Lesson Plan 11rd Grade History-Social Science

• 1.2 Students compare and contrast the absolute
  and relative locations of places and people and
  describe the physical and/ or human
  characteristics of places.
• 1. Locate on maps and globes their local
  community, California, the United States, the
  seven continents, and the four oceans.
• Lesson Objective The lesson objective will be to
  teach students how to use world maps. How to
  locate places on a map, and how to get from one
  location to the next one by using a map. The
  students will become familiar with how to use the
  map. For example, they will become familiar with
  North, South, East, and West. The students will
  also learn how locate countries and cities on the
  map.
• Motivation This unit is on how to use maps, to
  introduce the lesson I will ask them question the
  What would you do if you were lost? I would
  also ask the student if any one like to share an
  experience when they have used a world map before
  or if they have seen some one else use a map. I
  would tell the students that by the end of the
  lesson they should be able to use maps, so that
  if they need to find a city or a country, or even
  a continent, then they will be confident to use a
  world map.

Lesson 1 cont

• Learning Experience First I will introduce them
  on how to use a world map. I will have a big
  world map in front of the class to show them how
  to find cities, and countries on a world map. I
  will them pass out maps to every one in class and
  give each student names of cities and countries
  to find on the map. I will then give the
  students the name of a country and they would
  need to tell me the name of a major city in that
  country or the other way around. I would give
  them the name of a major city, and they will need
  to find the country.
• Feedback/ Assessment At the end of the exercise
  I will have students get to in pairs and I will
  hand out a piece of paper with 10 locations to
  find on the map with the help of each other.
  There will also be a quiz to check that the
  students learned how to use the map. The quiz
  will ask questions on how to use the map. It
  will ask them how to locate cities and countries
  on the world map.

Lesson 2For Grade 2

• Standards Reading 2.5 Listening and Speaking
  1.3 and 1.8
• Lesson Objective To teach the students a way to
  decide what to include in and how to write a
  summary. I will do this by reading them a story
  about The Lonely Scarecrow.
• Motivation I would ask the students if any one
  knows whats a scarecrow? I would also show the
  students the front cover of the book, and ask
  them to tell me what they think the story is
  going to be about to gain their interest in the
  story that we are about to read.

6
Lesson Plan 2 cont

• Learning Experience. Tell them what a summary
  is. It is a shorter version of the story only
  telling the things that cause a change in the
  storys plot (important).
• Tell them how to decide what to put in a summary
  and what makes a good summary short, gives
  enough details that someone knows what happened,
  but doesnt tell the whole story.
• Tell them that we will be writing a summary
  about the Lonely Scarecrow.
• Read story aloud to class seated on the carpet.
• After second page stop and ask questions. Why
  is the scarecrow lonely? Why are the animals
  afraid of the scarecrow?
• After the scarecrow is a snowman and the animals
  are playing on him stop and ask, Why are the
  animals playing on the scarecrow?
• At the end ask, What happened when the snow
  melted? Did the animals still play with the
  scarecrow?
• Words to stop and explain jagged, marooned,
  combine, churning, ravaged, and nestle.
• Feedback/ Assessment
• Talk about the story a little, what they thought
  about it.
• Ask if any of them can remind me what a summary
  is. Have them tell me what makes a good summary.
  Write it on the board.
• Talk about the other aspects of a story plot,
  setting, main characters, problem, and solution.
  Talk about the feeling that the scarecrow had.
  Have any of the students ever felt lonely and
  isolated.
• Talk about scarecrows. What are they used for
  and why the animals were afraid of the scarecrow.
• Have the students reread the text on their own
  and look up or ask about any of the words that
  they dont understand. Then talk about their
  understanding of the text after knowing all the
  words was it better or the same.
• Students could draw their own picture of
  something that they are afraid of and then talk
  about the pictures and their fears in small
  groups.
• Have the students write their own summaries about
  the next book they read.
• Have students write their own story about a time
  when things were not as they seemed or when
  someone misjudged them.
• Then have students revise and type their stories
  on a computer to print out and post in the
  classroom.

Lesson Plan 32nd Grade History-Social Science

• Standards 2.5 Students understand the
  importance of individual action and character and
  explain how heroes from long ago and the recent
  past have made a difference in others' lives
  (e.g., from biographies of Abraham Lincoln, Louis
  Pasteur, Sitting Bull, George Washington Carver,
  Marie Curie, Albert Einstein, Golda Meir, Jackie
  Robinson, Sally Ride).
• Lesson Objective I will teach them the
  importance of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. I will
  do this by reading a short biography of Dr. King,
  and reading parts of his work such as quotes from
  his speech, I Have a Dream.
• Motivation I will start by asking the students
  if any one knows who Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
  is? Then I will read them a quote from his
  speech, and ask the students what it means to
  them. This will bring the students attention
  into the lesson.

Lesson Plan 3 cont

• Learning Experience I will read the students the
  biography of Dr. King pointing out important
  dates and events in his life. Some of this
  important events would be things such as where he
  was born, and when he was born. I will also
  stop, and ask the students questions about the
  information that I am presenting to them. I will
  also read to the students parts of the I Have a
  Dream speech to demonstrate how Dr. King make an
  impact in others lives by promoting social
  change and how his actions shapes the lives of
  people today.
• Feedback/ Assessment The students will need to
  find a partner and together they will come up
  with five things that they learn about Dr. King.
  The students, then will be able to share with the
  rest of the students what they came up with. For
  homework, I will have questions that the students
  will need to answer, but the questions will be
  simple and they will be pertaining to what they
  learned about Dr. King.

Description of Technology

• The class room has 6 computers and some of the
  computers have internet that can be use for
  research. The computers also have games that can
  be used to learn countries and continents to
  enhance their use of maps. Some of the students
  also have computers at home were they can use if
  for home work. I will also use the T.V. to show
  video clips of the speeches that Dr. King made.

10
Technology available to Organize and assess
student learning.

• The internet was a great source for me to find
  information about the requirements and for ideas
  to come up with the lesson plans. Now that I have
  the skills to use power point, I can use it to
  better serve my students by adjusting to the
  needs of different students. Some of them may
  like to see things on the screen, and other
  students may want to hear. By using T.V. and
  power point I can achieve both.
