The stages of lesson planning
Jawaban 1:
One of the teaching sets that must be
well prepared by every teacher before teaching is a lesson plan. This covers a
face-to-face plan of teaching every theme/ topic/material in every meeting. In
this case, every teacher must be familiar with the components of a lesson plan
and also ways to develop it in line with the main problematic issue to increase
and/ or to develop the students’ learning achievement in three domains, namely:
cognitive, affective, and psychomotor skills as assigned by the current
curriculum applied at schools now. The first issue deals with components of the
lesson plan, namely: the goal, objective(s), materials and equipment,
procedure, and evaluation (Soepriyatna. 2017). In the respective explanation,
the goal and objective(s) must be clearly defined and can facilitate the
students to get learning mastery within the lesson. More specifically, goals
describe the lesson’s summative outcomes (where students will go) and the
objectives describe how students will get there (Granite State College, 2022).
Learning goals and objectives serve the ideal condition between the students’
characteristics with all the potentials they have in general and the great
achievement they most possibly obtain through selected materials, teaching media,
and equipment, types of learning activities and tasks given, and lastly
procedures of the required assessment in the end. In other words, they become
the central point of qualities for the prospective students, various resources
as means of achievement, and most importantly the proficiency level owned by
the prospective teacher as the agent. Owing to this consideration, Granite
State College (2022) proposes SMART attributes especially in formulating
learning objectives. Firstly, ‘S’ stands for ‘Specific’ and should state
exactly what is to be accomplished by the student and the conditions in place.
Then ‘M’ is measurable and indicates the results that can be evaluated in clear
and explicit ways, as well as the caliber or level of performance that will be regarded
as acceptable (mastery level). Next, ‘A’ is attainable and for students to
succeed, it should be written at the proper developmental level. Later, ‘R’ is
relevant and in order to meet individual goals, the abilities or knowledge
described must be appropriate for the grade level and subject area. Lastly, ‘T’
is time-bound, stated when students should be able to demonstrate the skill.
Related materials and equipment must be aligned with the students’ interest and
need that finally provide their leveled mastery such as beginner, intermediate,
and advanced in order to classify their achievement and then, generate
continual and sustainable policy behind this matter by providing materials,
teaching media, learning activities, types of tasks, and assessment.
Psychological points of view leading to the application of learning theories
somehow need considering. For sure, this must be related to the exact problem
identified through applied research such as surveys, classroom action research,
experimental research, etc. Then, the procedures of related assessment within a
lesson must first be set away from being forceful, too difficult, lower order
thinking skills, etc, but in contrast, the students regard this subject as
habituation instead. For example, the materials and the ways of testing are
based on authenticity. Its innovation can be exemplified such as
computer-assisted tests, group assessments, peer assessments, etc. with the
conduct format of gamification.
Some important points as a guideline before
developing a lesson planning are:
a. determining a clear goal/ objective
Teachers must be knowledgeable in formulating a clear goal/ objective that best
represents the students’ prior knowledge aligned with the students’ needs at a
future time while considering much the changing need for information and
technology, the global society’s concern and need, etc.
b. anticipating challenges
When creating lesson plans, teachers must be able to imagine any challenges
they might face teaching their class and come up with solutions. It is
important to keep the following things in mind: additions and modifications for
students who want more of a challenge and modifications for students who need
more assistance. The different proficiency among the students must be
anticipated and incorporated into a lesson by making adjustments on materials,
teaching media, learning activities, types of tasks, and assessment.
c. constructing lesson assessment
The assessment and the instructional goal must have a distinct relationship.
There are many different kinds of evaluations, such as examinations, quizzes,
group projects, and oral presentations.
d. making it relevant
Teachers are able to make their lessons a connection to the real world in some
way. Then, they try to find ways of building on previous lessons and tie their
lesson to them as well. If they still have time, consider ways to expand on
their subject in subsequent lessons.
e. practicing presenting
Teachers always practice their material presentation and fix them before they
present it to their class. (Thompson, 2016).
The last concern related to the issue in
this discussion is the stages of lesson planning. They comprise:
a. identifying the learning objectives
Instead of describing what the student will be exposed to during instruction,
teachers discuss what the student will know or be able to do following the
learning experience.
b. planning the specific learning activities
Students should be able to participate in, practice, and receive feedback on
their progress toward meeting the course's learning objectives through learning
activities that are closely linked to those objectives.
c. planning to assess student understanding
Through assessments (such as examinations, papers, problem sets, and
performances), students have the opportunity to demonstrate and practice the
knowledge and abilities outlined in the learning objectives, and teachers have
the opportunity to provide specific comments that can direct further learning.
d. planning to sequence the lesson in an engaging and meaningful manner
Sequencing the lesson can follow Robert Gagne’s (2005) ideas through proposed a
nine-step process, namely: gaining attention, informing the students of
objectives, stimulating recall of prior knowledge, presenting new content,
providing guidance, practicing, providing feedback, assessing performance, and
enhancing retention and transfer.
e. creating a realistic timeline
The most important ideas, concepts, or skills that teachers want their students
to acquire during a lesson must be narrowed down to two or three. They may use
prioritized list of learning objectives, they can quickly assess the situation
and make any necessary adjustments to their lesson plan.
f. planning for a lesson closure
The conclusion of the lesson gives students a chance to consolidate their
learning (Singaporean Management University, 2022).

Jawaban 2:
A lesson plan is the instructor's road map for what students must learn
and how it will be accomplished effectively during class time. Before you begin
planning your lesson, you must first identify the learning objectives for the
class meeting. Then you can create appropriate learning activities and
strategies for gathering feedback on student learning. Teachers decide about
the form and content of their instruction, such as how much presenting,
questioning, and discussing to do; how much material to cover in the allotted
time; and how in–depth to make their instruction (Borich, 2007).
A successful lesson plan addresses and integrates three key components:
1. Learning Objectives
In contrast to what the learner will be exposed to during instruction, a
learning objective explains what the learner will know or be able to do
following the learning experience (i.e. topics). Usually, it is written in
simple words that students can understand and is directly tied to the program's
learning objectives.
2. Learning activities
You should take into account the kinds of activities that students will need to
complete in order to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to demonstrate
effective learning in the course when you are preparing learning activities.
Learning activities should be closely tied to the course's learning objectives
and offer opportunities for students to participate in, practice, and get
feedback on their progress in meeting those objectives. As you plan your
learning activities, estimate how much time you will spend on each.
3. Assessment to check for student understanding
Students have the chance to practice and demonstrate the knowledge and skills
outlined in the learning objectives during assessments (such as formative or
summative tests, papers, problem sets, or performances), and instructors have
the chance to give specific feedback that can direct further learning. We then
decide the criteria and standards that will be used to make assessment
judgements such as rubrics or checklists.
Listed below are 6 steps for preparing your lesson plan before your class.
1. The first step is to decide what you want students to know and be able
to do by the end of the class.
After you've outlined the learning objectives for the class meeting, prioritize
them. This step will prepare you to manage class time and achieve the more
important learning objectives if you are short on time.
2. Plan the specific learning activities (the main body of the lesson)
Prepare a variety of ways to explain the material (real-life examples,
analogies, visuals, etc.) to capture more students' attention and appeal to
different learning styles. Estimate how much time you will spend on each
example and activity as you plan them. Allow time for extended explanation or
discussion, but be prepared to move quickly to different applications or
problems, as well as to identify strategies for checking for understanding.
3. Develop the introduction
Robert Gagne proposed the events of instruction, a nine-step process for
planning the sequence of your lesson. The use of Gagne's 9 events in
conjunction with Bloom's Revised Taxonomy of Educational Objectives assists in
the design of engaging and meaningful instruction.
1. Gain attention: Get the attention of the class and keep it throughout the
instructor's presentation of the lesson's material.
2. Inform learner of objectives: Give children time to organize their ideas
about what they will see, hear, or do.
3. Stimulate recall of prior knowledge: By connecting new knowledge to
what pupils already know or have experienced, you may help them understand it.
4. Present new content: Use a variety of methods including lecture, readings,
activities, projects, multimedia, and others.
5. Provide guidance: Inform students about available resources and strategies
to help them learn content. With learning guidance, students are less likely to
waste time or become frustrated by basing performance on incorrect facts or
poorly understood concepts.
6. Practice: Allow students to apply knowledge and skills learned.
7. Provide feedback: To evaluate and support learning, give pupils immediate
feedback on their performance.
8. Assess performance: To assess the effectiveness of the instructional events,
check to see if the expected learning outcomes were met. Performance should be
based on previously stated objectives.
9. Enhance retention and transfer: Allow students to apply what they've learned
in class to personal situations. By personalizing information, this improves
retention.
4. Plan to check for understanding
Now that you've explained the topic and illustrated it with various examples,
you must assess student comprehension - how will you know if students are
learning? Consider specific questions you can ask students to check for
understanding, write them down, and then paraphrase them so you are ready to
ask the questions in a variety of ways.
5. Create a realistic timeline
A list of ten learning objectives is unrealistic, so focus on the two or three
key concepts, ideas, or skills you want students to learn during the lesson.
Your prioritized list of learning objectives will assist you in making
decisions on the fly and adjusting your lesson plan as needed.
6. Develop a conclusion and a preview
Summarize the main points of the lesson and go over the material covered in
class. You can do this in several ways: you can state the main points yourself
("Today we talked about..."), you can ask a student to help you
summarize them, or you can ask all students to write down what they think were
the main points of the lesson on a piece of paper. You can go over the
students' responses to see if they understand the topic, and then explain
anything that is unclear in the next class. Finish the lesson by summarizing
the main points as well as previewing the next lesson.
To sum up, an effective lesson plan does not have to be a lengthy document that describes every possible classroom scenario. It also does not have to anticipate every student's response or question. It should instead provide you with a general outline of your teaching goals, learning objectives, and methods for achieving them. It serves as a reminder of what you want to accomplish and how you want to accomplish it. A productive lesson is one in which both students and instructor learn from each other, rather than one in which everything goes exactly as planned.

