LESSON PLAN ON AREAS OF RECTANGLES,CIRCLES AND SQUARES with Feda and Namrat

	What	How long	Materials used
Bridge	Review the definitions of rectangles, squares and circles. Take several responses to get an idea of what the students know.	2 min
Learning Objective	Students will calculate the area of a rectangle, a square and a circle. Students will solve problems involving the areas of rectangles, squares or circles.
Teaching Objective	Students will be able to solve problems individually and cooperatively. Students will be able to clearly and logically communicate a solution to a problem and the process used to solve it.
Pre-test	Ask the students about the formula of areas of rectangles, squares and circles.	2 min
Participatory learning	Ask the Students to solve a problem that involves the calculations of the area of a rectangle and a circle combined. Ask students to describe in words the steps that they will need to take to obtain the answer. Students will work in small groups to find the areas by using the formulas for the area of a rectangle and of a circle.	5 min	Rectangle shaped cardboards with a cut-out circle in the middle.
Post-test	Ask students to solve a similar problem involving many circles marked on a rectangle. Compare results with other groups.	5 min	Another cardboard with many circles marked on a rectangle
Summary	Give overview	1 min
