Frank Lloyd Wright's An Kindergarten Math Standard Of Identifying And Identifying Shapes

6 sheets of different colored construction paper (1 piece of red, orange, yellow, green, purple, and black)

The lesson begin with revise on the previous lesson, to reinforce their learning on lines and patterns. Then display the beach illustration on the book’s front cover to the children, and assist the class to decompose the elements and principals of the illustration by asking questions,

It also acknowledges the content description as children use origami skills to fold their two-dimensional nets into three dimensional objects, such as prisms and pyramids. Thinking about 3D shapes through nets can be very beneficial to understanding the representation of shapes in multiple forms (Tartre, 1990). They help students to conceptualise surface area, the logistics of volume and side lengths through special visualisation. Before the construction of the 3D shapes, while children are in the decorating stage, I will prompt thinking by asking how many sides their shape will have when it’s completed or what side of the net do they think will be the base. One key problem with the worksheet selected, is that it names the 3D shape that will be created from the net. I will remove this because I think it is essential for students to be able to recognise and correctly identify the shape for themselves as this is something they are asked to do in most standardised maths tests. This idea is supported by the NSW Department of Education as they recognise students must have the ability to “perceive and hold an appropriate mental image of an object”. In order to further support the development of modelling 3D shapes, I will implement another creative activity where students can

Materials: Book, No Two Alike by Keith baker, pencils and papers, big T-chart poster paper, individual T-chart, closure worksheet, glue sticks, sticky notes.

Use a rainbow of colors. Make it a buddy game to practice, until mastered, and then students will take them home on the weekends. Weekly crafts of lower and upper case letter to make an ABC book.

My child study was inspired by the richly textured collages of Romare Bearden. I created an appropriate lesson plan for the developmental level of a third grade student. The student that I worked with was Leanna, she goes to PS.29. She is eight years old, and she loves to to dance and be creative. As a third grade student, Leanna does not have art class. Arts and crafts are done sporadically throughout the school year and sometimes during lunch. As a lover of the arts, Leanna really doesn’t like that her school doesn’t offer her art classes. When asked, she said her favorite form of art is origami. She loves to create origami hearts for valentine’s day. It is really unfortunate for creative students, like Leanna to be deprived from applying their creativity in art classes.

The materials I used in my project were colored pencils and black sharpies. I used a black sharpie to outline my drawing to make it stick out and have structure. Then I used high quality colored pencils so that my drawings in a rich color saturation. When using the colored pencils I shaded places to make the drawing have depth or appear three-dimensional.

My most vivid and fond childhood memory is creating a lengthy paper chain with my younger brother and two friends. Cutting strips of paper and interlocking two strips to form circles, our paper chain grew steadily. We used colored construction paper, copy paper-- anything we had available to accomplish our task. Our paper chain was taped, stapled, glued, and at one point even paper clipped. The amount of pride this simple paper chain elicited in four grade-school children was astounding. None of our innumerable projects captured us the way our paper chain did.

Cut out the boxes. Sort them into an appropriate lay-out on a page of your workbook, then glue them down. Add connecting arrows and colour in.

Materials: Family’s iPad, coloring pages, crayons/makers, books, snacks, textured objects, playdoh or sand, music, rain stick

scraps of paper you include when it is an applique design. Put the example in

Materials: Old magazines, plastic bags, glue, poster board, Dewey class paper strips (in a hat or bowl),

To make the booklets: It is best to use unlined paper, as the children will be using pictures and other symbols to represent the ideas they are “writing” about. A piece of colored 8½x11 construction paper can

During the actual lesson I felt that the students were hooked with learning shapes when we gave them pipe cleaners to build with. However, those pipe cleaners were also a tool that caused a distraction which made the students lose focus of what we were trying to teach. Wiggins and McTighe (2006) suggest that lessons should not only be entertaining but essential toward learning. I felt that the pipe cleaners

Don 't start out with a lot of complicated shapes and designs. A few sheets of paper, a ruler and a pencil will get you going. Make a plan on separate sheets of paper for each side, front and back. You 'll of course want to be sure to label what each sheet is.