1) Several components of lesson plan
Lesson plan can be defined as a detailed description of an instructor’s course
for an individual lesson intended to help learners achieve a particular
learning objective. There are several component of lesson plan :
a. Goal(s)
The first component in a lesson plan is determining goals of the topic. Goal as
the general intention to improve the quality and effectiveness of teaching and
learning.
b. Objectives
Objectives define what students are going to learn during the lesson and
explain how the learning is going to be assessed. After you write the objective
in the lesson plan, you can write it on the board the day of the lesson . The
objectives should be the ongoing focus of your lesson. Maximize your effort to
create successful learning outcomes with SMART objectives. SMART stands for
specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-bound.
c. Materials and Equipment
Materials and equipment is defined as resources and materials needed to carry
out a lesson. A lesson plan should provide a various materials and resources
that meaningfully enhance student learning. They can be taken from the text
book, digital media, and website.
d. Procedures
The next component of a lesson plan is procedure that consist of the lesson’s
content and delivery. Content includes facts, data, information, formula.
Concept, skill, knowledge, attitudes and learning. The procedure of the lesson
activity in the class should be relevant with the objectives. Classroom
activities or procedures of how lesson is delivery are usually divided into
three stages: (1) activates prior knowledge in an opening experience that
engage students. (2) provide opportunities for students to practice and
actively process their learning. (3) summarizes the knowledge and skills
developed or enhanced through learning experiences as closure
e. Evaluation
Evaluation is the component that play crucial role in assessing the activities
and lesson materials worked or not worked as the frame of plan that actually
prepared or done of the teacher. Teachers could be improved or modified the lesson
plan. Assessment can be done during or after the lesson. Objectives should
become the guide in developing an assessment.
f. Extra-Class work
Extra class work in the form of homework or assignment can functions as an aid
to the student und understanding after the class.
2) Some important points as a guideline before developing a lesson planning:
A. Assess your students' needs. Understanding what your
students need to be successful in class can help you plan more effective
lessons. Use the results from closure activities to determine whether you can
move forward or need to spend more time re-teaching certain content to your
students.
B. Keep a log. Try keeping a log of each day's plans and explain
whether the plan was effective. You can write what went well and what didn't so
you know how to improve that lesson in the future. You can also use it to learn
what strategies have helped your students so you can plan similar lessons.
C. Practice previously taught material. You can strengthen
students' knowledge by reviewing past content in your plans. You can begin some
lessons with worksheets on past skills to let them review and master previously
learned materials before moving on to more complex skills.
D. Have a back up plan. It's useful to have alternative
lessons in case an emergency comes up and you have to leave or you realize that
you or the students don't have all the required materials.
3) The stages of lesson planning:
A. Opening/ Beginning stages
The first step in lesson planning is choosing what to teach. Knowing what to
teach is essential in planning, realization the material that will be presented
to our students. Knowing the materials means not only knowing what topics,
reading texts or language components to teach, but also the most important is
how the students mastering the content of the topic, and predicting what areas
cause problems for the students.
B. Middle stage
In this stage, teacher should organize the lesson materials in a systematic
way. The teacher should use this stage to prepare the teaching materials that
are ordered logically and provide opportunities for the students to attempt to
use the language, and then given them feedback to help them in using it.
Brown(2007) suggests several aspects that need consideration in this stage :
(1) variety, sequencing, pacing, and timing. (2) Estimate difficulty (3)
Individual differences (4) Student talk and Teacher talk. (5) Adapting to an
established curriculum,
C. Closing/end stages
The closing stage is the stage where students should recall and practice the
lesson they learn. At the same time, teachers assess if the students have
achieved the learning objectives or not. This stage is called post-activities
where teacher wraps or sum up the lesson is all about ended by assessment
activities.
D. Lesson plan format
• The lesson format has administrative information, such as name of the course,
teacher, and number of student, date or time. A lesson plan also has goals and
objectives, procedure of teaching and time allocation, material needed, and the
assessment technique. The lesson plan can be completed of Lesson activities.
Lesson materials, Lesson objectives. Lesson goals and Lesson feedback.

Jawaban 4:
Several components of lesson plan:
1. Goals
The knowledge, skills, and values that students should acquire are referred to
as goals, which teachers try to achieve by the end of the class hour.
2. Objectives
An objective is a description of the performance that teachers want students to
be able to display before they are deemed competent. Therefore, objectives
should outline observable performance and behavior. This makes it possible to
assess the goal's success or failure. Robert Mager proposed ABCD model that
consists of 4 elements, namely Audience-Behavior-Condition-Degree.
3. Materials and equipment
Resources and materials to carry out a lesson are referred to as material and
equipment. These should be listed and include things like handouts, a video
player, maps, or laboratory equipment. It's also crucial to list any references
that were utilized.
4. Procedure
It consists of the instruction's subject matter and delivery. What do I want
the learners to know or be able to do is the question that content answers. It
is important to first identify what will be taught and what the students will
learn before describing this component in detail and specificity.
5. Evaluation
This section evaluates the activities that did and did not work, as well as how
the lesson could be changed or improved for the following time. Finding out
what students already know and are capable of helps teachers plan their lessons
for the future and gives students feedback on what they have learned.
6. Extra-class work
Homework or other outside-of-class assignments might help students retain
information after class. Extracurricular assignments should be required for
several reasons, one of which is that they assist students develop their
independence and self-discipline.
Some important points as a guideline before developing a lesson plan:
A lesson plan outlines the learning objectives, creates teaching and learning
activities to meet the goals, organizes the lesson's content using maps, and
designs assessments to determine whether the goals are met.
The stages of lesson planning:
1. Opening/beginning Stage
The steps include:
• Knowing what to teach
It entails understanding the content of the issue and anticipating the areas
where the students may have difficulties, in addition to determining what
themes, reading materials, or linguistic components to teach.
• Knowing classroom situation
It involves being aware of the students' identities, personalities, background
knowledge, and curricula.
• Formulating goals and objectives of the course
It is the main activity in this stage.
2. Middle Stage
The teacher should now systematically arrange the instructional materials.
During this phase, the teacher should produce logically organized teaching
materials, offer opportunities for the pupils to try out the language, and then
provide feedback to aid in their usage.
3. Closing/End Stage
At this point, students should remember and put what they learned into
practice. The teacher evaluates whether or not the students have met their
learning goals at the same time. This stage, also known as post-activities, is
where the teacher summarizes or wraps up the lesson before moving on to
evaluation activities. The lesson aim is something to think about. We should
keep in mind the stated target when developing a strong strategy at this stage.

1.Lesson plan is designed by the teachers which consist the detail informations
of their plan in conducting the course.Well-planned lesson plan is needed in
ensuring the thing that is going to teach by the teacher and what kind of
learning objective that must be achive by students.Lesson plan enables the
teacher to thoughtfully address individual learning needs among
students.Meanwhile ,knowing the lesson plan of their course extremely helpful
for the students in achieving their learning objective.The lesson plan is
‘’teaching planned preparation"(Cooper,1990).
Based on Brown (2007),there are six components of lesson plan;
A.Goal(s)
Developing correct, structured and complete learning objectives is very
important as a guide for teachers to choose teaching materials, strategies,
models, methods and learning media used during the teaching and learning
process. There are 4 main elements in the formulation of learning objectives,
these 4 elements are shortened to ABCD (Audience, Behavior, Condition, and
Degree).
• Audience
The audience is the students/learners.They are the subject and the object of
the learning process.In constructing the goal of the lesson plan,the students
be the centre of the process,they act the crucial part.
• Behavior
Behavior means activity in a process. In the context of teaching and learning
activities, behavior refers to the performance or activities that students are
able to accomplish at the end of the learning process.
• Condition
The formulation of the condition is by answering questions such as "what
activities will students do so that the expected results can be obtained?"
In the learning objectives, the condition is written in the form of a verb.
• Degree
Degree has the meaning of a comparison. In the context of teaching and learning
activities, degree means comparing the condition of students before and after
learning activities.
B.Objective
Some instructors tend to forget to write learning objectives from the students’
perspective. Mager (1997) contends that when you write objectives, you should
indicate what the learner is supposed to be able to do and not what you, the
instructor, want to accomplish. Also, avoid using fuzzy phrases such as “to understand,”
“to appreciate,” “to internalize,” and “to know,” which are not measurable or
observable.
C.Materials & Equipment
The preparation of learning materials must support the goals to be achieved.
These goals must be appropriate with Competency Standards and Basic
Competencies that must be achieved by students. That is, material specified for
learning activities should be material that really supports the achievement
competency standards and basic competencies, as well as the achievement of
indicators.
Learning materials are chosen as optimally as possible to assist students in
achieving standards
basic competencies and competencies. Things to consider regarding material
selection
learning is the type, scope, sequence, and treatment of learning materials
the.
D.Procedures
The learning process is one of the important stages in learning. Therefore, the
learning process is design through systematic and systematic procedures.
Learning procedure is a sequential process in forming students' abilities in
accordance with predetermined goals.
E.Evaluation
Learning evaluation activities include measurement and assessment, which go
through three stages: planning, implementing, and processing results and
reporting. The three stages must in linein line to the general principles of
learning evaluation that must be followed in order to achieve better evaluation
results, namely the principles of continuity, comprehensiveness, fairness,
objective, cooperative, and practical.
F.Extra-class works
The extra -class works give students opportunity to understand more the
materials.It can be in form of home work.There are some purposes of giving
extra-class works,for instance ;make students review the materials have been
studied during the class hour,make them more independent and discipline at the
same time.
2.The important points before designing the lesson plan.
Before constructing the lesson plan,there are some important point to take into
account:
A.The curriculum
In the curriculum there are the list of competency standards, basic
competencies, basic materials, learning objectives, indicators and time
allocation for teaching these materials.For sure the lesson plan is constructed
refer to those list.
B.The school condition
Planning the lesson plan also needs to pay attention to the condition of the
school, especially the availability of infrastructure and learning aids,
because both of them support the implementation of various student learning
activities.
It is impossible for teachers to carry out teaching and learning activities in
practice using computers if there are no computers available at the school.
Likewise, it is impossible for teachers to ask students to observe plants if
there is no garden in the school/around the school.
C.The students competency.
The preparation in constructing the lesson plan must be adjusted to the
conditions of students. Likewise, the materials and methods of learning are
adapted to the conditions of students, in other words, the preparation in
constructing the lesson plan needs to be adjusted to the abilities and
development of students.
D.The teachers ability
Teachers are required to have the ability in all matters relating to the
implementation of education and teaching. If at one time a teacher has a
deficiency, then he is required to immediately learn / improve his abilities.
For teachers who still have very little teaching experience, it is necessary to
pay attention to being included in training so that their abilities can be
improved.
3.The stages of the lesson plane
A.Opening stage
• Opening with greetings and praying to start learning, checking the attendance
of students as a discipline attitude
• Linking the material/theme/learning activities to be carried out with the
experience of the students with the previous material/theme/activity and asking
questions to remember and connect with the next material.
• Conveying motivation about what can be obtained (objectives & benefits)
by studying the material.
• Explain the things to be learned, the competencies to be achieved, and the
learning methods to be taken,
B.Middle stage
• LITERATURE ACTIVITIES
Students are given motivation and guidance to see, observe, read and rewrite.
They are given impressions and reading materials related to the material to be
studied.
• CRITICAL THINKING
The teacher provides an opportunity to identify as many things as possible that
are not understood, starting from factual questions to hypothetical questions.
This question must still be related to the COLLABORATION material.
Learners are formed into several groups to discuss, collect information,
re-present, and exchange information about the material being studied
• COMMUNICATION
Students present the results of group or individual work classically, express
opinions on the presentations made and then respond back by groups or
individuals who present
• CREATIVITY
Teachers and students make conclusions about the things that have been learned.
Students are then given the opportunity to ask questions about things that have
not been understood.
C.Closing stage
• Learners make a summary / conclusion of the lesson about the important points
that arise in the new learning activities carried out.
• The teacher makes a summary / conclusion of the lesson about the important
points that arise in the new learning activities carried out.

