Step 1:  Take a square sheet of paper. Draw
                             a line in the centre of the paper

                             using a scale and a pencil. With
                             the help of your parents cut the

                             paper from the centre using a pair
                             of scissors as shown. You will obtain
                             two rectangles. Count the edges

                             and corners of the rectangles.


                    Step 2:  Now draw a line ver  cally in the
                             centre of a rectangle obtained by

                             you. With the help of your parents
                             cut the paper from the centre as
                             shown. You will obtain two squares.

                             Count the number of edges and
                             corners.

                    Step 3:  Take a square and draw a line on it

                             such that two triangles are formed.
                             With the help of your parents cut
                             the paper along the do  ed line. You

                             will obtain two triangles. Count the
                             number of edges and corners.

                    Step 4:  Take a separate sheet and draw a

                             circle on it by Tracing the outline
                             of a circular object using a pencil.
                             With the help of your parents cut

                             the paper along the do  ed line. You
                             will obtain a circle.

                    Step 5:  Now draw a line ver  cally  or

                             horizontally in the centre of the
                             circle. With the help of your parents

                             cut the circle from the centre. You                        or
                             will obtain two semicircles.



                    In this way, we can cut a paper to obtain diff erent shapes.
