LESSON PLANNING DR.HUSNIAH SAHAMID FACULTY OF EDUCATIONAL STUDIES UPM
Points to consider • Different stages of the lesson plan • Clear , specific objectives - learning outcomes • Appropriate activities at each stage • Adapting of lesson plans for mixed ability learners
Format: Lesson Plan Stages: • Set induction • Presentation Stage • Closure
Set induction = pre-presentational stage • Lead in before the lesson begins • Arouse interest • Focus attention to present • Use students’ background knowledge • brief but effective
Presentation stage • Main part of LP • Pre- reading • While reading • Post reading
Closure • Important stage • Conclusion, wrapping-up • T : opportunity to reinforce what was learnt • Brief and effective
General Objective • broad objectives : more like goals • Mathematics: • General Objective: to gain familiarity with adding two numbers together. • Specific objectives: to demonstrate how to add the numbers 2 and 3 together
Specific Objective • behaviourial • measurable • avoid vague verbs: Understand, appreciate, experience
Specific objectives • Skills based approach: • Identify • List • Sequence • Rank • Present/express a viewpoint • State reasons • Drwa conclusions • describe
Setting objectives What do you want to teach? • content of lesson • Syllabus for Level (Form 1-5?) • Proficiency • (Provision for Mixed ability class)
Mixed ability class • T needs to put in effort Eg: Gap-filling activity: • Good students – no clues, words to help S • Average/Poor – clues : deletedwords are adjectives
Other points to consider • Teaching aids • Classroom management • a time estimate for your lesson plan • How are students organised for different activities?
Questioning • Questioning strategies? • Types of questions?
Voice • Pacing – (speed) • Use of silence, pauses • Volume and pitch • Intonation etc
Assessment and evaluation • Teaching (self) • Learning (students) • How do you check for students understanding? • What have you learnt about yourself? • Self questioning/refelective teaching
MISTAKES: 1. The objective • does not specify what the student will actually do that can be observed. • Remember, an objective is a description of what a student does • basis for making an inference about learning. • Poorly written objectives lead = BAD inferences.
2. The lesson assessment • disconnected from the behavior indicated in the objective. • Assessment: description of how T will determine whether objective has been accomplished. • must be based on the same behavior that is In the objective. • Anything else is WRONG
3. The materials • relevant to actual described learning activities • Meaning: keep list of materials in line with what you actually plan to do. • LOADS of materials does not necessarily make an outstanding Lesson
4. The instruction • inefficient for level student learning? • Time • Materials • same amount with less effort.
5. The student activities • does not contribute in a direct and effective way to the lesson objective. • don't engaged students in in activities just to keep them busy. • Whatever you have should contribute accomplishing lesson objective.
