(4) What is the difference between a lesson outcome and a lesson objective? Give an example of each. (6)1.3 Suppose you are required to prepare a lesson plan than a novice Natural Science and Technology teacher has to use to teach fo r the first time, what are the key aspects that you would pay attention to in ensuring that they deliver the lesson as you have planned it? (10) 1.4 le Why is it important for teachers to plan for Natural Sciences and Technology ssons? (6) 1.1 [26] Lesson planning refers to the process of designing and organizing instructional activities and resources in order to achieve specific learning objectives. It involves the systematic preparation of a r oadmap for teaching a particular lesson or unit of study. Lesson planning typically includes outlining the content to be taught, determining the instructional strategies and methods to be used, selecting appropriate materials and resources, and considering assessment and evaluation methods 1.2 .

A lesson objective refers to a specific statement that outlines what the teacher i ntends the students to learn or achieve at the end of the lesson. It is usually formulated using action verbs that are observable and measurable. For example, a lesson objective in a mathematics class could be: "By the end of the lesson, students will be a ble to solve linear equations with one variable. " On the other hand, a lesson outcome refers to the broader and more general goals of the lesson. It describes the overall impact or result of the learning experience on the students. An example of a lesson outcome for the same mathematics lesson could be: "Students will develop problemsolving skills and ga
