[b]Topic:[/b] Y- axis or x = 0[br] [b]Objective:[/b][list][*]Students will identify the y-axis on the Cartesian plane.[/*][*]Students will understand that all points on the y-axis have x = 0.[/*][*]Students will plot and interpret points lying on the y-axis.[/*][/list][b]5E Model Lesson Plan:[/b]1. [b]Engage (5 mins):[/b][list][*]Ask: “What happens if you stand at a place where you move only up or down and not sideways?[/*][*]Show a coordinate grid and ask students to guess what x = 0 means.[i]- Use real-life example:[/i] Elevator moving up/down without going sideways.[/*][/list]2. [b]Explore (10 mins):[/b][list][*]Give students graph paper[/*][*]Ask them to plot points like (5, 2), (2, -3), (2, 5),[/*][*]Let them connect the points and observe the vertical line formed.[/*][/list][br]3. [b]Explain (10 mins):[/b][list][*]Explain that this vertical line is the [b]y-axis[/b] and all points on it have [b]x = 0[/b].[/*][*]Write the equation: [b]x = 0 ⇒ y-axis[/b][/*][*]Label the axes clearly on the board and mark a few points.[/*][/list]4. [b]Elaborate (10 mins):[/b][list][*]Provide a list of coordinates. Students identify which lie on the y-axis.[/*][*]Use GeoGebra or graphing app to show how the y-axis looks dynamically. (this file already you have )[/*][/list]5. [b]Evaluate :[/b][list][*]Ask students to:[br]a) Write the definition of y-axis in their own words.[br]b) Plot 3 new points on the y-axis.[br]c) Write 2 properties of y-axis.b[/*][/list]✅ [i]Quick Quiz:[br][/i]1. What is the x-value of any point on the axis. Is (0, -5) on the y-axisBy : Rakesh Ghimire
