Topic 8 : WRITING LESSON PLAN GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGIES

  This semester is coming to an end as it is already december. it seems like semester is almost the same as before. Wake up for class, have lunch breaks, struggle to finish assignments, worked with papa and a whole lot more. Unfortunately I am not going to talk about how go through this semester. In this entry, I am going to talk about my views about Topic 9 which is writing lesson plan goals, objective and strategies.

Goal

Goal determine purpose, aim, and rationale for what you and your students will engage in during class time.  The goals are typically written as required from the educational or State or National curriculum standards.

Objectives

Focuses on what your students will do to acquire further knowledge and skills

Prerequisites

• Can be useful when considering the readiness state of your students.
• Prerequisites allow us and other teachers replicating our lesson plan, to make sure that students can meet the lesson objectives.

Materials 

• Have two functions and it helps other teachers quickly determine.
• How much preparation time, resources, and management will be involved in carrying out this plan and
• What materials, books, equipment, and resources they will need to have ready. 
• What materials will be needed?.
• What textbooks or story books are needed?.

Lesson Description

• Provides an opportunity for the author of the lesson to share some thoughts, experience, and advice with other teachers.

Lesson Procedure

• Provides a detailed, step-by-step description of how to replicate the lesson and achieve lesson plan objectives.
• Usually intended for the teacher and provides suggestions on how to proceed with implementation of the lesson plan.
• Divided into several components:

1. Introduction
2. Main activity
3. Closure/Conclusion
4. Follow up lesson/activities

Parts of a lesson plan :

1.Objectives: Should be relevant to the curriculum i.e. promote learning outcomes across the cognitive, affective and psychomotor domains, 

• promote a range of levels of understanding (low and high) within each domain, 
• be written specifically i.e. each students must know and be able to do, and 
• be achieved by your students.

2. Resources: It denotes which resources you and the learners will use in order to accomplish the specific instructional objectives.

: Preparing 40 Minutes Lesson Plan

, I learn about Chapter 8, the ‘Preparing 40 Minutes Lesson Plan’. I also learn about Chapter 9, the ‘Classroom Management and Learning Environment’. Duke (1987) defines for today’s classrooms as a comprehensive management plan that should include both proactive (preventive) and reactive (disciplinary) management strategies i.e. “classroom management is the provisions and procedures necessary to create and maintain an environment in which teaching and learning can occur.” A good (an effective) teacher is one who is a good classroom manager. A well organized and managed classroom is the first step to an effective teaching learning environment. A good classroom manager must also be a good organizer of academic content and instruction.t

According to my observation about class lesson, in the end of chapter 8, I can learn to preparing 40 minutes lesson plan. I also can learn about classroom management, classroom management applies to all, developing classroom rules, guidelines for good classroom management practice, good classroom management, reasons a good classroom management important and the ways to organize an academic content and instruction by a teacher. 

Thats all for this entry , thankyou :)
