Teacher(s):

Subject:

Shelby Hall

Social Studies

Standard(s):

Standard: G3.1SS.C1.PO1 Strand 1: American history, Concept 1: Research skills for history.
PO 1: Use timelines to identify the time sequence of historical data.
Objective/Sub-Objectives: SWBAT (Sequenced from basic to complex):

How will you review past learning and make connections to previous lessons?
What skills and content are needed to ultimately master this lesson objective?
How are the objective(s) relevant to students, their lives, and/or the real world?

Students will be able to read a timeline and answer questions from the timeline.
SWBAT: Read a timeline properly
SWBAT: Answer questions from a timeline correctly
Evidence of Mastery (Measurable):

Include a copy of the lesson assessment (if applicable).

Provide exemplar student responses with the level of detail you expect to see.

Students will complete 5 questions from a worksheet that accompanies the timeline A day in
the Life of a Baker. They will work on the worksheet independently to show their
understanding for how to read a timeline. Exemplary student work will be scoring a 5/5 on the
independent practice worksheet.
Safety Management Strategy:

What precautions will be used to ensure student safety?

What classroom management strategies will be used to promote on-task behaviors?
How will students be redirected for unwanted behaviors?

Students will be given specific safety instructions before the physical activity start. They will be
told to stand up, push in their chairs for safety and put their arms out to their sides to make sure
they have enough room to move around without touching anyone. If any student is not following
directions they will be asked to choose step and will not be allowed to participate in the activity.
Differentiation/Modification:

What accommodations/modifications will you include for student with cognitive
delay?
What accommodations/modifications will you include for student with physical
handicap?

Cognitive modifications- If I had any students with intellectual disabilities I would stand next to
any student who has an intellectual disability and demonstrate exactly how to do the activity (I
dont have any students with intellectual disabilities in my classroom), Physical disability
modifications- If I had any students with physical disabilities, depending on their physical
disability I would make the activity easier for them to complete, instead of two squats they could
do one to two toe touches and instead of two jumping jacks they could do one or two jumping
jacks standing in place instead of actually jumping.
Key Vocabulary:

Materials:

Timelines: something that shows events in the

order that they happened.
Chronological order: events in the order that
they happened

section so that another person
could teach it?

Have you ever wondered what people do all

day at their jobs? Well today we will look at
a day in the life of a baker. Pass out the A
Day in the Life of a Baker timeline and
questions. Explain that the timeline shows a
series of events in chronological order. The
can be displayed in short amounts of time,
such as hours or minutes. Have them look at
the timeline of a typical day at the bakery.
Model answering the first two questions
explaining how you found the answers
(using the timeline).

Students will be sitting quietly and watching the

teacher model the first two questions. They may
ask questions after the teacher has finished
modeling.

During Guided Practice Teacher Will:

During Guided Practice Student Will:

How will you ensure that all

students have multiple
opportunities to practice new
content and skills?
What types of questions can you
ask students as you are observing
them practice?
How/when will you check for
understanding?
How will you provide guidance to all
students as they practice?
How will you explain and model
behavioral expectations?
Is there enough detail in this
section so that another person
could facilitate this practice?

Have students work with a partner to

complete the next three questions about the
timeline. Go over the answers and explain to
the students that if they agreed with your
answer they will do two squats and if they
disagreed with your answer they will do two
jumping jacks. You will do this for all three
questions. Students will be given safety
expectations: you must stand up, push in
your chairs for safety, put your arms out to
the side to you to make sure you have
enough space and follow all directions for
the physical activity to make sure you do not

knowledge/skills required of the
objective, with your support, such that
they continue to internalize the subobjectives?
How will students be engaged?
How will you elicit student-to-student
interaction?
How are students practicing in ways
that align to independent practice?

Students will work with their shoulder partner on

the next three questions from the timeline. Then
they will participate in the physical activity
when the teacher is going over the answers.

hurt yourself or anyone else. Cognitive

modifications- If I had any students with
intellectual disabilities I would stand next to
any student who has an intellectual disability
and demonstrate exactly how to do the
activity (I dont have any students with
intellectual disabilities in my classroom),
Physical disability modifications- If I had
any students with physical disabilities,
depending on their physical disability I
would make the activity easier for them to
complete, instead of two squats they could
do one to two toe touches and instead of two
jumping jacks they could do one or two
jumping jacks standing in place instead of
actually jumping.
During Independent Practice Teacher
Will:

How will you plan to coach and

correct during this practice?
How will you provide opportunities
for remediation and extension?
How will you clearly state and
model academic and behavioral
expectations?
Did you provide enough detail so
that another person could facilitate
the practice?

