Lesson Plan: What Comes Out of an Egg? • 1. "Guess What It Is" activity: show students a bag and ask them to guess what is inside. Give them the clue of; "It comes out of an egg." Write down all answers on chart paper. Give more clues until they guess turtle. Pull the a stuffed or toy turtle out and read the list of all of the animals that hatch from eggs. • 2. Go to computer lab. Ask students to log in, go to Kid Pix, then come and sit down behind one computer (for you to demonstrate on). Tell the students you are going to show them what their job is. • 3. Choose drawing tool (pencil), line size, and color • 4. Draw a broken egg (e.g. a u shape with zig zags at the top, a rainbow shape with zig zags at the bottom) • 5. Fill both parts with pattern or color using the paint tool (bucket).
6. Choose a stamp of a creature that hatches from an egg. Make the animal as big as you can (Ctrl and Shift keys held down) • 7. Choose letters from the A tool (letters that are clicked and dragged), to represent sounds heard in the creature's name (example: frog = fg). Use the same tool to choose letters to spell your name. • 8. Tell students to exceed expectations they need to do a background for their picture, and pick an unusual creature that hatches from an egg (not just the one you demonstrated with). • 9. Print and mark using Rubric • 10. Put in Portfolios
The students will be evaluated by the following grading rubric with a 16 point total.
