What Is a Lesson Plan and How Do You Make
One?
A lesson plan is a teacher’s daily guide for what students
need to learn, how it will be taught, and how learning will be
measured.
The most effective lesson plans have six key parts:
Lesson Objectives
Related Requirements
Lesson Materials
Lesson Procedure
Assessment Method
Lesson Reflection
LESSON OBJECTIVES
In the context of lesson planning, you can use the SMART criteria to determine your lesson objectives:
The second section on your lesson plan is the list of materials that you
need to teach the lesson and measure student outcomes.
Common types of lesson materials include:
Student handouts
Textbooks
Visual aids
Grading rubrics
Activity packets
Computers / Tablets
3. LESSON PROCEDURE
Your lesson procedure is an in-depth explanation of how the lesson
will progress in the classroom. The lesson procedure is essentially
step-by-step instructions that walk you through everything from the
time students enter the classroom until the bell rings at the end of
the period.
To do that, you can answer a list of questions, including:
In the Reflect phase, students will look back (and reflect on)
what they’ve learned in the lesson.
Phase 4 – Reinforce
1. Assessment of learning
2. Assessment for learning
3. Assessment as learning
Assessment of learning
You can use assessments to help identify if students are meeting grade-level
standards.
Short quizzes
Journal entries
Student interviews
Student reflections
Classroom discussions
Graphic organizers (e.g., mind maps, flow charts, KWL charts)
2. Formative assessment- help teachers understand student learning while
they teach, and provide them with information to adjust their teaching
strategies accordingly.
Portfolios
Group projects
Progress reports
Class discussions
Entry and exit tickets
Short, regular quizzes
3. Summative Assessment -measure student progress as an
assessment of learning. Standardized tests are a type of summative
assessment and provide data for you, school leaders and district
leaders.
Portfolios
A two-stage testing process
Project-based learning activities
5. Norm- referenced assessments are tests designed to compare an
individual to a group of their peers, usually based on national
standards and occasionally adjusted for age, ethnicity or other
demographics.
IQ tests
Physical assessments
Standardized college admissions tests like the SAT and GRE
6. Criterion- referenced assessments- compare the score of an individual
student to a learning standard and performance level, independent of other
students around them.
5. LESSON REFLECTION
The lesson reflection portion of a lesson plan encourages teachers to take notes on how to
improve a lesson after it has been completed.
