LEARNING EPISODE 3: Writing my learning/

lesson Plans

Answer the following questions to help you achieve your goal of understanding to the concepts, nature,
and goals of writing a learning/lesson plan.

1. What are the things to consider in writing your learning/lesson plans?

In making a lesson plan, we will consider the following factors The first is to identify the learning
objectives for the class discussion. This is for us to have a goal in mind when planning and also the
defining goal of every lesson will provide students with the knowledge they need to succeed. The
second one is selecting the right resources to achieve goals. Lesson planning helps us select appropriate
resources and materials to achieve the goals of our lessons. The third one is identifying potential
obstacles. We need to plan ahead to ensure that we have sufficient time to prepare before classes
begin. The Fourth Quality of Our Lessons It allows us to focus on the most relevant aspects of a topic
while avoiding unnecessary details. This means that we can spend more time teaching rather than
writing out long lists of information for each student. Finally, we want to make learning easier for our
students by planning our lessons before we deliver them; this way, we can make learning and
understanding easier for our students. They will be able to understand concepts better if you deliver
well-thought-out lessons. It further helps improve students’ achievement.

2. What difficulties did you meet in writing your learning/lesson plans?

When creating lesson plans I find it hard to find or formulate good activities that are stimulating
to them or interactive, especially now that students have short attention spans. That is why I'm trying
my best to have an interactive yet the content is still intact discussion.3. What feedback was/were given
by your Resource Teacher in your first draft/succeeding learning/lesson plans?

4. What were the best features/areas for improvement of your learning/lesson plans?

Just like my answer above, I think I need to improve the way I choose activities or incorporate
interactive activities and also how I deliver my discussion.

Analyze the various components of your lesson plans by answering the given matrix. Take note that you
must have provisions to do this lesson on a face-to-face, modular or through online learning.

The lesson plan translates the curriculum into clear daily goals for student learning that include a description of the

objective and a way to measure the student's attainment of it. One benefit of the lesson plan is fitting the assessment to the

particular goal while accounting for your specific situation. Working outward from the central idea of the learning objective allows

teacher’s flexibility in choosing the type of assessment that will best suit their students and the classroom environment. Teacher

success is predicated on student success. Beyond that, the documents you create as part of the planning process are usually part

of your evaluation by school administrators. Therefore, having well-prepared and documented plans is an integral part of your

success as a teacher. Your lesson plans also become a repository of your growing knowledge as you continue to teach. The

importance of lesson planning in furthering your professional growth is undeniable. Cultivating good habits for preparing and

reviewing your lesson plans prepares the ground for your success. Building the lesson plan outward from your learning goals also

offers much-needed flexibility in adapting instructional delivery and classroom management during uncertain times. Classes that

move from onsite to online or hybrid require different delivery methods, requiring adjustments to existing plans. Such situations

highlight the importance of lesson planning in keeping the class moving smoothly from task to task regardless of the learning

environment. Advance lesson planning also minimizes the need for discipline and allows you to make the most of your time with

students.
