State Standard: Math

Learning Objectives: Students learn to recognize the basic shapes in the real
world.

Target Audience

Knowing the Learner

Based on your survey data from earlier in the course, describe the target
audience for this lesson; what types of learning styles will you need to be
mindful of?
It is important to know the students backgrounds to help understand how they
learn, every student is different and has a different way of understanding a
lesson. It is most important we learn not just to see our students but to get to
know our students (Addressing Students Needs 1997).
There are two main types of learners in my classroom, they are visual and
bodily. The current assignment both helps get students on their feet and
visually lets them interact with the shapes inside the classroom.
I need to be aware of the logical students in my classroom and allow them to
be open to what would have circles, squares, diamonds etc.
Pedagogies (Remember to consider relevance and career/workforce
readiness skills around what is being taught):

Pedagogies
(How are technology, content, and pedagogical knowledge working
together in this lesson?)
In this lesson, students are using iPads to take pictures of shapes they see
around the room and then using those shapes to create graphs on what
shapes they saw most in the room. Technology, content and pedagogical
knowledge are working together to bring together the use of everyday objects
and save them with a photo with the iPad, allowing students to learn how to
work a camera and still upholding to helping students learn to what a square,
circle, triangle, diamond, star and heart look like.

Technology Being Used by Students

To start the lesson, students will do a quick lesson on the smartboard to review
what shapes there are.
Students will then use iPads to take pictures of the shapes around the room.

Technology Being Used by Teacher

Teachers will incorporate the smart board technology to help review shapes
and will then use a printer to print off the shapes the students found
throughout the room.

Lesson Strategy and Required Materials

The lesson strategy is to combine the learning of shapes with real world
objects. Showing students that shapes make up everything we see and are not
just limited to when being taught them.
Required Materials are iPads to take the pictures, printer to print the pictures,
paper to make a graph out of which shapes were seen the most.

Feedback Strategy (Frequent checks for understanding):

Asking students what shapes they see, if they can find this shape or that
shape.

Assessments (How do you know students met the learning objectives and
targets?)

When the students are making their graphs at the end, making sure they
mark the correct shapes helps to check if they met the learning objective as
well as making sure they match the shapes correctly to understand what each
shape is.

Modifications/Enrichments (implanted in this lesson or ideas for future

lesson delivery)

TPACK LESSON PLAN TEMPLATE

To include more technology next time, possibly having them make a class
graph on the smart board.
