Description: Integrate Literacy and fundamental geometry skills with this fully scripted 1 hour math lesson.  The powerful pattern seeker that is our brain loves to make connections!  Your students will:

• Participate in an interactive read aloud with a geometric math focus
• Collaborate with peers and practice the "language" of mathematics
• Take "notes" in an interactive math journal
• Distinguish between defining and non-defining attributes (e.g., color, orientation, overall size) of two-dimensional shapes
• Build and draw shapes with defining attributes to create composite shapes

CCSS: 1.G.A.1 & 1.G.A.2

Skills: Work in pairs to practice the language of math by identifying attributes of 2 dimensional shapes and  key geometry vocabulary Practice taking notes for math ...

Description: It can be very challenging for 1st graders to "see" the attributes of 2D shapes - well, they are flat!  In this 1 hour fully scripted math lesson your students will:

• Work in pairs to practice the language of math by identifying attributes of 2 dimensional shapes and  key geometry vocabulary
• Practice taking notes for math learning in order to understand defining and non-defining attributes

Description: Teaching math through engaging literary books is the way to go!  In this 1 hour fully scripted math lesson using Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse by Kevin Henkes as a "hook" to learning geometry, your students will:

• Work in pairs to practice the language of math by identifying attributes of 2 dimensional shapes and  key geometry vocabulary
• Practice taking notes for math learning in order to understand defining and non-defining attributes
• Distinguish between defining (e.g., triangles are closed and three-sided) versus non-defining attributes (e.g., color, orientation, overall size)
• Create a t-chart and sort/draw objects by attribute.

CCSS: 1.G.A.1

Description: Thematic learning is the way to go!  Grab this bundle of 6 scripted and engaging lessons and have fun teaching literacy and math skills. 3 Literacy Lessons (25-60 minutes each):

• Identify key ideas and details in an informational text "Growth Cycle of Pumpkins"
• Sequence informational texts
• Determine multiple meaning words/homophones in context

3 Math Lessons (30-60 minutes each):

• Participate in an interactive read aloud of Mouse Shapes by Ellen Stohl Walsh
• Collaborate with peers to practice the "language" of geometry by identifying attributes of two-dimensional shapes (e.g., triangles are closed and three-sided)
• Practice identifying defining attributes of three-dimensional solid shapes (e.g.; cubes are three-dimensional solids, with six faces, twelve edges, and eight vertices) in strategic partnerships
• Distinguish between defining and non-defining attributes (e.g.; color, orientation, overall size) of both two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes and create shapes with defining attributes to create composite shapes

CCSS: RI.2.1-2.3, W.2.2, RF.2.3, 2.G.A.1
