CLASS VI ENGLISH
1. DESIGNING E-PICTIONARY
A Pictionary is a visual dictionary which has pictures to exemplify the meaning of the words.
Students are required to read the mentioned chapters and find out 30 difficult words. They can use PPT or Canva.com to design the E-Pictionary. Along with the suitable illustrations, they need to construct meaningful sentences for each word for better comprehension.
Read the instructions given below:
STEP 1 : Read the following chapters from HONEYSUCKLE and A PACT WITH THE SUN: · An Indian-American Woman in Space · A Pact With the Sun · A Game of Chance · The Banyan Tree · The Shepherd’s Treasure
STEP 2 : Find out 30 difficult words out of the above chapters.
STEP 3 : Search the meaning of the words and suitable illustrations.
STEP 4 : Construct meaningful sentences of each word.
· Font – Use your creativity
· Font Size – 16

MATHS
Topic: Symmetry
Symmetry
If two or more parts of a figure are identical after folding or flipping then it is said to be symmetry. To be symmetrical the two halves of a shape must be of same shape and size.
If the shape is not symmetrical then it is said to be asymmetrical.
Line of Symmetry
It is an imaginary line which divides the image into two equal halves. It could be horizontal, vertical or diagonal. There could be one or more than one line of symmetry in a figure.
Lines of Symmetry for Regular Polygons
If all the sides and angles of a polygon are equal then it is said to be a regular polygon. Like the equilateral triangle, square etc.
All the regular polygons are symmetrical shapes.
In the regular polygon, the number of lines of symmetry is the same as the number of its sides.
Reflection Symmetry
If we draw a dotted line which gives the mirror reflection of the other half of the image then it is reflection symmetry. It is the same as basic symmetry which tells us that if the dotted line divides the image into two equal halves then it is the reflective symmetry of the figure.
