Modifications
|
I used a lot of shared reading activities with poetry about homes. I
also played a lot of games and we sang songs to help them remember
the parts of a house. I also played a group game in which they worked
together to identify the names of the furniture with pictures.

Instructional
Objectives
|
Students Will:
- Learn the names of different types of homes
- Learn names of rooms in a house.
- Be able to name the furniture in each room.
|
Technology Integration
|
The children
used KidPix to draw a room with furniture. They were also able
to look up different types of homes and furniture pieces.
|
Assessment
|
I would conference with my students to see if they understood the lessons.
I would also check to see if they were learning the vocabulary during
share time.
|
Tips for Teachers
|
Your students will love this unit. They were so excited to recite the
poetry and identify the different rooms and furniture in the house.
They also enjoyed doing the art project. If I could have had more
time, I would have extended the unit with more activities.
