Poly spots

Physical Education: Scooter/Wheelchair Jousting

I will strike an object with a long handled implement as I travel toward it.

Lesson Notes/materials: Scooter/Chair Jousting

Materials needed:

  • 2 or more large cones or tee ball tees
  • 2 or more poly spots to designate starting areas
  • 2 or more large foam balls or beach balls
  • 2 or more foam noodles
  • 2 or more scooters/tricycles
  • Rubber bracelets or hair bands to secure noodle to students with difficulty gripping

Solving problems involving decimals

Lesson Outcomes: students will be able to solve single and multi-step decimal problems

Equation Vocabulary (2)

Lesson Outcomes:  The students will identify coefficient, term, variable and classify as equation or expression

Equation Vocab

Lesson Outcomes: Students understand vocabulary for equations

Intro to the Coordinate Plane and its 4 Quadrants

Students will define and then in their own words explain the following terms: x and y axis, coordinate plane, quadrant, origin, ordered pair

Students will apply their definitions as they create and label their coordinate plane.

Students will demonstrate their knowledge on a homework assignment due the next day.  The assignment is a puzzle with a coordinate plane.  In each quadrant, letters are plotted and students solve the puzzle by correctly matching the letter to its ordered pair.

Introduction of Circles/ Discovering Pi

In this lesson, we will discuss vocabulary associated with circles (radius, diameter, circumference), which most students should be familiar with, and discuss why the formulas similar to what we used with polygons for area and perimeter won’t work with circles (circles don’t have sides, aren’t polygons).  Once that discussion is over, I will introduce Pi and ask if any students have heard of it (not the kind you eat!) and tell them it’s the “magic” number when it comes to circles.  We will then do the activity, which is the main part of today’s class.

Parts is Parts

Students will demonstrate a fair share by drawing pictures, making a chart, or by using manipulatives.

Students will manipulate parts of a whole and make a whole from fractional parts.

Students will demonstrate and describe equivalencies using the fraction strips.
