• revise idea of sets; • Involving children in
• define equal, equivalent, and classification of numbers on
universal sets; the basis of their properties like
• find and use cardinality of finite even, odd, multiples and factors.
These numbers can be used to
sets.
classify numbers in to various
categories.
• Introducing divisibility rules
using patterns, and then
different division problems
could be discussed to show
their use. For example, let
children form multiplication
tables of different numbers like
2, 3, 4, etc. and then from the
multiplication facts ask them to
identify the pattern like multiple
of 3 has sum of its digits
divisible by 3, multiple of 5 has
either 5 or zero in its ones place
etc.
• Utilising children’s knowledge
about describing multiplication
of fractions as operator “of”
and explain by paper folding,
shading parts of whole etc.
1 1
for example × is one-third
3 2
of one-half which can be shown
as:
The double shaded region is one-
sixth of the whole which shows
1 1 1
that × = .
3 2 6
• Solving of sums by children a
observing the pattern that in all
cases the product of fractions
can be obtained by multiplying
their numerators and their
denominators.
