Opportunity Task #1: Social Studies and Arts Lesson Plans


Lesson Plan Format for
Specially Designed Academic Instruction in English (SDAIE)
with SIOP Elements

Grade/Class/Subject: Kindergarten, Art/ Social Studies Teacher: Carrie Rodriguez and Samantha Kaul

Time/Duration of the lesson: 1 hour and 20 minutes

English Language Proficiency of Students: This classroom has 23 students with English only
proficiency and 1 child that is an ELL student with a CELDT score of 4. The English demands of
this lesson are low due to the visual representations that are presented in the book and maps.

Standards:
2.4 Paint pictures expressing ideas about family and neighborhood.
5.3 Point out images (e.g., photographs, paintings, murals, ceramics, sculptures) and symbols
found at home, in school, and in the community, including national and state symbols and icons.

Unit/Theme:

Theme is the purpose of maps and globes.


As we have been exploring maps and globes, the students will have the opportunity to create a
map of the school. They will then have a student from second grade use their map and go to a
selected area within that map.

Lesson Topic:

Students will be able to read and create their own map. The map will need to be legible enough
for another person to read the map and use it to get to their final destination.

Focus Question: What is a directional map and what is the use of a directional map?

Objectives:
Content:
Students read a map and follow it to get to the final destination. Students will create their own map
illustrating our school. They will also pick a location in which they will mark with a heart indicating that
it’s the final destination someone must get to.

Language: Students will work independently for the first part of the assignment and visually illustrate a
map that lays out a picture of our school. Once they have the layout done they will have the opportunity to
collaborate with other classmates in the creation of their maps. As a class we will have a discussion using academic
language that emphasizes mastery of the concept of a map, what a map entails and the purpose of a map. Students
will articulate verbally their opinions as well as articulate their ideas through their artwork, which would be their
map.

Assessment:

The assessment will be the directional map the students create. The visual representation, if it
was done correctly, will show mastery. For the students that did not create an accurate
representation of a map a, further conversation will be necessary to ensure that the gaps in
knowledge are filled. The teacher will then need to determine if the mistake was done because
they don't understand where it goes on a map or if there was confusion based on directional
stance of the child. For example, when my students are standing in one direction, our classroom
looks like it is on their right hand. However, if we stand facing a different location, the class is
now on their left-hand side. This can cause confusion for the children. Within the conversation, it
will be apparent if that is the case, or if they did not understand the process of creating a map

Key Vocabulary:
Map, treasure, Near, far, left, right, behind, in front of, next to

Supplementary Materials:
A directional map
Paper
Pencils
Colored markers
Stickers- Stickers that have the words exit, arrows, footsteps and hearts.

Technology in Support of Learning:


There was no use of technology for this lesson plan.

Anticipated Misunderstandings/Difficulties:

Since we have done a map of our classroom, I anticipate that students will think we are
constructing maps of the classrooms that are similar to how they look on the inside, instead of a
map of the entire school. The objective is to create a map of the entire school and not focus on
the inside of each classroom.

I also anticipate that my students will have difficulty placing parts in the correct location and
based on how they are facing the school. Although having them outside of the classroom could
potentially cause some of the misconceptions the walk through that will be done in the
introduction of the lesson could decrease the likelihood of this being an issue.
