Modelled/Explicit Teaching: MYSTERY BAG The teacher places a number of objects into a large bag or box, eg a shell, a ball, a shoe, a pencil. A student reaches into the bag and feels an object and then describes the shape without actually naming the object. Other students try to guess the object.
Modelled/Explicit Teaching: WHAT AM I? A student describes at least three attributes of an object to the rest of the class and the other students try to guess which object is being described.
DRAW A SHAPE Students are given a piece of paper which they mark into four sections. Each section can have a picture showing a shape to look for, eg box shapes, ball shapes, cone shapes, curly shapes. Students find objects that match the shapes and draw them in the appropriate section. Whole Class Reflection/Evaluation: Resources: Whole Class Reflection/Evaluation: Resources:
