CBSE CLASS 3 LESSON PLAN ON LESSON -4 Metre and centimetre

 Learning Objectives:

By the end of this lesson, students will be able to understand the concepts of metre and centimetre, and  convert measurements between the two units.

Learning Outcome:

Students will confidently identify the units of metre and centimetre, measure objects using a ruler, and convert measurements between the two units accurately.

Introduction for the lesson:

Begin the lesson by asking students if they have heard about "metre" and "centimetre" and if they know what these terms mean.

Show a ruler and explain that it is a tool used to measure lengths, and it helps us understand the concepts of metre and centimetre.

Teaching aids: Videos

Pre-requisite knowledge:

Students should have prior knowledge of basic measurement concepts and be familiar with units like centimetre and metre. They should also have experience using rulers to measure lengths.

Engage:

Show different objects of varying lengths and ask students to estimate the lengths using their hands or by comparing them to other objects.

Present a few objects and have students measure their lengths using rulers in both centimetres and metres.

Ask the students to measure various objects in the classroom, recording their measurements in both centimetres and metres.

Explain:

Introduce the concept of a metre as a larger unit of length and centimetre as a smaller unit of length.

Explain that there are 100 centimetres in one metre, emphasizing the relationship between the two units.

Show examples of measurements in both centimetres and metres, and demonstrate how to convert between the two units.

Elaborate:

Provide worksheets with measurement conversion exercises for students to practice converting between centimetres and metres.

Assign a real-world measurement task, where students measure objects in their homes and convert the measurements to centimetres and metres.

Evaluate:

Observe students during the explore and elaborate phases to assess their ability to measure lengths and convert between centimetres and metres.

Review completed worksheets or workbooks to evaluate students' understanding of measurement concepts and their accuracy in conversions.

Conduct a measurement quiz or a group activity where students measure objects and convert the +9 measurements in a timed setting.

Summary/Recapitulation:

Recap the key points of the lesson, emphasizing the concepts of metre and centimetre and their relationship.

Encourage students to practice measuring lengths using rulers and to continue exploring measurement in their daily lives
