1. Tuesday- Oddity Tasks
A- Total of 21 students, 11 girls and 10 boys. All of which speak English as their primary language
and none of them have any disabilities.
S- Students will receive a set of picture cards. Pull out a puppet and then explain to the children
that he/she only likes things whose names begin with "m". Tell the children to hold up their
picture cards if the item in the picture begins with "m", and then have them make the initial
sound. Example:
Puppet: I like marshmallows.
Child: (holds up the mittens picture) M-m-mittens.
Puppet: I see mittens. Mittens. M-m-mittens, /m/, just like mmmmmarshmallows.
Stand, Sit, and Turn Around is a fun activity to include children and their names. Say a sound,
such as /b/. Have each student whose names begin with that sound must bounce like bunnies,
or other movement that starts with the same sound as their name. (Continue until all students
have done something). Students will use these activities to master oddity tasks by the end of the
week with 80% accuracy.
S- Using different activities to teach children is a better way to get positive results rather than
just using a worksheet every day. I have created a twitter page full of links to more tasks to help
parents with their children at home. The QR will send students to a song that I would like for
them to use to learn all of their sounds.
U- Stand, Sit, and Turn Around, the class puppet activity, the qr (that leads to a song), and
twitter (for the parents).
R- I will expect full participation from all of the students during the oddity task activities I have
prepared. If they complete all tasks they will receive a sticker for their folder.
E- My assessment for today will be based off of observation of my students’ participation, and
whether they sit or stand during the activity, and if they understand the puppet activity. I will
ask the parents to communicate with me about their at home work.
