Curricular Statement:
Develops various dimensions of factual, conceptual, procedural and metacognitive
knowledge, process skillsand attitude on the different types of teeth through meaningful verbal
expression and evaluation by questioning.
Content Analysis:
a) Terms:
Jaw bone, socket, milk teeth, permanent teeth, widom teeth, incisors, carines, pre molar,
molars, enamel.
b) Facts:
Human beings have a set of 32 permanent teeth.
Human beings teeth are of four different types.
Each tooth is fixed in a socket in the jaw bone.
c) Concepts:
The first set of teeth formed during childhood is called milk teeth
Human teeth are of our different types.
Each tooth is fixed in a socket in the jaw bone.
d) Learning outcome in terms of specifications.
Enable the pupil to develop

Expected Pupil Response

1. Preparation
Teacher begins the class by asking a
question
Can you say which one help us to break Yes, Teeth
food particles in our mouth
So let us see the different types of teeth
in our mouth and its functions
2. Presentation
Teacher presents a chart and explains
Students listen carefully
about teeth
Teeth are the beautiful white structures
which give shapes to our mouth, make
our smile attraction and moreover helps
in chewing our food. In human beings,
the mouth comprises of a set of 32 teeth,
a tongue and 3 pairs of salivary glands
These are called organs of digestion in
the mouth.(C.B). Each tooth is fixed in

a socket (C.B) in the jaw bone. The first

set of teeth formed during childhood is Students listen carefully and noted down the
called milk teeth ( C.B) in the jaw bone. main points
The first set of teeth fall off by about 7
12 years and permanent teeth (CB)
grow in its place Human beings have a
set of 32 permanent teeth Of these 4
grow only after attaining adulthood.
These are known as wisdom teeth(C.B).
Each tooth I made of dentine (C.B) and
a hard calcium rich material. The
outermost covering of the teeth is
enamel. This is the hardest material
formed in the body.
Activity I
Indicators
1. In human beings, the mouth comprises
of a set of .. teeth
2. Name the two types of teeth found in
human beings?
3. Which is the hardest material formed in
the body?
4. Each tooth is fixed in a .

1. 32
2. Milk teeth and permanent teeth
3. Enamel
4. Socket

Teacher ask the students to do the activity and

present the results. The teacher consolidates
using necessary points.
Teacher says by displaying chart, human teeth
Students observe the chart carefully
are of four different types. They are
1. Incisors
2. Canines
3. Pre-molars
4. Molars
The incisors help in cutting the food
into pieces.
Canines helps in tearing the food
Pre-molar and molar helps to chew the
food
The tongue helps in chewing the food and
recognizes the taste. It is the taste buds that

helps in differentiating the taste.

Activity II
Indicators
1. What are the different types of teeth
found in human beings?
2. What are the functions of Incisors and
Canines?

1. Incisors, Canines, Pre-molars, Molars

2. Incisors Cutting the food
Canines Tearing the food

3. Which teeth are used in chewing the

food?
4. What is the function of tongue?

3. Pre-molars and molars

4. Tongue helps in chewing the food and
recognizing the taste.

After the student read out the answer, the

teacher consolidates.
Recapitulation
Teacher asks students to frame
questions and ask one another.

Ans. Dentine.

Follow Up Activities
1. Draw the diagram of different types of
teeth and write down its functions?
