| + | '''Practice with generalization |
| + | Commutative and distributive properties''' |
| + | |
| + | '''(Part1 - Practice with generalization)''' |
| + | *Work with Ex 11.1. Different children can be given different problems. The important thing is they know variables can be in different letters. |
| + | |
| + | *They should also know that different phenomena can be generalized. Mangoes, students, pencils. |
| + | |
| + | *Ask children to talk about (I) did they add (ii) did they multiply? |
| + | |
| + | *For example, when they made “Z” they added three match sticks. When they made 10 “Z” they added 3 +3+3+..... 10 times This is also multiplying by 10. And we simply wrote this as if “n” sticks are needed for a “Z”, then 10n sticks are needed for 10 “Z”. Multiplication is repeated addition. |
| + | |
| + | *Work with the patterns and let children see generalization is not only addition but subtraction and multiplication. |
| + | |
| + | *Check the following document for Shapes patterns students to understand patterns more. |
| + | |
| + | '''(Part 2 - Commutative and distributive properties)''' |
| + | *Give students simple addition (with carry forward). |
| + | *In a group students add in different order and verify |
| + | *They should multiply in different order and verify |
| + | *Also do the distributive property like this <br> |
| + | |
| + | Go back to the number of squares and triangles and activities and introduce Expressions.<br> |
| + | |
| + | Give Ex-11.2 different problems as homework/ classwork practice problems.<br> |
