Lesson Plan for Junior Secondary 1 - Basic Tech - Board Practice 2

# Lesson Plan: Board Practice 2 ## Subject: Basic Tech ## Grade: Junior Secondary 1 ## Duration: 40 minutes ### Objectives By the end of the lesson, students will be able to: 1. Understand and practice basic board drafting techniques. 2. Use drafting tools and equipment correctly. 3. Draw basic geometric shapes accurately on a drawing board. 4. Demonstrate knowledge of line types and applications in board practice. ### Materials Needed - Drawing boards - T-squares - Set squares - Compasses - Drawing paper (A3 size) - HB pencils - Erasers - Rulers - Protractors ### Lesson Outline #### Introduction (10 minutes) 1. **Greeting and Roll Call (2 minutes)**: Greet students and take attendance. 2. **Review of Previous Lesson (3 minutes)**: Briefly recap "Board Practice 1" where they were introduced to the basics of drawing tools and materials. 3. **Introduction to Today's Topic (5 minutes)**: Explain that today's focus is on practicing and refining their board drafting skills, building on what they learned previously. #### Direct Instruction (10 minutes) 1. **Demonstration of Basic Shapes (5 minutes)**: - Show how to draw basic shapes (rectangle, triangle, and circle) using a T-square, set square, and compass. - Emphasize the importance of clean, accurate lines. 2. **Line Types and Applications (5 minutes)**: - Discuss different types of lines (e.g., construction lines, object lines, center lines, hidden lines) and their uses in technical drawings. #### Guided Practice (10 minutes) 1. **Group Activity (10 minutes)**: - Divide students into small groups and distribute drawing materials. - Each group will draw a simple geometric design that incorporates a variety of shapes and line types. - Walk around the room to provide assistance and feedback. #### Independent Practice (7 minutes) 1. **Individual Drawing Task (7 minutes)**: - Assign students to draw a simple technical object (e.g., a cube or a simple machine part) using the techniques discussed. - Encourage precision and neatness in their work. #### Conclusion and Review (3 minutes) 1. **Student Presentations (2 minutes)**: Allow a few students to share their drawings with the class and explain the techniques they used. 2. **Summarize Key Points (1 minute)**: Briefly reiterate the importance of accurate measurements, clean lines, and proper use of drafting tools. ### Assessment - **Formative Assessment**: Observe students during group and individual practice, providing guidance and feedback. - **Summative Assessment**: Collect students' drawings at the end of the lesson to review and provide constructive feedback. ### Homework - Assign students a small drawing project to be completed at home, focusing on the same techniques they practiced in class. They should draw a more complex shape or object and bring it to the next class for review. ### Additional Notes - Ensure that all students have equal access to drawing materials. - Encourage students to ask questions and seek help if they are struggling with any concepts or techniques. - Emphasize the importance of patience and practice in mastering board drafting skills. ### Reflection - After the lesson, reflect on what worked well and what could be improved. Adapt future lessons based on student performance and feedback.
