EXPECTED PUPILS RESPONSE
INTRODUCTION
Teacher creates a rapport with students by asking

Activity 3 (Group Activity)
Teacher says this time , I will group you into
six groups.
I will give each group a shape and what you
are going to do is to describe the shape. For
example : How many sides does it have?,
what kind of lines is it made of?, Is the
shape closed or open?
The word is “perpendicular”

(After 3 minutes)
Teacher says okay guys , 3 minutes is over.
Please select a representative to present in
your input in front.
Yes teacher
Group 1
This shape is closed and it has two pairs of
parallel sides, 4 equal sides, 4 right angles.
Group 2
This shape is closed and all angles are right
angles , opposite sides parallel and equal
Group 3
This shape is closed and both pair of opposite
sides are parallel and equal, opposite angles
equal
Group 4
This shape is closed and all sides are equal,
opposite angles are equal
Group 5
This shape is closed and one pair of opposite
sides are parallel.
Group 6
This shape is closed and non-parallel sides
