Anticipatory Set/Multiple Means of Engagement
Getting Attention- This lesson will be presented during Circle Time. It will be presented in a whole group setting. “I need everyone to find their spots and raise your hand when you are ready.”

3. Lesson Opening
“Today we are going to identify the different rooms in a house and what we do in each of those rooms. What kinds of rooms do you have in your house? Let kids answer. What do you do in a (kitchen, bedroom, living room, bathroom, and dining room)? Well today we are going to look at the different rooms in a house and then do a SMARTBoard activity where we sort the different items that belong in each room of a house.”

4. Lesson Body
Procedure/Multiple Means of Presentation- Model, Lead, Test

Part 1

The teacher will:
MODEL: I will pull up the House notebook on the SMARTBoard with the different rooms (living room, bedroom, bathroom, kitchen) and model for my students naming an object and using the pointer to move it to the correct room in the house.
LEAD: Teacher guided problems/discoveries (guided practice)
Once finished labeling I will have students take turns labeling objects and then moving them into the correct room of the house.

Part 2

LEAD: Later on with my assistant I will have the students complete a Trackstar on the different rooms and what you do in those rooms and then have the students find various shapes in the rooms. Adult will ask students to say where each shape is using position words and will prompt if necessary.
TEST: Later during Teacher Time, I will work with each student individually or have my assistant work with them in holding up pictures of different rooms and having students identify the room name and name one thing you do in that room (e.g. picture of kitchen, student would state “Kitchen” or touch kitchen picture and then when asked what you do in a kitchen would say something such as “You cook in a kitchen” or would mimic or touch picture of cooking.

5. Lesson Closing
“Remember that we learned the different rooms in a house and what we do in each of those rooms. I want you to go home and practice with mom or dad, older brother or sister etc. the TrackStar that you completed with Mrs. Henderson to practice learning your rooms and what you do in those rooms and practice with identifying shapes.”

6. Evaluation/Multiple Means of Expression
I will have a chart to record how many rooms the student identifies correctly and whether they can tell me something you do in that room.
