JKSK 3d Shape Lesson

This lesson plan is for a JK/SK math class on 3-D shapes. Students will explore the characteristics of 3-D shapes like sides and corners. They will pretend to be inside familiar shapes. The teacher will assess students through observation and checklists. Students will bring prior knowledge of 3-D shapes to the lesson. The teacher will differentiate instruction through rotating between activity centers. Students will engage by reviewing 3-D shapes in a song. They will then learn about different shapes from the teacher and practice building shapes themselves at centers. To conclude, students will present what they learned and built.

Lesson Plan Information


Subject/Course: Math
Grade Level: JK/SK
Topic: 3-d shapes

Name: Maya
Date: May 5/2014
Time:
Length of Period: 50 minutes

2. Expectation(s)
Expectation(s) (Directly from The Ontario Curriculum):
G3.4- Build three-dimensional structures using a variety of materials and begin to recognize the threedimensional figures their structure contains
Learning Skills (Where applicable):
Building, Describing and Comparing
3. Content
What do I want the learners to know and/or be able to do?
Learners will be able to explore characteristics of 3-D shapes (sides, corners, flat parts, etc..) Learners will also
be able to visualize the 3-D objects and pretending they are inside an object.
Today learners will:
Pretend to be inside a familiar 3-D shape.
4. Assessment (collect data) / Evaluation (interpret data)
(Recording Devices (where applicable): anecdotal record, checklist, rating scale, rubric)
Based on the application, how will I know students have learned what I intended?
Observation, Anecdotal notes
Checklist

5. Learning Context
A. The Learners
(i) What prior experiences, knowledge and skills do the learners bring with them to this learning
experience?
Students will bring with them prior knowledge of 3-D shapes as well as their names (cone, cube, cylinder,
sphere)
(ii) How will I differentiate the instruction (content, process and/or product) to ensure the inclusion of
all learners? (Must include where applicable accommodations and/or modifications for learners
identified as exceptional.)
To ensure inclusion, all students will have the opportunity to explore different stations. I will rotate at centers to
help guide students with vocabulary, identifying, building and labeling.
B. Learning Environment
Whole group circle then break into small groups for centers.
C. Resources/Materials
3D object for each shape

6. Teaching/Learning Strategies

INTRODUCTION
How will I engage the learners? (e.g., motivational strategy, hook, activation of learners prior
knowledge, activities, procedures, compelling problem)
To begin we will review 3-D shapes by listening to the 3-D song.
MIDDLE:
Teaching: How does the lesson develop?
How we teach new concepts, processes (e.g., gradual release of responsibility - modeled, shared, and
guided instruction).
I will have the shapes and ask students what each shape is named, and where we might see the shape. I will
ask students to tell me something about each shape.
Consolidation and/or Recapitulation Process: How will I bring all the important ideas from the learning
experiences together for/with the students? How will I check for understanding?
I will have a student volunteer to come and create a shape using the play dough. After the student has created
the shape or building/figure I will ask the other students what shape was made. I will then ask the student to tell
us how they made it, whether it was hard or easy to make.
Application: What will learners do to demonstrate their learning? (Moving from guided, scaffolded
practice, and gradual release of responsibility.)
Learners will have the opportunity to explore and build their own 3-D shapes using different materials (play
dough, sand, paper, etc) at different centers.
CONCLUSION: How will I conclude the lesson?
5 min warning
students will gather and a few students will have the opportunity to show the class what they have learned and
built.
