4. Math usefulness in
our daily life in terms of the
following facts
• It is very hot today. How hotter is it today than
yesterday?
• How far is your school from home? Can we reach
there in an hour?
• Is 2 kilograms of rice enough for your family for• Is 2 kilograms of rice enough for your family for
two days?
• How much milk does your cow give in a day?
• What is the date today?
• How much manure is needed for 2 ropanis of a
farm?

5. Mathematics
curriculum contains the following
two strategies
• Develop required minimum mathematical
knowledge, skill and attitude to solve the
problems that arise while carrying out daily
activities after completing grade 5.
• Develop necessary mathematical knowledge and• Develop necessary mathematical knowledge and
skills needed as the foundation for lower
secondary level i.e. grade 6 after completing grad
primary level.

6. Nine Learning Areas in
Math
1. Geometry
2. Concept of number
3. Basic operations of Mathematics
4. Time, Currency, Measurement and weight

14. Teaching Learning
Process
• Inductive method
• Simple to complex
• Concrete to abstract• Concrete to abstract
• Problem solving method
• Mathematical thinking
• Integrating ICT Tools

15. Student Assessment
1. Find out whether the students achieved the learning
outcomes or not
2. Find out whether the students have prerequisite
knowledge to learn a new lesson (concept/skill)
3. Give feedback to students about what they have learnt
4. Give feedback to teachers about the effectiveness of
their teaching (From Department)
5. Grade students by assessing their achievement

16. Following measures
should be adopted in grading
students:
• It is assumed that teaching learning can only be
meaningful when a teacher presents himself/herself
as a co-learner, facilitator, promoter and motivator.
• The process of solving mathematical problems by• The process of solving mathematical problems by
associating them with local ones has been
considered as the best teaching methods.
• Personal teaching in consultation with parents,
teachers and students is meaningful so this should
be given appropriate place in teaching mathematics.
