The first lesson for the learning of the concept of angle using the mouse shaped made in the lesson as an aide.

The mouse,circle and angle as a measure of rotation.

This lesson is the first of three lessons teaching the concept of angle. Through the folding process the pupils have a dynamic experience of this concept. The idea of measure of rotation as a method of understanding the concept of angle is applied with moving the mouse shape clockwise. This method and definition of an angle as a measure of rotation is understood while creating the angle by the rotational movement. Two mice are folded-one to take home and the other for the next lesson on the subject of angle.

The pupils will construct a circle using the measuring tool  and marking dots at equal distances.

This is the second lesson in learning the concept of angle as a measure of a rotation. The following lesson will make use of the mouse and circle of the the two previous lessons to fully understand the dynamic approach of folding in order to see the formation of an angle as a process of rotation. It is suggested that the pupils make several circles.

Pupils will recognize that the size of an angle is determined by the measure of rotation in relation to a given segment line.

This lesson is the 3rd activity  demonstrating the concept of angle as measure of rotation.

• Classifying triangles according to the angles of the triangles.
• Identifying right angled triangles, acute triangles and obtuse triangles.
• Classifying triangles according to the sides of the triangles.
• Drawing and naming triangles according to both properties of sides and angles.

In this lesson pupilsinvestigate different triangles formed as a result of folding the model. A surprise final model using old and new terms for descriptions.

The concept of a right angle and visual representation of an angle.

• The study of Perpendicular Lines and Perpendicular Sides of Polygons.
• Comparison of angle sizes.
• Investigation of angles and  Perpendicular Lines and Perpendicular Sides of Polygons.

In this lesson the pupils will investigate perpendicular and intersecting lines. At the conclusion of this lesson the final model will be a surprise while learning new concepts and revising previously learnt geometrical concepts.

Angles,right angle,sides of a polygon.

During the folding processes the pupil will relate to perpendicular and parallel lines and segments.

There is no model in this lesson.

According to planned curriculum.

This is a prepatory lesson to the next lesson about parallel and perpendicular lines and segments with the model of a dress. In the lesson the pupils investigate the properties of parallel and perfpendicular lines using  their measuring tool.

The concepts of angle,a right angle and a square.

During the folding process the pupils will identify parallel and perpendicular lines.

According to the curriculum.

This is the second lesson on parallel and perpendicular lines following the prepatory lesson on parallel and perpendicular lines-1 1/2. In this lesson will identify aparallel and perpendicular lines in other situations. The final model will be  a surprise for the pupils and at the same time learning new concepts and revising previously learnt concepts.

The concepts of angle,straight angle and square.

• Pupils will investigate measurement by direct comparison and by non-standard units.
• Pupils will compare lengths of a certain object.
• Pupils use the measurement tool as a non-standrad unit for measuring lengths.

• The concept of a unit for measuring area.
• Measuring various objects with different units of measurement.
• Comparison of shape areas using a non-standard unit.

There is no special model but the units of area (squares) should be kept in a folder.

The lesson of comparison of areas 1/3 should precede this lesson.

Understanding the concept of a unit for area measurement and comparison of area size using the same unit.
