1 Interdisciplinary Lesson Plans Review Brandi O’Laughlin EDUC 324: Teaching Elementary and Middle School Science Professor Cassandra Leo February 19, 2024
2 Interdisciplinary Lesson Plans Review Lesson One – Mathematics Integration Title of Lesson: [Investigate and Classify Rocks] Strand: [Scientific and Engineering Practices] Topic: [Geoscience] Grade Level: [2 nd Grade ] Primary Virginia Science Standard of Learning: [ Scientific and Engineering Practices 2.1 The student will demonstrate an understanding of scientific and engineering practices by b) planning and carrying out investigations.] Math Integration Virginia Mathematics Standard of Learning : [2.1 The student will a) read, write, and identify the place and value of each digit in a three-digit numeral, with and without models.] Strand: [Number and Number Sense] Proposed Integration: [ This math standard will be integrated into the science lesson through a math activity called “Rock and Roll”. The students will use the rocks from the science lesson to work on place values. Each child will be given three dice and a tray with three sections labeled hundreds, tens and ones. The students will roll all three dice at once and then count the numbers on the dice to determine what number goes to each place value. The students will then count the rocks and place them in the try in the correct place value. Students will have prior knowledge with the vocabulary, place value, hundreds place, tens place, one’s place, dice and rocks.] Technology Integration: [Technology would be incorporated into this lesson plan by using an app called Plickers. Plickers allows teachers to ask questions and students will hold up their
3 plicker codes with their answer choice. Each code as four ways to be held with an A, B,C and D option. The teacher than uses a camera on a smart phone or device to scan the codes. The class responses are recorded and displays the percentage of the class answers and then reveals the correct answer. The class will be asked math questions regarding place value using the rocks and dice and then asked to answer using their codes. Student/Teacher Actions (what students and teachers should be doing to facilitate learning): [Fully list out the actions you would take in this lesson to incorporate Math into this Science lesson. Add more numbers if needed. Make sure you add enough detail for someone to replicate your actions by following your step-by-step directions. Please see this section on each supplied lesson plan for the expected detail for this section.] 1. [Teachers should make sure all students have a background knowledge of place value and understand the directions and steps of the activity prior to beginning activity.] 2. [Teachers will review step by step math problems using the dice and rocks to model the activity and allow time for questions.] 3. [Teachers should be walking around the room answering questions and asking questions to prompt critical thinking and understanding of the math concepts.] 4. [Students should be working independently to show understanding of the math concepts and be engaged in the activity.] Assessment: [Students will be assessed for their understanding of the math concept through the technology activity results. The students answers will be recorded and identified individually so the teacher can check for understanding.]
4 Diverse Learners: [Use this section to explain how you would adapt your instruction and/or this experiment to address the needs of diverse learners. At a minimum, you must differentiate for identified groupings below.] Giftedness: [Students who need more of a challenge will be given an extension to the rock and roll activity. In addition to rolling the dice and finding the place value the students will write down the set of three numbers, roll again and write down the second set of three numbers and add together. ] English Language Learners (ELL): [ELL learners will be invited into a small group where we will review the activity and the teacher will model it again step by step. The group will take turns rolling an individual place value and counting for one place value instead of three.] Developmental Delay: [Developmental Delayed students will have the options to roll one dice and count out the number of rocks per the number on the dice and record it on a piece of paper.] Sensory Disability: [Students with sensory disabilities will be able to choose a different manipulative instead of rocks to count with.] Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: [Students with ADHD will have the option to perform all tasks standing up and will take breaks as needed to focus.] Math Anxiety: [Students will math anxiety will be encouraged many time by the teacher and be offered support when needed. Students will also be able to join small group or work with a partner if needed.]
5 Lesson Two – History/Social Science Integration Title of Lesson: [All About Landforms] Strand: [Earth and space systems] Topic: [Earths surfaces and Geography] Grade Level: [Kindergarten] Primary Virginia Science Standard of Learning: [ K.10 The student will investigate and understand that change occurs over time. Key ideas include. a) natural and human-made things change over time] History/Social Science Integration Virginia History & Social Science Standard of Learning : [ K.5 The student will use simple maps and globes to c) locate land and water features. ] Strand: [Geography] Proposed Integration: [ History and Social Science will be integrated into the landform science lesson by identifying what landforms and bodies of water that are present in the local community and state where the students live. The teacher will lead a discussion about the community and name a few local landforms and or bodies of water engaging the students in conversation. The students will also name landforms they have traveled to in their communities or places they have traveled to. The teacher will go over types of landforms and bodies of water in the area by showing the class images and defining what they mean and where they are. Students be given cut and paste worksheets to place the landform photo with the correct landform label. Technology Integration: [Technology will be integrated into this lesson plan by using the smart projection screen to display landform images and video to the whole class. The teacher will also display images of the landforms that can be edited and labeled with the smart pen. The teacher
