• LP’s a are not written for teachers to read to the class; but to structure the lesson and to help with the flow of the class

• Research indicates that all students benefit from, and appreciate well-structured lessons.

• LP’s determine the curriculum; that is, what the children will learn

• LP’s determine what the students already know

• LP’s determine at least one way to assist the students in learning the new curriculum

• LP’s determine at least one way to evaluate the learning outcomes of the students.

• The objectives of the lesson do not specify what to observe

• The lesson assessment is disconnected from the objectives

• The prerequisites are not specified or are inconsistent with what is actually required to succeed with the lesson

• The materials specified in the lesson are extraneous

• The instruction in which the teacher will engage is not efficient

• The student activities described in the lesson plan do not contribute to the achievement of the objectives

purpose is to communicate is the focal point of a lesson plan describes an intended learning

outcome determines the criteria for any

assessment are evidences of learning aligned with the aims of education Develops critical and creative

thinking

Cognitive – knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, Evaluation

Affective – Receiving, Responding, Valuing, Organization, Characterization,

Psychomotor – Reflex movement, perceptual abilities, physical abilities, skilled movements, nondiscursive communication

S – specific M – measurable A – Attainable R – Result Oriented T – Time bounded

The student will demonstrate metric measurement of length.

Given a metric ruler, the students will measure the length of common linear objects to the nearest millimeter.

The students will solve addition problems with 80% accuracy.

Given two numbers not written in equation form, the students will place the numbers in equation form and add them together

Learning is an active process The more senses involve in learning, the

better A non- threatening atmosphere

enhances learning Learning is meaningful when it is

connected to students Good teaching goes beyond recall of

info. Integrated teaching approach is

effective

Advantages:Are easy to obtainCan convey a number of informationEffective than oral or written statements reusable

Disadvantages:Choosing is a problemHandling needs much careDifficulty in choosing the size, how it should

be mounted, etc.

Pictures are not outdated Small pictures are difficult to see Pictures should be organized Should be easily seen, attractive

and accurate Can be mounted on hard paper

or laminated for protection

a quiz, a journal entry, a pair work activity, an essay, a test, a class discussion, or an oral question/answer activity

It should match with the objectives of the lesson

continues to be an essential component of good teaching

Measure teacher’s effectiveness involves knowledge of the various uses,

characteristics, techniques and handling the learner’s response.

It takes many years of classroom experience, professional reading, and self-evaluation for a teacher to be a proficient questioner

Questions should be asked in a natural and well-modulated voice.

A teacher should ask the question first, and then wait for the class to think about it before calling on anybody to answer the question.

A sufficient number of questions should be asked to stimulate learners to activity.

A teacher should refrain from repeating questions

Questions should be evenly distributed so that the majority of the pupils can take part in the discussion

A teacher should avoid resorting to any mechanical system of fielding questions to the class, such as by alphabetical order, or row by row

A teacher should ask questions that are really interesting and thought-provoking

Category of Questions

Convergent questions have only one correct answer, and test rote knowledge of concrete facts.

Examples of these questions include multiple choice, definitions, true/false, fill in the blank and calculations where there is only one correct answer.

Divergent questions have no single correct answer, and are more analytical,

testing the students’ ability to synthesize information,

offer educated opinions or create hypotheses based on their knowledge.

These types of questions are always open-ended, allowing the students to express themselves as they demonstrate their ability to reason in the subject.
