Lesson Title: On the Farm
Circle one:
Assessment of Student Learning
Identify Evidence: (What will you collect or record as data
to demonstrate students have met your objective(s) and
skill?)
I will have a check sheet with each students’ name on it
along with each animal in the book. If the students are able
to act out the animal on each page, they will get a check
by that animal’s name. I will also have a check sheet with
each students’ name on it. They will get a check if they are
able to focus their attention on the activity for at least 5
mins.
Program Monitoring: (How will you aggregate or compile
your evidence into a class or group view?)
I will use these check sheets to see which students need
help expressing their ideas and which students need more
help on focusing on a task at hand.

Academic Language:
Express, focus, farm, animals,
Procedural steps:
1. Ask the students what kinds of animals live on a
farm and write their answers on an anchor chart.
2. Tell the students that we are going to find out if the
animals they said live on this farm in the book Farm
Babies.
3. Inform the students that after I read each page, I
want you to get up and act out how this animal
sounds or moves.
4. Remember that we are sitting next to our friends so
make sure you have enough room to move around
without hurting the friend sitting next to you.
5. Let’s do the first one together. How does a pig
sound? How does a pig move?
6. After each page have the other teacher check off
which student is able to express their ideas on how
each animal sounds and moves.
7. That same teacher should also be noticing which
students are giving their attention to the activity for
at least 5 mins and which are not.
8. After we finish reading the book and expressing how
the animals sound and move, we will revisit the
anchor chart.
9. Ask the students if each animal on the chart was
seen in the book. Were there any in the book that
was not on our chart? Add those animals to the
chart.

Process:
- We will read the book Giraffe Problems by Jory John as a class and talk about the insecurities that we may have and about how God does not
make mistakes. We are made perfectly and everything about us is perfect. We will then cast the roles of each character in the book and create
props and backgrounds for our class play. We will work on practicing our lines and speaking clearly and at an understandable pace. We will
use cue cards if the students are struggling too much. We will practice using the props and working with our classmates on the stage. When
everyone feels comfortable in their role, we will then put on the play in front our school focusing on the overall play.
