Getting Into Shapes! Created by: Diana Misso Peer Review Focus Question ▪ Do my assessments fairly assess the students’ ability to recognize and draw shapes? ▪ How can I improve my essential question(s)? Elementary Level Learning Experience ▪ Trinity Catholic Academy – Urban Catholic School in South Buffalo – PK – 8 – Approximately 120 students ▪ Taught in March 2013 – One week (5 days) of 45 minute classes Grade Level/Ability of Students ▪ Second Grade Class of 10 students – 5 boys, 5 girls ▪ Two students have IEP’s ▪ Two students receive Title 1 Math services ▪ Rules & Procedures have been established (Page 19) NYS Common Core Learning Standard 2.G.1 Standard Area: Mathematics Domain: Geometry (G) Cluster: Reason with shapes and their attributes. Recognize and draw shapes having specified attributes, such as a given number of angles or a given number of equal faces. Identify triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and cubes. Standard 1: Objective To recognize and identify two- dimensional shapes in order to develop a deeper understanding of geometry and its’ role in everyday life. Enduring Understandings Geometry is a representation of the world around us. Geometric shapes exist in the natural and the manmade world. Objects can be analyzed, sorted, and compared by attributes. Essential Questions How can I use shapes and equal parts? How do we use geometry to make sense of the real world? Guiding Questions How many sides & angles does a shape have? Describe a shape by its given name, number of sides, and/or number of angles. What are examples of objects in school that look like 2D shapes?
