MicroTeaching: Pythagoras Theorem

Bridge/Intro: Real life problem related to Pythagoras Theorem: Ladder problem For a ladder to reach second floor window(13ft high) and away from the wall(3ft).What's the length of the ladder? Teaching Object: teach them the proof of the theorem by geometric proof with props Learning Object: the theorem, the principle and the usage of this theorem Pre-Test: Start by asking if students are aware of the content about pythagorean theorem Yes? allow them to come up and write down what they know No? simple! let's start with our lecture Participatory Activities: divide students into 3 groups and hand out the game sheet. Each group of students will work together to solve while teachers will join them to help out when needed. Post-Test: might take the unfinished game home as homework. Solve the ladder problem together Summary: briefing of this theorem and introducing new topics for students to think about which makes connection to the next class RUN-DOWN Greeting | Problem for students to think(Rong) | Learning objective(Paul) | Pretest(Paul) | Proof of Theorem(Stan) | Game(Stan) | Solve the Problem together(Rong) | Summary(Paul)
