CAPS Page Number: [Attach the relevant screenshot from the CAPS document]
LTSM (Learning and Teaching Support Materials):
Interactive Whiteboard: To display shapes and their names.
Tablet or iPad with Educational Apps: For learners to engage with shapes through
interactive games.
Physical Shape Cutouts: To reinforce learning through touch and play.
Educational Video Clip: A short video showing real-life examples of shapes.
Worksheets: For learners to practice identifying and drawing shapes.
Lesson Aims: At the end of the lesson, the learner should be able to:
• Identify and name basic shapes (circle, square, triangle) (Remembering).
• Describe the characteristics of each shape (Understanding).
• Compare and contrast different shapes based on their properties (Analyzing).
• Create patterns using the basic shapes (Creating).
• Use a tablet app to match shapes to real-world objects (Applying).
Teaching Strategy: I will use direct instruction combined with interactive learning.
Direct instruction allows me to introduce and explain the shapes clearly, while
interactive learning through technology engages the learners actively and reinforces
understanding. This strategy ensures that the learners are not only passive
recipients of information but also actively involved in the learning process.
