LESSON PRESENTATION
| Steps | Teacher’s Activities | Learners’ Activities | Learning Points | Evaluation |
| Introduction | The teacher introduces the topic using models and diagrams of plane shapes. | Pupils observe and name familiar shapes. | Recognition of plane shapes in real-life objects. | Mention any two objects that have flat surfaces. |
| Step 1 | The teacher explains and draws parallel and perpendicular lines using the board and ruler. | Pupils draw and identify such lines in the classroom and surroundings. | Understanding of parallel and perpendicular lines. | Identify a pair of perpendicular lines in the classroom. |
| Step 2 | The teacher explains the types and properties of triangles (Equilateral, Isosceles, Scalene) using drawn shapes. | Pupils classify triangles and state their properties. | Classification and properties of triangles. | How many equal sides does an equilateral triangle have? |
| Step 3 | The teacher introduces the use of symbols (// for parallel, ⊕ or ⊥ for perpendicular) with examples like AB//CD and EC⊕GH. | Pupils label diagrams using the correct symbols. | Use and interpretation of geometry symbols. | Write the correct symbol for parallel lines. |
| Step 4 | The teacher explains and draws trapezium, parallelogram, and rhombus, highlighting their properties. | Pupils identify the shapes, draw and state their properties. | Knowledge of specific properties of quadrilaterals. | State two properties of a rhombus. |
| Step 5 | The teacher gives angle-based problems involving triangles and guides pupils through solving them. | Pupils calculate missing angles and solve problems. | Application of triangle knowledge in problem-solving. | What is the third angle in a triangle if two angles are 45° and 90°? |
| Conclusion | The teacher revises the lesson and summarizes key points. | Pupils ask and answer revision questions. | Recap of key concepts and consolidation. | List the three types of triangles learned. |
EVALUATION (CLASS WORK)
- Identify two parallel lines around you.
- Draw and name any type of triangle.
- Use the correct symbol to show perpendicular lines.
- List two properties of a trapezium.
- Find the missing angle in a triangle with angles 40° and 60°.
CONCLUSION / SUMMARY
The learners were able to identify and describe various plane shapes, understand line relationships using symbols, classify triangles, and explain the properties of trapezium, parallelogram, and rhombus. They also solved quantitative aptitude problems involving angles in triangles.
HOME FUN (ASSIGNMENT)
- Draw and label an equilateral triangle and a parallelogram.
- Find the third angle in a triangle where two angles are 70° and 50°.
- List three shapes that have at least one pair of parallel lines.
