Methodology

Educator will brush up their knowledge of the shapes which they did in class 1 asking a variety of questions.

Eg. “Children, you must be knowing some shapes. Now here is one Mister. He says, “ I have 4 equal sides and 4 corners. Who am I ? “ children will come up with answer :  square. To show all sides equal, educator will mark al sides with the same symbol as shown in the figure. Corners will also  be marked as shown in the figure.
 

 

 

(2) Now for the second shape, second question will be formed. Educator will draw a circle on the board and will prompt children to form a   question by reading the picture and by describing the properties of that shape. Educator will help them to start. Eg. I have no …   what ? Children will continue the question saying – no corners. Who am I ? Educator will show them the shape moving her finger in the air to see .The imaginary circle.

  (3)For rectangle, educator will draw the shape of rectangle and a square And will tell them to differentiate the square and the rectangle. To show them two opposite sides equal, educator will mark two pairs with different symbols to differentiate both sides having same vertex. Corners will also be marked.
