SIOP LESSON TITLE: Surface Area TEACHER: Joseph Perez

CONTENT STANDARD(S): G.11.C: apply the formulas for the total and lateral GRADE: 10
surface area of three-dimensional figures, including prisms, pyramids, cones,
cylinders, spheres, and composite figures, to solve problems using
appropriate units of measure

KEY VOCABULARY: Surface Area, sphere, prism, cylinder, pyramid, cone, VISUALS / RESOURCES / SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIALS: Three-Dimensional
composite figure papers figures, Realia(Soccer ball, can, PE cone, box, etc.)

HOTS: Applying prior learned formulas to new concept

CONNECTIONS TO PRIOR KNOWLEDGE / BUILDING BACKGROUND: Gift wrapping a box. The shape of the lable on a water bottle. Painting a room.

CONTENT OBJECTIVE(S): SWBAT find the surface
area given the base (B) and hieght of a figure
or the radius of a sphere
LANGUAGE OBJECTIVE(S): SWBAT use and write
vocabulary in a way that mirrors classroom
assessment 74.4.c.5.B
WRAP-UP: Discuss how surface area is used daily in different career fields.
MEANINGFUL ACTIVITIES: Scholars will be divided REVIEW / ASSESSMENT: EXIT ticket
into groups and given the realia of different
three-dimensional figures. Each group will
calculate the surface area of each figure using the
surface area formulas.
MEANINGFUL ACTIVITIES: Scholars will be assigned REVIEW / ASSESSMENT: The different groups would
a three dimensional figure and then be required to swap questions and attempt to solve the new set
write a question that could be used to assess of questions.
knowledge on the content. Scholars will then get in
groups and discuss how to make each other
questions better and ensure it is solvable.
