Transcription

1 Unit: 01 Lesson: 03 Suggested Duration: 2 days Kindergarten Unit 01 Exemplar Lesson 03: What We Do Each Day At School This lesson is one approach to teaching the State Standards associated with this unit. Districts are encouraged to customize this lesson by supplementing with district-approved resources, materials, and activities to best meet the needs of learners. The duration for this lesson is only a recommendation, and districts may modify the time frame to meet students needs. To better understand how your district may be implementing CSCOPE lessons, please contact your child s teacher. (For your convenience, please find linked the TEA Commissioner s List of State Board of Education Approved Instructional Resources and Midcycle State Adopted Instructional Materials.) Lesson Synopsis In this lesson, students use a familiar rhyme to learn vocabulary relating to chronology. They examine the school day and use chronology vocabulary to describe the events of a day. TEKS The Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) listed below are the standards adopted by the State Board of Education, which are required by Texas law. Any standard that has a strike-through (e.g. sample phrase) indicates that portion of the standard is taught in a previous or subsequent unit. The TEKS are available on the Texas Education Agency website at K.3 History. The student understands the concept of chronology. The student is expected to: K.3A K.3B Place events in chronological order. Use vocabulary related to time and chronology, including before, after, next, first, last, yesterday, today, and tomorrow. K.4 Geography. The student understands the concept of location. The student is expected to: K.4A Use terms, including over, under, near, far, left, and right, to describe relative location. Skills TEKS K.15 Social studies skills. The student communicates in oral and visual forms. The student is expected to: K.15B Create and interpret visuals, including pictures and maps. GETTING READY FOR INSTRUCTION Performance Indicators Kindergarten Unit 01 PI 03 Create a pictorial timeline of the school day. Explain the timeline using vocabulary related to time and chronology, including before, after, next, first, and last. Standard(s): K.3A, K.3B, K.15B ELPS ELPS.c.1C, ELPS.c.2C, ELPS.c.3B Key Understandings Events occur in order, and their relationship to each other can be described in terms of time. What is the time relationship of events in a story? What is the time relationship of events in the day? Can I place events in chronological order? Can I use relative chronology terms (before, after, next, first and last) when describing the time relationship between events? Vocabulary of Instruction patterns chronology order timeline before after last next first Materials colored pencils or markers photographs of the first few days of school (similar to the Handout: Sample Timeline Pictures) Last Updated 05/15/13 Print Date 06/17/2013 Printed By Karen Johnson, MIDLAND ISD page 1 of 12

2 Unit: 01 Lesson: 03 Suggested Duration: 2 days pictures of activities of the school day (1 set per student) pocket chart sandwich bag for take-home card set strip of paper for timeline (5 x 17) Attachments All attachments associated with this lesson are referenced in the body of the lesson. Due to considerations for grading or student assessment, attachments that are connected with Performance Indicators or serve as answer keys are available in the district site and are not accessible on the public website. Teacher Resource: Hey Diddle Diddle Illustration Handout: Hey Diddle Diddle Sequencing Cards (1 teacher set and 1 set per student) Teacher Resource: Time Vocabulary Flash Cards (1 set for teacher) Teacher Resource: Sample Timeline Pictures (can be used on timeline) Resources Possible optional resource for nursery rhyme: Hey Diddle Diddle: Advance Preparation 1. Become familiar with content and procedures for the lesson, including the idea that learning about rules is a precursor to understanding bigger ideas such as government and how societies operate. 2. Refer to the Instructional Focus Document for specific content to include in the lesson. 3. Select appropriate sections of the textbook and other classroom materials that support the learning for this lesson. 4. Preview available resources and websites according to district guidelines. 5. Prepare materials and handouts as needed. Prepare pictures of the school day to use on the timeline. Take photographs of the students performing classroom tasks to use instead of the Sample Timeline Pictures. Photos could include: students getting off of school bus, eating breakfast, hanging up backpack, participating in morning group time, art, music, P.E., recess instructional time, etc. One photograph from each daily activity should be included. Digital pictures should be printed and cut apart so they can be put in order. See sample clip art pictures are included as Teacher Resource: Sample Timeline Pictures. Prepare sequencing cards for the nursery rhyme for teacher use. (If using Hey Diddle, Diddle, prepare the Handout: Hey Diddle Diddle Sequencing Cards). Prepare sequencing card sets for use by students. (If using Hey, Diddle, Diddle, prepare the Handout: Hey Diddle Diddle Sequencing Card sets for use by students.) Cut apart the cards and place a set in each sandwich bag; label each bag with a child s name and include a note to parents. Prepare a note to parents to send home, such as: Dear Parents, Today we practiced placing pictures of events in order. We used these words to describe the order of the pictures: first, last, next, before, after, and last. Please let your child put these pictures in order, and listen as he/she tells the story! This is a great way to practice the skills we are learning at school. Prepare a blank timeline using a strip of white paper upon which to glue pictures. Paper should be approximately half the size of an 11 x 17 sheet of construction paper, cut lengthwise (5 ½ X 17). The size may vary according to the number of pictures they wish to draw. Background Information Chronology Chronology is the arrangement of events in order of time or occurrence. Relative chronology differs from absolute chronology in that relative chronology explains the relationship between events. The terms in TEKS K.3B (first, next, before, after, etc.) are terms that explain relative chronology. GETTING READY FOR INSTRUCTION Teachers are encouraged to supplement and substitute resources, materials, and activities to meet the needs of learners. These lessons are one approach to teaching the TEKS/Specificity as well as addressing the Performance Indicators associated with each unit. District personnel may create original lessons using the Content Creator in the Tools Tab. All originally authored lessons can be saved in the My CSCOPE Tab within the My Content area.

