Lesson Description:
Introduction This lesson is the Spanish component to the previous English lesson. Although this lesson is written in English, the teacher will be presenting the lesson in Spanish. Since this lesson is a part of
the English lesson, they share the same objects and target concepts. When students complete this lesson they will demonstrate their understanding of geometric shapes by drawing and naming them. Academically,
students are required (AZ standards) to know geometric shapes. This lesson is in accordance with the Arizona Academic Mathematics Standards: Standard 4: Geometry: Foundations (Grades 1-3). It is also included in
Yuma School District One Curriculum for second and third grades. Students will also be exposed to pictures related to an American and Mexican-American Thanksgiving. The visuals/pictures used in this lesson are the
same ones used in the presentation of the English lesson.
