Language Objectives (ELPS): clear, student-friendly statement language processes or skills in one language domain used
during the lesson.
(5) Writing, Kindergarten-Grade 1. ELLs in Kindergarten and Grade 1 may be at the beginning, intermediate,
advanced, or advanced high stage of English language acquisition in writing. The following proficiency level
descriptors for writing are sufficient to describe the overall English language proficiency levels of ELLs in this
language domain in order to linguistically accommodate their instruction and should take into account developmental
stages of emergent writers.
(A) Beginning. Beginning ELLs have little or no ability to use the English language to build foundational writing
skills. These students:
(i) are unable to use English to explain self-generated writing such as stories they have created or other personal
expressions, including emergent forms of writing (pictures, letter-like forms, mock words, scribbling, etc.);

Activity/Lesson: (description)
Lets refer to our objective, we will compose a target shape using two or more shapes. Alright, so now I
am going to model for your expectations when completing your activity. While, I am up here modeling
you are to sit quietly, not ask any questions, keep your eyes and ears focused on what I am doing and
saying. Im going to go through the thinking process that you should go through while completing the
activity. Im going to begin now
I (Teacher) DO
The first card I notice says, build a hexagon using six triangles, the hexagon is the target shape that was
mentioned in the objective. Let me thinktriangleshmm, I know that a triangle has three sides from
what Ive already learned, but first Im look around the room for the anchor chart that I know is posted
that has the shapes and sides on it. Oh, there it is let me readokay I see the squaretheres the
triangle. Yep, it has three sides. So, these little green shapes are the triangles because they are the only
shapes with three sides. Now, lets the read the card again, build a hexagon using six triangles. Alright,
so I have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 triangles now I need to put them together to make them into a hexagon. OH, I
forgot what a hexagon was let me look for the that anchor chart again because it was made to help me
in situations like these. hexagons have 6 sides. Alright, so lets build the hexagon! Okay, now I have
my hexagon. Im going to trace it and write to the side which shapes I used and which shape I made.
Hmm, the next card I do I want to challenge myself! This card looks interesting, build a hexagon using: 3
triangles, 5 trapezoids, and 1 hexagon. I need to gather my shapes, so I am going to make sure that I
take 3 triangles, 5 trapezoids, and 1 hexagon out of my bag. If I get confused I know that I have an
anchor chart around me to help me. So, first I have to figure out how I am going to compose a hexagon
using these shapes. Well, I am going to go ahead and place my hexagon in front of me, then I am going
to place a triangle right here, then I am going to place a trapezoid on top, now I am going to place
another trapezoid just under. Again, I am just experimenting at this point I may have to change
something around. But, let me see if I am going in the right direction I am going to place this trapezoid
down here. I think I want to place a triangle right here, and a hexagon right here. It looks like I can fit
my last triangle right here between my second triangle and my trapezoid. And I see one place open for
my last trapezoid. Its all filled up, I have composed a solid hexagon shape. Let me count my sides and
vertices.I have all six sides and all six vertices.

Alright, now that youve seen what I did. Are there any questions that you may need answered about
what I did?

Co-Teaching Strategy
Which co-teaching approach will you use to maximize student achievement?
One teach, one observe
I will teach the lesson, while the MT observes my lesson to give feedback.
Alright, so lets do two examples together. The card says build a triangle using a triangle and a
trapezoid. What are we going to do to find out which one of these shapes is a trapezoid? Use the anchor
chart. Very good, use your anchor chart so that you can be sure you are using the correct shape to
make your new shapes. Alright, so what should we do with our two shapes that we are going to use to
make a triangle? Put them together so that we are making the target shape. Excellent, I like how you
used the words target shape, that lets me know we are focusing on our objective which is to compose a
target shape using two or more shapes. Lets put them togetherwe have our triangle. Its a bigger
triangle. We took a small triangle and a small trapezoid and composed a larger triangle. So, were going
to write it now on our paper, what shapes did we use? One triangle and one trapezoid. Great, and we
can answer that by looking back at our activity card. What was the target shape? A triangle. Yes, and
we can answer that question also by referring to our activity card, if we are not sure. Are there any
questions about the activity?
For our second example together, I am going to select this card, it reads build a hexagon using: 2
rhombuses and 2 triangles. Again, what are we going to use to make double sure that we are going to
select a rhombus? The anchor chart. Yes, yes! This makes me happy, your anchor chart is there to help
you succeed make sure you use it! So, now we have our two rhombuses and two triangles, which two
shapes do we want to put together first? One rhombus and one triangle. Okay, great thinking. Which
shape are we trying to compose? A hexagon. Yes, I want to point something out, if you look at the two
shapes that we just joined together, you can see that there are three sides, which must mean what? If
we connect the other rhombus and triangle together to the two that we just put together we should end
up with 6 total sides and 6 total vertices. Fantastic! Someone has their thinking cap on. That connection
that _______ just made is the kind of thinking and kind of connections that I hope we are all using.
Alright, lets count our sides and vertices now that we have connected them to check if ________s
prediction is correct? .we have six sides and six vertices. Did we compose our target shape? Yes!
Lets really quick review our agenda again to see if we are meeting our goals.
Based on what you know what we have done this far, where are we now? Composing shapes activity,
we do. Yes, thank you for following along, we have reviewed 2D shapes, watched our video, began our
activity I have shown you examples through modeling, we have completed examples together, now you
are going to complete the activity.
So, here is what we are going to do. Every table has a set of cards, you are going to work out two
problems with your shoulder partner, after you have created the shapes we are going to record them on
the notebook paper provided. After, you and your partner are done raise your hand so that I can come
over to you and check your work, then you are going to work individually to complete two more of these
cards on your own. The volume should not get over a 1 or whisper volume in here. Im going to be
walking around the classroom. You may begin!

Students will work with their shoulder partner on a task card and then switch to independent on task
cards using manipulatives and recording their data. I will be walking around the classroom to check
students for understanding and clarify and misconceptions the students may have using academic
feedback and questions them to get answer their own questions.

I will then refer to the objective, the product, and the agenda to make sure we didnt miss any part of what was to be
completed and learned. I will also summarize the lesson by explain what it is we learned today, we are now able to
build and manipulate shapes to reach a target shape.
