Lines Relationship

     Last week grade three students learned about the "Lines Relationship".
     In this new lesson students learned to identify and classify lines as intersecting, perpendicular, and parallel.
    The session started by triggering students' prior knowledge about the differences between a line and a line segment. Then, I asked them what will happen if two lines or lines segments cross each other?
    Then, students modeled intersecting, parallel, and perpendicular lines by their rulers and pencils. They also gave examples by things found in their daily lives.
    Finally students watched a flipchart that contained an interesting game about "Lines Relationship".
