3rd Grade Special Education Lesson Plans - Monday, September 16, 2013 Procedures IEP/Testing/Consult Writing: O- SWBAT write a story about why rules are important. SWBAT correctly organize writing, provide a sense of closure and use descriptive elements. Work on rough draft Model, do, monitor each section of the tree flow map, giving examples of how to take their quick ideas and make them into sentences. Complete two of the idea sections of the tree/flow map. Warm up Review the steps we have taken so far in the writing process. TW explain, We have been brainstorming, using a circle map and then transferred over our ideas from our circle map to our tree/ flow map. Now we are writing our rough draft and making our body ideas into complete sentences to form a paragraph. Direct Instruction/Model/Guided Practice TW show students how to take two of their ideas and make them into complete sentences by doing a model, do, monitor strategy. TW explain that the students need to use the color that they circled their ideas with, to write their ideas. Independent practice SW make two ideas from their tree/flow map into complete sentences using the right colored pencil. Closure DOK question- SW work with a partner to compare the circle map to the tree/flow map. T/SW review what they learned today. Materials- Tree/flow map, lined paper, colored pencils. Math EnVision MATH Lesson Sequence: Standard- 1.3.1 Identify, use, and model place value positions of 1s, 10s, 100s, and 1,000s. Identify the value of a given digit in the 1s, 10s, 100s, and 1000s place. O: SWBAT to compare 3 digit and 4 digit numbers and make number sentences. Warm up-(10 minutes) SW take a math fact sheet when they come into the classroom. They will have one minute to complete all of the problems. They are currently on addition math facts. TW say, Suppose this student has 3 pencils and this student has 5 pencils, how can I compare the number of pencils in each group? Who has more?

8:55-9:55

Direct Instruction/Model- (20 minutes) TW say, You already know how to write a number in a place-value chart. Today, you will learn how to compare numbers by using a place value chart. TW define the vocabulary term compare and then show an example. TW pose a problem, Suppose I have 352 cupcakes in this group and 348 cupcakes in this group. Let use a place value chart to help us figure out which group has the greater amount of cupcakes. (TW draw a place value chart for the students to copy on the board) Lets start with the hundreds

place value, they are both threes, that means we should move on to the tens place value. Are they the same? No, one is a 5 and the other is a 4. 5 is greater than 4 so that means 352 is greater than 348. Lets write a number sentence.(TW write 352 >348) TW review the symbols <, >, and =. TW say, Now lets use our base ten blocks to compare the numbers 136 and 139. (TW use the base ten blocks to represent both numbers using the Elmo) Which number is bigger? (139)How can you tell? (They both have 1 flat, 3 rods, but this one has more units) Lets write a number sentence. (139<136; 136<139) Guided Practice- (10 minutes) SW complete GP problems on page 13 of their math textbook with the class. (1-7) SW make number sentences using index cards with a partner. Independent Practice-(10 minutes) SW complete IP on page 13-14 of their math textbook by themselves.
