Tujuan

Durasi: (10 - 15 minutes)

This part aims to introduce students to fractions in relation to geometric shapes, focusing on the significance of dividing whole shapes into equal segments. Additionally, it seeks to enhance socioemotional skills like self-awareness and empathy by understanding the emotions that come up during the learning journey. This foundation is crucial for creating a meaningful and emotionally balanced learning experience, setting students up for the practical tasks that will follow.

Tujuan Utama

1. Enable students to apply the concept of fractions to various geometric shapes.

2. Encourage understanding of dividing whole shapes into equal parts, such as pizza slices or sections of a plot of land.

3. Foster recognition and comprehension of the emotions that arise when learning new mathematical concepts.

Pendahuluan

Durasi: (10 - 15 minutes)

Kegiatan Pemanasan Emosional

Calm Breathing

Deep Breathing and Relaxation

1. Ask students to sit comfortably, with their feet flat on the floor and hands resting in their laps.

2. Explain that they'll practice a deep breathing technique for relaxation and focus. Encourage them to close their eyes or find a fixed point to gaze at.

3. Guide them to inhale deeply through their noses, counting to four, and feeling their bellies expand.

4. Instruct them to hold their breath for a moment, counting mentally to four.

5. Then, ask them to exhale slowly through their mouths, counting to four again while feeling their bellies contract.

6. Repeat this cycle five times, encouraging students to concentrate on their breathing and let go of distractions.

7. Once finished, prompt students to gently open their eyes or redirect their focus to the surroundings, feeling more at peace and attentive.

Kontekstualisasi Konten

The study of fractions is highly relevant in our daily lives. For instance, when we cut a pizza into slices, we are applying the concept of fractions by dividing a whole into equal sections. Understanding fractions helps us make better decisions, like sharing land with friends or dividing a birthday cake fairly. Moreover, as students learn about fractions, they will also cultivate vital skills such as self-awareness and social awareness. They will start recognizing their own emotions throughout the learning process and understand the value of collaboration in problem-solving, creating an atmosphere of respect and cooperation.

Pengembangan

Durasi: (60 - 75 minutes)

Panduan Teori

Durasi: (20 - 25 minutes)

1. Concept of Fraction: Explain that a fraction is a representation of a part of a whole. It consists of a numerator (the top part) and a denominator (the bottom part), indicating how many equal parts the whole has been divided into.

2. Geometric Shapes: Introduce geometric shapes (like circles, squares, and rectangles) and demonstrate how they can be evenly divided. Use relatable examples, such as slicing a pizza or partitioning a piece of land.

3. Fraction Representation: Show how to visually represent fractions using geometric shapes. For example, take a circle and divide it into 4 equal parts, shading one part to demonstrate 1/4.

4. Fraction Simplification: Explain how to simplify fractions, illustrating that 2/4 simplifies to 1/2 with clear visual examples.

5. Equivalent Fractions: Teach that different fractions can express the same value. For instance, show that 2/4 and 1/2 are equivalent fractions through visual aids.

6. Addition and Subtraction of Fractions: Introduce the concepts of adding and subtracting fractions with the same denominators using relatable examples like 1/4 + 2/4 = 3/4.

7. Practical Application: Explain how fractions are used in everyday scenarios, such as cooking recipes, splitting bills, or measuring land.

Kegiatan dengan Umpan Balik Sosioemosional

Durasi: (30 - 35 minutes)

Dividing Geometric Shapes

Students will implement their understanding of fractions by dividing geometric shapes into equal segments, like pizza slices or plots of land. This hands-on activity will reinforce theoretical concepts and foster teamwork.

1. Divide the students into groups of 3 to 4.

2. Hand out sheets of paper featuring drawings of geometric shapes (circles, squares, rectangles).

3. Instruct each group to divide the shapes into different fractions (1/2, 1/3, 1/4, etc.) and color the sections accordingly.

4. Have each group present their divisions and explain the reasoning behind their fractions.

5. During the presentations, highlight the significance of teamwork and recognizing the emotions involved in the process, such as the frustration in getting divisions right or the joy in completing the task.

Diskusi dan Umpan Balik Kelompok

After the activity, bring the students together for a group discussion. Use the RULER method to guide the conversation: 💬

Recognize: Ask students how they felt during the activity. Were they able to identify emotions like frustration, satisfaction, or collaboration? Understand: Discuss the reasons behind those feelings. How did teamwork shape their emotions? Were there moments of disagreement or unity? Label: Help students name their emotions correctly. For example, if someone felt frustrated, guide them to acknowledge and label that feeling. Express: Encourage students to properly express their emotions. They can share coping strategies for negative feelings and how they felt upon completing the task. Regulate: Discuss methods to manage emotions. How can they stay calm and work cooperatively in future tasks? Stimulate reflection on the importance of self-control and social awareness.

Kesimpulan

Durasi: (15 - 20 minutes)

Refleksi dan Regulasi Emosional

Encourage students to reflect by writing in their notebooks or sharing in a circle about the challenges faced during the lesson. They should contemplate their feelings while working with fractions and dividing shapes, acknowledging emotions like frustration, achievement, or teamwork. Prompt them to think about how they handled these emotions and what strategies proved effective for maintaining calmness and cooperation.

Tujuan: This section aims to promote self-evaluation and emotional regulation. Written or spoken reflections help students identify effective strategies for overcoming challenges. By recognizing and labeling their emotions, students enhance their self-awareness and social awareness, critical skills for personal and academic growth.

Pandangan ke Masa Depan

As a final activity, motivate students to set personal and academic goals tied to the lesson content. Emphasize the value of having clear objectives to continue practicing and applying the concept of fractions in various contexts. Students can jot down these goals in their notebooks and share them with the class, fostering a supportive atmosphere.

Penetapan Tujuan:

1. Practice dividing various geometric shapes at home.

2. Apply the concept of fractions in daily scenarios, such as splitting food or measuring ingredients in recipes.

3. Collaborate on future projects to hone teamwork skills.

4. Regularly reflect on how they feel during challenging activities and utilize learned emotional regulation strategies. Tujuan: This subsection aims to bolster students' independence and the practical application of their learning. By establishing personal and academic goals, students commit to ongoing development, encouraging responsibility, self-management, and perseverance, which are vital for future success.
