LEARNING ACTIVITIES:

PROCEDURE OF THE LESSON PLAN

Introduction: Start the lesson by asking students if they have heard the terms "cube" and "cube root" before. Then, define what cube and cube root are:

Cube: The cube of a number is the number raised to the power of three. 

For example, the cube of 2 is  2 x 2 x 2 = 8.

Cube Root: The cube root of a number is the number that when cubed, gives the original number. 

For example, the cube root of 8 is 2 because 2 x 2 x 2 = 8.

Teaching:

Demonstrate how to find the cube of a given number. Use some examples such as:

3³ = 27

5³ = 125

(-2)³ = -8

Explain how to find the cube root of a given number. Use some examples such as:

Cube root of 27 = 3

Cube root of 125 = 5

Cube root of -8 = -2

Provide some practice problems for the students to solve in pairs or individually. Example problems may include:

a) Find the cube of 7 

b) Find the cube root of 64 

c) Find the cube of -4 

d) Find the cube root of -125

Once students have completed the practice problems, go over the answers as a class.

ASSESSMENT TECHNIQUES:-

Assignment sheet will be given as home work at the end of the topic. Separate sheets which will include questions of logical thinking and Higher order thinking skills will be given to the above average students.

 Class Test , Oral Test , MCQ worksheet and Assignments can be made the part of assessment.

Re-test(s) will be conducted on the basis of the performance of the students in the test.

Conclusion: 

Summarize the key concepts covered in the lesson and remind students of the importance of understanding cube and cube root in mathematics. Encourage them to practice these skills further to strengthen their understanding of the topic.
