Lesson Plan

Name Francesca Scarmato

Lesson #, Lesson Title Lesson #1, Classifying and Naming Angles
Date and Day of the Week Monday, February 11, 2019
Grade Level and Class Grade 10; Geometry
Period and Length Period 3, 60 min.
Materials Needed Binder/Notebook, pen/pencils, graphing calculator (optional),
homework handout, exit ticket
Standards and Objectives
Standards:
 4.G.A.1 – Draw and identify lines and angles, and classify shapes by properties of their lines and
angles – draw points, lines, line segments, rays, angles (right, acute, obtuse), and perpendicular
and parallel lines. Identify these in two-dimensional figures.
 4.MD.C.5a – Geometric measurement: understand concepts of angle and measure angles –
recognize angles as geometric shapes that are formed wherever two rays share a common
endpoint, and understand concepts of angles measurement: an angle is measured with reference
to a circle with its center at the common endpoint of the rays, by considering the fraction of the
circular arc between the points where the two rays intersect the circle. An angle that turns
through 1/360 of a circle is called a “one-degree angle,” and can be used to measure angles.
Learning Objectives: Use concrete, specific and measurable (observable) learning objectives
for the lesson. What will the student be able to do?
Students will be able to construct, identify, and classify four different types of angles.
Central Focus: Students will be able to classify and identify angles.

Academic Language Demands:

 In order for the students to be intellectually engaged in this lesson they must understand math
terms, such as: line, line segment, point, ray, endpoint
 The specific terms students need to support learning of the objective(s) for this lesson are: types
of angles, endpoint, and ray.
 Students will need to be able to use all forms of language, such as: reading, writing, listening,
and speaking, in order to participate in learning tasks and demonstrate their learning for this
lesson.
