* The student should be able to understand that a diameter divides the circle into two equal halves and each such half is a semicircle or hemicircle.<br>
−
===Activity No # ===
+
* The student learns how to form a semicircle by joining any two points on the circumference through its centre .
+
==='''Notes for teachers'''===
+
Show children the forming of semicircle by drawing diameter.
+
==='''Activity No # 1'''===
+
Bring cut circles of different sizes, fold them into exact halves and help them recognise semicircles. Let them colour each half with different colour.<br>

*Question Corner
+
Ask children the previous day to cut circles of given radius and bring.
+
+
'''Instructions to the students:'''
+
Instruct them to fold circle into exact half. Draw diameter on folded line and colour each half with different colour.
+
*'''Evaluation'''
+
Were the students able to draw and cut perfect circles?<br>
+
Was the folded line (diameter) passing through the center of circle?<br>
+
*'''Question Corner'''
+
In how many different ways can you draw semicircles for a given circle?
