    Theme:
    During this unit, students will be working
    under the theme of shapes. Students will
    learn the difference between two-
    dimensional and three dimensional
    shapes. Students will also learn the
    different types of shapes and their
    characteristics.
    Target
    The target subject is kindergarten math. We will also incorporate developmental skills such as, fine-motor
    skills into our activities. Childrens prior encounters with shapes is useful, inevitable really; but is not necessary.

    Objectives

    1. State Goal: After teaching the unit, students will be able to describe the different
    characteristics of shapes then make use of this knowledge in given activities.

    2. State Objective 1: After learning the difference between two-dimensional and three-
    dimensional shapes, students will be able to sort the given manipulatives into the two
    categories without adult assistance.

    3. State Objective 2: After reading The Greedy Triangle by Marilyn Burns, students will be
    able to construct shapes that represents the sides of the character within the given time
    limit.

    4.State Objective 3: After watching a video about the different shapes, five students will
    work on a computer program that categorizes shapes within ten minutes and will then
    alternate with another group.

    Activity 1 will allow children to
    demonstrate what theyve been taught.
    This activity can be done as a group or
    replace pictures with manipulatives.

    Activity 2 is an enjoyable way to teach


    students shapes. The book is fun and
    allows students to share their
    experiences.

    Activity 3 allows us to make use of


    technology! There are a lot of interactive
    games students can when learning.
