Did the children meet the objective? How do you know?
My objective was to give students the opportunity to refine their fine motor skills, recognition of shapes (specifically the circle), recognize colors and finally to use their own creative thinking in creating their individual pizza. I thought you should state your objective(s) so teacher would know what talking about when say you met them- see if the objectives I wrote are correct????All of the students met the objectives for cutting and gluing; the fine motor skills. I ended up drawing out the circles for the pizza crust for the whole class, instead of only for the 1st grade students. Was second grade the others?????? They were able …show more content…
While teaching the lesson I asked the students questions to keep them engaged. I started by asking them what the usual shape of a pizza is; they all exclaimed CIRCLE! I then showed them the pre-drawn circle on the tan piece of paper and cut carefully around the lines. Then I asked what comes next on a pizza? Some kids said cheese, but most remembered that sauce was the next ingredient. All of the students knew that sauce was red. I cut the red circle. Next we talked about cheese. We talked about how there can be different colors of cheese such as white and yellow. We also talked about the shape of the cheese that one would put on to a pizza. I asked if they knew what a cheese grater looked like; to my surprise, most did. Most of the students were also able to tell me that after the cheese comes out of the cheese grater it is in the shape of a skinny rectangle. In my example I simply added pepperoni, which everyone knew to be a circle, but I reminded everyone to be as creative as they like.
Ramie not sure you answered HOW do you know the objective(s) were met. Perhaps you would say I know through observation. The quality of the end result; their pizzas. The variety of toppings they came created.
