Topic Teaching strategy 25th March 2020 to 3rd April 2020

Operations on Sets Day 1:

 A set is a group or collection of objects or numbers.
 Sets are usually symbolized by uppercase, italicized, boldface letters such as A, B, S,
Worksheet 1 or Z.
 Each object or number in a set is called a member or element of the set. Examples
include the set of all computers in the world, the set of all apples on a tree, and the
set of all irrational numbers between 0 and 1.
 Read the information given on page number 1 to 3 of the textbook.
 Note that:
 Set is a collection, means it can have more than one member in it.
 Well-defined means the elements have some specific property so that we can
identify whether or not an object belongs to a set. For example a set of even
numbers, a set of odd numbers, etc.
 Distinct means, all the members are different from each other, there is no
repetition.
 {a,b,pen,5} is not a set, because the members do not share a common property.
In other words it is not well defined.
 {3,6,9,12} is a set, because all the members are multiples of 3.
 {1,2,1,2} is not a set, because there is repetition of elements.
 Watch the following video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3-A0O42Lyo.
 While studying sets it is important to note that:
 The objects of a set are called members or elements of the set.
 For example there are 3 objects in the set A = {Hassan, Ahmed, Bilal}
 The elements of a set are written inside curly brackets { }.
 There is a simple notation for sets. You simply list each element, separated by a
comma, if the set elements are making a sequence then after writing few
elements put dots to show continuation.
 The symbol ∈ is read as “belongs to”.
 The symbol ∉ means “does not belong to”.

Day 2:
 A set that is fully contained within another set is called a subset.
 For example:
If A={1,3,5}, B={1,5} , C = {1, 3, 5} and D = {1, 4}
 Set C= {1, 3, 5} is a subset of A.
 Set B is a proper subset of A since all the elements of B are also the elements
of A and the number of elements of B are less than those of A. A proper subset
of a set A is a subset of A that is not equal to A. In other words, if B is a proper
subset of A, then all elements of B are in A but A contains at least one element
that is not in B.
 Ask yourself; Is C a proper subset of A?
 No it is not a proper subset of A since C=A.
 Also note that the set D={1,4} is not even a subset of A, since 4 is not an element of
A.
 Solve Q#1 of worksheet number 1.

Day 3:
 There are some special types of sets. For example:
 Finite sets: they have a limited number of elements. For example the number of
days in a week or a in a month.
 Infinite sets: they have an unlimited number of elements. For example the set of
natural numbers larger than 10. Since counting is infinite, the number of natural
numbers larger than 10 are infinite.
 Unit set: it only contains one element. For example set A = {5}. Set A only has
one element.
 Empty set: it has no elements. It is written as {} or ∅.
Day 4:
 There are other special types of sets, such as:
 Disjoint sets: if there are no common elements between sets, those sets are called
disjoin sets. For examples set A = {1, 2, 3} set B = {4, 5, 6} are disjoint sets,
none of their elements are same.
 Overlapping sets: if two or more sets have at least one set in common. For
example A = { 1, 3, 5, 7} and B = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}, now A and B are overlapping
sets because they have two common elements: 3 and 5.
 Equal sets are sets that have the same elements for example A = { 2, 4, 6 } and
B = { first 3 multiples of 2}.
 Equivalent sets are sets that have the same number of elements. For example A
= { 1, 2, 3} and B = {4, 5, 6}
 Non-equivalent sets are sets that cannot be paired in one to one correspondence.
For example A = {1, 2, 3} and B = {6, 7, 8, 9}
 Union of sets: A set containing all the elements of A and B is called the union set
of A and B. No element is repeated in the union of sets.
Example: B = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 } and C = { 6, 7, 8, 9 }
The union of set B and C, also written as A∪C = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 }
 Intersection of sets: A set containing the common elements of two or more sets.
Example: C = { 2, 3, 5, 6, 8 } and D = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 }
So intersection of set C and D, also written as C∩D = {2, 3, 5, 6, 8}

Day 5:
 Solve Q#3 of worksheet number 1.

Decimal Numbers Day 1:

 Remember that fractions consist of two parts; a numerator
and a denominator.
Worksheet 2  Decimals are fractions which have denominators with
powers of 10.
 Each fraction can be expressed as a decimal.
 To find the fractions we need to divide the numerator by the
denominator.
8
 To convert we need to do the long division shown on the
25
right.

1 1
 Other examples include = 0.5 and = 0.25.

 Solve Q#1 of worksheet number 2.

Day 2:
 We have learnt how to convert fractions into decimals. We can also convert decimals
into fractions.
 The following steps are used to convert decimals into fractions:
 Step 1: Convert the decimal to fraction using tenths, hundredths, thousandths,
etc. depending on the number of decimal places.
For 1.75 we will divide by 100.
For 2.2 we will divide by 10.
For 3.55 we will divide by 100.
For 155.5 we will divide by 10.
 Step 2: Simplify the fraction part by dividing the denominator with the
numerator.
 Solve Q#2 of worksheet number 2.

Day 3:
 To write a decimal as a percent, multiply it by 100, then add on the % symbol. To
multiply a decimal by 100, move the decimal point two places to the right.
 Do not forget to include the percent symbol when writing a percent.
 So the steps to convert decimal numbers into percentages are:
 Step 1: Convert the decimal into fraction, with 100 as a denominator.
 Step 2: Multiply by 100%. Write it as a percentage.
Example 1: Express 0.95 as a percentage.
95
Step 1: 0.95 = (since the decimal point is after two places we divided by 100)
100
95
Step 2: x 100% = 95%.
100
Example 2: Express 0.2 as a percentage.
2
Step 1: 0.2 = (since the decimal point is after one place we divided by 10)
10
2
Step 2: x 100% = 20%.
10
 Solve Q#3 of worksheet number 2.

Day 4:
 Terminating decimals are decimals that have a finite number of digits after a decimal
point for example 0.5, 0.25, 0.15 etc.
 To find terminating decimals we simply divide the numerator by the denominator.
 Non terminating decimals are decimals that have an infinite number of digits after a
decimal point. For example if we divide 1 by 3 we get a non-terminating decimal like
0.33333333…

Day 5:
 Solve Q#4 of worksheet number 2.
