Topic: Identifying and
describing 2-D shapes
Class: 1
Subject: Mathematics
Creation of the
material
I used power point
presentation to create the content based material on this topic. I used
different colored shapes to let students identify and understand the
description of the shape. Colorful designs will attract children’s interest in
learning. I also used animation to the description and the shapes so that they
don’t get confused with many shapes at last. Then I used pictures of different
shapes to let children identify the shapes and name it correctly. Mental
imagery is an effective learning strategy and that stimulating students to do
so, rather than focusing on the words only, may enhance their understanding of
the content.
How to use?
Children can look at
the power point presentation carefully and learn to identify and describe the
2-D shapes they see in there as there is voice over in the ppt which explains
everything about the shapes. They can write down what they learned from the
power point presentation. If they didn’t understand, then they can revisit the
ppt whenever they wish to as it will be access to everyone who has link.
Teacher can also use the ppt to teach the topic on 2-D shapes using a projector
and also give activities from the ppt.
When to use it?
If we are going to
teach this topic in the real classroom, we can use the ppt during lesson input
where they can experience a new learning material. Through this ppt, they can
understand much better as they are exposed to new learning material and the
colorful designs will obviously attract their interest and attention. As there
is visual representation of shapes in the ppt, they can remember the lesson for
a longer term.
Activity 1
After they have watch
the ppt, they are going to write the names of the shape they remember from the
ppt as well as they can draw each shape accordingly.
Activity 2
At the end of the ppt,
there is a table with shapes where the children will have to copy down the
table from the ppt, and then they will write down the number of edges and
corners of the shapes given in the table.
