Additional Learning Outcomes
Assessed QCC Standards:
Grade: 1
Guidance
A. Self Knowledge
2
Topic: Skills to

interacting with others. Demonstrate skills in managing conflicts with peers and
adults. Demonstrate group membership skills. Identify sources and effect of peer
pressure. Demonstrate appropriate behavior when peer pressures are contrary to

Procedures/Activities
Step:
1 Duration: 10 min.
Open with a demonstration of three different ways of speaking:
talking, body language, and sign language. Have children identify what each form
of “speaking” is. Have children demonstrate the different forms while the other
children guess which manner of “speaking” he or she is doing. Then talk about
the skills that are necessary before a person actually talks. Have children
demonstrate these skills (e.g., raising your hand before talking, waiting for
your turn to speak).
Step:
2 Duration: 20 min.
In the next class period, talk about correct speaking skills.
Tell the children how important it is to speak distinctly at an adequate voice
level, to stay on the subject, and not to interrupt. After the discussion show
students a tape recorder. Explain how it works and then record each child
reading a sentence. Play the tape back and let the children hear how their
voices sound.
Materials and Equipment
Tape recorder
Standards (Local and/or National)
Total Duration
40 min.
Technology Connection
Students will use a tape recorder to record themselves
speaking.
Assessment
Students' participation and answers to oral questions will be
evaluated.
Extension
Have students read a book to the tape recorder at the
beginning of the year. Periodically, have them read the same book again and
again throughout the year. Play the tape at the end of the year to see students'
growth and ability to communicate by oral reading.
Remediation
Have students play a game of charades to communicate with
motions.
Accommodation
Modification
For students with significant disabilities, what changes can
be made in instruction and teaching delivery to allow students to participate in
classroom instruction while working on IEP objectives and off grade level QCC
standards. Below are suggested modifications correlated to the procedures of
this lesson plan.
