A.4 Common Core (Math): 1.MD.B.3 (See next page for details of standards) Social Studies Culture- understand that within any given community, it is built up of many different people coming from all around the world We are more similar to the people around the world than different Understand similarities and differences by focusing on food, schools, holidays, clothes, music, and more

Curriculum Materials: Investigations Unit 7: Math Patterns and Sequences Students Investigations math workbook Supplemental texts for money and time in math Map of the world Passports supplies Poster paper Assorted fairy tale stories Props for play Country research material

Knowledge of Students and Context:

These students are eager to participate in something new and relevant to their lives Students enjoy talking about themselves and are expected to willingly share about their own cultures (food, traditions, music, family life, etc.) Students are eager to volunteer to stand in front of the class to present or share their ideas so either individual/group work to present in front of the class is encouraged 1st graders arent exactly ready to be able to present in front of the class so daily routines and activities will be able to reinforce it

What

Lesson How

Why
Theories of Teaching and Learning: Knowledge is constructedwhat I teach my students need to build off what they currently know and support what they will need to learn in the future (Gardner) Classrooms are responsive Talk moves will be used to engage students and generate higher level of thinking (Chapin) I used to think I myself had a fixed mindset so to move away from that towards a growth mind set, and believing that students have these positive growing mindsets as well (Gardner)

Teaching Methods: Interviews of students cultures and ethnicities will be conducted by following a handout Writing prompts to discuss fairy tale elements, cultural background, etc. Read alouds Art activity of making a mobile of fairy tale elements Art activity for Social Studies to be made after interviewing and getting know the differences between one student and another Each student writes their own fairy tales using 2-3 elements Whole class participation in fairy tale play

Educational Philosophy and Beliefs A safe learning environment must be established where we listen to one another and take turns speaking Each student is an individual, part of a bigger community. It is important to address and value each students opinions and values. Students are interested in learning about the world around them and want to learn. Knowledge is constructed- everything and anything we learn builds off one another
