Congratulations on completing the LMSC.
To end this series of lessons, you will need to complete the following:
1) Download the reflection file and the lesson plan template found on the right,
2) Complete a cadet reflection on your learning of the LMSC (using the reflection file) and
3) Design a lesson plan on how you may want to conduct a 3rd class drill lesson for your secondary 1 cadets (using the Lesson Planning [Notes and Template]).
Once completed, you are to submit the reflection along with your lesson plan to your officers or CIs for feedback. This is so that your officers and/or CIs can know how to develop you in the areas you are interested in developing and help you grow as a leader.
These skills will only help you if only when you can effectively practice what you have learnt here.
