Introduction: (2 min)
Bring children to the carpet by table color after snack
Open up goods and services flip chart
Activate prior knowledge:
o T: “Who can raise a quiet hand and tell me what they think a good is”
o Allow children to use the picture on the board and brainstorm ideas on what the
word good may be.
Watch Brain pop jr on goods and services
Procedures: (Mini Lesson – 15 min)
Flipchart page
Explain what a good is
o T: “ Goods are things that are made or grown”
o T: “Goods can be made in a factory or grown on a farm. Goods are something that
you can buy at the store.
TWS Lesson Plan Reflections –Example 2
Flipchart page 4:
o Brainstorm some goods you find around your house
First the teacher will name some examples and next the children will get
to come up with ideas.
Flipchart page 5:
o T: “ This week we have been talking about the farm”
Flipchart page 6”
o T: “ Who can raise a quiet hand and tell me some goods that are grown on a farm”
After brainstorming teaching will quiz students by name off some items. The students will give a
thumb up if the item is a good and a thumb down if it is not a good.
Open up Reading workshop center flipchart ( 15 min each work station)
Teacher will explain centers by table color
o Blue – Students will look through magazines to find pictures of goods and glue
them on a white sheet of paper.
o Yellow – WTW sort
o Red – Reading table. Students will pick a spot in the room to read quietly to
themselves.
o Chaney – Listening center - Farm goods book
o Computers – Brian pop online activity about goods.
Dismiss students into centers by center group.
Closure: (time estimate)
Students will share their white paper where they glued down pictures of ‘goods’. The class will
give a thumb up if everything on the student’s paper is a good and a thumb down if they see
something glued on that is not a good.
Line students up for related arts by the first letter of their name.
6. Differentiation of Instruction Accommodations:’’
Student X will need extra assistance and guidance in work centers.
Student W may leave carpet in the middle of the lesson to sit in his own space if having
problems controlling his body on the carpet.

7. Analysis of Student Learning - to be completed AFTER lesson is
taught (refer to specific questions noted on Lesson Plan Components)
This was the first time the students were exposed to goods and services so mastery was
not met on this lesson. Student H and T did not cut or glue anything on their paper from the
magazines. These students stayed inside during WIT time to cut goods out of the magazine to
glue on their paper. The dinosaur group did not have a chance to sort their words their way, so
they will complete that activity in math centers today. Student G finished his 6th
workshop on
Waterford, and student I read a C level book in the independent reading center. Student I will
need to be retested to find out his/her new reading level. I allowed him/her to change out the fox
read books to level C for a more challenging read at home. All of the students besides students
G, O, M, and R were able to complete the goods sort on the brain pop computer activity. Review
goods again tomorrow before moving on to services.
8. Reflection – to be completed AFTER lesson is taught (refer to specific
questions noted on Lesson Plan Components)
At the beginning of this lesson, when I asked the essential question, “what is a good”, many
of the students thought a good was “healthy food, because healthy food was good for you.” I had
TWS Lesson Plan Reflections –Example 2
to explain to the students that sometimes words have two different meanings. We brainstormed
some more ideas on words that have two different meanings. The children really enjoyed the
brain pop video so I want to incorporate more of those into our classroom lessons. The center
rotation went well. I saw AA, letters, and D for reading workshop. In reading workshop groups
we worked on reading with expression and exclamation marks. During the conclusion of the
lesson the students were able to brainstorm food and objects as goods after they cut pictures out
of magazines. Something I would change in this lesson would be the listening center. The
children need to have an objective to go along with the center instead of just listening to a book.
Tomorrow they will have a self-reflection sheet to complete on the story that they listen to. The
lesson incorporated all learning styles and the children were actively engaged the whole time.
During the second center rotation I told the children to ‘freeze and squeeze, and I had to remind
them that during center time we use our inside voices while talking with the friends in their
group. We practiced using inside voices and then the students got back to work on their centers. I
learned that by modeling what an outside voice sounds like and what an inside voice sounds like,
children were able to realize how loudly they were talking. After this demonstration, they
became mindful of their voice level. Students even reminded their friends in their group about
keeping an inside voice while in centers. I will continue to model behavior the wrong, and then
the right way, as a teaching strategy.

