1) My lesson will be addressing the kindergarten math standard of identifying and describing shapes. In kindergarten, this consists of being able to identify various shapes such as squares, circles, rectangles, triangles, hexagons, cubes, cones, cylinders, and spheres. To do this we will first go over what each of the shapes looks like and we will also review how to describe where a shape is, above, below, next to, on top of etc. We will make use of Frank Lloyd Wright’s artwork in order to review shapes and location. We will discuss the artwork as a class and talk about the shapes that we can identify in the artwork.

They will tell their partner where certain shapes are located, what the shape looks like, and their size.
