Shape recognition and construction, using a model to make a plan, asking and answering questions, patterns, writing and reading numerals, representing, analyzing and discussing data using charts and graphs

Students will use their knowledge of shapes to creat their own house.

Students will create their own house using the knowledge of shapes and how to put 2 shapes together to make a new shape.

Students need to know how to identify the basic shapes both 2d and 3d.

Shapes are all around us and we must know how to use them in a variety of different ways.

I will use starfall.com to help students see how different shapes can make different pictures.

The lesson length and engagement period for each day.  It will need to be spaced out over a much larger time span.

I wil show students different models and shapes that can be used to form different arrangements, then they will be given the freedom to explore and create on their own.

All students needs will be met as they will have the freedom to plan how many shapes that will use and what their house will look like. Some students may use the same shape, while others may use all different shapes.

Whole group instruction for introduction, models, small group instruction within the group, whole class projects

Students will have to discuss the shapes and how they are going to create a house.  Some students will need specific guidance on what this looks like, others will give up and need extra support for how to start or what to do next

Explicit teacher talk, modeling, providing support based on specific student struggles, peer interaction

Students will need to work as a class to talk, create, and explore the shape houses.  Students will then make their own shape house.

VPK curriculum guides, Get Set for School curriculum lessons

Tangram shapes, attributes of 2d and 3d shapes

Integration of technology into identifying shapes

Resources will be starfall.com; and PBL websites that focus on shape creation

By having students present a group project and work as a team, they will have to communicate and share their ideas for learning.

I have the tangrams and 2d shapes that will help the students make the model. Students will be doing this as a whole group discussion led by the teacher with different ideas to consider. Students will then make their own shape house. This is where those that are ready to go will be able to take the idea and "run" while those that need extra support or encouragement will be able to be given more support and allow them more time to discuss what they want to do with the teacher.

Students are reviewing 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional shapes. How can students use these shapes to create their own house. Students will work as a class to come up with materials and ideas to build their house.

Each student will be able to color and trace their own house and we will display these houses in the room. Students will also be able to describe their house to the class as a final presentation.
