Year Level: 2 Time: 11am-12pm Date: 30th May 2018 Students’ Prior Knowledge:
Learning Area: Mathematics – Measurement and Geometry Students have been introduced to the order
of months and seasons in each year

questions to get students to think about the task as not only something to learn at school but a concept they will use
throughout their whole lives. In our calendar filling activity, many of the students asked to take their calendar they
made home to put on their wall, which to me felt like an accomplishment because it shows that they were interested in
continuing to learn more about the topic. I am still trying to decide the most effective “attention grabbing” technique
and after this lesson I am thinking Stop Look and Listen gets their attention best.
Bring students onto the front mat and ask a series of quick questions
to revise what we did in our last lesson on months and seasons.
1. What is the first month of the year?
2. What is the order of the seasons? (Remind them of SAWS)
3. Which three months are in Summer?
4. Which three months are in Autumn?
5. Which three months are in Winter?
6. Which three months are in Spring?
Tell students that a calendar is a chart with twelve pages, with one
page being dedicated to each month of the year. On a calendar we
can see days, weeks and months of a particular year and we can fill it
in with different events, celebrations or seasons.
Show students the video that explains calendars, days, months and YouTube Video
11:10am related topics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8ZQTsbJ55w
(Pause at 3:25)
Present the “Class Calendar” to students and tell them that from Class Calendar
today, a new job will be added to the list of daily jobs. The job will be
to change the day, date and weather for each day of the week.
Look at the calendar with students and explain the purpose of each
box: months, days, season, weather and why it is important for us to
have a daily calendar in our classroom.
11:15am
Ask individual students to stick the correct day, date, month, weather

If students finish early give them jumbled month cards, season cards
and cards signalling number of days in a month. Have them order the
months, then add the season then match the month with the number
of days in that month (refer to the poem poster if need be)
Month, seasons and
number of days cards
Call students back to the front mat to teach them the poem about
11:40am months in a year. Show them the poster and read along together.
Assessment: (Were the lesson objectives met? How will these be judged?)
