6. Procedures/Methods-
|
|
A. Introduction-
1. Describe items the teacher points out using previously learned
methods
2. Teacher should confirm their responses by repeating, also adding
in a color to describe it as a lead in |
| |
|
|
B. Development-
1. Using poster, talk about the colors that can be seen
2. Have students repeat the colors back; encourage them to mention
other things they can think of with that color |
| |
|
|
C. Practice-
1. Get them seeing the colors in the room by having them get up
and go pick out an item (toy?) of a specific color, or any item and
saying what color it is; repeat a couple times
2. Lead into the game I Spy |

|
D. Independent Practice-
| Penmanship / association: sheet with the words of colors in dashed
outline for them to trace, followed by a space for them to write it,
followed by an object to be colored using the specified color |
| |
|
|
E. Accommodations (Differentiated Instruction)-
1. Enlarged sheets for anyone with poor eyesight
2. Color words on poster translated into L1 for ELLs |

|
F. Checking for understanding-
1. Teacher should walk through room watching as they fill out the
sheet, taking note of any issues
2. Teacher will divide them into groups, who will each be assigned
on of the pictures; they will pick a spokesperson who will share the
group description (including previously learned descriptors) with
the class and teacher |
| |
|
|
G. Closure-
1. Remind them to bring their favorite item from home for Friday's
show and tell (in which they will employ all descriptors thus far
learned to describe their item)
2. Hand out a picture for them to color for fun at home, explaining
that the best ones will be hung on [some special board of honor];
take up filled-out sheet at the same time |
| |
|
7. Evaluation-
|
1. The filled out sheets can show how well they understood the written
version of a color and how well they associated the color with its
name
2. The discussion times can show how well they understand and associate
when it's spoken
3. ELLs should be watched during speaking that they are putting the
adjective with the noun properly |
