              Objective:  To explore the concept of average of two or more numbers or
                           quantities.

              Materials required:  Square paper, 3 different colours, sketch pen,  cello

                                      tape and pair of scissors.

              Procedure:
                     Š  Get into the pairs.


                     Š  Take a square paper and cut paper strips of 2, 7 and 12 squares.












                     Š  Colour the strips in 3 different colours.












                     Š  Join these 3 strips with the help of cello tape to make one long strip.





                     Š  Fold and cut the long strip into 3 equal parts.













                     Š  Now, count the number of squares of each strip.

                     Here, each strip is 7 squares long.


                    So, the average of 2, 7 and 12 is 7.

                     Š  Repeat the activity with other pairs to find the average of other numbers.
