1 1 Rachel Faruque Unit Lesson Plan MATH 410 Spring 2010 For my geometry unit on relationships within triangles, I used the 2004 Prentice Hall geometry book. I preferred this text to others because it not only covered the material in an effective, straightforward approach; but it also had problems with real world significance and a section of problems similar to what you would find on a standardized test. As my teaching strategy, I used a combination of dialectic and exogenous in most lessons as I used PowerPoint presentations to guide my lecture, while still asking the students to explore the concepts on their own. After each example was given, I included an additional example for the students to solve by themselves and then work out on the board and explain to the class if selected. Students were also given the chance to work together on the practice at the end of each lesson, which I often tried to make a fun activity that had relevance to the real world. At the beginning of most classes, a warm-up was included on material from the previous class that was similar to a question that might possibly appear on a standardized test in order to better prepare students for a standardized test, while letting them review. Since geometry is a subject that requires proofs, writing was involved in several of the lessons. Students were asked to write proofs, and to explain their answers to several of the problems in their homework or during the lecture. They were also asked to keep a math journal to reflect on larger tasks, such as a test, quiz, or project in order to keep them, and myself, aware of what they struggled in and why. In order to address any special needs of students, I allotted time at the end of each class for the students to begin their homework in case anyone was confused by the lesson, and also time to go over any lingering homework questions at the beginning of every class. I also attempted to use visual aids whenever possible for students who learn better from illustrations and diagrams. Since this unit contains a lot of vocabulary terms, misconceptions could very easily occur if a student confuses two or more definitions. Section 5.3 has an exceptionally large amount of new terms that the students have never seen before and many of the definitions are very similar. However, I scheduled an entire class period in the computer lab with guided worksheets on the material covered in 5.3 in order to help the students get a better grasp on the material. The Geometer s Sketchpad had several applications that related directly to the material covered in this unit, so I took the opportunity to let the class explore with this program on two different occasions. For assessments, I assigned the students homework every night we covered a new topic and collected it for either an accuracy or effort grade, but not before going over any questions or concerns the students may have had. I also scheduled a quiz on the material covered in lessons 1, 2, and 3 in order to make sure the students had a firm grasp on the material before we moved on to more difficult concepts. A final test is also included on the last day of the unit.
2 2 NCTM objectives for this unit: Grades 9 12 Expectations: In grades 9 12 all students should analyze properties and determine attributes of two- and three-dimensional objects; establish the validity of geometric conjectures using deduction, prove theorems, and critique arguments made by others; use trigonometric relationships to determine lengths and angle measures. DPI standards for this unit: Competen cy Goal 2 The learner will use geometric and algebraic properties of figures to solve problems and write proofs. Objectives 2.01 Use logic and deductive reasoning to draw conclusions and solve problems Apply properties, definitions, and theorems of angles and lines to solve problems and write proofs Apply properties, definitions, and theorems of two-dimensional figures to solve problems and write proofs: a.