Jawaban 6:
Lesson plan is a planning that the teacher made to reach the goals and
objectives in teaching learning. several components of lesson plan according to
Brown 2007; The first is goals, having a clearly described goal will motivate
learners to persue it, improve the effectiveness of teaching and learning, and
improve the quality of teaching learning process. the second one is objectives,
objectives is more specific than goals. an objective is a description of a
performance that teachers want from learners to be able to show before
considering them as competent.The specification will also become the guidance
in organizing teaching activities. The third is materials and equipment,
starting materials and equipment functions as a "checklist" that will
remind teachers about things that are needed to take along to the class. the
materials and equipment can be developed by designing a authentic, meaningful,
and fun materials. The fourth is procedure that consists of the lesson's
content and delivery. The content should be listed, detailed, and sequenced in
a logical order. Content includes facts, data, information, formulae, concepts,
skills, knowledge, attitudes and or learning. The fifth is evaluation, this
component reflects about what activities worked or did not work as well as how
the lesson could be improved or modified the next time around. The last is
extra class work in the form of homework or assignment can function as an aid
to the students understanding after the class. the kind of extra work
assignment provides opportunities for reinforcement of work learned during
school time.
Important points as a guideline before developing a lesson planning, Thompson,
2016, the first one is determine a clear goal and objective, teachers must be
good in formulating a clear goal and objective that can motivate students to
achieve that goal and objective. The second one is anticipating challenges,
when we create a lesson plan, we have to anticipate tha challenge that we faced
in formulating the lesson plan, the third is constructing lesson assessment,
the assessment and the instructional goal must have a distinct relationship.
There are many different kinds of evaluations, such as examinations, quizzes,
presentations and etc. The fourth is making it relevant, teachers are able to
make their lessons a connection to the real world in some way. the last is
practicing presenting, as a teachers always practice their material
presentation and make it fix them before they present it to their class.
The stages in lesson plan;
1. opening/beginning stage
The first step is choosing what to teach, for example we want to teach
narrative text, we have to know its language features or its text structures.
Brown 2007 suggests how to begin planning a lesson in sequence, determine what
the topic and purpose the lesson will be, draft our perhaps one to three
explicitly stated terminal objectives, work on teaching materials, draft our
skeletal outline of what your lesson will look like, plan step by step
procedures for carrying out all the steps
2. Middle stage
In this stage teacher should organize the lesson materials in a systematic way.
Brown 2007, suggests several aspects that need consideration, variety,
sequencing, pacing and timing, estimating difficulty, individual differences,
student talk and teacher talk, and adapting and established curriculum.
3. Closing/ End stage
The closing stage is the stage where students should recall and practice the
lesson they learn. this stage always called by post activities. To formulate a
good technique in this stage, please always refer stated objective.

1. Several components of lesson plan and the way to develop it
Teachers can more effectively teach with an understanding of a clear objective.
Students can learn their overall goal at the start of the lesson so they know
what to focus on and how the content applies to them. Here are six components
often found in lesson plans we can try using when planning our own lessons.
a. Objective
Objectives define what students are going to learn during the lesson and
explain how the learning is going to be assessed.
b. Materials
We must prepare the materials ahead of the lesson, so we have more time to
focus on teaching
c. Background knowledge
It focuses on students' prior experiences or knowledge on a topic to help them
make new connections with that topic during the lesson.
d. Direct instruction
Direct instruction includes the portion of the lesson you use to instruct the
class on the skills they are going to learn. This can include explaining the objective,
activating students' prior knowledge, having students take notes on the new
material, reading from the textbook or modeling how to complete the work before
moving on to guided practice.
e. Guided teaching
After completing direct instruction, teachers can use a guided teaching
strategy known as gradual release, which scaffolds the learning process into
smaller pieces so that it is easier for students to understand.
f. Closure and assessment
Closure is one of the last components of a lesson plan. It allows students to
analyze and summarize what they learned in the lesson for the day, assess their
understanding of what they learned and inform the teacher of whether they met
the lesson's objective.
To be able to develop the component, we must understand what students need in
order to plan lessons more effectively. In addition, from concluding activities
and providing feedback, we can determine whether students have understood or
not. By making a note of the plan every day we will also know whether the plan
is effective or not so that the next plan can be determined. if the material
that has been taught is successful then it needs to be improved but if it is
not maximal then it needs to be revised both in terms of strategy and teaching
materials. with practicing previously taught material, we can strengthen
students' knowledge. You can start some lessons with worksheets on past skills
to allow them to review and master previously learned material before moving on
to more complex skills. It also have a backup plan. It's useful to have
alternative lessons in case of an emergency and you have to leave or you
realize that you or the student doesn't have all the necessary materials.
2. Some important points as a guideline before developing a lesson planning
Creating a successful lesson plan is a complicated task for all educators. Here
are our 5 things you need to know to create a great lesson plan:
a. Clear Goal/Objective: There is always something new for you to teach your
students. It is important to set clear goals and objectives for your lesson
plan to ensure that you stay on topic and cover the relevant information
b. Anticipate Challenges: While you're creating your lesson plan, imagine
potential challenges you may face while presenting your lesson and brainstorm
ways to avoid them.
c. Lesson Assessment: There must be a clear relationship between the assessment
and the lesson objective.
d. Make it Relevant: Be sure to include some sort of real world application in
your lesson. This will help your students grasp otherwise complicated topics
with much more ease. Additionally,
e. Practice Presentation: a script is a valuable tool to help us stay on topic.
Going through the practice of creating a script and practicing our presentation
also shows our flaws in our plan allowing us to fix them before it's time to
present it to our class.
3. The purpose of a lesson plan is providing a structure step-by-step of what
the teacher wants students to be able to do by the end of a lesson, or what
they will have done during it.
Although there are many possibilities, here is an example of the stages of a
lesson:
a. Introduction
This stage provides interest and motivation to the students. Before starting
the class, this stage focuses on the b. Greetings, warm-up or lead-in, review,
class arrangement and presentation of objectives.
to set a purpose, to introduce the topic and assess prior knowledge, to
introduce new vocabulary, to review a topic, to analyze the graphic and textual
components, and to know students’ interests development
This stage is the most student-centered part of the process. The activities for
this stage present the subject matter in coherent way and provide students
opportunities to participate and practice.
To provide controlled practice of the target language, to favor cooperation and
integration, and give students fluency practice.
c. Consolidation
This stage is called “Independent practice”. It gives students the
opportunities to use their newly learned knowledge and skills. It focuses on a
field application and provides time for students to get their doubts clarified,
to provide free practice of the target language, edit and correct mistakes.
d. Conclusion
To summary, evaluation of objectives and closing. A brief summary or overview
is often appropriate for checking understanding. Also, the students should be
able to demonstrate that they have reached the objectives. The closure step is
also a chance to give students feedback on their performance, to summarize and
check understanding, to clarify any doubt about the topic and to reinforce what
was taught in class.

