Identifying and Constructing Patterns |
|
|
2. Content-
|
Pattern: a particular arrangement of things. You can find patterns
in song, movements, shapes and colors.
Repeat: When something repeats, it happens again. In a pattern, a
color, shape, or sound will repeat in a particular way. |
|
|
3. Goals: Aims/Outcomes-
|
1. Recognize a pattern
2. Constructing and extending a pattern
3. Predicting what comes next in a pattern |
|
|
4. Objectives-
|
1. Sort and describe objects by similar characteristics
2. Create and describe patterns using objects, word and numbers
3.Recognize, replicate, and extend repeating patterns |
|
|
5. Materials and Aids-
|
Dr. Jean Tooty Ta Song
Cubes of only two colors
Shape Pattern worksheet |
|
|
6. Procedures/Methods-
|
A. Introduction-
Show students a picture of a zebra, bee, and a beach umbrella on
the board.
Asking them what do the pictures have in common.
Reading the pattern of the picture together asking them what comes
next.
I will be addressing different kinds of learners: kinesthetic, visual,
auditory |
|
|
B. Development-
Show examples around the classroom with objects or people.
|
|
|
C. Practice-
Model a pattern of clapping hands, snapping fingers repeating it
3 times. Emphasize that I am doing the same action over and over in
the same way. Which is called repeating to make a pattern. Repeat
the pattern. Then ask students to show what action comes next and
to join in the pattern. |
|
|
D. Independent Practice-
1. Provide students with a number of blocks, using only two colors
2. Students will build a tower with the blocks making a pattern
3. Students will predict what comes next in color sequence
4. Then do the Shape Pattern worksheet
|
|
|
E. Accommodations (Differentiated Instruction)-
Provide student with numerous opportunities to practice finding
patterns. Once student had mastered this skill, they can move on to
extending and creating patterns of their own. |
|
|
F. Checking for understanding-
Ask students if they understand, if they don't I will display 4
red and 4 yellow cubes. Asking the student "How can you use these
cubes to create your own pattern?" Possible answer: Line up some cubes.
Then keep adding the same colors over and over.
|
|
|
G. Closure-
IF the student didn't finish the shape pattern works sheet they
will take it home for homework. |