Introduction: (3 min)
Bring children to the carpet after snack by table color.
Access prior knowledge by reviewing what a ‘good’ means.
T: “Who can raise a quiet hand and tell me what we learned about goods
yesterday?”
Review flipchart made as a class yesterday about what a good is and examples of
goods on a farm.
Review definition of a good. Put into their own words.
Procedures: (Mini lesson = 15 min)
Introduce services
Flipchart page 8:
o T: “Today we are going to talk about services. Who can raise their hand
and tell me what they think a service is?”
TWS Lesson Plan Reflections –Example 2
o T: “A service is work that someone does for someone else. When you buy
a service you hire people to do a job. You are not buying something you
can touch and hold like the goods we learned about yesterday.”
o Give examples of services
Flipchart page 9:
o Let children brainstorm examples of services and what goods these
services supply.
o Talk about the difference between goods and services.
Work stations ( 15 min each center )
o Blue table – Write the room.
Show flipchart with example worksheet.
Children will find the pictures in the room and write the word
under ‘good’ or ‘service’.

7. Analysis of Student Learning - to be completed AFTER lesson is
taught (refer to specific questions noted on Lesson Plan Components)
All of the students were able to complete objective three (what they want to be when they
grow up). Students H, M, O, and J did not master objective one (write the room). These students
needed more time or more explanation to complete this objective. Objective two seemed to be
fairly easy for all the students, but they enjoyed using the IPads to hear the sound and match the
service. To increase student learning I plan on pulling a small group to finish the write the room
activity for the students above who did not have time to finish or did not understand instructions.
The bus group (higher level learner) finished the write the room activity fairly quickly and were
able to visit their “I’m done” folders. Each of them were able to complete one sheet from their
folders. Student J and W were off task during centers and needed to be reminded to stay on task.
Student X was having a sad day and kept on telling me that he “missed his mom.” This student
TWS Lesson Plan Reflections –Example 2
was pulled by the school physiologist during the lesson. To extend on this lesson I plan on
integrating more community service books and writing activities into the classroom.
8. Reflection – to be completed AFTER lesson is taught (refer to specific
questions noted on Lesson Plan Components)
Students got to complete 4 out of 5 work stations today. One work station was extended
because the ant group needed a little extra time to sort their words their way. Something I think
that needs to be worked on as a class is a smoother transition in between centers. The children
knew what center they were supposed to be at, but there was a noisy clean up along with some
minor confusion. At the end of work stations, instead of doing the goods and services sort, the
children got to come up and share their work from Mrs. Chaney’s center. The students got to
share what they wanted to be when they got older. The students really enjoyed hearing what
profession their friend wanted to be, and all students were willing to share their work. If I taught
this lesson again I would keep all of the work stations the same. The students really enjoyed
working with the QR codes and the IPads. Something I learned from teaching this lesson was
that the students loved being able to get up and share their work with the class. I would like to
have students stand up and brag about their work more often.

Introduction: (2 min)
Bring children to the carpet by table color after snack
TWS Lesson Plan Reflections –Example 2
Review: What is the difference between goods and services?
Show a picture of a factory (attached to lesson plan) and ask the students. “What is this
and what kinds of things are made in these.”
Procedures: (10 min Mini Lesson)
Read factory poster with definition. ( see lesson plan attachment)
Fill out flipchart:
o What are some items that are made in a factory instead of grown on a farm?
o Students will brainstorm ideas while teacher fills out flipchart.
Talk about what kinds of stores in our area we shop at that have goods made in factories
and on the farm.
Centers:
Blue Table: Write the room: Students will go around the room and find pictures of a
good and write the word under farm goods, or factory goods. (See bottom of lesson plan
for worksheet example)
Red Table: Factory and Farm Sort. The students will have a laminated mat that will be
labeled ‘Farm and Factory”. The students will also have pictures. They are to sort the
pictures into farm or factory goods. ( See bottom of lesson plan)
Yellow Table: Children will sort Words Their Way for the week
Chaney: Listening Center: Students will scan QR codes with IPad and it will take them
to a listening story to follow along with.
Computers: Waterford
Dismiss students to word stations by group

