Teacher Name: | Tricia Koning |
Grade: | Grade 1 |
Subject: | Math |
Topic: | Lesson 3: Sorting and Classifying 2D shapes by their various attributes Creating 2D shapes |
Content: | |
Goals: | 1. Model sorting & classifying shapes in different ways according to their attributes ex. # of corners, # of sides, sizes, colours 2.Small group work to observe individual students comprehension as they sort and classify 2D shapes according to their attributes 3.Students will create their own shapes on geo-board and then play a teacher directed 'What Shape an I game?' |
Objectives: | |
Materials: | cut out shapes w tape on back for sorting demonstration chart paper and markers cut out shapes for sorting activity, a variety of sizes and colours worksheet pencils 1 geoboard/student |
Introduction: | Students at carpet tell them we are going to sort and classify shapes according to their various attributes |
Development: | ask students if I want to classify shapes by their number of corners which shapes would belong where (0,3,4 written on whiteboard), continue with # of sides, sides the same length, size of shape etc hold up a shape and call on individual students to answer model to students proper use of elastics and how to create shapes on a geoboard or play 'shape battleship' with a friend tell them that when they are done their work they can come play with the geoboards on the carpet and that we are going to play a fun game with the geoboards at the end of the lesson |
Practice: | tell students that they are going to take turns working with me in small groups doing a sorting activity while others complete the worksheet |
Accommodations: | modelling group activity small group independent work hands on manipulatives reading/writing/visual/doing learners |
Checking For Understanding: | small group work allows for teacher observation of individual comprehension worksheet for comprehension shape representations on geo-boards |
