Telling time lesson plan/activity?We Answered:
Well, you could have them make analog clocks out of paper plates.They decorate the plate and put on the numbers, and then cut out big and little hands from cardboard. (Index cards work well for this --- give each kid one) You should have a model of sets of hands -- you could probably draw several sets on one sheet of paper and photocopy it.
You'll need a clock, too. Most toy stores have them, or you can make one yourself for the kids to see. Attach the hands to the center of the
clock with metal "brad" fasteners so they'll be able to move. When you've all got clocks, then first do the hours and half hours. Show them a time (eg 8:00, 7:30) and when they've got that idea, choose kids to show different times and have the others guess. Then you'd move to quarter past and quarter to. You need to explain that quarter past 3 is the same as 3:15. If you get further than that, then explain that there are 60 minutes in an hour and have them count by 5's to 60
while you move the big hand around. Then they model different times
on their own clocks. This is a long lesson and would normally take a couple of days, because they won't remember it all. But since they're in third grade, they should catch on to some of it. Even though you're a field student, you want to make a good impression, so whatever you do, have an agenda and all of your materials ready. Good luck!

Teachers, do you have enough time in your classes to implement a complete and thorough unit lesson plan?We Answered:
As an Elementary school teacher, I had time to implement and complete a thorough unit lesson plan, meeting the number of "standards" expected to be taught. Most elementary students are eager to learn, and are not aware of "standards".When I taught Middle School and High School students, I found it very effective if I sent home a list of standards my students would be expected to achieve. Even more effective was to have a one-on-one conversation with each parent of each of my students. Parents don''t have time to come to school to meet with me? I went to the home of the student. Parents need to know their child's teacher cares, and the child needs to know the teacher cares.

Any ideas for a lesson plan for adults and children's groups about teaching the story of John Henry?We Answered:
I know for a fact that Samuel L. Jackson has narrated the famous illustrated version of it. I wanna say it's a Reading Rainbow thing. It's available on United Streaming, but I think you have to have a membership to view it. It's out there though, and he does a good job with it. The famous version of it won the Coretta Scott King award (I think, lol). If not that one, then it won the Caldecott. It's watercolors and has all sorts of great literary devices you could pick apart.Alfred Said:
Lesson plan to teach preschool students about rain?We Answered:
They are preschool so I could keep it simple but fun.Go to the library and type rain into the computer and get a picture story book that way. Or sing 'It's raining, its pouring the old man is snoring..' Chant 'Rain rain go away come back another day'
I would give them some instruments (if you have them) like drums and tanbourines etc. Sit in a circle and the children make the sound of soft rain (they tap very softy with their fingers). Then the clouds start to get darker and darker, the children tap harder. Bang! for the thunder. Clouds go away, rain gets softer etc. When the rainbow comes out someone could be encouranged to softly hit a triangle.
If you don't have instruments, do it on the floor.
For centres you could have water play, paint a rainy day picture, colour and cut out and an umbrella picture, build a shelter from the rain with blocks (give them two little dolls and tell them to make a shelter for them) etc
Be creative

I need help with creating a thematic teaching unit (speaking, listening, reading & writing).?We Answered:
It sounds like you're trying to come up with one long activity (30 minutes) and that's way too long for preschool kids. If you want to do 30 minutes on the seasons, line the children up and take them for a walk. Discuss what you see and what season it is. Then, back to school and make a list on the white board or a poster board about what you saw: leaves, colors, ice, whatever. Let the children tell you what to write. Then read your book. Have a series of four little pictures on strips of paper (one per child). You can do this on the computer using clip art to represent each season. Model for the kids how you will cut the pictures out (make the pictures each in a little box so they are cutting straight lines...easier for the younger ones), then paste them in sequence on pieces of paper to make a little book. The children will explain to you how to sequence the pictures as you help them put the book together, then you can ask them to help you write the words spring, summer, fall, winter on the appropriate pages ( say "ssss-spring...what letter do you think it starts with?). Ask them to try to write the first letter and help them write the rest. The older kids should be able to write the words themselves. Then ask the kids to "read" their book to you so you know they understand and tell them to "read" it to mom or dad at home. There ya go: reading, writing, speaking, and listening!
