Lesson Plan: Shape, Position and Movement - Drawing 2D Shapes and Representing 3D Objects

Subject: Mathematics Topic: Shape, Position and Movement Level: Second Level

Desired Outcome: I can draw 2D shapes and make representations of 3D objects using an appropriate range of methods and efficient use of resources.

Focus: Triangle

Learning Intentions: - To identify and name different types of triangles - To draw triangles using a ruler and protractor - To represent 3D objects using 2D shapes - To use appropriate methods and resources to draw and represent shapes

Success Criteria: - I can identify and name different types of triangles - I can draw triangles using a ruler and protractor - I can represent 3D objects using 2D shapes - I can use appropriate methods and resources to draw and represent shapes

Resources: - Whiteboard and markers - Ruler and protractor - Worksheets with different types of triangles - 3D objects (e.g. cube, pyramid, sphere)

Introduction (10 minutes): 1. Begin the lesson by asking the students if they know what a triangle is and if they can name any types of triangles. 2. Show different types of triangles on the whiteboard and ask the students to identify and name them. 3. Explain that in this lesson, we will be focusing on drawing triangles and representing 3D objects using 2D shapes.

Development (30 minutes): 1. Distribute worksheets with different types of triangles and ask the students to draw them using a ruler and protractor. 2. Walk around the classroom and provide support and feedback to the students as they work. 3. Once the students have finished drawing the triangles, ask them to identify the type of triangle they have drawn and name its properties (e.g. acute, obtuse, equilateral, isosceles). 4. Next, show the students different 3D objects (e.g. cube, pyramid, sphere) and ask them to represent them using 2D shapes. 5. Encourage the students to use different methods and resources (e.g. tracing paper, grid paper) to draw and represent the shapes.

Closure (10 minutes): 1. Ask the students to share their drawings and representations with the class. 2. Discuss the different methods and resources used by the students and ask them to reflect on which ones were most effective. 3. Summarize the learning objectives and success criteria for the lesson.

Assessment: - Observe the students as they draw triangles and represent 3D objects using 2D shapes. - Provide feedback and support to the students as they work. - Assess the students’ understanding of the different types of triangles and their properties. - Evaluate the students’ ability to use appropriate methods and resources to draw and represent shapes.