3 Unit: 01 Lesson: 03 Suggested Duration: 2 days 1. Show students an illustration that goes with a nursery rhyme. (An online search can provide many options, or use the Teacher Resource: Hey Diddle Diddle Illustration.) 2. Read the rhyme aloud and ask students if they have heard the rhyme before today. 3. Read the rhyme again. Encourage students to recite the rhyme with you if they know it. Ask: What do you think is happening in this nursery rhyme? Attachments: Teacher Resource: Hey Diddle Diddle Illustration To catch students attention with rhyme and an illustration using a familiar nonsense rhyme with a sequence of events. TEKS: K.3A, K.3B; K.15B Instructional Note Any familiar nursery rhyme can be used. The rhyme Hey Diddle Diddle is used as a model in this lesson. 4. Allow students time to respond. EXPLORE Putting events in order 1. Show the four sequence cards (Handout: Hey Diddle Diddle Sequencing Cards), each representing a part of the rhyme or story. 2. Prompt students to discuss the rhyme. If using Hey, Diddle, Diddle, questions could include: What is happening in this picture? (The cat is playing the fiddle.) What is happening in this picture? (The dish is running with the spoon.) What about this picture? (The dog is laughing.) And what is happening in this picture? (The cow is jumping over the moon.) 3. Model vocabulary related to time and chronology (TEKS K.3B: before, after, next, first, last, yesterday, today, and tomorrow) by asking questions such as: Which picture goes first? (Place card in the pocket chart.) Which picture goes after this one? Which picture do you think goes next? (Place the next card in the pocket chart.) And which picture is last? (Place card in pocket chart.) 4. Explain that the process you just completed was ordering the events in the pictures. Together we put the pictures in order. Suggested Day 1 (cont d) 10 minutes Materials: pocket chart Attachments: Handout: Hey Diddle Diddle Sequencing Cards (teacher set) Teacher Resource: Time Vocabulary Flash Cards (teacher set) The purpose is to introduce sequencing and model use of vocabulary related to time and chronology by using a rhyme, such as Hey Diddle Diddle. TEKS: K.3A, K.3B; K.15B Instructional Note: Reinforce these vocabulary words by pointing them out when reading books aloud to students, especially big books where the students can clearly see the text. When modeling writing, it is important to use these words and include them on the classroom word wall. Encourage their use in journal writing when students begin to write independently. 5. Ask students to look at the pictures again. 6. Say: Look, this picture goes first. Hold up the flash card that says first. 7. Point to the next picture and say, this picture goes next. Hold up the flash card with the word next. 8. Complete this process with all four picture cards using the academic language as appropriate. 9. Then ask: What picture goes before the one where you see the cow jumping over the moon? Hold up the flash card that says before. 10. Then ask: What picture goes after the picture where you see the cow jumping over the moon? Show the word after. 11. Hold up the flash cards. 12. Explain that these words help us describe the order of events. 13. Show the cards one at a time and allow students to read the words with you. 14. Continue to display the flash cards on the pocket chart. Last Updated 05/15/13 Print Date 06/17/2013 Printed By Karen Johnson, MIDLAND ISD page 3 of 12

After modeling the language used to describe and sequence events in time, allow students to take turns telling part of the story using the appropriate vocabulary. 2. Ask: What happened in this part of the story? 3. Allow an individual child to respond. Other students then repeat the correct answer. 4. Continue with questioning until students have had an opportunity to answer, either individually or in unison with the group. 5. Distribute to each child a sandwich bag with copies of the sequencing cards. 6. Working with a partner, students put their pictures in order from left to right. Suggested Day 1 (cont d) 10 minutes Materials Attachments: sandwich bag for take-home card set Handout: Hey Diddle Diddle Sequencing Cards (1 set per student, cut apart, in sandwich bag) To demonstrate understanding by placing the pictures in order and describing the order of the events using appropriate vocabulary.

5 Unit: 01 Lesson: 03 Suggested Duration: 2 days responses. We can use these words to tell what happens in our own lives, not just a make-believe story. 2. Show the photographs taken on the first few days of school (or use the Teacher Resource: Sample Timeline Pictures). Make sure to have one photo of each time period in the school day. 3. As each picture is shown, place it on the pocket chart. (Pictures should not be presented in chronological order.) 4. Allow students to describe what is happening in each individual photograph. Let s put these pictures of our school day in order. Which picture goes first? Allow discussion and consensus. Which picture is next? Again, allow ample discussion and encourage participation from all students. Go through all of the pictures arranging them in chronological order with the students help. (similar to the Handout: Sample Timeline Pictures) pocket chart Attachments: Teacher Resource: Sample Timeline Pictures To apply learning to a new real-life situation. TEKS: K.3A, K.3B; K.4A; K.15B Instructional Note: Reinforce these vocabulary words by pointing them out when reading books aloud to students, especially big books where the students can clearly see the text. When modeling writing, it is important to use these words and include them on the classroom word wall. Encourage their use in journal writing when students begin to write independently. 5. Ask a student volunteer(s) to tell the story of the school day. Prompt using the chart and academic vocabulary terms as needed. (For example: First we get off the bus. Next, we walk to our classroom. After that we hang up our backpacks and go to circle time. Next we do the calendar. ) EXPLAIN Practice putting events in order Suggested Day 2 (cont d) 3 minutes 1. Student pairs tell the story of the school day to each other using academic vocabulary terms. 2.
