Social Studies: Erika Barash and Michael Smith

Lesson Plan  Grade: 5 th Grade  Class Size: 25 students – 3 students have ADHD and 5 others have ADD. The makeup - 10 Caucasian, 7 African American, 5 Hispanic, 3 Asian.  Allocated Time: 1 hour (5-10 minutes extra if needed)

Topic: Climate and Vegetation Regions  Spend 5 minutes discovering what students know about climate and vegetation regions of the United States. (Previous Knowledge)  Use a map (on PowerPoint) to split the U.S. into six main areas so that it is easier for students.

Topic: Climate and Vegetation Regions  Work with students to see what areas they know. (start with our area North East) Work your way down the East coast and so on.  An easier way to do this is to ask who has visited certain places before.  Use a PowerPoint and have a handout of the U.S. so students can write or draw what type of climate regions are in the U.S.

Topic: Climate and Vegetation Regions  Make a chart with the students to label different areas on the map, students can color (which will increase motivation)  Establish a list of key terms for the students and make sure that all of the students have them written down as well as the definitions.  From this you can use a handout that focuses on those key terms and have students work in pairs to figure out the answers together.

Transition (for second lesson plan)  After the handout is discussed, the teacher should wrap that lesson up, then discuss how people live and work in many different environments. (End of first lesson)  These two lessons can occur one day or the next day in social studies.

Where People Live and Work  Try to gain prior knowledge of students.  Establish more key terms for students to learn about where people live and work. (the different areas)  Relate to the students and help them figure out where their parents work and in what kind of area they live.

Suggestions  ANY IDEAS FOR WHAT OTHER ACTIVITIES I COULD HAVE MY CLASS DO?  -Maybe a poster ?...  -List types of jobs in certain areas?...  -List why different areas are needed…  -Any ideas would be great