Have students complete the last five

questions for independent practice. Fast
finishers can create their own timeline about
someones typical day. They can interview
someone else who finished early,
documenting what they do and what time
they do it. They will put the information in
chronological order with a title, times, events
and illustrations.

During Independent Practice Student Will:

How will students independently

practice the knowledge and skills
required by the objective?
How will students be engaged?
How are students are practicing in
ways that align to assessment?
How are students using selfassessment to guide their own
learning?
How are you supporting students giving
feedback to one another?

Students will work on the last five questions for

independent practice. They will work
independently and they may raise their hand if
they need support or have questions for the
teacher. If they finish early, they can interview
another student who is also finished and then
create a timeline about that students typical day.

Closing/Student Reflection/Real-life Connections:

How will students summarize and state the significance of what they learned?
Why will students be engaged?

Come back and discuss objective once everyone has finished the independent practice. If
students feel we have met the objective they will show this by doing two arm raises, if they feel
they did not fully meet the objective they will show this by doing two squats. . Students will be
given safety expectations: you must stand up, push in your chairs for safety, put your arms out to
the side to you to make sure you have enough space and follow all directions for the physical
activity to make sure you do not hurt yourself or anyone else. . Cognitive modifications- If I had
any students with intellectual disabilities I would stand next to any student who has an
intellectual disability and demonstrate exactly how to do the activity (I dont have any students
with intellectual disabilities in my classroom), Physical disability modifications- If I had any
students with physical disabilities, depending on their physical disability I would make the
activity easier for them to complete, instead of two arm raises they could do one or two arm
raises without standing up on their calves and instead of two squats they could do one or two toe
touches. This physical activity will help let me know how the students feel about meeting the
objective for the day.

Post Lesson Reflection

Incorporating physical activity into a social studies lesson is a very simple way to help
students be active as well as increased their engagement. For this lesson, students were
answering questions that went along with a timeline about a day in the life of a baker. One thing
that went well during this lesson was that this physical activity greatly increased student
engagement. One of the highlights of the activity was when the students asked Can we do this
again? The students really liked this because it is something they have never done before and it
allowed them to get up out of their seats during the lesson. It was also a great way for the teacher
to check for understanding. During one of the questions, one student disagreed with the teacher
about the answer to a question so she made sure to review this question so the student could see
how she got the answer. She did this for all 3 questions, having the students do different physical

ASSSIGNMENT 7:1 PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

activities each time. This lesson went very well and went mostly as planned and the students
seemed to really enjoy it. However, some students had trouble following directions. They were
told to only do two of the physical activities and instead they did multiple arm raises or jumping
jacks. This may be because this activity is so new to the students, over time with practice and
guidance; they should be able to do this activity following all directions the first time. The
teacher candidate received some great feedback from her mentor teacher. The mentor teacher
noticed how engaged and excited the students were to get out of their seats and move around.
The activities were structured so students werent just running around the room; there was a clear
purpose for the physical activities. They have even discussed incorporating more physical
activities like this into more lessons. Throughout the physical activity part of the lesson, most of
the students were on task and well behaved. However, the teacher candidate did have to remind
them to only do two squats, arm raises or jumping jacks, because many of them did more than
two. She had to say Make sure you follow directions or we wont be able to participate in this
activity. She also gave social approval to students who were participating and following
directions by nodding my head and smiling to show them they were doing what they were
supposed to. Also, she overlooked inconsequential behavior when the students were talking
during the physical activity. During the lesson the teacher candidate was moving around quite
often to support students who had questions or needed help. She was constantly up and moving
around the room and during the physical activities she participated as well. It seemed that the
teacher candidate was able to reach all of the students because she was walking around the room
during the entire lesson. During the physical activities part of the lesson, there seemed to be
pretty short student response latency. When she told the students to stand up and push in their
chairs they did it immediately. She explained the directions and expectations for the activity and

ASSSIGNMENT 7:1 PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

then she asked them the question that accompanied activity. They all participated as soon as she
finished asking the question. When we were done they all sat back down in their seats and
moved on to the next part of the lesson. To ensure that all physical activities have seamless
transitions and efficiency, the teacher candidate could make sure to explain all directions and
expectations in detail before having the students start the activity and she could also have a word
that she could say such as go to signal that they are to start the activity. Overall it was a great
lesson that helped increase the students physical activity during the day and hopefully they can
continue to incorporate physical activities into lessons every day.
