Lesson Plans
Mathematics
Outcome(s)/Indicator(s):
SS 7.1:Demonstrate an understanding of circles including circumference and central angles.
a. Identify the characteristics of a circle.
b. Define and illustrate the relationship between the diameter and radius of a circle.
c. Generalize, from investigations, the relationship between the circumference and the diameter of a circle.
h. Define pi (π) and explain how it is related to circles.
l. Solve problems involving circles.
Below is the link to my lesson on Circumference. Within this lesson is discussion of diameter, radius, circumference and the symbol and value of Pi.

Outcome(s)/Indicator(s):
SS 7.4: Demonstrate an understanding of the Cartesian plane and ordered pairs with integral coordinates.
c. Identify the location of a point in any quadrant of a Cartesian plane using an ordered pair with integral coordinates.
Treaty Essential Learning #1: The Treaties
TEL: Identify the location of First Nations within the Numbered Treaties of Saskatchewan using ordered pairs
In this lesson students will practice their skills that they have developed to locate ordered pairs to locate the different First Nations on Saskatchewan's Treaty Map.

Outcome(s)/Indicator(s):
SS 7.4: Demonstrate an understanding of the Cartesian plane and ordered pairs with integral coordinates.
c. Identify the location of a point in any quadrant of a Cartesian plane using an ordered pair with integral coordinates.
d. Draw shapes and designs, using integral ordered pairs, in a Cartesian plane.
This lesson is an extension to the first lesson. In this lesson, students will use what they know about plotting points to create shapes.

English Language Arts
Outcome(s)/Indicator(s):
CC6.3: Use pragmatic (e.g., function and purpose), textual (e.g., paragraphs), syntactic (e.g., complete sentences with appropriate subordination and modification), semantic/lexical/morphological (e.g., figurative words), graphophonic (e.g., spelling strategies), and other cues (e.g., appropriate volume and intonation) to construct and to communicate meaning.
d. Semantic/Lexical/Morphological: Use words that are appropriate for audience, purpose, and context; avoid overused and misused words (e.g., “really good”); use reference tools to determine meaning of words; correctly spell common words; use Canadian spelling; use a variety of strategies and resources to learn the correct spelling of words.
CR7.3: Use pragmatic (e.g., author’s purpose and point of view), textual (e.g., how author organized text), syntactic (e.g., main and subordinate ideas), semantic/lexical/morphological (e.g., figurative language and specific word meanings by their context, common affixes, and allusions), graphophonic (e.g., word patterns), and other cues (e.g., non-verbal cues, headings, charts, and diagrams) to construct and confirm meaning when viewing, listening, and reading.
d. Semantic/Lexical/Morphological:Recognize and comprehend words that are appropriate for audience, purpose, and context and capture a particular aspect of intended meaning; use context, prefixes, suffixes, and root words, sounds, and reference tools to determine meaning of words;recognize words used figuratively and for imagery; identify and interpret figurative language and words with multiple meanings; understand and explain “shades of meaning” in related words (e.g., quietly, softly).
The following two lessons focus on prefixes and suffixes and organization of paragraphs. These two lessons were taught to a Grade 6/7 split class, so the outcomes and indicators might not exactly line up with each other.

Grade 7 Science
Outcome(s)/Indicator(s):
7.1: Distinguish between pure substances and mixtures (mechanical mixtures and solutions) using the particle model of matter.
g. State the four main ideas of the Particle Model of Matter.
h. Create models and/or physical representations that depict the nature of particles in solids, liquids and gases.
Below is a lesson that focuses on the particles in solids, liquids and gases in relation to the Particle Theory.

Arts Education
Outcome(s)/Indicator(s):
CP 6.11: Investigate and use various visual art forms, images, and art-making processes to express ideas about identity.
h. Demonstrate how symbols and other images can be used to convey meaning (e.g., create a visual statement about personal and/or cultural identity).
CP 7.10: Create visual art works that express ideas about the importance of place (e.g., relationship to the land, local geology, region, urban/rural landscapes, and environment).
e. Demonstrate awareness that artists are observant of their environment and often express ideas about the role and representation of place in their work.
f. Recognize that visual art is a means of personal exploration and communication, and appreciate the importance of visual expression.
In this lesson, students are able to experience creating a work of art as Michelangelo created the Sistine Chapel.
