SECOND TERM MATHEMATICS SCHEME OF WORK FOR PRIMARY SIX (6)/ BASIC SIX (6)

WEEK 1 TOPIC: REVISION OF 1ST TERM’S WORK

WEEK 2 TOPIC: MONEY (RATES, TAXES, SHARES AND DIVIDENDS)

LESSON OBJECTIVE: Pupils should be able to:

Solve problems on taxes and Rates on population and economic
Consequences.
Rate – means what the government Provides for her people.
Example
Agege Local government charges N5.50 monthly for the user: Find
the total rent collected monthly From
(A). 50 stalls (B) 160 stalls
(A). Monthly rate collected for N50

Taxes: This is the money that Government uses to build schools,
Hospitals, roads etc. Example Tax deducted from the taxable Income of an employee is 35K on Every N1. Find the tax paid if the Taxable income is N4,500 = (4,500×35)K = 1,575.00K = 1,575.00

Solve problem on buying and selling of shares and dividends.

Shares: The amount needed is divided into units and each unit is called a share. Example
A metal manufacturing company Sells some of its 40K share to the
Public who are ready to buy in Multiples of 200.
(i). what is the cost of 800 shares?
(ii). How many shares can I buy With N1, 250?
Cost of one share = 40K
Cost of 800 Share = 40×800

Dividends This is the amount made from the goods sold at the
End of the year. The profit is called Dividend.

Conversion of currencies in Different countries have different
Currencies e.g. Nigeria = Naira
America = Dollar
Britain = Pound
QUANTITATIVE REASONING: Solve problems on quantitative aptitude
Involving Currencies.

WEEK 3 TOPIC: A. LENGTH

LESSON OBJECTIVE: Pupils should be able to:

Measure the height using the Meter rule, the length of a pupil in the class.
Such as 1.26m i.e. 1m.26cm.
Measure the distances use the Meter rule for short distances and
Measuring tapes for long Distances e.g. the distances of
(i). Boy to the teacher’s desk, Measured in kilometers (Km) is
4.326Km i.e. 4Km 326m
Measuring the distance angle: right angles, acute angles. Drawing of square on the sides of a Right angled.

QUANTITATIVE REASONING: Pupils should be able to solve quantitative aptitude on
Related to Length.

WEEK 4 TOPIC: PERIMETER (REGULAR & IRREGULAR SHAPES)

LESSON OBJECTIVE: Pupils should be able to:

Find the find the Perimeter of rectangles.
A rectangle has length (L) and Breadth (B) perimeter of a rectangle
= (L + B + L + B) = L + L + B + B
= 2 (L + B)

Find the area of a rectangle
Find the area and perimeter of two Rectangles

QUANTITATIVE REASONING

WEEK 5 TOPICS: AREA (TRAPEZIUM)

LESSON OBJECTIVE: Pupils should be able to:

Define a trapezium: A trapezium is a Four sided figures with one pair of its
Opposite sides parallel.
Calculate the land areas in Hectares Large areas of land
Are measured using hectares e.g. 1 hectares = 1000m2

WEEK 6 TOPIC: VOLUME – VOLUME OF PRISMS, CYLINDERS AND SPHERES

QUANTITATIVE APTITUDE

LESSON OBJECTIVE: Pupils should be able to:

Calculate the volume of prisms this is a triangular Prism for any prism
with uniform cross section the volume.

V = Area of cross section × Heigth
Example: Find the volume of the triangular prism Where the Area of Cross – Section is 20cm2 and the length is 5cm.

Volume of cylinder and a Sphere. A cylinder is a prism With a circular Cross – Section
Volume of Cylinder = Area of Circle × height

e.g. Find the volume of a cylinder whose base radius is 5cm and
the height is 24cm Radius = 5cm
Height = 14cm
Volume of a cylinder = piexrsquareh

(x = 22⁄7)

QUANTITATIVE APTITUDE: They should be able to solve quantitative aptitude related to volume of prisms and Sphere.

WEEK 7 TOPIC: CAPACITY

LESSON OBJECTIVE: Pupils will be able to:

Express capacity in 1 cm3 = iml

1000cm3 = 1 liter = 1000ml
1 liter of water weights 1 Kilogram (Kg)

10ml of water weights = 1000g
1000cm3 of water weighs 1Kg

Addition and subtraction of Capacity
Multiplication and division of Capacity

e.g

A taxi driver uses 69 liters of petrol a day. Find the amount of petrol he uses in 28 days =69 × 28 = 1932 liters
How many times can a Bucket be filled from a barrel of 936 liters if the bucket holds 24 Liters at a time?
936 ÷ 24 liters = 39 times

QUANTITATIVE APTITUDE.

WEEK 8 TOPICS: WEIGHT

LESSON OBJECTIVE: Pupils should be able to:

Express weight in grams, Kilograms and tones
1000 – 1Kg; 1000Kg – 1 tonne etc.
Obtain measurement of Pupils weight, books, stones
Etc. Using weight scale.
Add and subtract weight e.g.

(A). 7.625Kg + 5.396 = 13.021Kg
(B). 8.4Kg – 5.625 = 8.400Kg
5.625Kg

Multiply and divide Questions on weight

QUANTITATIVE REASONING: Solve words problems on weight

WEEK 9 TOPIC: TIME

LESSON OBJECTIVE: Pupils should be able to:

Tell time in seconds, minutes and hours
i.e. conversion e.g.

60 seconds – 1 minute
60 minutes – 1 hour etc.

Convert 130 seconds to minute and seconds 130: 60 = 2 min 10 sec.

Add and subtract time correctly.
Multiply and divide time Correctly

(A). 2h 16 min × 7
= h min
2 16
× 7
15 52
2h × 60 = 120
16min × 1 = 16
136 × 16
= 952 ÷ 60
= 15h 52 min

Read time table of journeys By train and aero planes, class Time – table e.g.
12 hour – clock 24 hour clock
8.00am 07.00 hours
2.30pm 14.30 hours
10.00am 10.00 hours
(a). Using 12 hour – clock ( a.m And p.m)
(b). Using 24 hour – clock (write In 4 digits)
estimate standard time for races 100m, 400m, 800m etc. using second hand.

QUANTITATIVE REASONING: Solve problem on quantitative
Aptitude.

WEEK 10 TOPIC: SPEED

LESSON OBJECTIVE: Pupils should be able to:

State the meaning of speed as the distance travelled per
Time taken to cover the distance e.g. Speed = Distance: time
taken to cover it S = D/T Km/h, M/S, m/min etc.
Time while speed and Distance is known
Find distance while time and speed are given.

Distance = Speed × Time
D = (S × T) Km; m
