User:Ashishsainju real Teaching Lesson Plan 7

Subject: Computer Science

Topic: Flowchart

Class: 7

Period: 6th

Time: 45 minutes

Objective:

By the end of this lesson, students will be able to:

• To explain the types of tools used to represent program.
• To explain about the flowchart.
• To explain the concept of Flowchart its basic terms.

Materials Needed:

• Whiteboard
• Projector
• Hardcopy with step-by-step instructions.

Teaching Learning Activities

Introduction(20 minutes):

• Briefly introduce the Flowchart and its types and symbols.
• Briefly discuss real-life scenarios where flowcharts can be useful, such as business processes, algorithms, or decision-making.
• Briefly explain that flowcharts use standardized symbols to represent different steps and actions in a process.

Symbols and Conventions (10 minutes):

Introduce the basic symbols used in flowcharts, including:

• Oval for the start/end of a process
• Rectangle for a process or activity
• Diamond for decision points
• Arrows to represent the flow of the process
• Parallelogram for input/output

Activity(10 minutes):

• Present a simple Algorithm(e.g boiling water, making tea) and tell students to draw the flowchart according to algorithm.
• Provide an individual exercise where each student has to create a flowchart for a given process (e.g., getting ready in the morning, solving a math problem).

Conclusion(5 minutes):

• Summarize the key points about flowcharts, emphasizing their role in visualizing processes and improving communication.
• Discuss the practical applications of flowcharts in various fields.

Homework:

• Describe Flowchart with its symbols used.
• Draw and briefly explain five symbols commonly used in a flowchart.
• Draw a flowchart to show addition, subtraction, division and multiplication.
• Accept three numbers and check whether they are 'Pythagorean Triplets' or not. Display the message accordingly.(Hint: Use Pythagoras Formula for a Right-angled Triangle: h = p²+b²)

Assessment:

• Evaluate students based on their participation in the hands-on practice, their ability to use both algorithm and flowchart for the same problem.