One of the fundamental abilities a teacher must possess is
lesson planning. Course plans typically serve to: Provide the lesson with a
framework, an overall shape, To remind teachers what they had planned to do,
particularly if they become distracted or briefly forget.
1. Several components of lesson plan and the way to develop it
1. Goal(s). Setting topic goals is the first step in
creating a lesson plan. Goals, which are occasionally used synonymously with
aims, are often chosen during the lesson planning process. Goals are what the
teacher hopes to accomplish at the end of the class session and refer to the
knowledge, skills, and values that students should acquire.
2. Objectives. An objective is a description of the
behavior that teachers want students to be able to display before being taken
into consideration as a component. Therefore, objectives should outline
observable performance and behavior. It is crucial to properly establish the
objectives since only when they are defined can instructionally resources,
methods, and assessments be prepared.
3. Materials and equipment. Materials
and equipment requirements should be listed as a part of the lesson plan when
creating one. Resources and materials required to carry out a lesson are
referred to as materials and equipment. This includes, but is not limited to,
maps, video players, handouts, and lab supplies. The lesson plan should include
a list of all the supplies, tools, and resources that will be used.
Additionally, copies of the materials and/or resources that will be used, such
as the worksheet, word list, and game instructions, should be sent.
4. Procedure. The next part of a lesson plan is process,
which includes the subject matter and method of instruction. The information
should be outlined, listed, and arranged logically. Facts, data, information,
formulations, concepts, skills, knowledge, attitudes, and learning are all
examples of content.
5. Evaluation. A lesson plan should
include outline the elements of the teacher's post-class evaluation. This
section evaluates the activities that did and did not work, as well as how the
lesson could be changed or improved for the following time. Finding out what
students already know and are capable of helps teachers plan their lessons for
the future and gives students feedback on what they have learned.
6. Extra-class work. Extra-class work activities such as homework or assignments might help students retain information beyond class. This kind of after-school project offers chances to reinforce material gained in the classroom. By doing this, students will be required to gather information for the assignment from a variety of sources, including dictionaries, reference books, periodicals, and the internet. Extracurricular assignments should be required for several reasons, one of which is that they assist students develop their independence and self-discipline.
2. Some important points as a guideline before developing a lesson planning
The daily learning activities that take place in the
classroom are guided by the lesson plan. Lesson plans serve as a roadmap for
arranging the lesson's material, defining the learning objectives to be
attained, formulating teaching and learning activities to achieve the goals,
and designing assessments to determine whether the goals were met.
3. Some important points as a guideline before developing a lesson planning
1. Opening/beginning stage. Choosing
what to teach is the first stage in the lesson planning process. Knowing what
to teach is crucial for planning because it is the subject matter that will be
covered with our students. Knowing the materials entails not only knowing what
subjects, texts to study, or language skills to teach, but also—and this is
crucial—mastering the subject's content and anticipating the issues that the
students will encounter. Knowing the classroom environment, which involves
knowing the kids' identities, personalities, backgrounds, and curriculum, is
the other important factor.
2. Middle stage. The teacher should
now systematically arrange the instructional materials. The teacher should use
this stage to develop logically organized instructional materials, provide
students opportunity to try utilizing language, and then give them feedback to
aid them in doing so. The students' opportunity to gather information while
engaging in activities is at this stage. Brown (2007) suggest several aspects
that need consideration in this stage. Those are:
·
Variety, Sequencing, Pacing, and Timing.
·
Estimating Difficulty
·
Individual differences
·
Student talk and teacher talk
·
Adapting to an established curriculum.
3. Closing/end stage. Students
should review and put into practice what they learned throughout the closing
phase. This phase, which is occasionally referred to as post-activities, is
where the teacher summarizes or wraps up the lesson before moving on to the
evaluation activities.

1. The components and steps for developing the lesson plans can be
explained as follows:
a. Include identity
Identity is the first thing that is included in preparing the lesson plans.
Things that must be included in the identity are the name of the school,
subject, class/semester, competency standards, basic competencies, indicators,
and time allocation. The name of the school is the place where the lesson plans
will be practiced, for example, SMP Negeri 11 Lubuklinggau. Subjects are
subjects that must be taught and studied by teachers and students, for example
the subject of Social Sciences. Class/semester is the level or level of
students who will receive lessons, for example Class VIII semester 2.
Competency standards are descriptions of knowledge, skills, and attitudes that
must be mastered after students study certain subjects. Basic competencies are
knowledge, skills, and attitudes that must be achieved by students which show
that students master the competency standards that have been set. Time
allocation is the number of learning hours in accordance with the number of
Basic Competencies.
b. Include learning objectives
The purpose of the lesson contains the mastery of the competencies targeted or
to be achieved by students. Learning objectives are formulated with reference
to the formulations contained in the indicators, therefore the number of
formulations of learning objectives can be the same or more than the
indicators. The reason teachers should set learning objectives is to be able to
select materials, methods, and sequences of activities in order to have a
commitment to creating a learning environment so that they can achieve goals
and assist teachers in making correct assessments. Teachers will not know their
students have achieved a goal if the teacher has not written down the learning
objectives to be achieved. c. Include learning materials
Learning materials are materials used to achieve learning objectives. The thing
that must be known is that the material in the lesson plans is a development of
the main material contained in the syllabus. Therefore, the learning materials
in the lesson plans must be developed in detail even if necessary the teacher
can develop them into a Student Book.
d. Include learning models/methods
The determination of the learning model or method must pay attention to what
the material will be taught. Not all models or learning methods are suitable to
be applied in all learning materials. In addition to paying attention to the
material being taught, the model or learning method must also pay attention to
the characteristics of the students. Each student has the ability to receive
different lessons, so the model or learning method used must be in accordance
with the learning material and the characteristics of the students so that the
learning implementation activities can run in a conducive manner.
e. Include the steps of learning activities
The steps of learning activities must be included in the lesson plans to be a
guide when teachers carry out learning implementation activities in the
classroom. Basically, the steps of learning activities contain introduction/initial
activities, core activities, and closing activities, each of which is
accompanied by an allocation of the required time.
f. Include media/tools/materials/learning resources
The selection of learning resources refers to the formulation contained in the
syllabus. If these three aspects are met then
preparation must clearly state: 1) media, 2) tools/materials, 3) learning
resources used. Therefore, the teacher must understand correctly the meaning of
these three aspects.
g. Include rating
The assessment is described on the type/technique of assessment, the form of
the instrument and the instrument used to measure the achievement of indicators
and learning objectives. The assessment format can be presented in the form of
a horizontal matrix or a vertical matrix. The assessment format should include
the technique/type, instrument form, answer key/answer signs to facilitate the
assessment process.
2. Making learning implementation plans should not be done haphazardly. In
making a lesson plan, it must be based on the following 3 important points,
namely: efficient, effective, and student-oriented. So, it is guaranteed that
smart teachers will more easily achieve learning goals.
3. Stages of making an Effective Learning Plan
a) Understand the purpose
When making a lesson plan for the first time, the goal should be the main
thing. We need to know what we want to achieve, what the disciples are expected
to master.
For example, students will be able to mention the differences between verbs and
adjectives and how to use them.
Basically, goals are what students can do after we give them teaching
materials. If you want something more challenging, we can invite them to
explain what they are good at by making games, videos, presentations and more.
b) Get to know the students
We can't just prepare lesson plans when we don't have the slightest information
about who the students we will teach are. Knowing the student is the second
most important step to take.
How do they learn (visuals, like tests, like presentations, or a combination of
these), what they already know (don't waste time teaching what they already
know).
Focus on lesson planning to fit the overall number of students in the class.
Don't forget to also modify the lesson plan to ensure that all students with
disabilities, those with learning difficulties, lack of enthusiasm, and even
those with excess intelligence take part in learning activities.
c) Write down the expected abilities
Slightly similar to the first point, but actually different. If in the first
point what is expected is the ability possessed by the student, here is the
understanding.
For example, if students succeed in knowing the difference between an adjective
and a verb, then they must also understand when to use the word correctly.
If students learn about the history of Indonesian independence, they also need
to understand the reasons why various events at that time could have occurred.
d) Determine study time
Make sure we determine the right time in the lesson plan. This needs to be done
so that we can ensure that all the material we want to convey can be conveyed
properly.
For example, at the beginning of teaching time, we warm up to attract students'
attention. Then the next time we present the teaching materials. Then allow
time for discussion. Followed by training activities to further hone the
information. And finally we provide conclusions from the learning outcomes.
e) Use multiple forms of interaction
Some students can study well alone. But not with some other students who will
usually be able to study better if they have a partner or study partner.
Indeed, as long as we interact with students, then we have done learning
effectively. But every student is different, and we need to try different ways
to maximize learning.
Use multiple forms of interaction with students. Whether with learning tools or
with group learning methods. With this, of course the teaching and learning
atmosphere will be more lively and easy to understand.
f) Maximize different teaching styles
One teacher is very likely to have a student who can't sit still watching a 25
minute video, but another student may have no problem reading a 2 page book
quietly.
There's nothing wrong with them. Both have different preferences and ways of
learning. Therefore, we need to use different teaching methods every time to
effectively teach each student.
Every student is different. Sometimes there are students who like to listen to
the teacher's explanation directly, but there are also those who prefer if they
learn directly by themselves. When the teacher has started to explain the
teaching material too often, it never hurts to invite students to talk about
what is being discussed.
This will provoke the ability and desire of students to learn the teaching
material being discussed.
g) Make redundant and backup plans
Having a lot to do is better than nothing. So, we should make a lesson plan
with many activities that we can use and maximize. Do not let us even lose
material or activities in the middle of teaching time.
The easiest way is to make a conclusion game. Ask students what conclusions can
be drawn from today's lesson. Or we can also have a discussion with the
students, inviting them to ask questions and express their opinions.
Not only redundant, we also need to prepare a backup plan. This backup plan
will be very useful if the initial plan that was made turns out to be unable to
be carried out for one reason or another.
h) Leave time for questions
If you have a class with a lot of time to discuss teaching material, leave at
least 10 minutes for questions at the end of time. This can turn into a
discussion as well as provoke more in-depth questions that will help students
understand the material more quickly.
If it turns out that there are no students in the class who want to ask questions,
give them a topic to discuss together, and ask them to share their opinions on
the topic. Ask other students for opinions about their classmates' opinions.
i) Make sure it is easy to understand the substitute teacher
Anything can happen. The teachers are no exception. If one day something
happens and you can't teach, of course it will be very helpful if the
substitute teacher has a lesson plan that is in line with what has been made.
Therefore, it is important to make lesson plans that are easy to understand by
other people or substitute teachers.
There are several lesson planning templates that can be very attractive; so it
will be easier for the substitute teacher to understand.

