STEPS TO BUILD A LESSON PLAN
Engage your students
Give students an outline of what you’re going to be presenting.
Introduce the subject more informally.
If you’re discussing certain historical events, try to draw parallels between those and any current events so students can relate to the material.
Instruct and present information
Involve your students in the process whenever possible so they’re engaged
Whether it’s reading from a book, present information and concepts in a meaningful way.
Don’t forget to account for the different learning styles of your students
Plan your resources and materials
Make a list of the resources and materials you’ll need to teach this lesson
Don’t forget to include technology resources in your plan when appropriate
Allow time for student practice
Collaborative process
Independent Practice
Guided Practice
Determine the needs of your students
Let students know what to expect so they can stay focused on meeting your objectives.
Some students may need more encouragement than others. Identifying these needs in your lesson plan will help you prepare
Ending the lesson
Finish the lesson with a quick wrap-up.
Do a brief overview of the lesson, including the main concepts the class learned
Ask students to identify the key ideas as a refresher, and leave them with a preview of the next lesson so they know what to expect.
Identify the objectives
What do you hope to accomplish by the end of the period?
Are there specific things that your students should know or be
able to do?
Evaluate the lesson
Provide students with the opportunity to show they know the material by using a short quiz or test.
Depending on the results, your next lesson plan may include a review of information before moving on to new material.
