1) Students to highlight the sides that are counted for "push-out" method, and are able to identify any extra parts that are leftover.
2) Students are able to apply what they learnt from the lesson to the Island Conquest game.

7th Nov (Fractions):   
1) Illustration of mixed numbers , improper fractions by using pictorials ( pies/ pizzas).
2) Stu are able to recall after the lesson that the fraction line means to divide.

Decimals:
1) Students are able to convert fractions into decimals and vice versa.
2) More boardwork to make the lesson less dry.
3) Suggestion to make War of Numbers game more collaborative - 

Time:
1) Students are able to convert between 12-hour clock format to 24-hour clock format and vice versa. For weaker stus, provide a table to show conversion e.g. 12 midnight -> 00 00.
2) Time zones
3) Finding duration using timelines

Symmetry:
YouTube video: Symmetry in nature e.g. flowers/butterflies/buildings

1) Students to be able to solve the 4 operations in algebraic expression
2) - Use units (1unit etc) to introduce algebra

Circles
1) Students to be able to apply the formulae to find area and circumference during independent work

2) - How the value of pi came about? (Video- TedED)
- Circles song- catchy song to remember the formulae used

Speed
1) Students are able to explain the relationship between speed, distance and time confidently
2) Students are able to identify the correct formula for average speed without finding the average of all the speed.

Techniques:
1) Use Romeo and Juliet example - to teach meet up and catch up concept
2) Use toy cars to demonstrate meet up and catch up

Objectives
1) Students are able to identify the base and corresponding perpendicular height of a triangle independently without referring to notes.
2) Students are able to apply the formulae and find area of triangles during independent work with minimal help from the teacher.

Techniques:
1)  Sharing on story of Rapunzel's hair dropping from the top of the tower to illustrate idea of perpendicular height.

2) The use of 2 different coloured highlighters to consistently mark out the base and height for all questions.  

3) "Cross Cancellation" of common factors in multiplication of fractions. ]]> 2018-11-08 05:26:45 UTC https://padlet.com/sweelian/lessonplanning/wish/301900091 https://padlet.com/sweelian/lessonplanning/wish/301901505 Ratio

Objectives:
1) Students are able to calculate the volume and surface area of a cube and cuboid with the formulae independently.

2) Students are able to calculate a dimension given the volume or surface area of a cube and cuboid independently.]]> 2018-11-08 05:44:30 UTC https://padlet.com/sweelian/lessonplanning/wish/301901910 https://padlet.com/sweelian/lessonplanning/wish/302419960 Area of Triangle:
Objectives: 
1. Students are able to explain why area of a triangle is half times base times height
2. Students are able to highlight base and corresponding height
Techniques:
1. Use Word document shapes (a rectangle, and triangle) to show how a triangle (acute, right angle) is always half of a rectangle. Proceed to join two rectangles together with triangles in them to prepare for Tut2 Q13, 14 type questions
2. Use whiteboard market to draw a parallelogram, and therefore introduce the fact that the parallelogram has the same area as the rectangle in step 1. Thus, the obtuse triangle is also half the area of the parallelogram.
3. For visual learners especially: draw stickmen at the BASE and then relate that to height. ]]> 2018-11-09 03:55:21 UTC https://padlet.com/sweelian/lessonplanning/wish/302419960 https://padlet.com/sweelian/lessonplanning/wish/302420594 Rates:
Learning Objectives:
1. Students can perform direct proportion in Section B Q4, Q6, Q8 by themselves.
2. Students to be able to explain rates in terms of unit of time

Techniques:
1. Relate to real-world examples 
2. Role play the idea of catching up (Q5 and Q6 of Tut A)
