Teachers’ Guide (Mathema cs) Lesson Plans
The newly developed lesson plans are a highly effective, contextualised and easy to use resource that will
serve as a practical tool for public sector teachers. It is hoped that teachers find the lesson plans highly
useful,
productive and that they are able to experience visible outcome-oriented learning that is concrete and
enduring. Also, these plans are based on collaborative, interactive, and inquiry-based methodologies and
approaches to make the classroom learning more effective, vibrant and engaging. Based on low cost, no
cost material, these lesson plans can be applied with little effort and gain a lot of benefit for both teachers
and students in terms of learning and conceptual understanding.
The primary focus of the 'COVID-19 Accelerated Response for Education' has not only been on developing
lesson plans that address Student Learning Outcomes and allow teachers to help students discover
concepts, it has been ensured that plans are sequentially sub-divided in three major domains:
Ÿ Teaching
Ÿ Assessment
Ÿ Reinforcement
To ensure that the plan is executed in the best possible manner and that both teachers and learners get the
most out of the plans, it is suggested that time to each domain is allocated in the following percentage
while delivering them:
Ÿ Teaching 75%
Ÿ Assessment 15%
Ÿ Reinforcement 10%
An emphasis on bolstering concepts and skills through Worksheets:
Further to the above, worksheets have also been prepared to supplement and complement all SLOs
mentioned in the textbook. Like the lesson plans, the worksheets will also be shared with you on a rolling
basis. Each worksheet provides practice and strengthens conceptual clarity. Moreover, these worksheets
are aimed at keeping the students engaged in positive and productive activities while at home.
Gaining the most out of the Worksheets:
As mentioned above, the purpose of the worksheets is to consolidate and clarify concepts, but they can
also be used as:
Ÿ Assessment for learning
Ÿ Additional resource to be used in class
Ÿ Sample activities for teachers to replicate and devise their own worksheets on similar line.
Tips for Teachers:
To optimize these developed lesson plans, it is advisable for teachers to:
Ø go through and comprehend the relevant lesson plan well (Read and understand the text at least
twice)
Ø keep the relevant textbook with you when going through the plan
Ø read and comprehend the relevant chapter
Ø make notes if required
Ø ensure the availability of mentioned resources
Ø highlight the SLO's, progression of activities, stages, transitions, and key points
Ø visualize your actual classroom, space, seating plan and challenges
Ø foresee the organization of group, pair or individual work
Ø play the role of facilitator, leader and manager
Ø try your best to execute the lesson plan in its true spirit
Ø ensure proper time management
Ø adapt activity, if it is unavoidable
ii
Teachers’ Guide (Mathema cs) Lesson Plans
Ø Use teacher's discretion in implementation of the lesson i.e if you feel that a concept needs more
time, you may extend the lesson to the next period
Ø Wrap up the lesson with good spirit leaving a positive message.
Assessment/Evaluation:
This section focuses on ensuring that your students have arrived at their intended destination. Teachers
need to gather some evidence that they did.

Ÿ call a student to check, the both of the ratios like
5 ´ 4 20

Ÿ here we can see that a scale factor of 4 was used on both top and bottom the same number was
used to multiply both 5 and 7 in proportion.
Development 20 minutes
Activity 1 10 minutes
Teacher will solve a real life example to make students understand time and work using proportion:
Ÿ Take an example
¦ Ahmed earns Rs. 7000 in 2 weeks. What amount will he earn in 2 days if he works 6 days a week?
Ÿ Call a student to write on the writing board.
1 week = 7 days
2 weeks = 14 days
Method-I: Unitary Method
Ahmad earns in 14 days = 7000
7000
Ahmed earns in 1 day = By simplifying, we get
14
= 500
Ahmed earn in 2 days = 2 × 500
= Rs. 1000
Strategy
Step-I:
Total Amount = 7000
How many days he earns = 14 days
6
Teachers’ Guide (Mathema cs) Lesson Plans
Grade 7
Lesson 2
Step-II:
7000
Amount earned in 1 days =
14
= Rs. 500
Step-III
Required amount in 2 days = Rs. 500 × 2
= Rs. 1000
Method-II:
Ÿ Example, the cost of 5 Kg of Rice is Rs. 300. What will be the cost of 12 Kg of rice?
Step-I
Here, we can see more quantity so more cost. It is direct proportion. In this case direction of
arrow heads will be same. Now take tail as numerator and head as denominator.
30 x
=
5 300
Take cross mul plica on
x ´ 5 = 300 ´ 30
300 ´ 30
x= By simplifying, we get
5
x = Rs. 1800
Activity 2 10 minutes
Ÿ Take example: 10 masons completed a wall in 4 days. In how many days will 20 masons complete the
same wall?
Solution:
The situation is an inverse proportion

Now take tail as numerator and head as denominator.

