Name: Fatema saeed Grade Level: Grade 3- section 2

CCSS Standards: SHAPE AND SPACE. line symmetry within a shape.

Main Lesson Aims (Concepts, Procedures, & Processes ):

The student will be able to find the line symmetry within a shape.

Main Lesson Aims (Concepts, Procedures, & Processes):

 The students will be able to explore the concept of symmetry by showing a picture of

butterfly.

 The students will be able to identify about lines of symmetry of 2D shapes (Square,

triangle, rectangle, circle, octagon, pentagon and hexagon).

 The students will be able to find the lines of symmetry of 2D shapes (Square, triangle,

rectangle, circle, octagon, pentagon and hexagon) and draw it on their A3 paper.

Materials: PowerPoint, pictures of signs, rules in cards,

I will encourage them to engage .

Engage (warm up, review prior knowledge): time:

 After greeting, I will show them the picture of butterfly, then ask them
about notes that they see.
 I will fold the both sides of butterfly to get equal parts, then they find 20 min
concept of symmetry within shape.
 I will show them 2D shapes (Square, triangle, rectangle, circle, octagon,

pentagon and hexagon) one by one to explain the line of symmetry.

 I will draw the lines on paper of shape after fold it and get equal part.
Core (introduce and practice new concepts & procedures):

 I will make 7 groups of 3 in mix ability.

 I will provide them A3 paper and 2D shape to draw it and draw the lines of
symmetry on it.
 I will give them 5 minute for each shape.
 I will ring the bell after 5 minutes to stop work and move on another table
to do another shape until do 7 shape for each group.

35 min

Close (wrap up, discussion, brief review activity or assessment): 5 min

 I will show them 2D shapes (Square, triangle, rectangle, circle, octagon,

pentagon and hexagon) to tell me how many lines of symmetry have on
