Lesson Plan 2 September 24, 2015 Mathematics Kindergarten 30 Minutes Preliminary Planning Topic/Central Focus: Students will continue learning about 2D shapes with the key focus being on the attributes of triangles in this lesson. They will also learn that triangles can be represented by many real world objects. They will show them triangles can be represented in many different orientations Prior Student Knowledge: The students have been working with shapes and have been assessed on their current knowledge of the basic shapes. I used a pre-assessment that I created called Which Does Not Belong, to assess their current knowledge of the attributes of triangles. The assessment showed that students are familiar with triangles, but …show more content…
This school is in a diverse suburban town south of Chicago. The curriculum, as well as the Illinois Common Core for kindergarten are followed to provide the proper education for all students. There may be a few limitations and conditions that may impact the execution of this lesson. This is only the third week of school, so the students have not been tested on their learning or behavioral abilities. However, I do know that I have one student that has a medical 504 plan and others demonstrate that they may need additional support. I have modified my lesson plans to meet obvious needs of my students and if additional time or help is needed, I did plan for some flexibility in this …show more content…
Explain, “You will be doing the same thing. You will be exploring with your elbow partner some everyday things and match them with a triangle that has the same size and orientation just like I have shown you.” 7. Ask the students, “Come and get your cut outs and find your elbow partners and sit down in your chosen areas.” 8. Explain, “I suggest that you sort the cut outs by size first and then try to find the object that has similar size. Then turn them in different ways holding them together to see if they fit. If they do put them aside as a match. Then find the next match the same way. Remember to talk and work with your elbow partner to find all the matches. You can start now.” 9. Walk around, observe, and ask students for clarification on how they are looking for matches. 10. Give students feedback and assistance as needed. 11. Tell the students when they have a few minutes left. 12. Say, “Friends, you did great! Everyone found most of the matches and can work with these at a later time. Put all everything in the bags and when done go to your assigned seats.” Transition: Say, “Now we’re going to work on a worksheet. We’ll explore triangles more and practice writing the number
1. Children will be at the circle rug finishing the morning meeting of the day. 2. Tell the children they are going to learn a new song that will help them with their letter sounds. (Ell students are familiar with the original tunes before starting) 3.
A Bad Case of Stripes, by David Shannon, is a story about a young girl named Camilla Cream, who loves lima beans. She keeps this hidden from her classmates out of fear of what others might think of her. On the first day of school, Camilla wakes up and discovers she is completely covered in rainbow stripes. Throughout the story, Camilla’s skin begins to take on the appearance of everything people says she has. For example, someone says “checkerboards” and her skin develops a checkerboard patten.
Today’s practice was two grass loops, going around the baseball fields from the Concessions building to the bleachers and back to the Concessions for more or to stop. Compared to the runs we have done out in the community, grass loops are the easiest our practice will get. Today is the race, but we still have our classes, as this is on a Wednesday, and to be precise, October 28th, 2015. We’re departing at 12:30 p.m. during fifth period, but we leave our class earlier at 12:15, only five minutes after class begins, to head to the locker room, change, and buy lunch. It is fifth period now, and fellow classmates and teammates Sebastian, Jonathan and I are anxiously waiting for the five minutes to pass.
Supporting the progress of learning shapes is vital for children as this is a skill they will use as children all the way through to
I also found that a multiple of 2 is by a multiple of 3 it will make a fish like 4 and 6 will make a fish shape. I also found out that if the dimensions are
Loser, Hand Me Down, Cheap Shot, Rat, That Guy, Nerd. Kids throw names at me faster than lightning strikes trees. A good student can be another ’s nightmare.
Closure: (Summarize the lesson with students, provide further opportunities for learning, and build a bridge to the next lesson.) “Great job toddlers! I love how you all participated in the shape hunt with me to learn about shapes around the room! Thank you for participating in the shape hunt with me.” “Can anyone remember what shapes we found in the classroom today?”
I would do this in a role playing activity where one student is frustrated about something that another student did and then they practice the three steps. Me On A Map: By Joan
On Wednesday, the students did an activity that involved them reading scenarios (stories that actually happened) and they had to create bow tie that had a picture or list of their goals and aspirations on them. The purpose of the activity is to show the students that one mistake could easily cost them their lives. After the activity, the cooperating teacher gave a
Spring, summer, winter, and fall! We all have that season that’s either special to us or the way the season looks. Imagine yourself driving down the road, what changes? Trees! It’s the season kid’s start going back to school, Festival time, and Thanksgiving.
For me, eighth grade has been a year of change. It sounds cheesy, but it is the most fitting description for this entire school year. Over the course of this year, my behavior, my environment, and life in general has changed. They have all changed, but maybe not for the better or for worse. My environment has literally changed this school year, as I’ve moved to a new location.
Geometry in Everyday Careers Geometry is more than just a math class. Geometry is a basic subject of math that teaches knowledge of shapes, planes, points and more. Not only does it offer quick thinking skills but it also gives you a deeper understanding of statistics. It can be applied everyday or in everyday careers. Many jobs require taking geometry and others involve it every day.
1. There is a need for studentsto understand and be able to construct geometric figures using a compass and straightedge. By Hayley McMillon 2. ~Summary ~There is a need for students to understand and be able to construct geometric figures using astraightedge and compass. I chose to defend this argument, because I believe that studentsshould be able to understand and make constructions using a compass, straightedge, andpaper.
AL-ALEX-2008.ARTS.3.VA.1 Students will first draw a picture of the elderly at the senior citizens home. The elderly may be playing board games, bingo, eating lunch, etc. Students will then be able to paint or color the picture that they drew. The pictures will be placed on the bulletin board after they are completed. AL-ALEX-HEAL-2009.3.2 Students with the teacher will discuss different components of flu prevention.
Facts about Graphic Organizers and Partnering Strategies “Sequential Graphic Organizer” & “T-Charts” “Brainstorming” & “Question and Predict” BENEFITS CHALLENGES Sequential Graphic Organizer Assists in concept development, but is strongest in presenting the order of events or actions. Does not visually display relationships or concepts. Is useful in strengthening higher levels of thinking through applying logical thinking. Any confusion in order leads to wrong results Has a specific beginning and ending In mathematics it organizes the steps especially for the students with struggle in the logical intelligence. T-Charts Is a conceptual graphic organizer, used to visualize concepts and relationships.
