    Hi there, I am starting the PDGE in Trinity this year (taking English as my major subject and religion as my minor). I am starting my teaching practice this week so have to start lesson plans. I was given a lesson plan template from Trinity but I am unsure exactly how to do it, how detailed should it be etc.

    if there is past pupil from the same course I would really appreciate some guidance or advice. If I could just get my hands on one copy of a lesson plan I would be delighted as I could use it as a guide.

    if you think you can help please reply. Thanks so much.

    also I am looking for any second hand books to buy for this course.

    help... im freaking out :eek:

    AIM(S) OF THE LESSON : a general statement of intent – normally one aim is adequate for a lesson


    OBJECTIVES (behavioural and/or non-behavioural) Learner centered: what you expect the students to have achieved by the end of the lesson as a result of your instruction. At the end of the lesson students will….. Is there coherence between the lesson objectives, teaching methods, content and assessment?


    STATEMENT OF CONTENT AND SKILLS Briefly outline the content/knowledge/concepts/principles/skills to be taught. Is the content and skills appropriate to the objectives and the ability of the students? What approaches will you take to promoting students’ competence in literacy and numeracy?


    CLASSROOM ORGANISATION Individual/paired/group/whole class Implications for differentiation


    ASSESSMENT Briefly outline how student learning will be assessed (in relation to the lesson objectives) Creating an appropriate balance between Assessment of Learning and Assessment for Learning


    RESOURCES Briefly outline the resources to be used by teacher and/or students. Have the teaching materials been selected for their appropriateness and motivational value? Have I made provision for as wide a range of resources as possible?

    ok, what do you plan to teach? The plan looks scarier than it is. Eg resources, textbook PowerPoint etc.
