− | How to do the different steps of the activity?
| + | *Process : |
− | | + | #The teacher can initially discuss about plane figures, solid figures and pyramids. |
− | What kinds of questions you can ask for that activity | + | #Reiterate the properties of pyramid. |
− | | + | #Discuss about the types of pyramids based on its base. |
− | What are the student follow-up activities/ questions you can give? | + | #project the geogebra file, point to parts of pyramid. |
− | | + | #Moving slider, show them the open pyramid so that students can easily comprehend the surface area of it. |
− | Categories: (Subject) (Topic) (Sub-concept/topic) (Class 6) (Resource format)
| + | #Reiterate that surface area of pyramid would be the sum of area of its base + 4 times the area of its sides in case of a regular pyramid. |
− | | + | *Developmental Questions |
− | Example - (Mathematics) (Triangle) (Area) (Perimeter) (Class 6) (Class 8) (Geogebra) (Video)
| + | #What is a pyramid ? |
| + | #Name its parts. |
| + | #What are its properties ? |
| + | #What shape is its base ? |
| + | #How many vertices does it have ? |
| + | #What are the shapes of its sides. |
| + | #How many edges, faces does it have ? |
| + | #What is the formula to find the area of a square ? |
| + | #What is the formula to find the area of a triangle ? |
| + | #How do you get the perpendicular height of the triangle? |
| + | #Do you know any other formula to find the area of the triangle ? |
| + | #What would be the area of the pyramid ? |
| + | *Evaluation: |
| + | #On what factors would the area of a pyramid depend ? |
| + | *Question Corner: |
| + | #Can we have a generalised formula to find the surface area of all types of pyramids ? Discuss. |