Now, x =

Ÿ Constant: A symbol having a fixed numerical value is called a constant. For example 2, 7, 11, etc
Ÿ Variable: A symbol represented by literal and take various numerical values is called a variable i.e.
in x + 1, x is variable and 1 constant.
Ÿ Literals: The letters or alphabets that we use to represent unknowns are called literal numbers for
example, area of rectangle can be calculated by multiplying its length and breadth i.e.,
Area = l × b where, l = length and b = breath
Clearly l and b represent the unknowns. So, these are called literal number.

Ÿ Polynomials' Method of Addition: We use the method for adding polynomials by adding like
terms individually which is given below.
¦ We can arrange the polynomials in any order but usually we arrange them in descending
order and write the like terms vertically in a single column for adding
Ÿ Teacher will add the following polynomials as an example:
x3 + 3 x 2 y – 2 xy 2 + y 3 , 2 x3 – 5 x 2 y – 3 xy 2 – 2 y 3
Solution:
x3 + 3 x 2 y - 2 xy 2 + y3
2 x3 - 5 x 2 y - 3 xy 2 - 2 y3
3x3 - 2 x 2 y - 5 xy 2 - y3

Solution:
2 x 4 y - 4 x 3 y 2 + 3 x 2 y 3 - 7 xy 4
x 4 y - 4 x 3 y 2 - 3 x 2 y 3 + 8 xy 4

What must be added to x – x + x – x + x – x + x + 1 to get x + x + x – 1?
Solution:
Arrange the polynomial in descending order
7 5 3
First Polynomial = x +x +x –1
7 6 5 4 3 2
Second Polynomial = x –x +x –x +x –x +x+1

Information for Teachers
Ÿ Algebraic Identities: An algebraic identity is a simplified form consisting of the algebraic terms
that provide us a rule for solving long calculation in a short and easy way.
Material/Resources Required
Coloured charts, writing board, board marker, pair of scissors, green Stick
Introduction 5 minutes
Grade 7
Lesson 11
Ÿ Now tell the students that today we will recognize and prove the identity.
¦ a2 – b2 = (a – b)(a + b)
Development 30 minutes
Activity 1 15 minutes
2 2
Teacher will tell the students that they are going to prove identity (a + a)(a – b) = a + b
Step-I
Ÿ Draw a square of length “a” as shown below
D a C
a a
A a B
Step-II
Tell the students to cut a length “b” from side AB and BC.
a
D a–b F b C
a–b
a–b
O G
b2 b
A a–b E B
Step-III
2 2
Tell the students we will subtract b from a
2 2
a –b = Area of ABCD – Area of OEBG

Ÿ Tell the students that after subtraction of b = Area of OEBG, we will get two rectangles in a
square ABCD
¦ A rectangle FCGO having Area = b (a – b)
¦ A rectangle DAEF having Area = a (a – b)
Step-V
Ÿ Tell the students that after Step-III and Step-IV we get,
D a C
O G
2 2
a a a – b
E B
A a B
D a–b F
a+b
a+b
A E
b b
G a–b C
Ÿ Tell the student we will get a rectangle DFCG having dimension (a – b)(a + b)
So, we have
Area of ABCD – Area of OEBG = Area of DFCG
2 2
a – b = (a – b)(a + b)
Ÿ Tell the student this is the required proof of identity.

Activity 2 15 minutes
Step-I:
Ÿ Draw a square ABCD of side 5cm as follows:
D 5 C
5 5
A 5 B
Step-II:
Tell the students to cut a length 3cm from side AB and BC in such a way
D 5 C
F

5 O
q 3
A E B
Step-III:
Ÿ Tell the students we will subtract
32 = Area of OEBG from 52 = Area of ABCD then, we will get
52 – 32 = Area of ABCD – Area of OEBG
81

Lesson 11
Step-IV:
Ÿ Tell the students that after subtracting 32 = Area of OEBG we will get two rectangles in a square
ABCD
¦ A rectangle FCGO having area = 3(5 – 3)
¦ A rectangle DAEF having area = 5(5 – 3)
Step-V:
Ÿ Tell the students that after Step-III and Step-IV we get
D 5 C
D 5–3 O
O 3 G F 3 C
5–3
5–3
5 5 – 3 32 3 = +
5 5
E 3 B O 3 G
A 5 B
A 5–3 E
Area of ABCD – Area of OEBG = Area of FCGO + Area of DAEF
2 2
5 – 3 = 3(5 – 3) + 5(5 – 3)
Ÿ Now cut FCGO rectangle and paste along AE in such a way:
D 5–3 F
5 5
A E
3 3
C G
5–3

Lesson 11
Ÿ Tell the student we will get a rectangle DFCG having dimension
(5 – 3)(5 + 3)
So, we have
Area of ABCD – Area of OEBG = Area of DFGC
2 2
5 –3 = (5 – 3)(5 + 3)
25 – 9 = (2)(8)
16 = 16
Ÿ Tell the students that both sides proves equal.

Homework 1 minute
Ÿ Choose two numbers of your own choice and prove the identity
a2 – b2 = (a – b)(a + b)
