TAL 324 Lesson Plan

Title: Synonyms and Antonyms
Subject: English
Grade level: 3rd Grade
Component: Reading/Literature
Objective: Students will be able to understand what synonyms and antonyms are and how to differentiate between them

Materials: Worksheet will be printed ahead of time, slides presentation

Warm Up (1 minute): introduce myself to the class and play a 1 minute meditation from headspace on Youtube. This will allow the students to settle into the environment and refocus. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1Ndym-IsQg

Class Lecture (8 minutes): Go through slides presentation that will include the definition of synonyms and antonyms. Ask students if they know what each is before sharing the answers. If they are wrong, be sure to thank them for participating so they feel comfortable sharing their ideas.

Activity (15 minutes): The first activity is a group activity that will cater to outgoing students who like to participate and have attention on them. Words will flash up on the board and students will yell out a synonym for that word. There are many correct answers so be sure to praise students for all their different ideas. The same will then be done for antonyms. Then we will move to the individual activity. The students will complete a worksheet on their own so students who like to do independent work can also get practice.

Assessment (5 minutes) After the students are finished with the worksheet we will go over it together as a class. Students will be encouraged to participate and share their ideas.

Homework: No homework

Cross Curriculum: English Language Arts and Critical Thinking strategies because the students will learn the definition of these terms but also how to differentiate them and use them in sentences.

Differentiation: Students with disabilities will be able to participate in the group activity or written activity whichever they feel most comfortable with. They will also get help from their peers if needed.

Technology: Students in 3rd grade probably won’t have a computer or phone. They can follow along with the presentation on the big screen.

page1image278273552

Written Component: The worksheet incorporates a written component because students were asked to write their own sentence using 2 words that are antonyms.

Career skills: This lesson is a part of language arts and learning to read, write, and can help with reading comprehension. It can also help the students build a bigger vocabulary. These are necessary skills for students to have in almost any career.

Volume I 
Subject: Music
Level: Elementary
Grade: 3rd grade
Component: I Music Literacy
Objective (s): Use any materials in the room to make up a rhythm or sounds with a pattern.
Competency: The student can produce short rhythmic patterns by observing the sounds surrounding them.
Materials: Any objects in the room that can make a sound.

Assessment: Evaluate classmates’ sounds and give them feedback.
Warm-up: Mostly upper body exercises, such as head tilt, chin up and down, shoulder rolls, arm circles, and leg swings. Also one-minute meditation.

They will make a sound first and call another student’s name.

Title  Realistic painting
Course Subject  Creative Drawing
Grade Level  Grade7
Teacher's Name  Haiming Hao


II. Components and Materials

 

Drawing, understanding, Pen, and paper


III. Objective 

Being able to understand what others is drawing, and express what you think to others, or being able to draw.

This is about to train students’ creativity, and the abilities to understand other. Also, they are required to develop the skills to communicate, and know more about others.

IV. Standards 


Complete the activity, take part in and try your best


V. Plan 


At the very beginning of class, students have 30 seconds to draw base on their moods and what they feel. We will take this as attendance. Then we begin to play a spacial game which hopefully everyone can take part in.

The game is called you draw I guess. We will have 50% of the students draw, and the others guess. The first person is going to draw a picture based on an object. It could be anything, such as cars, buildings, cartoon characters, and even celebrities. Then, he/she is going to show, and only show his/her work to the next person. The next person is going to guess what the first one was drawing, and tell the third one what he/she thinks it is. Foe example, rockets. Now the third person is going to draw a rocket, and show it to the fourth. In this wya, everybody could take part in and devote their own wisdom.

By the end, students talk in groups, tell each other why he/she thinks the drawing is. This help them know more about each others.

VI. Assessment
Students are supposed to at least take part in and try their best. Any outcomes could be interesting if you devote yourself into it. Every one who take part in should be rewarded.

   1      November 16, 2021   Beauty in Madness  Ruiyan Qi   I grew up seeing the painting The Starry Night everywhere around me and I always thought it was beautiful although I did not pay much attention to it. It was only after studying the piece of art by Van Gogh that I got to appreciate it. I understood the experiences of the man behind the art and what he was going through at the time and got to appreciate the amount of beauty that comes from negative experiences. Van Gogh was in an asylum when he painted The Starry Night, he was undergoing treatment for a mental illness. He was able to observe the night sky from his room and that is how he was able to paint the magnificent painting that is widely celebrated in the world today.  The painting represents the post-impressionist period that made art of short brushstrokes, use of color and a focus on mood. I chose this piece because it represents how much can be achieved throug...
