This graphics lesson plan aims to teach 10 second year students how to find the two focal points of an ellipse over 40 minutes. The teacher will recap the previous knowledge on ellipses using a PowerPoint presentation. Students will then work through textbook questions on finding focal points, first individually and then paired up. To conclude, a student will create a circle of learning where each student shares one thing they learned, before tidying up and exiting in an orderly fashion. The learning intentions are for students to visualize shape manipulation, apply geometric principles to problems, and reflect on their own learning.

GRAPHICS LESSON PLAN
Student Name: Grainne McLaughlin
ID: G00388874
Subject: Graphics Topic(s): Conic Section 2
Pupil Year Group: 2nd year No. of Pupils: 10 Lesson Number: 10 Length of lesson: 40 mins Date: 1/02/2023 Time of Lesson: 10.15
1. PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS AND OSERVATIONS
Previous Knowledge
Students have covered ellipses before and have a good grasp at drawing they faster and accurately. Students have started the topic conic section 2 this week and have the basic knowledge what it is about and how to achieve the steps involved. But the knowledge needs to be recapped over and over again for them to understand.
Teacher Observations
In the class there a couple of students most of the students are understanding the topic and what it is about. Students have been moved to different seat due to chatting and misbehaving in the class. Students need lot of motivation to work.
2. LESSON RATIONALE
Brief outline of WHY this content is the basis of the lesson, and why these teaching KEY methodologies were selected- a justification. *
The main aim of this lesson is to get students to achieve and know all the steps involved with RL finding the two focal points. As the students follow these questions the harder it gets and more challenging for them. Using the visualizer to present power point the students can see the steps involved and how it is drawn on a sheet of paper and getting the students state the steps after each other before following along. This shows me who knows the topic and who doesn’t understand it.
*KEY: RL=Reinforced Learning, NL=New Learning