7. Analysis of Student Learning - to be completed AFTER lesson is
taught (refer to specific questions noted on Lesson Plan Components)
Students B, F, O and Q were pulled into a reading workshop today. They read a B level
book and we worked on reading comprehension. We had a volunteer in our classroom today that
pulled out student X and P to work on letter sounds and site words. These two students need a
little extra work with their letters. Student R got to stand on the ‘brag stool’ today and tell his/
her classmates that they will be starting their first grade words in their flip book. Students H, and
T were still confused about what items were made in a factory and during centers struggled with
the sorting and writing the room. The other students were able to sort the farm and factory
goods. I wrote in my anecdotal notes that the students do not know how to write on lined paper
very well. A lot of them do not use the lines at all when writing and this is something that needs
to be addressed during writing workshop. The lower performing students saw a lot of one on one
time today. We had a volunteer, my CT, our assistant, and me pulling small groups. Today’s
reading workshop center was a success.
TWS Lesson Plan Reflections –Example 2
8. Reflection – to be completed AFTER lesson is taught (refer to specific
questions noted on Lesson Plan Components)
Work stations transitions went really well during this lesson. When students heard the
bell, they all cleaned up quietly, push in their chairs and waited quietly to rotate. We were able to
go to all work stations today because of the smooth transition. In centers I incorporated all
learning styles. The children got to move around, have visual aids, go to a listening center, draw
and work in groups. I think the children were sitting a little too long on the carpet during the mini
lesson because the kids starting talking and moving around a lot more at the end of the lesson.
Next time I will make sure to shorten the mini lesson just a little bit so the children do not have
to sit on the carpet as long.
During this lesson I had two children who were not getting along in centers. I had to
remind them twice during center time to ‘use kind words’ and ‘play nice with friends’. After the
third time I made them clean up centers and go sit on the reading carpet to talk about how they
could be better friends and classmates to one another. They drew up a plan of how they were
going to work better tomorrow with each other in centers. At the end of centers they stood up
and talked to the other students in the class about why it was important to use kind words to their
friends and how they plan to work as a team tomorrow. I think this was a more efficient way of
just reminding them to be a good friend. After two warnings I gave them a consequence to their
actions. I learned that these two students learned a lot about being a good friend by making their
own action plan to work better together.

Relevancy:
Students need to know that you use money to buy goods and services and the difference between
the things that you need and the things that you want. If children learn to make choices on their
own when they are younger, then decision making will be less difficult to them as they become
adults.

Introduction: (2 min)
Bring children to the carpet by table color.
Review with children the difference between a want and a need.
o “Who can raise a quiet hand and tell me what we talked about during reading
workshop today”
o “We talked about wants and needs. Even though you might REALLY want
something, sometimes you have to think inside your brain, hmm do I really NEED
this, or is it something that I just want.”
o “For example: I went to the grocery store last night to buy dinner. I only had 10
dollars. The food that I needed for dinner was 10 dollars but I saw a toy that I
REALLY wanted. Do you think that I should spend my money on the shoes or the
food? Turn and talk to your partner about it.”
o “I should buy the food. My dinner a good that I NEED and the toy is just a good
that I want.”
Procedures: (12 minute mini lesson)
Discuss goods you buy at the grocery store with money.
o “Today in math we are going to talk about making decisions with our money and
that sometimes we can’t always get everything we want.
TWS Lesson Plan Reflections –Example 2
o “Turn and share with a friend some things that you buy at the store when you go
grocery shopping with someone you love”
“I’m going to read a book about a family that takes a trip to the grocery store. It’s called,
Something Good, by Robert Munsch”
Read story
Discuss book:
o “Tyya said that sometimes her dad doesn’t buy “good” food. What kind of things
did her dad buy”
o “Do you think the goods Tyya wanted to buy were wants or needs?
o “The problem is, we want a LOT of things. Look at how much Tyya wanted. There
are a lot of reasons people can have everything they want, but today we are going
to talk about one reason: Money.
o “Do you think Tyya’s father had enough money to buy all the ice cream and
chocolate bars AND all the other groceries his family needed?”
o “ Her father had to make choices on what to buy at the store based on what his
family NEEDED”
Allow children to turn and talk to friend: If they only have enough money to buy 3 things
from the grocery store, what would they buy.
o Daily math centers: ( centers for the week) o Blue – Sorting coins with trays
o Yellow – I pad – Money man
o Red – Patterns
Give each student a strip of construction paper to lay coins on for making
patterns. Have a container of coins to share and let them each make their
own pattern with the coins
o Computers – Waterford
o Chaney – Small group folders
Note:
o Teacher will pull guiding math groups to post test
o Center time is 8 minutes per center
o Children will rotate when they hear bell ring
o Children will rotate by groups on promethean board.
Closure: (2 min)
o Students will clean up centers – group leaders will put away centers
o Math center evaluations
o Children will line up for WIT
6. Differentiation of Instruction Accommodations:

