The Importance Of A Lesson Plan

Having a well written lesson plan is very important for any and every classroom. It is essential firstly, in being able to have good management over your classroom. If you didn't have a lesson plan and were just "winging it" there would likely be a lot of time gaps in activity. When you have those gaps unfilled; the students get restless and you will start seeing more behaviors to manage within the room. When you have your lessons well planned out; half the work is done. A good lesson plan has a good lesson that students learn from, can understand, can actively apply, makes them critically think, and helps them make connections within their lives. Lesson plans help teachers evaluate students based on what they learned. They provide a base for which the teacher can look back on and gauge how much of the material was learned by the student. In short, lesson plans help teachers keep some resemblance of organization and sanity.

  1. I love that you added a video to you post, it defiantly is different and a way to bring us in. Also i agree with you on when the teacher just wings the day its kind of like having a sub and the students see a opportunity to act out.

  2. I agree that I don't think you can just wing how your classroom will be ran for the day. I think you need to have a lesson plan. What if you had an emergency come up and you had to get a substitute teacher. They wouldn't know what to do cause you didn't have a lesson plan and they would have no idea what was going on in your classroom.
