3. Are you new to
lesson
planning?
Well, you are in
luck.
This guide will equip you
with the skills needed to
create an amazing lesson
plan
4. What is the topic?
What resources will I use?
1.
2.
Before we can plan a lesson we
need to gather the following
information:
A topic would be
what the lesson
is about
A resource is a tool used
to teach such as the
textbook or research
from the internet.
6. Let us look at an
example
Date: 15 October
2022
Subject: Natural
Science
Topic: Food
Groups
7. Examples of
Outcomes:
The learner would be
able to explain what a
food group is.
Name the different types
of food groups.
1.
2.
Teaching the learner
what a food group is.
What their names are.
1.
2.
Examples of
objectives
An objective is what you want to
teach to the learners.
What is an Objectives?
An outcome is what skill or
knowledge the learner would be
able to display at the end of the
lesson.
What is an Outcome?
8. Examples of
resources:
The resources would be: the text
book, chalkboard, pictures, a
projector, whiteboard and
presentation (when presenting a
lesson on a board.)
Examples of
assessment:
Examples of an
assessment would be a
worksheet, questionaire
or observation.
Assessment:
Resources:
An assessment is used to see
what the child has learned and
if the lesson was successfull or
not. Teachers assess learner in
order to show a learner's
performance over a short or
long period.
A resource is a tool that is used for
teaching. It should simplify
learning as well as make life easier
for the educator.
9. Homework:
Homework is allocated in order to assess
what was learned.
The reason why a teacher allocated
homework is to reinforce and assess what
was learned and serves as a guideline in order
to see if teaching was affective.
Learners must be able to apply skills outside
the classroom setting.
Examples of what can be goven as homework
can include: a worksheet, questionnaire or
pasting pictures of the objet learned in class.
10. The introduction
The introduction
doesn't need to be
long, but it has to be
interesting and
encourage
participation, because
it sets the tone for the
rest of the lesson.
It needs to draw from
learner's prior-
knowledge and build
on it.
Examples of
introductions
The introduction can start
with a question, engaging
picture or a video.
For Example, do you know
what food groups are? or
what food groups do you see
in the picture? etc.
Prior-knowledge or
learning, is the knowlege
learners already have.
11. Classroom
Activities
Examples of
classroom activities
When you're look at
the middle of the
lesson you need to
think about what
roles you as the
teacher will forfil and
then what will the
learner do.
What types of
activities would serve
the purpose of the
lesson?
Classroom activies can range
from groupwork to
individual work.
The type of task could range
from writing an essay to a
group discussion where
group members report back
to the rest of the class.
12. The conclusion Examples of the
conclusuion
The conclusion is
short and can be an
informal discussion to
check what learners
have learned and to
answer any questions
learners may have.
Peer-tutoring can
also be used, where
stronger learners may
explain a concept to
weaker learners.
An example of a conclusion
of a lession could be an
informal activity where you
recap the work learned.
Questions on flashcards may
work well in the conclusion.
Checking understanding and
observing responses of
learners would also work
well in the conclusion.
The conclusion can also be
used to write down allocated
homework.
13. Reflection Notes on reflection
The reflection is where
the teacher assess
his/her lesson to see if
the teaching method
was affective.
Was the worksheet on
the appropriate level?
Do I need to do a follow-
up lesson?
Was the concept
understood?
Did i give learners
enough oppotunities to
participate?
In this section there would
not be examples, but merely
advice:
Combine teaching strategies
such as visualization (using
visuals), Direct instruction
(teaching a concept) and
Inquire-based instruction
(using question to promote
particiption and get lerners
to think critically about a
concept).
