When it comes to finding a lesson plan that best fits one, I feel like this is a process of trail and error. There are numerous different styles of lesson plans out there, as I found out with the different sites to look at and the Madeline Hunter article. For me, being organized is not my forte. I feel like coming up with a solid lesson plan style would help me over come the issue of not being organized. With teaching, I feel like having all your ducks in a row will help ensure the lesson is being taught properly. Located below is a style which I came up with. For me, I like things simple and to the point. The below lesson plan style lists everything I feel is important. This style is one which I believe I could follow with ease and keep me well organized. Just like anything though, I will get more comfortable with my lesson plans as time goes on and the more I complete.

Likewise this lesson plan was not only the first one I have known but its also the one that makes the most since because it gives you every step that you need so that you dont leave anything out. I agree with you, once you get to doing them more everything will come more natural.
ReplyDeleteI'm completely opposite Clint, I am the embodiment of organization... most of the time. But because of that sometimes I get overwhelmed with how I'm going to organize something and it makes things worse. I like your straight forward lesson plan idea. It seems like it would be easy to follow and stay to the point!
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly why I want you to think about style. Organization is a particularly needed trait for the teacher. We have a lot to do, in a short time. Learning your style will help you so much!
