Building Lesson PLans
Transcript: The Assessments Kidwatching, observational notes, anecdotal records, photographs, checklists, what else??? (i) High functioning student I. was correct in identifying items that sank and or floated. He correctly placed items that sank on the “sink” side of the chart and items that floated on the “float” side. This shows he understands the concepts well enough to predict, analyze, and report results. http://education.ohio.gov/getattachment/Topics/Ohios-Learning-Standards/Science/ScienceStandards.pdf.aspx Observations will help! Overview Why are you teaching the lesson? Struggling Student Collected Data: Observational notes were recorded for 4 weeks during classroom activity. This included free play, small group work, and one-on-one discussions. b. The copy (copies) of my data collection tool: my data is shown here: B. The results of the data I collected: As each child picked up an item they predicted if it would sink or float. Then, they placed the item into the bowl of water and observed. Some independently exclaimed their observations while others needed prompting, “What did it do?”. If the child described the object correctly I wrote a Y for yes. N= no. I made other notes as necessary and have my anecdotal notes as well as photographs for data collection. Description: R. used his Rt. hand to squeeze the eye dropper. He filled it with paint and squeezed it onto the shaving cream. He kept the liquid inside the container. Interpretation: R. has good small motor control. He may be ready for holding a pencil and assessing proper grasp (as in the ELA). THE LESSON: Children will participate in a sink or float activity Pre-Assessment WATER 3. Objectives/Goal a) knowledge objective The child may explore the observe objects that float. i) content subject (Math, Language Arts… ): Science a. strand: Physical Science (PS) b. topic : Properties of Everyday Objects and Materials c. standard statement: Objects and materials can be sorted and described by their properties. Lesson Ideas... The meaning of the data for planning the lesson The data collected showed me that the students still have room to develop their understanding of concepts of sink/ float. Only the HF student seems to have a good grasp of the vocabulary words and their meanings. The Avg. and S. student still need more experience with playing with objects in water to construct their knowledge of this concept. A lesson plan on sink and float should help all children in the class with their understanding of scientific properties. PLAY, write up objectives Objectives/ Goal Your Ideas...? Making Stew Car Racing/ Measuring Scavenger Hunts Lesson Plan- Part A A. The assessment: Kidwatching Observation 1. How I collected the data: I wrote down anecdotal notes while observing the children in their daily classroom activities. 2. (copy of tool) copy and paste table of info (OR a work sample) B. The results of the data I collected: By observing the children's interaction with water play in the classroom and in the bathroom sinks, I was able to assess each one's understanding of different properties of water. I wrote down conversations they had with me as well as peers and recorded data of impromptu experiments like sink or float. I have assessed that the children I am observing are still learning concepts of sink vs float. Description: I. spent 15 mins. in the sink. I watched him hold his left and right hand open under the water. He opened and closed his hand as water fell onto it. Anecdotal Record #2 ece 402/ 502 Interpretation: I. benefits from sensory play. When allowed, he spends lot of time playing with water in the sink. This tells me that he may benefit from waterplay in a sensory tub. Anecdotal Record #1 Pre-Assessment J. moved around the experiment while others participated. He did not respond to the first 2 verbal directions to choose an item. A teacher took his hand and pointed to the items while saying, “J’s turn”. Following this J. yelled loudly while jumping up. He took an item and made a large overhead arm swing. A teacher modeled placing an item into the bowl while touching J on the shoulder. J. looked at her and laughed and then copied the placement of his own objet in the bowl. As it floated to the top, J stood up and clapped while smiling. He did not respond to the teacher who asked, “What did it do?”, but kept clapping and smiling. To explore properties of water as well as weights of different objects and observe their relation to water. what did you see? AGE: 3-5yrs Grade Level: Pre-K Special Needs: For this activity individual picture direction cards may be supplied for children who require them. Quiet toys will also be used to aid children in waiting for their turn. Rationale: Meaning of the data Plan the lesson with the HELP of your mentor teacher Get permission from ME!
