5. Procedures/Methods-
|
|
A. Introduction-
| Explain that it soon will be Dr. Seuss' birthday. Do you know who
Dr. Seuss was? He wrote many stories with words which rhyme. |
| |
|
|
B. Development-
1.Explain that rhyming words are words that sound the same at the
end, such as mop and pop.
2.Show students how the words both end with /op/. Explain that another
word can be made which rhymes with mop and pop.
3.Ask students to help with the new word. It begins with /h/ and ends
with /op/. What is the new word?
4.Tell them that as they hear 'Cat in the Hat' to listen for words
which rhyme. |

|

C. Practice-
1.During the oral reading of 'Cat in the Hat', ask students to put
a thumbs up when they hear a rhyming word.
2.Explain that after the story they will be able to create rhyming
pairs on their own cat in the hat.
2.Discuss rhyming words periodically throughout the read aloud.
3.Ask students to call out another rhyming word throughout the story. |

D. Independent Practice-
1.Once the students have heard 'Cat in the Hat', show them a paper
with cat picture and a hat picture. There are two non-rhyming words
within each picture (one on the cat, one on the hat).
2.Ask if the words rhyme (NO).
3.Tell students that they will each get a page of their own to decorate
and cut out the cat and the hat.
4.Tell students once they have cut out their two pictures, they will
play a game.
5. Students will walk around the room and match their cat and hat
to another students cat and hat, so that they will each have a cat
and hat with a rhyming pair (note: students may need to go to one
or more students to find a match). Once they have a match, they will
KEEP THEIR OWN CAT AND GIVE THEIR HAT TO THE OTHER PERSON. They next
glue the rhyming hat on to the cat. Once finished, call the children
to the floor with their cat and hat pairs. They will decide, as a
class, whether to use them for either a wall display on rhyming words,
or in a classroom book. |

E. Accommodations (Differentiated Instruction)-
1.Assist with cutting for those children who have not mastered the
skill.
2.Display rhyming word pairs for students who may need a visual.
3.As needed, for students who need significant assistance with rhyming
words, cover up the onset and show them the rime so they can see how
the words are alike. |
| |
|
|
F. Checking for understanding-
1.Once complete, call students to the floor and have them each say
their rhyme pair.
2.Collect the pictures and play Pep Step Rhyme: Students stand up
and listen as I say a pair of words. If the words rhyme, the children
step forward. If the words do not rhyme, they step backward.
3.Sit back down; ask students to come up with a third rhyming word
to two which I provide. |
| |
|
|
G. Closure-
1.Think of two rhyming words and whisper them to your neighbor.
EXTENSION ACTIVITIES: Play RHYME HUNT: In the room, find something
which rhymes with bear (chair), sock (clock), took (book), etc.
RHYME BOOK: Give each student a page with a picture of something at
the top (ball, hat, chair, etc.). Students draw or write examples
which rhyme with their picture. Assemble into a class book on rhymes.
RHYME MATCH: (3 or more players) Similar to Go-Fish, create cards
with pairs of rhyming words. Students hold cards where they can only
see their own card. They ask another student for a card with a word
which rhymes with one they have. If the student has it, they take
it and put the match to the side. Play until all cards are gone.
MATCHING GAME: Students lay the rhyme pair cards face down and take
turns turning two cards over. The object is to find matches. Once
a match is found, the student keeps the cards and play continues until
all cards are gone. |
