In this unit about lesson planning I learned that depending on the teacher there are different styles and approaches to creating lesson plans. Some teachers are of the school of thought that lesson planning is too teacher-centered and isn't flexible or versatile enough. While an experienced teacher would be better equipped to teach a class "on-the-fly" an inexperienced teacher might find this difficult so lesson planning an outline for the class would be advantageous. I personally think that a combination of outlining a general plan for the day while allowing room for free-flowing within the activity blocks is a happy medium. It helps to write down what you expect the students to learn by the end of the lesson which is the teacher's way of setting a clear goal for the students. It helps to think of the lesson plan beforehand so it can be referred to if needed, however if the students are highly engaged in a particular segment then it may be appropriate to extend the activity and push other activities back in the schedule. Creating lesson plans also serves as a written record of previous classes.
