Kindergarten

Cooperating Teacher: Mrs. Donna Ruggles

Mentor: Mrs. Mary Gill

Topic: Shapes Patterns.

I. Content and Standards: VA

o NCTM Standards: 1, 2, 3, 4, 9, 13.

II. Prerequisites: know how to create a pattern.

o Vocabulary:

o Pattern: repeating something over and over.

o Shape: a shape is the way something looks or form.

III. Essential Questions:

o What comes next? Commented [Office1]: This is where I got the questions I
used when I was teaching.
IV. Instructional Objective:

 Students will identify, copy, and extend two-and three-element shape patterns. Commented [Office2]: Domain 3b. Using questioning and
discussion techniques. This is my objective of what students
will be learning. This is the content I taught my students as
V. Instructional Procedures: well. Students identify that “square, circle, square” is a
pattern because it repeats itself. I made a pattern on the
carpet and asked students to copy the patterns. Most of the
a. Before: 5 minutes
advance made a three-element shape pattern.

1. Invite students to the carpet.

2. Explain lesson and what students are going to learn by saying: “Today, we will

learn about shape patterns.” I will ask students: “What is a shape patterns?” I

will call on one student to share answer. Commented [Office3]: Domain 3a. Communicating with
students. I clearly communicate and I explained what they
are going to learn today and what they are going to do
3. I will explain the different activities students will participate in to help improve when they are back at their table.

their understanding of shape patterns. Commented [Office4]: What students will do.
 4. I will read a book Patterns by Michele Koomen.
b. During: 30 minutes:
1. I will model a shape patterns using animal toys with different shapes.
2. I will ask students to make a shape pattern using a magnet blocks on the white
board and then read it to the class.
3. I will show Students how I did mine on the board and then students will copy
what I did.
4. Students will practice creating shape patterns with their math group during math
center
5. Activity #1: Patterns with shape worksheet. (Two tables).
6. Activity #2: Making shapes with magnet shapes on the white board. (Two tables).
Notes: Two table are going to participate in different activity to practice
creating shape patterns during math group and then they will flip flop
instead of rotating.
C) After: 5 minutes
1. Think and Discuss: When you see a pattern, how do you decide what
shape would come next? (I identify the order of shapes in the
pattern).
2. How could you describe the shape of a pumpkin? (Round, curvy…).
What about a flower? (pointed, curvy, and round).
3. Transition for snack.
VI. Materials and Equipment:
Commented [Office5]: Domain 3c: Engaging students in
learning. This is the part where I explain and then show
students what I made. I showed them a simple shape
pattern using squares and circle. I asked students what
comes next.
Commented [Office6]: Domain 3d: Using assessment in
instruction. Student copy what I made. Students also
participate in reading shape patterns and help finish a shape
pattern together. This went well because students helped
the students who got stuck creating a pattern up.
Commented [Office7]: Domain 3e: Demonstrating
flexibility and Responsiveness. Students are engaged in
different activity that involve creating shape patterns.
Student discussed their shape with a teacher and then
create a different shape patterns. During math centers, I
had the opportunity to assesses student’s ability and how
they create their shape patterns.
The special needs students had a little problem creating
shape pattern but the help of a teacher, they understood it.
I also gave them extra practice.
I asked students to make multiple shapes patterns and then
asked them to read it to me.
Commented [Office8]: Overall lesson was successful.
Afterward, they shared what they learned about shape
patterns. I review with them that a pattern repeats itself
and the pattern must be complete
  Pencil

 crayons

VII. Assessment/Evaluation:

 Complete activity and share.

 Show different ways of ordering shape patterns.

VIII. Differentiation:

 Different activities.

IX. Disabilities:

 Special education instructional assistant will be in the room to help with special

needs students.

 Modeled shapes pattern to students and have him or her copy it.

 Start activity with manipulative then worksheet.

 Will work closely with student. Commented [Office9]: I had Special Ed. Assistant in the
classroom to work with special needs students.

X. English Language Learners (ELLs):

 ELL Instructional Assistant will be present in the room to work with a

student.

 Modeled shapes pattern to students and have him or her copy it. Have

students practice showing another way or organizing shapes pattern.

 Work closely with students.

XI. Technology: none

XII. Self-Assessment:

 Thumb up if you understand shape pattern?
