Lesson slide examples for teachers

Three lessons, each for one class period. Each deck is real GenPPT output from the prompt shown with it. Check each fact and each number before you teach from a deck.

What to copy

  • Start with the goal in words that a student understands.
  • Open with a question, not with a definition.
  • Put one idea and few words on each slide.
  • End with a quick check and an exit ticket.

Why this deck works

  • The lesson starts with a question that a child can answer from experience: where does a puddle go?
  • Each stage has one slide, one picture, and one key word.
  • Slide 8 puts the four stages in one diagram. The students see the parts first and then the full cycle.
  • The quick check and the exit ticket show the teacher what each student learned.

Why this deck works

  • The lesson starts with a pizza problem before it gives the rule.
  • Each fraction is a picture and a number. A student can compare the number with the picture.
  • The steps go from an example, to practice together, to practice alone.
  • The prompt tells GenPPT that each fraction must be correct. Check each fraction before you teach.
