TEKS • §113.3. Social Studies, Grade 1. • (b) Knowledge and skills. • (13) Citizenship. The student understands important customs, symbols, and celebrations that represent American beliefs and principles and contribute to our national identity. The student is expected to: • (A) explain selected national and state patriotic symbols such as the U.S. and Texas flags, the Liberty Bell, and the Alamo; • (B) recite and explain the meaning of the Pledge of Allegiance and the Pledge to the Texas Flag; • (C) use voting as a way of making choices and decisions; and • (D) explain how selected customs, symbols, and celebrations reflect an American love of individualism, inventiveness, and freedom.
Who are my learners & their characteristics? • I will be teaching first graders • They will be learning about our great state of Texas, the Texas flag, the American Flag, liberty bell, and the bald eagle • My first grade students will be able to learn and recite the United States Pledge of Allegiance, as well as the Texas Pledge of Allegiance.
Bloom’s Taxonomy: The Objectives • The students will use the following objectives to learn our national and state symbols: -Knowledge: arrange, define, duplicate, label, list, memorize, name, order, recognize, relate, recall, repeat, reproduce state. -Synthesis: arrange, assemble, collect, compose, construct, create, design, develop, formulate, manage, organize, plan, prepare, propose, set up, write.
How will this be taught? • The students will be broken up into groups where they will research the American and Texas symbols on the internet, then the groups will have a choice to put a 1-2 page paper together or present a power point slide show together.
What else you ask … • The students will also create a Texas or American symbol of their choice out of model magic, then they will paint their symbol using the correct colors to represent the symbol they have chosen.
How will I evaluate the lessons? • I will evaluate my students on how well they have worked together as well as how they present their assignment. • I will also give them an oral or written quiz on the different Texas and American symbols that we have studied in the unit.
