Lesson Plan

1Opening (5 min)

Celebrate Day 100 with a special math exploration of shapes and patterns

💭 Review Question: What shapes did we learn about in our previous lessons this week?
2Teaching (10 min)

Explore shape patterns and geometric design principles

📌 Key Talking Points:
  • Review shape classifications from previous lessons
  • Discuss how shapes can create beautiful, orderly patterns
  • Explain the project's creative mathematical approach
💬 Discussion Questions:
  • How do mathematicians use shapes in design?
  • What patterns can we create using different shapes?
3Activity: Day 100 Shape Pattern Art (20 min)
project

Create a geometric artwork using at least 10 different classified shapes

📝 Instructions:
  1. Select shapes from your classification chart
  2. Trace and cut out shapes in various colors
  3. Design a symmetrical pattern using your shapes
  4. Create a title that celebrates mathematical creativity
🔄 Variations:

Simpler: Use fewer shapes and simpler patterns

Challenge: Create a complex tessellation with interlocking shapes

4Closing (5 min)

Share and discuss geometric artworks

📝 Review Questions:
  • What shapes did you use in your pattern?
  • How does your artwork show mathematical thinking?

Coming up: Tomorrow we'll explore line symmetry in shapes
