Lesson plans are plans that teachers develop to help students meet a specific learning goal
(a.k.a objective). Lesson plans have different elements and are written using a variety of
formats. Schools, teachers, districts, and states have different ideas of what a lesson plan
might look like and what information it requires. As you become more experienced, you
will develop your own style of lesson planning. For this course, use the provided
foundational sample to reflect on the function of each element.
After reading the lesson plan, reflect on the FUNCTION of each element. For each
element below answer these two questions:
1. What is the function of this element in a lesson plan?
2. Why is this element necessary in a lesson plan?
This assignment asks you to describe the function of each section of the lesson plan, NOT
to provide a summary of the lesson plan.