o Students, H, P, N, Q and F are ‘high flyers’ and will work from the red baskets on the
center table. – They are working on addition and subtraction.
Extensions:
“Trouble with Money” Bernstein Bears.
Modifications:
Students R, C, and T are pulled during math for small group with team coach.
7. Analysis of Student Learning - to be completed AFTER lesson is
taught (refer to specific questions noted on Lesson Plan Components)
The objective of this lesson was met by all of the students in the class. I do not think the
students completely mastered the idea that certain things cost more money than others, but they
have not learned about the value of coins yet. The students did however, understand that
sometimes you have to make choices on the things you buy based on your wants and needs. The
students were participating in the discussion about our needs and wants, and what things were
important to spend our money on. I extended student learning to provide enrichment by talking
about our school’s fox funds. On Fridays the children have a choice between saving their money
to buy into the monthly PBIS party, and spending their money on the prize box. We had a
discussion about making the choice to save your money or spending it. Student G was asked to
leave the carpet in the middle of the lesson because he could not sit still and this affected the
amount of time he was in his centers. While in centers I recorded in my anecdotal notes that
students F, and K, did not know how to sort objects. These two students put all of the coins in the
center of the sorting trays. The bus group worked out of their folders during the sorting center.
TWS Lesson Plan Reflections –Example 2
They worked on addition and subtraction. These students are all ready for more challenging
addition problems. Student B did not understand patterns and needs to revisit this objective.
Students H, and I, needed extra assistants on Waterford lesson 11 on the computer. This lesson
was on symmetry, which we will be doing in everyday math next week. The objective of this mini
lesson was met and the students are ready to move forward from it.
8. Reflection – to be completed AFTER lesson is taught (refer to specific
questions noted on Lesson Plan Components)
The students were well engaged during this mini lesson so there were not a lot of
behavior problems while on the carpet. Student W removed himself/herself from the carpet to sit
in the special circle. This was huge progress because he recognized that he could not control his
body on the carpet and he removed himself before he became a distraction. During centers when
Student B was having problems creating a pattern, student L made an example pattern, and
taught student B what a pattern was. I found it interesting that we have been learning about
patterns all week and student B did not understand what a pattern was until a peer explained it. I
learned that sometimes children learn best from their own peers, because they can explain it in a
way that the child will understand. In the future I am going to incorporate that teaching style into
my lessons. Something I will do differently next time I teach this lesson is to give the children
more opportunity to talk about their own experience with making choices. Students at this age
level comprehend a lot more information when they can make real life connections to their
learning. Next time I will allow the students to guide more of the discussion. I will let them talk
more and have myself talk a little less. Today when the children came in we had the classroom
rearranged, so work centers were in new places in the classroom. I was very proud of how the
students adjusted to this change in their environment. One student said, “It’s like a scavenger
TWS Lesson Plan Reflections –Example 2
hunt to find your center, this is awesome!” Transition time took a little longer today but the
children adjusted accordingly.