1. Several components of lesson plan and the way to develop it
A lesson plan is a detailed description of the instructor's course for
individual lessons intended to help students achieve certain learning goals,
and it records teaching activities, teaching materials, and the most important
objectives for students (Soepriyatna, 2019). Rochmawati & Ahmadi (2017)
stated that a lesson plan is a teacher's plan to teach certain subjects at
certain grade levels for certain topics, and for one or more meetings.
According to Harmer (2001), defined lesson planning is the art of combining a
number of different elements into a coherent whole so that a lesson has an
identity. Brown (2001) defined lesson planning as the process of selecting and
organizing a coherent set of activities spanning a period of class time.
According to Brown (2001), there are several components of a lesson plan, they
are:
·
Goals
This component determines the goals of the topic. It refers to the knowledge, skills, and values that students must develop that the teacher will try to achieve by the end of the class period.
·
Objectives
This component is more specific. Soepriyatna (2019) stated that an
objective is a description of performance that learners are able to exhibit
before considering them competent. According to Richard in Soepriyatna (2019),
the objective should be as follows:
a. Describe a result of learning.
b. Be consistent with the goal.
c. Be precise, it should not be ambiguous or vague
d. Be feasible, it can be reached in the available time during a course
Soepriyatna (2019) also mentioned that the objective must have three essential
components as follows:
a. Performance, what learners will be able to do?
b. Condition, the parameter within which they can do it.
c. Criteria, the level of competence expected
·
Materials and Equipment
This component is the resources and materials needed to carry out a
lesson and teaching materials for English Class consist of four rules, they are
scaffolding, models, references, and stimulus (Soepriyatna, 2019).
·
Procedure
It consists of the lesson’s content and delivery. Content should be
listed, detailed, and sequenced in a logical order.
·
Evaluation
This component reflects on what activities worked or did not work as well
as how the lesson could be improved or modified the next time around.
Assessments are used to find what students already know and can do, provide
data for teachers to drive future instruction, and provide feedback to students
on what they have learned.
·
Extra-class work
This component is in the form of homework or assignments. One of the
important reasons why extra class work should be given is the fact that these
activities help students to become not only independent learners but also disciplined.
According to Chalk.com (https://www.chalk.com/introduction-to-lesson-planning),
the components of the lesson plan are as follows:
·
Lesson objectives: what students will learn or can
do after the lesson
·
Materials: the resources needed to support their
learning
·
Learning activities: activities that students
participate in to achieve lesson objectives
·
Time requirement: the amount of time set aside for
each learning activity
·
Related requirements: how does the lesson conform
to national, state, or school standards
·
Assessment: how the teacher will measure student
learning
·
Evaluation and reflection: a summary of what
worked, what didn't, and why
2. Some important points as a guideline before developing a lesson
planning
Richards & Renandya (2002) mentioned some following questions that may be
important for language teachers to answer before planning their lessons:
- What do you want the students to learn and why?
- Are all the tasks necessary — worth doing and at the right level?
- What materials, aids, and so on, will you use and why?
- What type of interaction will you encourage — pair work or group work — and
why?
- What instructions will you have to give and how will you give them (written,
oral, etc.)? What questions will you ask?
- How will you monitor student understanding during the different stages of the
lesson?
Brown (in Soepriyatna, 2019) mentioned some guidelines before developing a
lesson plan as follows:
- Determine the topic and goal of the lesson and write it down as an overall
goal.
- Conceptualize perhaps one to three explicitly stated terminal objectives for
the lesson.
- Working on teaching materials, we can add or delete or change exercises in
the textbook based on the objective set
- Make a skeletal outline of what your lesson looks like, consisting of
pre-activity, whilst activity, and post activity.
- Plan step by step
The stages of lesson planning
According to Soepriyatna (2019), there are three stages in lesson planning,
they are:
- Beginning / Opening Stage
This stage is knowing what will be taught in planning and realizing that the
material that will be delivered to our students (covering the topic, reading
the text, and most importantly mastering the content of the topic, and also
predicting what areas cause problems for students)
- Middle Stage
We should organize the lesson materials in a systematic way. Brown in
Soepriyatna (2019) suggests several aspects of this stage as follows:
a. Variety, sequencing, pacing, and timing
b. Estimating difficulties
c. Individual differences
d. Student talk and Teacher talk
e. Adapting to an Establish Curriculum
- Closing/End stage
This is the stage where students have to remember (recall) and practice the
lessons they have learned.

DISKUSI 6 EFL
1. Several components of lesson plan and the way to develop it.
Lesson plan is a very important for teaching and it guides teachers to keep
track of the lesson so the teacher will not be freely teaching what he or she
knows what he or she will teach students of what they need to master based on
the learning objectives.
According to Yang L, a TEFL certification graduation of ITTT, a good lesson
plan should include the following five components:
- Lesson Topic
It shows the main topic of what will be taught in the class, and it must be
short and clear for example the use of Present Perfect Tense
- Class Objectives
It is the focus of each lesson and it is about what the teacher wants students
to do by the end of the lesson.
- Procedure (Lesson Sequence)
It is about the sequence of the lesson and shows the progress of the lesson,
So, what is be taught first and what is taught second and so on should be known
by the teacher till the last activity of the lesson.
- Time Management
The teacher should plan time session in the class so he or she will not run out
of time or finish the lesson early.
- Student Practice
It is good for the teacher to check students; understanding on what they have
just learnt during the lesson.
The six components which are suggested Brown (2007) are as follow:
- Goals
It is a general achievement on the lesson material which still covers some
topics, and not specific purposes. It is like what we achieve on Basic
Competence needs some meetings to complete and achieve. So, I think goal is to
achieve what is written on the basic competence, and to reach the goals we need
more meetings and time allotment because it includes the learning purposes from
the beginning to the end of the lesson
- Objectives
It states and specifies the learning purposes in detailed, for example: the
students are able to identify the linguistic features and generic structures of
the recount text. Objectives on the lesson plan is made based on the indicator
or learning objectives of the lesson. So, the objectives are measurable and
observable.
- Materials and equipment
Lesson material taken by the teacher must be meaningful and acceptable for them
to be applied in their daily life. To make the class and learning process more
alive and interesting then the teacher should have learning media and
additional equipment to guide students’ understanding upon the lesson. The
learning models and media are important to be applied in the class.
- Procedure
The procedure of the lesson plan may depend on the learning model we take in
teaching learning process, but the generally we have similar one for the whole
steps. The procedure is as follow:
A. Opening
It is including greeting, checking students’ presence, giving motivation,
explaining the learning objectives.
B. Set of activities and techniques
The set of activities and techniques can be :
Pre activity
Main Activity
Closing activity
C. Closure
On the closure, the teacher needs feedback from the students about the lesson,
and identify students who need repetition on the lesson. So there must be a
reflection in the class before the end of the lesson, and the teacher can
summarize the lesson and provide a brief explanation about the next lesson.
- Evaluation
This evaluation is important to do for having data which activities has worked
and has not. It is also good for measuring the students’ achievement on the
learning objectives. By doing evaluation, the teacher can identify what the
students already know and can do. All the feedback, score, grade can be
acquired here. The teacher may select, adapt, or develop materials for the
process of evaluation and it is conducted based on the assessment need that the
teacher formulates on the goals and objectives.
- Extra-Class Work
It aims to check students’ understanding about the lesson, help students find
additional reference, resources of information from other media, and it is good
to help students to be discipline and independent in doing their own task.
2. Some important points as a guideline before developing a lesson planning
Opening Stage
It includes deciding the materials, mastering the topic, predicting problems
probability, finding out the class situation including student’s background and
personality.
Middle Stage
According to Brown (2007), several aspects must be consideration on this stage:
- Variety – Sequencing – Pacing and Timing (four in one)
- Estimating difficulties
- Individual differences
- Talks (teacher, and students)
- Curriculum oriented
Closing Stage
3. The stages of lesson planning
I am sure there are countless posts, articles, and journals, resources on the
internet about how to undertand the concept of the stages of the lesson plan. I
try to get any resources from one of the sites,
https://everydayesl.com/blog/three-stages-of-lesson-planning which states a
little about the stages of the lesson plan, namely:
- Pre - Planning
Here, the teacher may have a great time to make decision on what to teach or
the direction of the lesson. What will I teach and what will the students need
to know and do after the lesson, are the great questions to answer on the pre
planning.
- Planning
Planning is the answer on how to do teaching and reach the learning objectives.
So, it refers to how will I teach. The learning objectives can be seen on how
we present material, what teaching model we use, what activities,tasks,
projects,and homework we give to the students in order to achieve the learning
objectives.
- Post – Planning
It refers to where I will go next. A lesson plan will never end on a piece of
paper, it needs the follow up and next action. The teachers have to commit
reflecting the lesson, make a good strategy and think of upcoming lessons, and
consider how we learn from the mistake.
Thanks

