ITEC Lesson Plan 4

Teacher: Kaylie Magelssen Subject Area: ELA Grade Level: 1

Necessary Links: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9S7DY2lgJlU
Common Core Standard or Wyoming State Standard: 1.RF.3.D & E D - Use
knowledge that every syllable must have a vowel sound to determine the number of
syllables in a printed word. E - Decode two-syllable words following basic
patterns by breaking the words into syllables.
Learning Target: Students will be able to correctly identify how many syllables a word
has and be able to decode words into their appropriate number of syllables.
Anticipatory Set: The teacher explains that the students will be learning about syllables
and asks the whole class if any of them know what a syllable is and how to figure out
how many a word has.
Model: Flipped Lesson
Guided Practice: The teacher would show the video linked above and then explain to
the students how they will complete their activity afterward. They will do several
example words as a whole group before moving on to their activity.
Independent Practice: After guided practice, students will then complete their follow-
up activity independently. This activity consists of cutting out a word list, breaking each
word into their separate parts, and pasting them in the cup that corresponds with the
amount of syllables in the word.
Check for Understanding: As the students complete their activity, the teacher will
walk around and ensure that the children understand how to find the appropriate number
of syllables.
Closure: After all students have completed their activity, the teacher will ask the
students again what a syllable is and how to find out how many a word has followed by
a short discussion.
Differentiation:
High: Have gifted students complete longer words with more syllables or work with
lower-level students.
Low: Have them work with higher-level students or work on shorter words that only
contain 1 or 2 syllables.
SPED: (Hearing impairment) Give a transcript for the video with written notes on how
to complete the activity. Offer deeper instruction on how to find the syllables based on
the vowels.
