Content: | Content: Language Arts- Listening, Story time, Sequencing, Inductive/Deductive Reasoning |
Goals: | Goals: Students will be active listeners during storytime Students will use deductive reasoning skills Students will draw conclusions Students will count number of places we searched for gingerbread man Students will retell the story through teacher/student made booklet |
Objectives: | |
Materials: | |
Introduction: | Begin by playing songs of "Run run run as fast as you can, you can't catch me, I'm the gingerbread man!" Talk about different versions of the gingerbread man/boy/baby story. |
Development: | Read Jan Brett's Gingerbread Baby story and then complete KWL chart about what we know about different versions of the gingerbread boy/man/baby |
Practice: | Teacher will model how to create a unique gingerbread baby by tracing, cutting and decorating a gingerbread baby. When the students go to P.E., they will return to the room to find their gingerbread babies missing! |
Accommodations: | Accommodations: Those who cannot read their note or who have difficulty deducting a viable guess will have the teacher and other students to help. |
Checking For Understanding: | When we are reading notes, the teacher will throw in some suggestions as to where to look that do not follow any sort of indeductive reasoning, to see if the students are understanding the way they must be thinking and how they must use the clues in order to make a "good" guess. |
Closure: | Once all the gingerbread babies are found, they are all brought back to the room where we will decorate and eat gingerbread cookies! |
Evaluation: | Informal assessment is made as the teacher listens to the guesses each child creates to check for understanding. The teacher will then work with the students, one at a time to allow students to dictate clues to the teacher when given a hiding place in the school.(deductive reasoning) |
Teacher Reflections: | This was a very succeful lesson. The students loved that each one of them had their own clue to read and solve. |
