ACTIVITY 1 :

1. Collect different kinds of objects. 2. Put the all objects in a box. 3. Calling 2 or 3 students and telling them to pick up things of same kind.

 

 

ACTIVITY2:

  1. Put the prepared number cards in another box.
  2. Call a student and tell him to pick any 10 numbers.
  3. Call a student and tell him to collect natural number
  4. Similarly we can call many students to come and ask them to collect odd, even numbers etc.

DEVELOPING QUESTIONS:

  1. Can you call that mixing group of objects by a particular name?
  2. Does any number is repeated while collecting numbers?
  3. What is the difference between before and after grouping the objects?

QUESTIONS:

  1. Can we say that whole group of objects is a set ?
  2. Define a set.
  3. Give an example for a set.
