Full lesson	Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle}

Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length	Details
1	Introduction	5 mins	Introduce the topic of shapes. Ask students what they know about shapes. Show examples using flashcards.
2	Shape Identification	10 mins	Present different 2D shapes and have students name them. Engage students in a discussion about the attributes of each shape.
3	Classifying Shapes	5 mins	Organize students into pairs. Provide worksheets for them to classify shapes according to the number of sides.
4	Shape Collage	7 mins	Instruct students to create a shape collage using cut-out shapes from coloured paper. They should label each shape they use.
5	Review and Feedback	3 mins	Gather students to discuss their collages. Highlight different shapes presented by students without requiring them to present individually.
6	Conclusion	0 mins	Summarize the lesson objectives. Inform students about the homework assignment.

Homework

• Students will create a drawing at home that includes at least five different shapes and label each one. Homework will be collected for assessment without individual presentations to the class.
