Sheltered Instruction Lesson Plan

Your Name: Susanne Beydoun ESL Level: Intermediate


Preparation Subject: Math Grade Level(s): Third Grade
Unit Theme: Fractions Lesson Topic: Introduction to Fractions
Standard/s:

CCSS.Math.Content.3.NF.A.1 Understand a fraction 1/b as the quantity formed by 1 part when a


whole is partitioned into b equal parts; understand a fraction a/b as the quantity formed by a parts
of size 1/b.

WIDA: CONNECTION: Common Core Standards for Writing #8 (Grade 3): Recall information
from experiences or gather information from print and digital sources; take brief notes on sources
and sort evidence into provided categories.

Level 3 Developing- State ideas related to research topics following a model using graphic
organizers.

I. PREPARATION
Content (cognitive) Objectives:
Students will be able to:
Identify the numerator and denominator as the part and whole of a fraction
Demonstrate that fractions need to be equal pieces of a whole

Language Objectives: English Language Proficiency, Comprehension (Include 4 language


skills and vocabulary.
Students will be able to:
1. (Listening) Listen to recitations of fractional pieces such as, , , etc.
2. (Speaking) Recite fractional phrases such as as one-fourth
3. (Reading) Read a fractional piece as one-fourth for example if they see
4. (Writing) Write a fraction as a/b form
5. (Vocabulary) Define the terms denominator, numerator, and fraction

Optional:
Socioaffective Objectives
Students will be able to: show respect toward each other when in cooperative learning groups.

Materials:

II. BUILDING BACKGROUND (Motivation, prior knowledge, key vocabulary, lesson focus)

Motivation: Display a picture of a circular cake or have a real cake available. Ask students who
would like a piece? Ask them to describe the piece (big or small) Does anyone want half of the
cake to themselves? (Ask questions that provoke them to think about fraction sizes)
Word Sort with vocabulary words.

Prior Knowledge: Begin describing the sizes of the cake as one-fourth, one-third, half, etc. Ask
students to turn and talk about if they ever heard these phrases before.
Key Vocabulary: Denominator, numerator, fraction

Lesson Focus: Understanding what a fraction is

III. PRESENTATION

1. Students at carpet next to A/B partner with math journal taking notes.
2. Teacher is creating anchor chart of fractions.
3. Explain that when we take pieces of a whole is called a fraction.
4. Write down definition of fractions on anchor chart, students write everything the teacher
writes in their journals.
5. Write a/b. Label a as the part and b as the whole.
6. Write . Draw a whole and split it into fourths. Label 1 as the part/numerator, and 4 as the
whole/denominator.
7. Have students repeat the pronunciation one-fourth 1 part out of 4 fractional pieces is
shaded. This is using strategy #11 from the 40 Active Learning Strategies (Ask students to
involve themselves in their learning by using review strategies such as these: Recite and sing
the information)
8. Write 2/6. Draw 2/6 and label the part and whole. Have students recite how to read 2/6 (two-
sixths)

IV. PRACTICE AND APPLICATION (include 4 language skills, research-based strategies,


scaffolding, and interaction [cooperative learning])

1. Ask students if they are ready to practice. Write down 2/4. Have them draw and label the
numerator and denominator on their white boards. They may work with their A/B partner
and use the anchor chart or notes for reference.
2. Once all students are ready, (indicated by their white board facing down) ask students to lift
boards to spot check.
3. Make notes of students that do not understand. Do a couple more examples.
4. Group students into groups of 3-4.
5. Pass out fractional circles manipulative. Students put the pieces together. They draw and
label the pieces as parts and wholes (numerators and denominators)
6. The teacher walks around monitoring and scaffolding.
7. Using strategy #10 from 40 Active Learning Strategies, students will have 10 minutes to get
the work done. (When you have students work together in pairs, time them. Students who
know that they have only a short time to work together will focus better than those students
who think that they and their partners have all class long to work.)
8. Students are speaking using vocabulary: fraction, denominator, and numerator.

V. REVIEW AND ASSESSMENT (relate assessments to learning objectives)


1. Informal assessment during lesson on white boards using checklist.
2. Informal assessment with manipulative fractional circles when students write the parts that
make of the whole checklist.
3. Formal exit slip. Teacher displays fraction 3/4. Students need to label the numerator and
denominator. Students also need to write the definition of a fraction.
