Activity Name: “Classify the Set”
Instructions:
1. Greet the students in energetic tone. Face expressions should be happy,
enthusiastic and in sync with the voice tone.
2. Teacher Action:
Teacher writes:
A = {Months having 35 days}
B = {1, 2, 3, 4}
C = {4, 3, 2, 1}
D = {Natural Numbers}
Teacher asks:
• Which set has no elements?
• Which sets are equal?
• Which set is finite?
• Which set is infinite?
Student Task:
Students classify each set and justify their answer.
Expected Response:
A → Empty Set
B and C → Equal Sets
B → Finite Set
D → Infinite Set
Teacher concludes:
“Today we will apply these concepts while solving Exercise 1.2.”
( OR)
So, let’s watch a small and interesting video.

Step 1: Recall Previous Concepts (3 Minutes)
Teacher asks:
• What is an Empty Set?
• What makes two sets Equal?
• How do we identify Finite and Infinite Sets?
Students answer and revise previous concepts.
Teacher explains:
Today we will apply these concepts while solving Exercise 1.2.
Step 2: Reading and Understanding Questions (3 Minutes)
Teacher explains:
Before solving:
• Read the question carefully.
• Identify the type of set involved.
• Observe given conditions.
• Select the correct method.
Teacher demonstrates one example.
Step 3: Solving Concept-based Questions (4 Minutes)
Teacher demonstrates:
Question:
Identify the type of set:
A = {Months having 40 days}
Teacher explains:
Since no such month exists,
A = Empty Set
Question:
Determine whether:
A = {1, 2, 3}
B = {3, 1, 2}
Teacher explains:
Both contain the same elements.
Therefore, A = B
Students solve similar examples.
Step 4: Solving Application Questions (5 Minutes)
Teacher demonstrates:
Question:
Identify whether the following are Finite or Infinite:
a) Days in a week
b) Natural Numbers
Solution:
Days in a week → Finite Set
Natural Numbers → Infinite Set
Teacher explains reasoning and encourages discussion.
Step 5: Guided Practice and Discussion (3 Minutes)
Students solve:
1. Identify the type of set:
{Prime numbers divisible by 8}
2. Determine whether:
{a, e, i} and {i, a, e}
3. Classify:
Set of stars in the sky
Teacher reviews answers and summarizes:
Exercise 1.2 helps students classify, compare, and apply different types of sets
correctly.
Closure: 7min
Teacher will discuss Example 8 given in NCERT book.
Home Work:
1. Think and Answer:
A = {Letters in the word “SCHOOL”}
B = {S, C, H, O, L}
Are A and B Equal Sets?
Justify your answer.
2. Can a Set be both Empty and Finite at the same time?
Explain with one example.
3. A school creates the following groups:
P = Students scoring more than 100 marks in Mathematics
Q = Students present in Class XI
R = Natural Numbers
Identify:
• Empty Set
• Finite Set
• Infinite Set
Give reason for each answer.
Activity:
Create one collection from daily life which appears Infinite but is actually
Finite.
Explain your thinking.
Learning Outcome:
After the completion of the lesson, students will be able to:
• Apply concepts of Empty Set, Equal Set, Finite Set, and Infinite Set while
solving Exercise 1.2.
• Analyze and classify sets based on their properties and characteristics.
• Compare sets and justify answers using mathematical reasoning.
• Solve exercise questions using correct notation and representation.
• Develop logical and critical thinking through concept-based problem
solving.
• Connect set concepts with practical examples and situations.
Real life Connect:
Students observe that classification of sets helps in organizing and analyzing
information in daily life.
Examples:
• A movie watchlist may appear unlimited but contains a Finite number of
movies.
• An online search for products may show endless results but each page
contains a Finite collection.
• Two shopping lists written in different order can still represent Equal Sets.
• A cancelled event registration list represents an Empty Set.
Teacher asks:
“Can a collection appear Infinite but actually be Finite?”
Students discuss examples and conclude that understanding set types helps
make better decisions while organizing real-world information.
