Ask students which column the item belongs to (e.g., uniform for school, t-shirt for playtime, dress for a special occasion). - Fill in the columns based on student responses. 2. **Discuss**: - Explain why certain clothes are appropriate for specific occasions (e.g., uniforms are practical and represent the school, play clothes are comfortable and allow freedom of movement, special occasion clothes are often fancy to show respect or celebration). #### Guided Practice (15 minutes) 1. **Activity: Dress the Doll**: - Provide groups of students with doll cut-outs and sets of clothing items including ones for different occasions (pictures they can cut and paste). - Each group will 'dress' the doll for three different scenarios (School, Playtime, Special Occasions). - Walk around to assist and ask probing questions to reinforce learning (e.g., "Why did you choose the costume for the playtime?"). #### Independent Practice (10 minutes) 1. **Categorize and Create**: - Hand out worksheets with a mix of various clothing item images. - Students will cut out the pictures and paste them into the correct categories (School, Playtime, Special Occasions) on a chart paper. - After completing, students can color their charts. #### Assessment (5 minutes) 1. **Review and Reflect**: - Invite a few students to show their charts to the class and explain their choices. - Use questioning to review and reinforce what has been learned. #### Closing (5 minutes) 1. **Summarize**: - Recap the main points of the lesson. - Explain how understanding the appropriate clothes for different occasions help us fit in and shows respect for the event or activity. 2. **Homework**: - Encourage students to look through their own wardrobes at home and think about which clothes they wear for different activities they do every day and share their observations with the class in the next lesson. #### Extension Activity: - For students who finish early, they can draw their own clothing item for each category. They may also write a sentence about why they chose that item. #### Evaluation: - Observe students' participation and engagement during group and independent tasks. - Check the completed worksheets and charts for accuracy. - Take note of individual contributions during the review session. --- By the end of the lesson, students should have a clearer understanding of selecting appropriate clothes for school, playtime, and special occasions and how these choices can affect their daily activities.
