Is a detailed guide created by a teacher that outlines the structure and content of a specific instructional session. It includes what will be taught (the learning goals), how it will be taught (the instructional strategies and activities), the materials needed, and how student learning will be assessed.Â
A well-crafted lesson plan ensures that instruction is organized, purposeful, and aligned with curriculum standards. It helps teachers manage time effectively, anticipate student needs, and make adjustments based on how students respond to the instruction. Ultimately, lesson plans serve as a roadmap to ensure that teaching is focused and learning goals are met.
Example:
Learning objectives and standards, essential questions, instructional materials, teaching strategies, assessments and evaluation, and reflection
