter of the figures

To Understand: *The usage of formulae. *Difference between types of polygons. *Distinguishment between types of triangles and types of quadrilaterals.

To Apply: *New techniques to find measurements of different types of polygons. *The learned formulae to find the area and perimeter.

To Analyse: *The required lengths and angles of the given figures. *The data given, to apply the formulae.

To Evaluate: *Calculate Area and Perimeter of the basic shapes, i.e.: Triangles, Rectangle and Square *The rule of vertices.

To Create: *Construct the figures using steps of constructions. *Naming different figures using the rules of vertices

21st Century Teaching Approach Topic 21st Century Teaching Approach 21st Century Skills Techniques and Modes Polygons Observing and Analysing skills Questioning skills Investigating Skills Decision making Mental math skills The following abilities will further enhance in the students: Following Instructions Problem Solving Organization Calculation Construction of diagrams Teacher’s Multimedia Presentation Textbook usage Analysis Assignments

21st Century Learning Objectives The following abilities will further enhance in the students: Following Instructions: Students will be told to carry out the given instructions Problem Solving: Using the instructions students shall be able to solve the given exercises Organization: Steps of constructions are carried out by the students in an orderly manner. Decision making: Choosing the appropriate measurements Calculation: Enhancement of mental math skills Construction of diagrams: Using appropriate values for the figures. Lecture Demonstration: The lecture will include all the facts involving the topic to allow students to comprehend the topic better.

Methodology Teaching method: Lecture demonstration will be give using multimedia presentation Students would be encouraged to ask questions at the end of every lecture.

Instructional Strategies and Tasks I will encourage students to inquire and eliminate their problems by asking question and group discussion. I will promote more discussion and collaborative work in the class. I will ask questions from the students to explain the method and logic of obtaining answers. I will explain different strategies of delivering the lecture and will ask students to choose the best strategy that should be followed.

Solutions to Anticipated Challenges Parents may are unable to understand my methodology of explanation. I will make a sample example paper to demonstrate the method of explanation and will give to the parents. Students are not feeling comfortable in adjusting themselves in Group work. I will encourage students to develop communication skills and interactive skills. Questions may arise to the subject incharge on my teaching methods. I will show all my guides and manuals to explain my methodology.

I will focus on communicative skills TIME LINE I will focus on Observational and Discussion skill I will implement 21st Century teaching approach September November I will focus on communicative skills October I will focus on Mental calculation And Decision making skills December
