Title: Shape Graphing |
|
Subject: Mathematics |
|
Grade Level: K |
|
Overview: |
|
The lesson is about sorting shapes and placing them in the correct
column of a graph. |
|
Approximate Duration: 30 min. |
Content Standards:
-
Geometry
In problem-solving investigations, students demonstrate an
understanding of geometric concepts and applications involving one-,
two-, and three-dimensional geometry, and justify their findings.
|
Benchmarks:
-
G-1-E
determining the relationships among shapes; (1,2,3,4)
-
G-6-E
demonstrating the connection of geometry to the other strands
and to real-life situations. (1,2,3,4,5)
|
Educational Technology Standards:
-
Use a variety of developmentally appropriate resources and
productivity tools (e.g., logical thinking programs, writing and
graphic tools, digital cameras, graphing software) for
communication, presentation, and illustration of thoughts, ideas,
and stories.

Background Information:
Sts. have been introduced to and can recognize each shape. |
Lesson Procedures:
1. Using Power Point, identify shapes that are a circle, square,
rectangle, and triangle.
2. Students will sit in a circle around the floor graph.
3. Distribute objects to students to be graphed.
4. Students identify the shape they are holding and place in correct
column.
5. Identify which column has more, less, or same.
6. Review the shapes identified. |
Assessment Procedures:
Observation of identification of shapes and placement of them on the
graph
Students will circle correct shape called out on test. |
Accommodations/Modifications:
* Preferential seating
* Peer tutoring
