A lesson that involves using basic 2D shapes to create Olympic pictures. This activity is differentiated by outcome so is easily suited to a range of abilities, but is most suitable for Year2-Year4 pupils to introduce/reinforce 2D shape knowledge.
Pupils will be required to identify basic 2D shapes and recognise the properties of these. It can be used at any point, as an introduction to 2D shapes, to reinforce knowledge or as a useful assessment activity.
This lesson is designed to be fairly flexible and can be adapted quite easily for independent or paired work, or even group work on a larger scale. Work produced can also be recorded in books, on a separate worksheet or makes a very eye-catching class display. Also great as an SEN activity as the work created and images used can be very high contrast and bold and this is an enjoyable, creative, shape activity that encourages a lot of shape vocabulary and discussion.
The lesson file includes;
Introduction - with advice and instructions for carrying out the activity, based on my experience of this lesson.
Powerpoint – the powerpoint presentation with examples of more complex Olympic shape pictures and suggestions for sports to recreate. Step-by-step instructions for the pupil. A slide for recording information if the pupil is doing this in their books rather than using the worksheet provided. And an extension activity.
Worksheet – A worksheet that can be stuck in books or used as part of a class display.
Template resource sheet – pupils need access to accurately drawn shapes. This sheet has images to print and cut-out for templates. If you already have shape templates to draw around they can be used.
If different shapes are needed or different sizes pupils will have to create their own template for these.
A bonus set of images for an Olympic display that can be enlarged as needed and printed.
