Write the Lesson Plan

1. On your own or working with 1 or 2 others in our ED 240 class who are at your same apprenticeship site and class (in your same subject area or you can plan an interdisciplinary lesson), develop a detailed lesson plan.
2. Outline the learning plan (teaching & learning activities). This plan should be aligned clearly with the desired results (i.e., geared towards having students meet the objectives, answer the essential questions, and be able to complete the assessment activities). The plan should include all of the following components:
   1. List of instructional materials & resources
   2. Timeline: next to each step, indicate approximate length of time you expect each step to take.
   3. Introductory activities: hook/capture student interest, set the stage, relate to previous learning (review), how this fits into what is to follow (preview), tell students what they will learn and be expected to do as a result of the lesson.
   4. Developmental activities: outline the content and outline the instructional strategies & learning activities. Include details what you will do, how you will organize/prepare students for tasks, and what students will do. If you plan to involve students in discussion, list key/stem questions that you might ask to generate discussion.
   5. Closing activities: list activities that you & students will do to summarize the lesson, reinforce what was covered, and tie everything together so students see how the lesson fits into the context of the rest of the course (what they have already done and what is coming next).

Turn In:

1. Lesson Plan
2. List of resources (you should have at least 2-3)
3. Student handouts, instructions, copies of any visuals (e.g. copies of overhead transparencies, PowerPoint slides)
4. Reflection on all areas identified in Part 2 (these are the same as the domain in the lesson plan rubric) along with a copy of the lesson plan rubric on which you have circled your self-assessment for each domain (print a Word version of the lesson plan rubric).
