Lesson Plan for Nursery 1 - Cultural and Creative Arts - Drawing And Colouring Of A Triangle (green)

### Lesson Plan: Drawing and Colouring of a Triangle (Green) **Grade Level: Nursery 1** **Subject: Cultural and Creative Arts** **Duration: 30-40 minutes** **Topic: Drawing and Colouring of a Triangle (Green)** **Objectives:** 1. Students will identify and recognize the shape of a triangle. 2. Students will learn how to draw a triangle. 3. Students will practice coloring within the lines using a green color. **Materials:** - A3/A4 drawing sheets - Green crayons (or colored pencils) - Pencils - Erasers - Rulers - Large triangle shape cut-outs (for demonstration) - Visual aids showing different objects with triangle shapes **Lesson Plan Outline:** 1. **Introduction (5 minutes):** - Welcome and greet the students. - Show the students a large cut-out of a triangle. - Briefly talk about the shape of the triangle, pointing out its three sides and three corners. - Discuss where we can find triangle shapes in everyday life (e.g., slices of pizza, road signs). 2. **Demonstration (5 minutes):** - Demonstrate how to draw a triangle on the board: 1. Draw one straight horizontal line. 2. Draw two diagonal lines from the ends of the horizontal line that meet at a point above the middle of the horizontal line. - Show a pre-drawn triangle and color it using a green crayon. - Emphasize the importance of staying within the lines while coloring. 3. **Guided Practice (10 minutes):** - Hand out drawing sheets, pencils, and rulers to each student. - Guide the students step-by-step through the process of drawing their triangles: 1. First, draw a horizontal line. 2. Next, draw two diagonal lines meeting at a point above the middle of the horizontal line. - Walk around the classroom to assist students individually if needed. 4. **Independent Practice (10 minutes):** - Distribute green crayons to each student. - Instruct them to carefully color the triangle they have just drawn, staying within the lines. - Allow them to take their time and focus on neatness. 5. **Assessment/Conclusion (5 minutes):** - Once students are done, review their work individually. - Give positive feedback and gentle correction where necessary. - Display some of the students’ work around the classroom or on a bulletin board to celebrate their efforts. 6. **Wrap-up (5 minutes):** - Recap the lesson by asking a few questions: - What shape did we draw today? - How many sides does a triangle have? - What color did we use to color the triangle? - Thank the students for their participation and let them know they did a great job. **Extension Activities:** - For students who finish early or need more challenging tasks, provide additional sheets to draw and color more shapes (squares, circles) in different colors. - Incorporate a singsong about shapes or a storybook that features shapes prominently. **Evaluation:** - Observe students’ ability to draw the triangle correctly. - Assess whether students can color within the lines. - Provide verbal feedback and encouragement to foster a positive learning environment. By the end of the lesson, each student should have successfully drawn and colored a triangle, demonstrating their understanding of the shape and their ability to use coloring tools effectively.
