PART I: PLANNING
Title of Lesson
The Metric System
Source
Is this lesson original idea? If not, from what source did I borrow this lesson?Teacher Inspired
Subject Area (s)Math
Grade Level5th
Curriculum Standards
5-5.3- Use equivalencies to convert units of measurement within the metric system: converting length in millimeters, centimeters, meters, and kilometers; liquid volume into milliliters, centiliters, liters, and kiloliters; converting mass in milligrams, centigrams, grams, and kilograms.
Description and Background Information
Describe the lesson’s activities and content to provide a clear overview of the lesson. The lesson begins with the streaming of a video on the history of the Metric System. The progression of the lesson follows with the teacher modeling strategies on conversion method. Strategies such as the ladder method of conversation and basic recall. Students will copy these strategies and apply them in conversation problems.
Lesson Objectives What will students be able to do at the conclusion of this lesson? Make sure that your objective(s) are measurable. At the conclusion of the lesson students will be able to use precise measurements for clothing, cooking, traveling, and taking medication.
Varying Objectives for Individuals Needs
How will I vary these objectives for students who do not understand the material? I will vary objectives with the use of peer tutoring, I will look to pair a weaker student with a stronger student. My hopes is that the weaker student will learn from the stronger student progress.How will I vary these objectives for students who have already mastered the concept?I will vary objectives with the use of peer tutoring, I will look to pair a stronger student with a weaker student. My hopes is that the stronger student will learn from the weaker student progress.
How will I vary these objectives for students who are presently learning English?
Statement of Purpose
Why is it important for the students to learn this content?It is important that students know this content because it is a standard that needs to be covered according to Common Core 5th grade Math Standards.
Materials and Resources
What materials and supplies are needed to help your students achieve the stated objectives? What will the teacher need? What will the students need? What other resources are needed? Will you use resource speakers? Microsoft PowerPoint, StudyIsland.com Pass Coach, Workbook, and Math Workbook
Anticipatory Set What will you do to motivate the students and get their attention? What is the “hook” that will serve as a focus for the lesson’s activities? A united streaming video on the “History of the Metric System” and “The Metric System”
Part II: IMPLEMENTATION
Pre-assessmentHow will I find out what students already know about this topic? I will use various methods of questioning to find out what students already know.
Teacher Modeling or Demonstration
What will I do to show students what is expected? The teacher will model problems from the PowerPoint how to use the algorithm KHDDCM strategy and how to compare units using the less than greater than sign.
Guided PracticeWhat will we do together as they learn how to succeed at the new task? The teacher and student will complete teacher made problems noted in the PowerPoint.
Checking for UnderstandingWhat questions will you ask to determine if students understand so far? What techniques or strategies will be used to determine if students understand so far? I would use an informal assessment where I ask students questions using the stages of Bloom’s Taxonomy. Can you name the basic metric system units? Can you provide an example of items that measure into a meter or have the mass of a gram.
Independent Practice
What will students do by themselves to show that they have internalized the knowledge? Problems from the PowerPoint. Students will also create a poster as a group with an assigned acronym. The papers will be taped on the wall as a reference.
ClosureHow will I conclude the lesson and relate it to future experiences? How will you wrap up the lesson to reinforce concepts taught during the lesson? Each student will jump a step on the ladder method to reinforce the KHDDCM algorithm.
Assessment(attach to lesson plan)
What will students do to demonstrate what they have learned? Students will complete a standards practice worksheet.
Extension ActivitiesWhat can students do at home or in the classroom to apply the knowledge or skills? How could you use your colleagues or community agencies to improve student performance? Students will be assigned homework such as creating 5 problems from basic recall between mm, cm, m, and km.
Technology
How will you use technology to assist students with learning the concepts? What technology will you use to enhance the delivery and comprehension of your content? I will use Microsoft PowerPoint and StudyIsland.com will be my main sources of Technology with assistance in student learning.
Connection Across the Curriculum
How will you connect this lesson with other content areas across the curriculum?
The Arts: Teacher plans as a guided practice activity students draw items and use the metric system to determine the length, mass, or volume.
Health: Teacher plans as a guided practice activity where students use their extremities as the object they are determining the length or mass.
Physical Education: Teacher plans as a guided practice activity where will walk across the classroom and determine the length of distances in the classroom.
PART III: REFLECTION
Strengths
Describe the strengths of your instructional techniques, strategies and classroom management.Describe the strengths of student engagement.
Weaknesses
Describe the weaknesses of your instructional techniques, strategies and classroom management. Describe the weaknesses of student engagement.
Suggestions for Improvement
What would you change when teaching this lesson again?
