The document summarizes a mathematics lesson taught by teacher Aswathy A about equations. The 40 student class focused on understanding different problems in equations through discussion, observation, and analyzing notes. Students learned about algebraic methods of solving problems and the concept of algebraic methods in equations. Through various classroom activities using word problems, students practiced forming and solving algebraic equations to find unknown values like the number of children among a group or the number of original boys and girls in a class. The lesson aimed to help students recall terms like algebra and algebraic form, explain equations, and learn to form and solve different types of algebraic equations.

INTRODUCTION
ACTIVITY - 1
i. Yesterday we study to make algebraic form
of different equations.
ii.
iii. Today we are going to make and solve
different equation.
iv.
v. Will you interest?
PRESENTATION
ACTIVITY – 2
Then teacher presents a problem
“Ticket rate for the science exhibition is 10 rupees
for a child and 26 rupees for an adult, 740 rupees
were got from 50 persons. How many children
among them? ”
Teacher writes answer on blackboard after give an
explanation.
Let x be the number of children.
Number of adults =50-x.
Ticket rate for a child = 10.
Ticket rate for x children’s = 10x.
Ticket rate for an adult = 26.
Ticket rate for (50-x) adults = 26(50-x).

3. Total price = 740.
10x + 26(50-x) = 740.
10x + 1300 – 26x = 740
10x – 26x = 740 - 1300
16x = 560.
X = 560/16
= 35.
Number of children = 35.
Number of adult = 50-35
= 15.
ACTIVITY – 3
Teacher gives another problem.
“A class has the same number of boys and girls.
Only 8 boys were present on a particular day and
then the number of girls was double the number of
boys. What is the number of boys and girls?”
Teacher gave opportunity to students to explain the
question. Then teacher explain the answer and
writes on blackboard.
Let the number of boys and girls be x.
If 8boys were absent,
then the number of boys = x-8.
Number of girls = 2(number of boys).
x = 2(x-8).
x = 2x-16.
2x-x = 16.
x = 16.
Number of boys = 16.
Number of girls = 16.
ACTIVITY-4
Teacher divides the class into 5 groups and gives
activity cards containing questions.

4. ”Ajayan is 10 years older than Vijayan. Next year,
Ajayan’s age would be double that of Vijayan. What
are their ages now?”
“5 times a number is equal to 3 times the sum of
the number and 4. What is the number? ”
CLOSURE
ACTIVITY – 5
Teacher concludes the class by telling what have
learned in the class. Teacher clarifies all the doubts
of students.
REVIEW
ACTIVITY – 6
Teacher ask questions to students and ask to form
questions related to the topic
FOLLOW UP ACTIVITY
1. In a co-operative society the number of
men is thrice the number of women .29
women and 16 men more joined the
society and now the number of men is
double the number of women. How many
women were there in the society at first?
2. 8 times a number is equal to 4 times the
sum of the number and 4.what is the
number?
