MATHEMATICS 

SMASE – ASEI PDSI METHOD

THIRD TERM

WEEK 5

PRIMARY 6

TOPIC: Scale Drawing 

LEARNING AREA 

• Lesson One – Scale Drawing – Lines

• Lesson Two – Scale Drawing – Rectangle and Square

• Lesson Three – Scale Drawing – Football Field

• Lesson Four – Quantitative and Test

TIME – 40 Minutes each.

LEARNING OUTCOME 

By the end of the lesson, pupils should be able to:

1. draw plans according to a given scale.
2. apply and use scale drawing in converting lengths and distances of objects in his/her environment to any scale.

RATIONALE

Drawing is a way of making marks to represent an object. You can’t have technology without making something first. A drawing that shows a real object with accurate sizes reduced or enlarged by a certain amount is called the scale. A scale tells what the length of object, map or plan represents in real life. Scale is shown using a ratio.

It is important therefore that children are exposed to the practice of scale drawing early enough to enable them to develop the skills of technical drawing.

LEARNING MATERIALS 

The teacher will teach the lesson with the aid of:

1. Different scale
2. Ruler
3. Measuring apes
4. Protractors
5. Drawing book
6. Graph sheet

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE
