Teachers plan lessons that demonstrate understanding of how activities align to the lesson goals (e.g., work out problems beforehand to anticipate student challenges and plan connection questions to ensure key topics arise).
Teachers use key lesson elements and review key unit elements, such as section narratives and goals, to inform lesson planning.
Teachers work out student problems to anticipate multiple student problem-solving strategies.
Teachers plan questions that prompt students to make connections between mathematical ideas and address common mathematical misconceptions.

Teachers work out student problems and anticipate multiple student problem-solving strategies.
Teachers plan questions that prompt students to make connections between mathematical ideas, but that may not address common mathematical misconceptions.
Teachers review key lesson elements such as the materials to prepare, lesson timeline, learning goals, activity synthesis, and cool-down.
Teachers work out student problems in lesson activities.
Reflect
How do you use key elements from lesson and unit materials to inform your planning?
How does the curriculum, knowledge of your students, local context, and your own experience affect planning?
