Lesson:
Introduction/Connections to Prior Knowledge (Before):
*We will begin by reviewing the concepts that were taught on Monday and Tuesday so that the
students will have a chance to refresh their memory before we jump into todays material.
*Diagram of a circle with the labeled center, radius, diameter, and circumference will be drawn
as the students review the information so that they will have the prior concepts handy for todays
lesson.
*Formulas for radius, diameter, circumference, and area will be added to the board as the
students review the information so that they will have the prior concepts handy for todays
practice.
Can anyone tell me what we have been learning this week so far?
o Answers: Radius, Diameter, how to solve for the Area of a circle, how to solve for the
Circumference of a circle

Reference arm example if necessary.
**Check for understanding here and reteach if necessary.
Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down/Raise Hand
Thumbs Up = I understand, Im with you.
Thumbs Down = I dont understand, Im not with you.
Raise Hand = I somewhat understand, but you lost me somewhere and I need you
to review for me please.
Raise Hand = I somewhat understand, but you lost me somewhere and I need you
to review for me please.
Okay, so now that we have reviewed all the basics, lets move on to todays material!
Today we are going to be learning about how to find the area and circumference of parts
of circles (instead of the whole circle).
Students will be evaluated based on their success in Khan Academy. The students are
grouped into one of 6 categories (Struggling, Needs Practice, Practiced, Level 1, Level 2,
Mastered) which shows me which students were able to correctly complete at least 3
consecutive problems and which students still need help/extra practice on the concept.
Accommodations/Differentiation strategies:
Accommodations:
Diagrams and hand gestures will be accepted as vocabulary explanations (multiple
intelligences).
Diagrams and formulas will be in clear view on the white board for reference throughout
the lesson.
Teacher will allow students to read the problem on their own and then she will read the
problem slowly and clearly out loud to the class.
Students will be able to come up to the board and solve the problem (show their thinking
if they cannot verbalize it).
Teacher will allow students to phone a friend (ask for help from another student who is
raising their hand) if they are struggling to answer a question.
Differentiations:
Teacher will encourage those students who have completed the practice and mastered the
concept to create their own Area and Circumference of a Circle problem. Students will
then pair and share and answer one anothers created problems.
Teacher will allow students who have completed the practice and mastered the concept to
continue working on Khan Academy, either mastering concepts that they have not yet
mastered or working ahead on tomorrows mini-lesson, Area and Circumference of
Circles Challenge.
Teacher will allow students who have completed the practice and mastered the concept to
be consultants and help reteach those students who are struggling with the concept.
ELL:
Inclusion Students: Task for those struggling:
For students who are struggling, I will have them go back and work on the concepts that
we learned on Monday (radius, diameter, circumference) and Tuesday (area of a circle) so that
they can have success in those concepts before attempting todays concept. I will scaffold their
learning as necessary (either clarifying information for them or working together on a problem
with them so that they know how to solve the problem).
Students with significant prior experience related to the content: Task for those that need
extending:
For those students who need extending, I will have them create their own sample Area
and Circumference of a Circle problem to share with the class. They can also work ahead to
tomorrows mini-lesson, Area and Circumference of Circles Challenge.
