GOALS

Emphasis on mental Mathematics skills, to enhance higher- order thinking. Enabling students: to identify and calculate the angles made by parallel lines. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vvrac2aG6Y4&feature=relmfu

to calculate the bearing of certain point or object from a given point. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVnVHMHwTOU&feature=related

to locate the position of a certain point from a given point using bearings . to use bearings in 3D problems. to solve 3D problems involving sine rule and cosine rule.

Solutions to Anticipated Challenges

The Head Mistress may not agree with my new approach.

There may be some students who do not want to work together.

Lack of pupil interest in subject.

Unavailability of teaching aids like projector, computer lab etc.

Unexpected holidays.

By Counseling & Convincing, I will make her realize the benefits of my new approach.

By Listening to them & Resolving their issues.

By Motivation & Role model,Individual assessment, & Setting clear objectives.

I will request my H.M to ensure the availability of the Teaching aids.

By taking substitution periods.
