Lesson Planning

1. LESSON PLAN FORMAT
IN
MATHEMATICS

2. I. LEARNING
OBJECTIVE/S
Statement describing what a student is expected to learn
from the lesson. The learning objective provides a detailed
description of what the student will be able to do when the
instruction ends.
Cognitive – mental skills (knowledge)
Psychomotor – manual or physical skills (skills)
Affective – growth in feelings or emotional
areas
(attitude or self)

3. What are instructional learning objectives?
• Instructional objectives are specific, measurable,
short-term, observable student behaviors.
• Objectives define what you will have the students
do. These provide a link between expectations,
teaching and grading.

4. Tips for Writing Objectives
• Don't make writing objectives tedious, trivial, time-
consuming, or mechanical. Keep them simple,
unambiguous, and clearly focused as a guide to
learning.
• The purpose of objectives is not to restrict
spontaneity or constrain the vision of education in
the discipline; but to ensure that learning is focused
clearly enough that both students and teacher know
what is going on.

5. Tips for Writing Objectives
• Express them in terms of student performance,
behavior, and achievement, not teacher activity.
• Words or phrases such as know, think, appreciate,
learn, comprehend, remember, perceive,
understand, be aware of, be familiar with, have
knowledge of, grasp the significance, are NOT
measurable and should be avoided.
