Teachers’ Guide for Fence Your Equation This lesson takes about 50 minutes. The earlier shot of this video shows a situation at a sheep farm. The video is then focusing on a man getting out of a car and then walking towards the owner of the farm. Using hand signals and body language, he shows that he wants to buy a flock of sheep. The owner nods as a sign of agree. Then, the man pays for the sheep to the owner and they shake hands. The video ends by showing the man returns to his car and drives away. The video will be followed by explaining the concept of differentiation to find the maximum area. Learning Outcomes/Objectives: At the end of the lesson, students should be able to: apply the concept of differentiation to find the maximum area the concept of differentiation in daily life activities Prerequisites: Before watching this video, studenst should have prior knowledge on: how to differentiate a function how to draw graphs how to find area and volume of various shapes Suggested activities: We would like to suggest some activities. For instance, teacher can use any shape of pen in doing the activity. And as for activity 2 and 3, you may want to encourage your students to use open source software such as spreadsheet. You can download the software from: You may want to also provide hand-outs for your students so that they will have clear instructions and guidance on using the software. Please refer to this link to download a copy of the handous: ACTIVITY 1 (5 minutes) 1. Students will be assigned to work in small groups. 2. Each group will be given a piece of grid/graph paper. 3. Teacher will draw a diagram of the rectangular with 3 sides on blackboard or whiteboard or plain paper for students’ reference. 4. Students will be asked to draw a rectangular with only 3 sides with perimeter 25 metre on the provided grid paper with scale 1 centimetre by 1 metre (1cm: 1m). 5. Teacher will ask students to draw another side of the rectangular to make it enclosed.