“This flow map is labeled, beginning, middle and end”
“As I read this story, I want you to be thinking about what is happening in the beginning
middle and end of the story.”
“Let’s turn on those listening ears and put on our thinking caps”
Read – Sheep in the Shop by Nancy Shaw
Book discussion:
o “Why couldn’t the sheep buy all of the goods?”
o “ Turn and talk to a partner and name some goods and services you saw in this
book”
Fill out beginning middle and end flow chart
o Have students raise their hand to help retell the beginning middle and end of the
story.
o Talk about why retelling a story is important.
Work Centers:
o Blue – Goods and services sort
o Red – independent reading
o Yellow – sort words their way
o Listening – listen to a story and draw on the flow map the beginning middle and
ending of the book
o Computers – Waterford.
Note:
Teacher will pull guiding reading groups during work center time.
Center time is 15 minutes per center
Children will rotate when they hear bell ring
Children will rotate by groups on promethean board.
Closure: (5 min)
Students will clean up centers
The group leader will take the centers back to the shelf and put them away.
Students will share their beginning middle and end drawings from the listening center
with a friend. They will practice retelling the story with a friend.
6. Differentiation of Instruction Accommodations:
Sit with the ‘star’ center during goods and services sort. Need extra assistance while sorting.
TWS Lesson Plan Reflections –Example 2
Extensions:
Using story elements to retell a story
Modifications:
Student F will be pulled during workstations for literacy intervention.
Student I will be pulled during workstations for ESOL.
Student W will be pulled during workstations for literacy intervention
7. Analysis of Student Learning - to be completed AFTER lesson is
taught (refer to specific questions noted on Lesson Plan Components)
After the completion of the lesson along with center activities, I observed that students A,
C, F and G all need more assistants with picking out key details and retelling a story. Student A
drew characters in every box of the flow map and told me it because the character was in every
part of the story. Students E, H, T, D, and K have 100% mastery on this objective and are ready
to move on to the next story elements. These children should be put onto Waterford at the
computers while more group practice is done as a class to master how to retell a story. Student G
mastered his 5th
objective on Waterford and is ready for more information to be added onto his
account. The bus learning group completed words their way in 3 minutes, so next week their
words need to become more challenging. All students were able to name goods and services
from the book.
8. Reflection – to be completed AFTER lesson is taught (refer to specific
questions noted on Lesson Plan Components)
TWS Lesson Plan Reflections –Example 2
The mini lesson was engaging and the students were very active in participation. With
guidance students were able to help retell the story from beginning to end. Since this was the first
time the children were exposed to the beginning middle and ending flipchart. I think more
practice needs to done so the students can master this objective. During center rotation, one child
wet his pants and then a couple minutes later we had a child pull down his/her pants in the
listening center and show off his/her private parts. This caused for a minor distraction during this
time. After the children began wondering out of their work stations, I told them to ‘freeze and
squeeze.’ All of the children stopped what they were doing. I told the children who were at the
listening center to come to the carpet. I reminded the other students of their jobs in work centers
and told them that they needed to stay on task and get busy with their work. The child who wet
his/her pants went into the bathroom to change clothes and I asked our assistant to radio the
janitor for a clean-up. I knew that the issue that happened in the listening center was one that
needed to be reported to our assistant principle. I briefly talked to the students about the poor
choice that was made, while Mrs. Harm sent an email informing our assistant principle of the
situation. She came to the class and pulled aside the students involved and talked to them about
what happened. After school Mrs. Harms called the parents/ guardians of all the students that
were in the listening center to inform them of what happened. Because the students did not get
to all of their work stations today, they will need to pick back up on center rotations tomorrow to
finish the centers they did not complete. I think that I handled the situation well. The room
turned into chaos for only 30 seconds before the children were reminded to stay on task and get
back to work. After this situation, I am going to move the listening center back inside of the
room so I can keep an eye on that center while I am pulling reading groups. The student did not

know he/she wasn’t allowed to show his/her privates in school and thought everyone had the
same parts he/she did. It was a teachable moment for the children and for me.
