Unit 9 talks about lesson planning.
In the beginning of the unit, good reasons for and advantages of the writing of lesson plans are given. It continues with basic principles for lesson planning and criteria of being organized before class starts. Important parts a lesson plan should include follow. When a teacher gets more experienced, he/she will probably shorten his/her notes, but in the beginning a more detailed lesson plan is very helpful. Another useful tool to improve one’s teaching skills is the self evaluation form which helps to reflect on a lesson after it has been taught. When it comes to planning a sequence of lessons, there are many similarities to the planning of a single lesson, but special attention must be paid to remaining flexible, building goals for the students, regular revision of lesson contents, and teaching skills in a balanced way using a good variety of activities.
I’ve realised how useful it is to do lesson planning and what I have to think of when I prepare. I expect to get more fluent in preparing the more I practise it.
