a. Identifies and produces rhyming words in response to an oral prompt and distinguishes rhyming and non-rhyming words.

 

3. Specific Objective:

The students in this kindergarten class will pick out words that rhyme by selecting the pictures that represent the words with an accuracy of 80%.

 

4. Evaluation

      I will collect the papers to see how well the students understood the lesson by checking to see if they were able to come up with rhyming words from the –an word family.

 

5. Materials

·         Alphabet cards

·         Sentence strip chart

·         Rhyming Bingo

 

      6. Procedures

a.       As my opener I will ask the students if they know what a rhyming word is.

b.       This lesson will tie to the previous learning of the –at word family.

c.       I) I will show the students the alphabet card for the letter “a” and ask then what sound it makes, then I will so then the alphabet card for the letter “n” and what sound it makes.

II) Once the students have told me what sounds the letters “a” and “n” and they will   blend the sounds together to get the word “an”.

III) After getting the word “an” I will show the students an alphabet card for the first letter of a word in the –an word family. I will ask the students what sound the    letter being shown to them makes and to blend it with “an” to get a new word.

IV) After showing the students how to blend the beginning letter with “an” I will have them do the blending with the different beginning letters of the –an word family words.

V) After the blending activity the students will play rhyming bingo so that I can assess what they learned from the lesson.

d.       To conclude the lesson I will ask the students to tell me some of the words that are in the –an word family.

e.       Upon completing the lesson the students will line up and get ready to go to lunch.

f.        The students who are having difficulty with this lesson I will give them one-on-one attention to help them get a better understanding of rhyming and being able to hear the rhyming sounds.

      9. Documentation

            The students’ academic achievement will be tracked through observation and once they are able to do a certain task successfully that task will be marked off on the checklist that there is for kindergarten students.

 

      10. Reflection

            I was really nervous about teaching a lesson on rhyming because I did not know how well it would go with kindergarteners. Once I got into the lesson the nerves when away because the students were very receptive to the lesson and eager to participate. Overall I would have to say that this lesson went really good. The students really enjoyed that they got to interact with the lesson and they had a lot of fun with rhyming bingo. I would definitely do this lesson again.
