QUESTION 1 1.1 Assume that you are planning a lesson in
which you will teach a Grade 6 class the topic
“Transformations”. Without drawing a lesson plan, answer
the following questions: 1.1.1 Formulate three questions
that you will ask to establish the learners’ prior
knowledge. (6) 1.1.2 Describe two activities that you will
do with your learners in class (your activities should cover
all aspects of the topic). In your activities, you should
include relevant drawings which will be used in the
activities and your step-by-step explanation of the
specific aspect of the topic about which the activity is. (6)
1.1.3 Discuss three misconceptions that you may expect
learners to have. (6) 1.1.4 Design, on a worksheet, three
items which can be used in this lesson. (Your items should
test the concept of Transformations.) (6)
MIP2601/102/0/2024 4 1.2 Develop a marking guideline
for the worksheet in 1.1.4 (4) 1.3 Discuss 4 items from
the environment that you can use to introduce the
concept Transformation and how you will use them (4)
[32]
1.1.1 Formulate Three Questions to Establish Learners’ Prior Knowledge
1. What do you know about shapes and their properties?
o Purpose: To gauge understanding of basic geometric shapes, their names, and
properties.
2. Can anyone explain what happens when we move a shape from one place to another
without changing its size or shape?
o Purpose: To introduce the concept of translation and see if students are familiar
with moving shapes.
3. Have you ever noticed how a shape looks in a mirror or when you flip a picture?
o Purpose: To assess if students have any experience or understanding of reflection
and symmetry.
1.1.2 Describe Two Activities Covering All Aspects of Transformations
, Activity 1: Translation (Sliding Shapes)
Drawing: Draw a simple shape, like a triangle, on a grid.
Explanation:
1. Show the triangle at its starting position.
2. Explain that translation involves sliding the shape without rotating or flipping it.
3. Demonstrate how to slide the triangle horizontally and vertically.
4. Ask students to slide the triangle to different positions on their grids.
Activity 2: Reflection and Rotation (Mirror Images and Turning Shapes)
Drawing: Draw a simple shape, like a square, next to a line that represents a mirror (for
reflection) and at the center of a circle (for rotation).
Explanation:
1. Reflection:
Show the square and its reflection across the line.
Explain that reflection creates a mirror image.
Ask students to draw the reflection of various shapes.
2. Rotation:
Show the square and rotate it 90°, 180°, and 270° around the center point.
Explain how rotation involves turning a shape around a point.
Have students practice rotating shapes on their own grids.
1.1.3 Discuss Three Misconceptions Learners May Have
1. Translation Means Changing Shape or Size:
o Misconception: Students may think that translation involves changing the size or
shape of an object.
o Correction: Emphasize that translation only involves sliding the shape without
altering its size or form.
2. Reflection Means Flipping Over Any Axis:
o Misconception: Students may believe that reflection can happen over any random
line.
o Correction: Clarify that reflection occurs over a specific line, creating a mirror
image relative to that line.
3. Rotation Requires a Specific Angle:
o Misconception: Students may think that rotation always involves a 90° turn.
o Correction: Explain that rotation can be by any angle and demonstrate rotations of
various angles to illustrate this point.
1.1.4 Design Three Items for the Worksheet to Test Transformations
1. Translation Task:
o Draw a triangle at coordinates (2,3). Translate the triangle 4 units to the right and
2 units down. Mark the new coordinates.
o Answer: New coordinates (6,1).
