How to do the different steps of the activity?
+
#Students work individually but in their groups.
 
+
#Take the strings and place them in such a way as to make a closed figure.
What kinds of questions you can ask for that activity
+
#What is the smallest number of strings with which you can form a closed figure?
 
+
#What is this figure called?
What are the student follow-up activities/ questions you can give?
+
#Can you just draw the lines along the strings and see what you get?
 
+
#When you drew, what did you draw?  (Was it a line or was it an angle or was it a line segment?). It is a lime segment – how many line segments are there?
Categories:  (Subject) (Topic) (Sub-concept/topic) (Class 6) (Resource format)
+
#When two line segments joined, what is it called?  (A vertex). How many vertices are there?
 
+
#Is there any angle formed when you made this figure? How many angles were formed?
Example - (Mathematics) (Triangle) (Area) (Perimeter) (Class 6) (Class 8) (Geogebra) (Video)
+
#Show a simple Geogebra file with triangles – Use this file to demonstrate that every triangle has the elements - vertices, sides and angles
 +
#How many triangles were formed?  Were there any strings left over?
 +
#For each of the triangles trace the shape on the book and write down the elements of the triangle in the following format
