Chalk board:
This is the first and foremost of all the items of mathematical equipment. It
must be there even if any thing else is not there. This is the minimum
equipment. But sometime it need not even be included in the list of special
equipment, as it is a taken for granted part of every classroom. Chalkboard
may verily be called the second tongue of the mathematics teacher.
Charts:
Charts can cover a vast range of mathematical topics, such as coins, weights
and measures: prices of different kinds of articles; school and class pass
percentage; different kinds of geometrical figures and their qualities;
different kinds of angles, triangles, polygons, quadrilaterals: different types
of bank drafts or cheques; arithmetical terminology such as fraction,
average, area, profit and loss, ratio etc
Filmstrips:
Various filmstrips can be used to give a new color and attraction to different
ideas of mathematics. The resourceful teacher can obtain them from the
market. The advantages lie in the fact that they don’t burden the mind, can
be shown in off hours, and teach the subjects in an effective manner. The
mathematics teacher should seek the cooperation of the science teacher in
using these aids.
Radio:
Broadcasting stations can also help, if the school possesses a radio set and
the stations broadcast programmes of mathematical interest .these broadcast
can relate important incidents form the lives of great mathematicians .some
take by expert can be arranged on the place of mathematics in daily life, and
in industry and trades. The history of the development of mathematics can
also be a topic, and special emphasis can also be ladino the discoveries made
by mathematicians. Similarly news pertaining to market rates, temerpature
and rainfall, broadcast by radio stations can serve as source of collection of
data.
