(attitude).

•In a nut shell: How do we plan effective 'lessons' that support progression?

What to consider when you are planning a unit of work?

Bassett, Bowler and Newton (2013,p. 102) suggest that when planning a unit of work you consider:

1.What do you want pupils to be able to know, understand, be able to do?

2.What has been taught already?

3.How much time is available?

4.What resources are available?

5.How is the work assessed?

6.How does this work fit in with the work pupils are doing in other subjects?

7.What is to be taught later.
