Studies textbook “Neighborhoods”. (Pg. 212-217)

B. Target Population:

Grade Level: 2nd grade

Skill Level: students at all learning levels

Grouping: whole group reading & discussions, independent for activity and assessment

Vocabulary & Study Guide (Unit Resources pg. 65)- 24 copies

Houghton Mifflin 2nd grade social studies book: Neighborhoods (p. 212-217) Paper and pencils

D. Objectives:

o NV State Social Studies Standards

H1.2.4 Recognize similarities and differences of earlier generations in

areas such as work, dress, manners, stories, games, and festivals.

o Student-Friendly Standards

H1.2.4 I can recognize similarities and differences of people that used tolive in our community before us.

E. Procedure:

1. Refer to notes on TE 212- “Get Set to Read.”

Explain the Study Guide students will complete as we read.

Call students attention to the map on pg. 213

Identify & discuss the four first American groups.

Introduce vocabulary (history)

2. As a class, read pg. 212-215, stopping to ask questions as indicated in the margins of TE

(pg. 213, 214, 215)

3. Students should take notes and record information on their Study Guide while we read;

they can continue working on their Study Guide when we finish reading.

4. DDD Ask questions listed in the margins of the TE as an ongoing check for

understanding.

(TE 213) What is a way to learn about the past?

(TE 213) Who was already living in America more than 500 years ago?

(TE 213) What does the map on page 213 show?






(After reading TE 214 & 215) What did the Delaware use to make clothes? (picture

TE 214)

What can you tell about how the Delaware spent their day? (after reading TE 215)

(Picture TE 214) What is a Navajo home called?

What kinds of homes did the Osage have?

Where did the Shasta live? (TE 215)

5. Discuss with your group- How are the Navajo sandals and the Osage bowl similar? How

are they different? (TE 216)

6. CLOSURE: Discuss the two statements in the “Review and Assess” section TE 216

F. Assessment:

What will you use to measure student understanding?

Complete Reading Skill: Classify independently. This will allow me to measure studentsunderstanding between the different first four different groups of Americans.

Explain how you will know students understand the concepts from the lesson.

Students should have completed the worksheet with the classification of the different

types of groups. Filling out the worksheet with the different groups of Americans will

show if students understand the similarities and differences between the four groups.

G. Reflection:

1. Which part of the lesson do you think will be the easiest for you to teach?

I think the easiest part to teach will be identifying the similarities between the four

groups.

2. Which part will be most challenging for you to teach?

I think the most challenging part to teach will be building on background

knowledge, as some students may not recall learning about the past/history before

or they may have a different concept about it.

3. How will you follow up or extend this lesson?

As an extension to the lesson, I would use “Extend Lesson 1 (pg. 218-219)- “TheYoung Woman and the Thunder Beings.”

4. What will you do for students who don’t grasp the concepts?

For the students that who don’t grasp the concepts, I would use the Reteach Mini

lesson on pg. 217. It’s a Venn diagram that focuses on two groups that can be

modified to different groups.

5. Which part of the lesson, if any, do you think might need to change?






I think this lesson can be modified by having books, magazines about the four

different groups, so students can explore the images and become more familiar

with them. This can also lead to an extension of a lesson plan.

6. When you were writing this lesson plan, what was the most difficult part?

The most difficult part of this lesson plan was planning what worksheets to use first.

The order that I chose, I think it was the best.
