2. Lesson Plan:
• Title of the unit: Playing with shapes
• Unit of study: Maths - Geometry
• Group: 4 years old children (Pre-school)
3. Learning objectives:
• To identify basic shapes (circle, square, triangle
and rectangle)
• To draw basic shapes following the teacher’s
instructions
• To draw a monster by using basic shapes
(circle, square, triangle and rectangle) [Fast-
finishers activity]
• To describe the monster using the vocabulary
they already know (shapes and colours) [Fast-
finishers activity]
4. Competences involved:
• Linguistic and audiovisual communication
• Mathematical competence
• Data processing and digital competence
• Learning to learn
• Competence in knowledge and interaction with
the physical world
5. What children should
know first?
• Instruction
verbs/actions: listen,
draw, colour…
• Colours: red, blue,
green, yellow, pink,
purple, orange…
• Classroom materials:
pencil, crayons, smart
board, rubber…
What are they
going to learn?
• Square
• Circle
• Triangle
• Rectangle
13. Fast-finishers activity:
• Drawing a monster on a paper by using shapes
and colours.
• Learning objectives:
-To draw a monster by using basic shapes
(circle, square, triangle and rectangle)
-To describe the monster using the
vocabulary they already know (shapes and
colours)
14. Reflections:
• Children got excited because they noticed they
knew the colours in English (revision)
• They loved doing an online activity on the smart
board (smth new for them and occasional)
• They got overexcited when doing the online
activity because they realised they were
managing pretty well
• They followed the instructions correctly when
doing the Shapes & Colour Dictation
(assessment)
15. Changes??
• Of course, there can be changes…
since there were no fast-finishers, I would use
the ‘Drawing monster’ activity in the next lesson
to revise what they have learnt and to foster the
new vocabulary.