Jawaban 12:
A good lesson plan illustrates how a teacher develops goals for their students
and assesses their mastery. Creating a lesson plan starts with connecting state
standards to your curriculum and determining which goals you want your students
to achieve within a particular unit of study. Strong lesson plans are the
cornerstone of an effective classroom for the teacher and students.
1. Brown in Sepriyatna (2019: 6.2) suggests six components. There are as
follows:
a. Goal (s)
The first component of a lesson plan is identifying the topic's objectives.
Goals, frequently used synonymously with objectives, are typically defined
during class preparation. Having a well-defined objective will inspire students
to pursue it, enhance the efficacy of teaching and learning, and ultimately
enhance the quality of the teaching-learning process.
b. Objective
A goal for a particular unit of study is more narrowly focused than the overall
objective. One cannot achieve one's goals without first establishing their
objectives. An objective is a statement of what students should be able to do
by the time their professors would consider them proficient. This means that
objectives should focus on measurable, quantifiable indicators of success. This
allows the success or failure of the goal to be quantified.
c. Materials and Equipment
Materials and equipment should be included as a lesson plan component when
designing one. Materials and equipment are the required resources and supplies
for teaching. This may contain pamphlets, video players, maps, and laboratory
equipment.
d. Procedure
The following element of a lesson plan is a method that includes the lesson's
content and delivery. The material should be stated, elaborated upon, and
arranged logically. The content may include facts, statistics, information,
formulas, ideas, skills, knowledge, attitudes, or learning. Procedure or
classroom activities is the second subcomponent.
e. Evaluation
After class is completed, the instructor should evaluate the students'
performance as part of the lesson's assessment. This section discusses the
lesson's successes and failures and ways in which it might be tweaked for the
next time. There is flexibility in deciding whether to evaluate during or after
class. A set of goals should guide the development of an evaluation.
f. Extra-Class Work
Homework and other assignments given outside of class hours may reinforce what
students have learned and help them retain the material for later use. This
additional activity will help students retain what they have learnt in class.
Students will be required to use many resources, including but not limited to
print and online dictionaries, encyclopedias, and journals, to complete their
projects.
2. Some important points as a guideline before developing lesson planning are
written on a website titled How to Write a Lesson Plan as a Student
Teacher at www. drexel.edu/
a. Set Goals
Teachers must first determine which state standards will be addressed within a
specific unit. Using state and Common Core standards, teachers can create
objectives for each lesson based on their unique curriculum and knowledge of
their students’ capabilities.
b . Create an Overview
An overarching idea of what you want to teach in a unit plan allows teachers to
determine what essential questions will be addressed, which resources will be
used throughout the unit, and which vocabulary words or skills need to be
front-loaded before beginning individual lesson plans within the unit.
c. Manage Timelines
Duration is a crucial feature of lesson planning. Since no two classrooms are identical
regarding how students learn and retain information, a teacher must get to know
their students and create appropriate timelines.
d. Know Your Students
The way you structure each lesson relates to how well you know your students
and what type of learners they are. Keeping in mind that teachers are working
with a tech-savvy generation, lesson plans that integrate technology engage
students actively.
3) Soepriyatna (2019: 6.15-6.23) mentions the stages of lesson planning. The
following is his explanation.
a. Opening/ Beginning stages
Choosing what to teach is the first stage of creating a lesson plan. Learning
our subject matter intimately is crucial to effectively preparing lessons for
our students. To be well-versed in the subject matter entails understanding
what concepts, readings, and linguistic components should be taught and,
perhaps more importantly, how pupils learn and retain that information and what
areas are likely to provide challenges.
b. Middle stage
The teacher's job at this point is to set up a coherent framework for the
lessons. In this phase, the instructor should logically organize the course
materials, offer students the opportunity to practice using the language, and
provide constructive comments to help them improve.
c.Closing/end stages
When it comes time to wrap things up, students must reflect on what they've
learned and put it into practice. Teachers also conduct assessments to see
whether or not pupils have grasped the material. Post-activities are completed
after a lesson has been taught and used as a means of evaluation.
Thank you for the opportunity.

Teaching preparation such as making Lesson Plans is very important as a
guide for a teacher to carry out learning in the classroom. Thus, learning can
take place interactively, inspiring, fun, challenging, efficient, motivating
students to actively participate, and providing sufficient space for
initiative, creativity, and independence in accordance with the talents,
interests, and physical and psychological development of students.
Here are the components of the Lesson Plan according to, Brown (2007), Goal
(s), Objectives (s), Materials and equipment, Procedure, Evaluation.
a. Goal
A goal is a general intention of change a learner should perform and it is not
specific enough to be measured. Goal refer to knowledge, skill, and values
learner should develop that teacher will attempt to accomplish by the end of
the class period.
b. Objectives
Objectives are different from the goal. An objectives is a specific of a course
or lesson and objectives is a description of a performance that teacher want
from learners to be able to exhibit before considering them as competent.
c. Material and Equipment
In developing lesson plan, material and equipment needed should be stated as a
component of lesson plan. Material and equipment is defined as resources and
materials needed to carry out a lesson as video, map, book, lab equipment, etc.
d. Procedure
Procedure consist of the lesson’s content and delivery.the content should be
listed, detail, and sequenced in a logical order. Content includes facts, data,
information, formula. Concept, skill, knowledge, attitudes and learning.
e. Evaluation
This activities component reflects about what activities work or did not work
as well as how the lesson could be improved or modified the next time around.
Assessment are used to find out what student already know and can do , provide
data for teachers to drive future instruction, and provide feedback to students
on what they have learned.
Before starting learning activities, a plan is needed that aims to produce a
teaching and learning process that is in accordance with the learning
objectives to be achieved.
a. Formulating Specific Goals
In every activity carried out, we need to know the purpose of the
implementation of the activity to facilitate the steps taken to achieve it.
Similarly, when we want to develop a lesson plan. As a teacher, we need to
formulate or formulate specific objectives of the learning to be conveyed.
b. Choosing a Learning Experience That Students Will Receive
Learning is not only about the presence of students in class, doing activities
listening to explanations, taking notes, and memorizing the concepts given. But
more than that, learning is an experience that will be felt by students so that
the activities in it must be able to stimulate students to think actively and
creatively. Learning should also be able to provide opportunities for students
to find problems and solve them, both individually and in groups.
c. Determining Teaching and Learning Activities
Teaching and learning activities are one of important things in the learning
process itself. As teachers, we can carry out teaching and learning activities
with individual or group approaches. The individual approach is carried out by
students independently by using teaching materials that have been designed so
that students can learn according to their respective abilities and speeds.
While the group approach is carried out in groups, both small and large.
d. Determining the People Involved in the Learning Process
One source of learning that can complement the learning process is the people
involved in it. In this case, the teacher or other equivalent teaching staff is
meant. The teacher acts as a facilitator as well as a learning manager who is
able to provide a pleasant learning experience for students. For this reason,
teachers need to always improve their abilities and skills according to the
character of the times and the students they teach.
e. Determining Tools and Materials for Study
In addition to teachers as learning resources, students also need support in
the form of tools and materials that can support the learning process
f. Planning the Evaluation and Development Process
In preparing lesson plans, an equally important part to consider is planning
the evaluation and development process after teaching and learning activities
take place. From the evaluation activities, we can see the extent to which the
success of the learning process that has been carried out is able to achieve
the learning objectives that have been designed at the beginning.

The several components of lesson plan are:
1. Goals : is a general statement of a course or lesson.
2. Objectives : is a description of a performance that teachers want from learners
to be able to exhibit before considering them as competent.
3. Materials and Equipment : it should be stated as component of lesson plan.
It is defined as resources and materials needed to carry out a lesson.
4. Procedures : it consists of the lesson’s content and delivery.
5. Evaluations : it reflects about what activities worked or did not work as
well as how the lesson could be improved or modified the next time around.
6. Extra=-class works : it is in the form of homework or assignment can function
as an aid to the student understanding after the class.
Some important points as a guideline before developing a lesson planning are:
1. clear goal/objective : It is important to set the clear goal and objective.
2. anticipate challenges : having a good management in classroom is important,
adaption for students who need extra help and additions for students needing an
extra challenges.
3. lesson assessment : the relationship between the assessment and the lesson
objective.
4. make it relevant : the materials should include sort of real world
application.
5. practice presenting : By creating a script, it can help a lot.
The stages of lesson planning:
1. opening/beginning stage : Firstly, in planning lesson plan teachers must
choose what to teach. Thinking about the materials would like to present to the
students.
2. middle stage : Secondly, teachers must organize the lesson materials in a
systematic way. Teachers should prepare the teaching materials that ordered
logically and provide chances for students to attempt the use of the language
and give them feedback to help them using it.
3. closing/end stage :Thirdly, teachers assess the students to make sure that
students have achieved the learning objectives or not. So, students should
recall and practice the lesson they learn. It is also called post-activities
where teacher wraps or sums up what the lesson is all about ended by the
assessment activities.
4. lesson plan format : Last, every institution has its own format. Although
there are many kinds of lesson plan format available but it has most similar
characteristics. The format should consists of administrative information, such
name of the course, teacher, and number of students, date, or time. It also has
goals and objectives, procedure of teaching and time allocation, materials
needed and the assessment techniques. The term is that, there is no right or
wrong in developing the lesson plan.

Dear Ibu and Bapak,
1. Before teachers plan the lesson, they will need to be familiarizing
themselves with several components to have a successful lesson plan.
Considering the lesson plan as detailed description, Brown (2007) suggests six
components:
a. Goal (s)
Goal refer to knowledge, skills, and values learners should develop that
teachers will attempt to accomplish by the end of the class period
b. Objectives
Objectives are different from the goal. An objective is a description of a
performance that teachers want from learners to be able to exhibit before
considering them as competent. The objectives are specified, teaching
materials, procedures, and assessment can be planned, therefore it is very
important to state the objectives explicitly
c. Materials and equipment
Stating the materials and equipment functions as a “checklist” that will remind
teachers about things that are needed to take along to the class. Materials and
equipment is defined as resources and materials needed to carry out a lesson.
d. Procedure
It consists of the lesson’s content and delivery. Content should be listed,
detailed, and sequenced in a logical order.
e. Evaluation
This component reflects on what activities worked or did not work, as well as
how the lesson could be improved or modified the next time around. Assessments
are used to find what students already know and can do, provide data for
teachers to drive future instruction, and provide feedback to students on what
they have learned.
f. Extra-class work
The extra -class works give students opportunity to understand more the
materials. It can be in the form of homework. There are some purposes of giving
extra-class works, for instance, make students review the materials have been
studied during the class hour, make them more independent and discipline at the
same time.
2. Some important points as a guideline before developing a lesson planning
a. Assess your students' needs. Understanding what your students need to be
successful in class can help you plan more effective lessons. Use the results
from closure activities to determine whether you can move forward or need to
spend more time re-teaching certain content to your students.
b. Keep a log. Try keeping a log of each day's plans and explain whether the
plan was effective. You can write what went well and what didn't, so you know
how to improve that lesson in the future. You can also use it to learn what
strategies have helped your students, so you can plan similar lessons.
c. Practice previously taught material. You can strengthen students' knowledge
by reviewing past content in your plans. You can begin some lessons with
worksheets on past skills to let them review and master previously learned
materials before moving on to more complex skills.
d. Have a backup plan. It's useful to have alternative lessons in case an
emergency comes up, and you have to leave, or you realize that you or the
students don't have all the required materials.
3. The stage of lesson planning
a. Opening/beginning stage
The first step is choosing what to teach, for example we want to teach
narrative text, we have to know its language features or its text structures.
Brown 2007 suggests how to begin planning a lesson in sequence, determine what
the topic and purpose of the lesson will be, draft our perhaps one to three
explicitly stated terminal objectives, work on teaching materials, draft our
skeletal outline of what your lesson will look like, plan step-by-step
procedures for carrying out all the steps
b. Middle stage
In this stage, teacher should organize the lesson materials systematically.
Brown 2007, suggests several aspects that need consideration, variety,
sequencing, pacing and timing, estimating difficulty, individual differences,
student talk and teacher talk, and adapting and established curriculum.
c. Closing/ End stage
The closing stage is the stage where students should recall and practice the
lesson they learn. This stage always called by post activities where teacher
wraps or sums up what the lesson is all about, ended by assessment activities.
To formulate a good technique in this stage, please always refer stated
objective.
Thank you,

