A lesson plan provides you with a general outline of your teaching goals, learning objectives, and means to accomplish them, and is by no means exhaustive. A productive lesson is not one in which everything goes exactly as planned, but one in which both students and instructor learn from each other.
Lesson content acts as the backbone of any learning experience. It gives the necessary information and guidance for learners to grasp new concepts, acquire skills, and broaden their understanding of the subject matter. Well-designed and engaging lesson content lays the foundation for effective teaching and learning.
A successful lesson plan addresses and integrates three key components: Learning Objectives Learning activities Assessment to check for student understanding A lesson plan provides you with a general outline of your teaching goals, learning objectives, and means to accomplish them, and is by no means exhaustive.

Flow Chart of Action Plan-
Pre-action Reflection-
I was a not tense but in fact relaxed before the lesson. I was curious about student’s response.
I was glad that I got a nice topic for the lesson where ample questions can be generated.
Lesson Procedure According to Constructivist Pedagogy-
Content Teacher Activity Student Activity
Plant Kingdom. Engage-
Teacher engages the class by showing a video. The video
comprises of Plant Kingdom, its importance to human
beings.
Teacher asks questions on the basis of video.
Statement of Aim-
“So students let us study the classification of plats
according to mode of nutrition.”
Teacher states that “the name of the lesson that we are
going to study today is ‘Classification of Plants’.”
The students watch the
video and came out with
various concepts involved
in the
Classification of
the plants on the
basis of various
characteristics.
Explore-
Teacher asks students to discuss in groups about the
features of a plant.
If you are in a library, how will you locate a novel
of your choice?
What peculiarity do you see in the plants?
What do you think about classification of Plants?
How can we classify plant kingdom?
Why classification is necessary?
State various plants that you have observed in the
video?
Do you notice anything different about these
plants?
What can you say about the height of mango tree?
Is it the same that as of the tulsi plant?
What is the difference?
Students answer the
questions enthusiastically.
Students discuss with their
friends the various
components that are
required for a plant to
Evaluate- Teacher gives a job sheet for evaluation.
Elaborate- Teacher elaborates with few more examples.
Explain- Teachers asks questions to students to enable them to explain
the types of plants on the basis of mode of nutrition
Explore- Teacher asks students to discuss in groups about the features of
a plant.
Engage- Teacher engages the class by showing a video.
3. 3
How are you going to name those?
Is the life span of a mango tree same as that of a
rice plant?
What does a plant require to be alive?
If we regularly water the plant but keep in a dark
place, will it survive?
So are all the plants green?
What do you notice if stale bread is unattended for
2/3 days?
What do you think caused these changes?
What is the colour of it?
prepare its food. The
Heterotrophs,
Autotrophs,
Saprophytes
and Parasites
Explain-
Teachers asks questions to students to enable them to
explain the types of plants on the basis of mode of nutrition
So what can we conclude from the above discussion?
Explain with the help of different examples examples
of Autotrophs, Heterotrophs, Saprophytes and
Parasites.
What are the various sources of nutrition for plants?
The pupils give the
answers to the questions
raised by the teacher.
Elaborate-
Teacher elaborates with few more examples.
What are Autotrophs?
What are Heterotrophs?
Pupils suggest few more
examples.
Evaluate-
Teacher gives a job sheet for evaluation.
Jobsheet-
Job sheet.docx
Students solve the job
sheet in groups and discuss
for the answers.
Reflection &
Action
The teacher reflects by saying-
Students, if plants are the only food manufacturers of
nature and we actually depend on plants not only for Food,
Shelter and clothing but also for fresh air and oxygen, then
why don’t we use them prudently?
What can be your role in conservation of plants?
Students state the
importance of plantation
of trees and conservation.
Reflection in Process-The students were curious about what they are going to learn when they watched the
video, they were guessing the topic. The name of the topic came from the students itself. A student among
the group was giving good examples and was very sharp. The rest of the class was also very alert during the
lesson.
Reflection after Process-I had skipped Reflection Action due to time constraint however made the students
aware of the importance of conservation of Biodiversity during the video. I could have given more
challenging questions in the job sheet.
