CENTRE POINT SCHOOL, NAGPUR
LESSON PLAN
SUBJECT: MATHEMATICS
Date: 1st july 2017
Lesson Title: Polynomials Continued ( LP uploaded earlier)
Euclid's geometry
Class: IX
Topics to be covered:
(i) Introduction
(ii) Euclid's definition of different terms ,such as point, line, straight line,
surface and plane surfaces.
(iii) Euclid's five postulates.
(iv) Euclid's Axiom.
Desirable learning outcomes:
The students will be able to:
(i) corelate geometry with physical world or real applications.
(ii) understand the definition of different terms like point, line, straight line,
surface and plain surface with examples.
(iii) learn and understand Euclid's postulates.
(iv) learn and understand Euclid's Axiom.
(v) Understand two equivalent version of Euclid's fifth postulates.
Teaching Methodology:
(i) revision of polynomials learnt in earlier classes will be done Then excercise
2.5 will be solved.
(ii) Euclid's geometry will be introduced by giving example of the problems
faced by people in ancient civilizations and how geometry helped them to
overcome the problems.
(iii) Teacher will tell the students about the great Greek mathematician Euclid ,
who thought of geometry as an abstract model of the world.
(iv) with the help of example, few definitions stated above will be explained
and defined and undefined terms and difference between Axiom and
postulates will be discussed.
(v) Euclid'sfive postulates will be explained by giving certain example.
(vi) the term proposition or theorem and theorem based on Euclid's postulates
will be explained.
( vii) Axioms will be discussed.
( viii) to make children understand the applications of axiom and postulates ex
5.1 will be discussed and solved.
( ix) equivalent version of Euclid's fifth postulates will be explained and ex 5.2
will be done.
Recapitulation:
To reinforce the concepts taught, Teach Next modules will be shown and
practice sums will be given.