5 Components a Lesson Plan Should Include
1. Topic and Point of the Lesson
Lesson topic or language point if teaching English as Second Language students
is the first thing that should be on the lesson plan. It shows the main topic
of what will be taught in class. Lesson topics should be short and clear; for
example, “Use of past tenses.” This will be enough to show that this class is
about teaching students to use past tenses. We can break it down more if the
topic takes up to multiple classes to teach, for example, “Use of past tenses
part 1.” The lesson topic comes first on the lesson plan because it helps the
teacher to keep track of what to teach, especially if one teacher teaches
multiple classes.
2. Objectives
The class objective is the most important thing in the lesson plan. The
objectives should be the focus of each lesson. It is what does the teacher
wants the students to be able to do by the end of the lesson. Using the example
above, in an English class that will be teaching about past tenses. The class
objective can be as follow; “By the end of the lesson, students will be able to
use past tenses to write simple sentences about what they have done yesterday.”
Class objectives help ensure that teachers stay on the topic and cover the
relevant material during the class and helps students to understand what they
should be able to do by the end of the class.
3. Lesson Sequence
The procedure is the step-by-step guide for the lesson. It should show the
progress of the lesson. This means it tells what should be taught first and
what should be taught second accordingly till the last activity of the lesson.
Using the same topic as above with ESA methodology, a simple procedure may be
as follow. First, get students to think in English about what they like to do.
Second, ask students questions like what they ate yesterday. Third, filling the
blank activity about student’s dinner yesterday. By looking at the procedure of
the lesson plan, the teacher should be able to know what to do at each stage of
the class.
4. Time Management
Time management is very important in the lesson plan since teachers have
limited time to cover the materials. The teacher must plan their class time
carefully, so they don’t run out of time or finish the class too early. For
example, a 50-minutes ESL class using ESA methodology can be arranged as
follow. 10 minutes on the engage phase, 20 minutes on the study phase, and 20
minutes on the activate phase. It can be broken down into more if necessary.
5. Practice
Practices are mainly used to check if students understood the topic, and help
students memorize what they have learned during the class. Teachers usually
have practiced for students every class. So, it is important to put this on the
lesson plan to gets carried out at the right time.
This guide will help you construct successful lesson plans. First, we'll review
some effective strategies and techniques. Since there are many factors to
consider when planning a class, this chapter is broken down into six different
sections. If you are reading this for the first time, is useful to look at all
six sections, as each one builds off the one before. In the future, you may
decide to only reference the section that serves your immediate purposes.
Guidelines for planning an effective class are:
Using Goals to Shape a Lesson
Planning Transitions
Planning Introductions
Planning Conclusions
Planning Classroom Discussions
Creating Write to Learn Activities
Planning Group Activities
Reflecting on Lessons

How This Guide Can Help
This guide will help you construct successful lesson plans. First, we'll review
some effective strategies and techniques. Since there are many factors to
consider when planning a class, this chapter is broken down into six different
sections. If you are reading this for the first time, is useful to look at all
six sections, as each one builds off the one before. In the future, you may
decide to only reference the section that serves your immediate purposes.
Sample Outline of Lesson Plan with Transitions, Introduction, and a Conclusion
The three goals for this lesson:
1. Discussing and Practicing Critical Reading
2. Exploring How Purpose, Audience, and Context Influence a Writer's Choices
3. Facilitating More Meaningful Discussions
Introduction: Last time we discussed the ways context influences the choices a
writer makes. Today we'll keep that in mind as we analyze the context for the
essay you just read. Since our context is different from the one the writer
intended, we'll spend a few minutes discussing your responses to the essay.
Then, we'll focus on critical reading because this will help you accurately
represent an author's ideas in the summary part of your essay. It will prepare
you for the analytical writing we do in units two and three and it will also
assist you in gaining the most from texts encountered beyond COCC150.
Activities and Transitions:
1. Analyze the context of a text (10 minutes)
Transition: Now that we understand the context for this essay, let's think
about it in the context of our classroom. We are not the audience this writer
had in mind, so our reactions may be different. What were some of your
reactions to the ideas in this essay?
2. Discuss students' reactions to a text (10 minutes)
Transition: It's useful to react informally to the ideas in a text but when you
write a response for an academic audience, you'll need to show that you've read
the text critically first before sharing your views. So, let's practice
critical reading for the last thirty minutes of class.
3. Practice critical reading of a text (30 minutes)
Conclusion: Today we reviewed the ways context influences the choices a writer
makes. We also shared some of our responses to the essay and practiced critical
reading strategies to help you write an accurate summary for essay one. Next
time we'll focus on writing a response and consider the choices you'll have to
make when drafting your own writing.

A lesson plan can be defined as a detailed description of an instructor’s
course for an individual lesson intended to help learners achieve a particular
learning objective (Soepriyatna, 2017)
Several components of lesson plan can be described as follow:
1. Goals. Goals refer to the knowledge, skills, and values that students should
develop and acquire by the end of the class hour.
2. Objectives. An objective is a description of the performance that
teachers want students to be able to display before they are deemed competent.
Robert Mager proposed ABCD model that consists of 4 elements, namely
Audience-Behavior-Condition-Degree. Therefore, objectives can be observable
performance and behavior. This makes it possible to assess the goal's success
or failure.
3. Materials and equipment. Materials and equipment is defined as resources
and materials to carry out a lesson.
4. Procedure. It consists of the instruction's subject matter and delivery.
What do I want the learners to know or be able to do is the question that
content answers. It is important to first identify what will be taught and what
the students will learn before describing this component in detail and
specificity.
5. Evaluation. Evaluation are used to find out what students already know
and can do, provide data for teachers for the next instruction, give feedback
to students on what they have learned.
6. Extra-class work. Homework or other outside-of-class assignments might help students retain information after class. Extracurricular assignments should be required for several reasons, one of which is that they assist students develop their independence and self-discipline.
Before developing a lesson plan, there are some important points as a
guideline. A lesson plan describes the learning objectives, develops teaching
and learning activities to achieve the objectives, maps out the material of the
session, and designs assessments to see if the objectives are achieved.
The stages of lesson planning:
1. Opening/beginning Stage. This step include knowing what to teach,
knowing classroom situation, and formulating goals and objectives of the course.
2. Middle Stage. The teacher should systematically arrange the
instructional materials. The teacher should create instructional materials that
are logically ordered, provide opportunity for the students to practice the
language, and then offer feedback to help with their usage.
3. Closing/End Stage. The teacher wraps up or summarizes the lesson during this phase, also referred to as post-activities, before going on to evaluation activities. The goal of the lesson is to get students thinking. When creating a solid approach at this point, we should keep the stated aim in mind.

There are five components of a lesson plan, Goal (s), Objectives, Materials
& Equipment, Procedures, Evaluation and Extra-class work. I want to
describe more about how to develop Goal (s). Goals refer to knowledge, skills,
and values learners should create that teachers will attempt to accomplish by
the end of the class period. Goals are the general intention of change a
learner should perform and are not specific enough to be measured. So to
develop a goal, teachers should think about the general purpose of their
lessons to help students achieve. However, it is not as specific as an aim.
There are there important points taken as a guideline, 1. An opening statement
or activity as a warm-up
2. A set of activities and techniques, and 3. Closure.
In an opening, a teacher should consider how the lesson begins and how to
activate students' prior knowledge; it is supposed to be a 5-10 minute
activity. Talking about the set of activities and techniques obtains the stages
to deliver the information while the students have their tasks to do some
activities. In the closure, it should be back to and support objectives. These
include specific instructional techniques such as demonstration, pair shares,
pre-scripted questions, problems for students to solve or tasks to work on. We
should summarize the lesson and, if appropriate, provide a transition to the
next lesson. The closure should take about 5-7 minutes.
And finally, the stages of lesson planning have three stages:
Opening/Beginning, Middle and End.
The opening, there are some aspects to consider:
1. Choosing what to teach:
2. Materials/ topic to be presented; Reading texts; Language components,
3. Mastering the content of the topic,
4. Predicting what areas cause problems for the students.
5. Knowing classroom situation: who the students are, their personality,
background knowledge, and curriculum.
The middle stage is to prepare the teaching materials that are ordered
logically.
Provides opportunities for the students to attempt to use the language and then
gives them feedback to help them use it.
And in the end, this stage is the time for the students to gather
information while doing the activities and where they should recall and
practice the lesson they learn or whether they have achieved the learning
objectives.
This stage is sometimes called post-activities, where the teacher wraps or sums
up what the lesson is all about, ending with assessment activities.

a. Several parts of a lesson plan and how to put it together.
1. Have a goal in mind. The teacher needs to figure out how to reach the goal
based on the number of classes, the amount of time spent in each class, the
balance between academic and extracurricular activities, and many other things.
2. Do a good job with time limits. No matter what kind of school they plan for,
this is a big part of how they plan their lessons.
3. Do not forget about the anticipation set. To make it, the teacher needs to
decide which things are most important based on the time they have and the
goals they want to reach.
4. Practice new ideas with much help from the teacher. Several ideas can be
expanded upon:
1) Class discussion with note-taking in a journal or on a worksheet.
2) Another small game, maybe a round of the game used in the anticipatory set.
The good thing about this is that it makes a point of the anticipatory set and
makes the lesson clear.
3) A craft that emphasizes the points students need to learn or the theme they
are studying,
4) A science experiment that physically shows a point, and
5) A video that reinforces what they just learned.
6) Effective review/ testing.
b. Before making a lesson plan, here are some essential things to remember.
1. Learn about the students' backgrounds, skills, interest levels, attention
spans, etc.
2. Know what will be taught or what will be taught.
3. Know what resources are out there to help you teach well.
c. The steps of making a lesson plan.
1. Content: List the most important facts, ideas, skills, and vocabulary words
that must be covered.
2. Goals are what the teacher wants the students to get out of the lesson.
Identify the goals the students will reach through the tasks that will get them
involved in the learning process.
3. Materials: This is a list of the things that will be needed.
4. Introduction: Describe or list an event or thing that will get the student's
attention, make them want to pay attention, and learn what the teacher will
teach.
5. Development: A description of how the teacher plans to show or explain what
the students should do.
6. Practice: A list or description of how the teacher gives the students
chances to try out what they want to learn.
7. Independent Practice: Make a list or describe ways to give students chances
to finish assignments so you can track their progress toward the lesson's goal.
8. Accommodations: List or explain the different steps based on the student's
needs.

