Lesson #2

Academic Foundations, Standards and Benchmarks

A. PRE-PLANNING

Oregon Academic Standards & Benchmarks: in this lesson for 2nd grader Social Sciences

Social Sciences: Geography CCG - Use maps and other geographic tools and technologies to acquire, process, and report information from a spatial perspective.

Content Standard: Locate places and understand and use geographic information or relationships by reading, interpreting, and

preparing maps and other geographic representations.

Working towards Benchmark 1 (Grade 3):SS.03.GE.02 Understand the purpose of maps, globes, and other

geographic tools.

Academic Foundations, Standards and Benchmarks continued

English Language Arts: Listen to and read informational and narrative text CCG – Listen to, read, and understand a wide variety of informational and narrative text across the subject areas at school and on own, applying

comprehensionstrategies as needed.

2nd Grade Standard:EL.02.RE.10 Listen to, read, and understand a wide variety of grade-level informational and narrative (story) text including children’s magazines

and newspapers, dictionaries, other reference materials, online information, classic and contemporary literature, and poetry.

English Language Arts: Listening CCG – Listen critically and respond appropriately

across the subject areas.

2nd Grade Standard:EL.02.SL.06 Determine the purposes of listening (e.g., to obtain

information, to solve problems, for enjoyment).

Goals for Specific LessonWhat is the BIG PICTURE of the lesson?

2. Goals:

•The 2nd grade students at Firwood Elementary School will know the important features on a map.

•The 2nd grade students at Firwood Elementary School will understand how Google Maps can be used to view parts of their community.

•The 2nd grade students at Firwood Elementary School will understand how to use a graphic organizer to gather important information while listening.

Behavioral Objectives

COMPONENTS:

The Student will….The Behavior verb (do what?)The Condition (under what circumstances?)The Criteria (to what degree?)The Domain and Level (i.e. C-3)The Performance Indicator (P.I.)

Consider starting with the behavior, then adding the condition and criteria.

Behavioral Objectives: HOW goals will be met

3. Behavioral Objectives:

•Working individually, the students will write down 4 fun facts or questions, on their graphic organizer, on their chosen topic. (C1) PI: Graphic Organizer

•Working in small groups, the students will use the map and map key on the, Going through the City handout, to correctly record the 6 questions provided on the sheet. (C1) PI: Handout

Look for the:BEHAVIORCONDITIONCRITERIA

Differentiation: Look at the Special Needs Piece in the LEARNING CONTEXT

4. Differentiation Strategies:

English Language Learners (ELL) – These students will receive a graphic organizer with short facts on them already. The students will read the facts out loud to a partner at the end of the class, during sharing time. They will receive a coloring sheet that teaches compass directions by colors, instead of Going through the City handout.

Individualized Education Plans (IEPs) – These students will only be required to have at least 2 fun facts or questions on their graphic organizer. They will only be required to have at least 3 correct answers but all 6 answers attempted on the Going through the City handout.

Talented and Gifted (TAG) – These students will be required to have at least 4 fun facts or questions on their graphic organizer. The students will receive a supplemental handout, Town to Town along with the Going through the City handout.

Lesson Implementation

B. IMPLEMENTATION

1. Motivator: Teach students how to sign “community” in American Sign Language. (Starts on right, make many house roofs). [2 mins]

2. Procedures: •Pass out and explain the graphic organizer. [5 mins]

•“I want you to pick a topic and write that in the “cone”. Anything that we talk about today is part of a topic. I want you to write down interesting facts, questions, or notes on the “scoops of ice cream” portion of the graphic organizer. Please make sure you write nicely so you and I both can read it.”

Model procedure:

•Pull up Google Earth on the computer and on the projector. [2 min]

•“For example, Google Earth may be a topic and you will write down anything that has to do with that topic.”

•“Let’s take a trip from Firwood Elementary School to Sandy.” [3 mins]

oType Firwood’s address (42900 SE Trubel Rd. Sandy, OR) into the “from” box.oType “Sandy, Oregon” into the “to” box.oClick the search key and allow the camera to travel from Firwood Elementary to Sandy.

•Click on “switch to Google maps” under the “file” tab. [5 mins]

oType in “Sandy, Oregon”oClick on “Street view” so students may see close up. Move mouse around to show students different views.

Procedures continued

•Type in the following addresses of significant places of the Sandy Community. Click on street view to zoom in. [7 mins]

oPolice Station & Sandy Library: 38970 Proctor Blvd. Sandy, ORoSandy Fire Department: 17460 Bruns Ave. Sandy, ORoSandy Cinema: 16600 Champion Way Sandy, ORoSandy Post Office: 38982 Pioneer Blvd. Sandy, ORoRemind students that these are not live photos, but they were previously taken photos. Things to be pointing out to students: the compass, directions, streets, buildings, trees, and cars in pictures.

•Ask table monitors to come up and get table copies of the handout, “Going through the City.” [3mins]

•Go over handout with students. Explain the features of a map and why they are important. [5 mins]

oKey features of map: The map key: Words or colors that are indicated on a map by a symbol. The compass: The directional indicator on a map.

 

Procedures and Closure

•Ask students to work on their handouts and finish their graphic organizers independently. [5 mins]

3. Closure: 

•Encourage students to share their graphic organizers with their table groups. [3 mins]

•Request everyone’s attention at the front of the room.

•If time allows: Pull out 3 random name Popsicle sticks. Encourage those students to share which topic they picked and read out loud one of their “scoops of ice cream.” [5 mins]

•Dismiss students by quiet tables, to turn in their graphic organizers and Going through the City handouts.

 

Lesson Reflection

C. REFLECTION:

Which parts of the lesson went well? •The students were VERY interested in the modern technology of Google Earth and Google Maps. Many students had never seen anything like it.•The students really enjoyed learning Community in ASL.•Most of the students did well on the 1st worksheet and a few did the supplemental worksheet and did quite well on it.•I worked at a table with a group of students who needed assistance with the worksheet. With some guidance, they were actually quite successful with grasping the concepts.

What did not go well during the lesson?  

•They were very loud and challenging to manage during the Google portion. I knew that it was because they were so excited so I allowed some. •They were not as interested in looking at the locations in their own community as I had anticipated. They were yelling out locations like, Hawaii, China, and Mexico.•The graphic organizers were a bit too advanced for most of the students in the class. I think it was challenging for them to do it at the same time. It would be a project they would be more successful with if a teacher did it along with them several times first. They need a lot of guidance in several situations.

Reflection continued

How would you improve the lesson for next time?

•Print the graphic organizer onto a projector and do at the same time. Prior guidance with graphic organizers would be useful. Create a graphic organizer that has many facts already on it.
