Lesson 1- Lesson 1- Literacy: Aim: What are some of the different types of Trains? Read-Aloud and KWL Chart

Literacy Lesson Activity 1: Read Freight Trains by Donald Crews Activity 2: Start our KWL Chart on Trains What do you... KNOW About Trains WONDER About Trains What did you... LEARN About Trains?

Our KWL Chart (7/25/2010) What We KNOW about trains What we WONDER about trains What we've LEARNED about trains Trains have wheels. Trains have a caboose. Trains ride on tracks. Trains can travel under the ground. Trains have cars. Trains have windows. How does the engine go? Who invented trains? Who made the subway? What are some things people do on a train? How do trains move?

Lesson 2- Lesson 2- Social Studies: Aim: How do trains affect our lives? Read-Aloud and Dramatic Play Backyard Trains Video

Lesson 3- Lesson 3- Mathematics: Aim: What are some of the different shapes that make trains? Train Collages with Different Shapes

Mathematics Lesson Activity 1: Group discussion of different shapes in trains, using pictures from our books about trains Activity 2: Create collages of trains using different cut-out shapes Ms. Flores' Train Collages

The Shapes We Used for our Trains Box CarsTank Cars Passenger Cars Locomotives Rectangles Semi Circles Squares Circles Rectangles Semi Circles Cut Rectangles Squares Rectangles Circles Semi Circles Octagons Rhombuses Rectangles Circles Squares

Lesson 4- Lesson 4- Science: Aim: How do trains move? Read-Aloud and Interactive Engagement Motivation: Moving Train VideoMoving Train Video

Science Lesson Activity 1: Go back to our book, Trains on the Tracks Activity 2: Use our bodies to make kid-trains Activity 3: Talk about how we moved our kid- trains

Our KWL Chart (7/28/2010) What We KNOW about trains What we WONDER about trains What we've LEARNED about trains Trains have wheels. Trains have a caboose. Trains ride on tracks. Trains can travel under the ground. Trains have cars. Trains have windows. How does the engine go? Who invented trains? Who made the subway? What are some things people do on a train? How do trains move? There are different types of cars on trains for sleeping and eating. Trains work because they have locomotives and an engine. The locomotive is at the front and it pulls the rail cars.