Before we discuss the components of a lesson plan. We need to know what
the lesson plan is. It is a detailed description of an instructor’s course for
an individual lesson intended to help learners achieve a particular learning
objective (Soepriyatna, 2019). According to Brown (Dr. Soepriyatna, 2019)
lesson plan consists of six components. They are 1) goals,2) Objectives, 3)
Materials and Equipment, 4) Procedures, 5) Evaluation, and 6) extra-Class Work.
Some teachers may develop their lesson plans, but six components of the lesson
plan always exist. Let’s discuss the way to develop each component:
Goal
The goal is not detailed enough to be quantified; rather, it is the overall
objective of the change that a learner should make. The knowledge, skills, and
values that students should acquire are referred to as goals that teachers will
work to achieve by the end of the class hour. For Example, the students can
develop their ability to write descriptive text.
Objective
The objective is always compared with goals. An objective is a description of
the behavior that a learner must be able to display before a teacher can
consider them competent. Good objectives must have three essential components:
Performance, condition, and criteria.
Material and equipment
Material and equipment are resources and materials needed to carry out a
lesson. A list of supplies and equipment that significantly improves pupils'
learning should be made available by the teacher.
Procedure
The procedure consists of the lesson content and delivery. The content should
be listed, detailed, and sequenced in a logical order. Content includes facts,
data, information, formulae, concepts, skills, knowledge, attitude, and or
learning. The other sub-component of the procedure is classroom activities.
Classroom activities can be structured as 1). an opening statement or activity
as a warm-up. 2) a set of activities and techniques. 3). Closure.
Evaluation
This part should provide information about the assessment or the evaluation
that will be done by the teacher.
Extra-Class Work
Extra-Class Works in the form of homework or assignment function as an
enrichment and reinforcement.
As guidance, a lesson plan should specify learning objectives, formulate
teaching-learning activities to achieve the objectives, map for organizing the
content of the lesson and design the objectives to check if the intended
objectives are achieved. There are three stages of the lesson plan. They are
the opening, Middle stage, and closing/ end stages.

A lesson plan is a comprehensive outline of a teacher's course for a
specific lesson meant to aid students in completing a particular learning
course. A lesson plan is made up of six parts: goals, objectives, materials and
equipment, procedure, evaluation, and extra class.
The teacher will try to complete goals by the end of the class. Goals are
knowledge, skills, and values that students should develop. Teachers should
determine the student's needs to set goals. Teachers must be aware of the
knowledge and skills that their pupils will have acquired by the end of the
lesson. Consequently, the learning process can align with the objectives.
A goal is a broad assertion about a subject or lesson, but an objective is more
detailed. A competence that the teachers want students to be able to
demonstrate before they are taken into consideration as competent. To develop
the objectives, teachers should specify the competencies students need to achieve.
Teachers should make sure that the objectives and materials are suitable.
Therefore, the objectives can be measured if it is a success or not.
A lesson plan should include materials and equipment. a checklist that teachers
were required to bring to the class that listed the materials and equipment.
Materials and equipment can be found in the form of worksheets, books,
articles, websites, and digital media. To develop materials and equipment,
teachers should make a list of materials and tools that can help him/her teach
the students.
the contents and delivery of the lesson make up the procedure. outline how
pupils will be educated and what they will learn during the procedure. Each
action that the pupils completed must be specifically and in-depth reported.
The course material ought to be listed and organized logically.
When the course is over, the teacher does an evaluation. This section reflects
on the activities that worked or didn't work, as well as how the lesson could
be changed or improved the next time.
Extra classwork, such as homework or assignments, can help students retain
information following the lesson. This type of after-school activity offers
chances to reinforce material gained in class.
the most crucial point as a guideline before developing a lesson plan is to
make the lesson plan clear and organized. Therefore, it will help us as a
teacher as our "google map". a clear and organized lesson plan can
lead us on a right track.
there are three stages of lesson planning
opening/beginning stage
the teacher tries to find out what to teach and whom to teach
middle stage
the teacher organizes the lesson materials
closing/end stage
students recall and practice what they have been learning

According to brown in soepriyatna (2019) there are six component to consider
lesson plan. 1, goal, 2. Objectives, 3. Material and equipment, 4. Procedures,
5. Evaluation, 6. Extra class work.
-Goal
Sometime interchangeably used with aims, are usually determined goal will
motivate learners to pursue it.
-objective
Goals are always compared with objective but objective are different from the
goal. An objective is a description of a performance that teachers want from
learners to be able to exhibit before considering them as competent.
-material equipment
Material equipment is defined as resources and materials needed to carry out a
lesson then lesson plan should also include specific resources used for

-some important points as a guideline before developing a lesson planning
Before developing a lesson plan the educator has to choose what to teach,
student practicing what they have learned, understanding student background,
knowing situation of the class, preparing teaching aids and material, student
recalling information then the last is organizing information of what to learn.
- The stages of lesson planning
OPENING
The first step in lesson plan is choosing what to teach. Realizing that it is
the material that will be presented to our student. Knowing the topic is the
most importantly mastering the content of the topic, predicting what area cause
problems for the student.
MIDDLE STAGE
Teacher should organize the lesson materials in a systematic way. The teacher
should use middle stage to prepare teaching material. Middle stage will make
the student to gather some information while doing the activities.
CLOSING

lessonthey learn.

A lesson plan is a written description of the skills students will acquire
in a lesson, how the teacher wants to teach it, and how they will be evaluated
on their comprehension of the material. Lesson plans can make teachers better
prepared to instruct their pupils. Because they take the time to design classes
beforehand, they might also make educators more effective. The majority of
lesson plans have several elements that aid teachers in organizing the various
steps, from preparation to class completion.
The following six elements are frequently present in lesson plans and can be
used when creating our own lessons:
1. Objective, one of the most crucial elements of a lesson plan is the purpose
of the lesson. The lesson's objectives specify what the students will learn and
how their learning will be evaluated. On the day of the lesson, you can write
the aim on the board once you've written it in the lesson plan. In order for
pupils to understand the aim they are working toward, teachers typically review
objectives with them each day and revise them as needed.
2. Materials, to concentrate on teaching if we prepare the materials before the
class. Creating bullet points for any material you and the students could need
during the session is one way to format the content section of a lesson plan.
3. Background knowledge, engaging your students' prior understanding of a
subject is a useful technique to introduce most lectures. In order to aid
students in making new connections with a topic throughout the class,
background knowledge concentrates on their earlier experiences or knowledge on
the subject.
4. Direct Instruction, the section of the lesson that we employ to teach the
class the skills they will acquire is known as direct instruction. Before going
on to guided practice, this can be done by outlining the task, utilizing
students' prior knowledge, having them take notes on the new information,
reading from the textbook, or simply demonstrating how to perform the
assignment.
5. Guided teaching, including the skill can be shown for learners, practiced in
groups, and then completed independently.
6. Closure and Assessment, one of the last parts of a lesson plan is the
conclusion. Students can evaluate their understanding of what they have
studied, analyze and summarize what they have learnt for the day's lesson, and
let the teacher know whether they have achieved the lesson's goal.
Some important points as a guideline before developing a lesson planning, those
are:
1. Outline learning objectives, this phase will have we ready to manage class
time and complete the more significant learning objectives.
2. Develop the introduction, it creates a fascinating introduction to the
subject to pique curiosity and promote thought. To get pupils interested, you
can employ a variety of strategies.
3. Plan the specific learning activities, plan ahead for lengthy explanations
or discussions, but also be ready to shift swiftly to other applications or
issues and to think of ways to ensure comprehension.
4. Plan to check for understanding, consider which questions will be useful for
discussion and which ones might divert the class as you arrange your session.
Consider and choose how to strike a balance between teaching the material
(achieving your learning objectives) and making sure the students understand.
5. Develop conclusion and preview, this preview will pique students' curiosity
and aid them in making connections between the various concepts within a wider
context.
6. Create a realistic timeline, a reasonable timeline will demonstrate your
adaptability and capacity to fit into the particular teaching atmosphere.
The stages of lesson planning:
1. Introduction, the pupils are motivated and interested at this point. This
stage, which occurs before the class begins, focuses on introductions, a
lead-in or warm-up, a review, setting up the class, and presenting the learning
objectives. This portion should only take 5 to 10 minutes, regardless of the
lesson's given duration.
2. Development, the process's most student-focused phase is this one. The
exercises at this level provide students the chance to participate and put what
they have learned into practice while still presenting the material.
3. Consolidation, The term "Independent practice" refers to this
stage. It offers students the chance to put their recently acquired knowledge
and abilities to use. It concentrates on a practical application and gives
students the chance to ask questions and get answers.
4. Conclusion, for assessing understanding, a quick summary or overview is
frequently helpful. The students should also be able to show that they have accomplished
the goals. Giving pupils performance comments is another opportunity during the
close phase.
