important.

Lesson sequence and time Introduction: What hook will you use to get students interested?
sequence
Beginning 1. Mark class roll, write topic and page number on whiteboard.

Modification for diverse
abilities
(Extension/enrichment)

Since mathematic is not streamed in year 7, therefore if students are

advanced, I would provide students with exercises that can be accessed using
technology such as iPad applications (from an external source).

Assessment of students

Methods to be used:
Check book work, and see if the students are able to describe the
definition of ratios

Evaluation where to
next, for the students?

Self assessment and

evaluation for yourself

See students progress on individual work

Next, they will be able to progress onto Exercise 12B

1. Students behaviour (behavioural management)

2. Time management of class
