Inclusive Lesson Plans throughout The year


Good teachers plan. Just as architects use blueprints, doctors and dentists use x-rays, and pilots use flight plans, effective teachers organize for instruction. They think about what they want to teach, how they want to teach it, and when they will teach it. Implementing effective instruction requires forethought, time, and knowledge of children.

Generally, early childhood teachers develop lesson plans using topics that relate to the month or season of the year. These topics focus on things that children encounter in their daily lives and that they find interesting. For example, studying the changes in trees and leaves in fall develops the children's curiosity about their environment. Making Valentine's cards in February relates to typical activities on Valentine's Day, thus enhancing children's social knowledge. Learning about snow is best achieved when the first snowfall occurs. Having a lesson plan ready facilitates teachers' abilities to teach children about seasonal and everyday phenomena.

What Is Lesson Planning?
What does lesson planning mean? Basically, six components are essential for each lesson plan.
1. Objective(s) (what you want to teach)
2. Materials needed for the lesson
3. The lesson activity (or activities)
4. Review of the content (sometimes referred to as closure)
5. Assessment strategy (to determine what children learned from the lesson)
6. Curriculum extensions (multiple extensions of a lesson that connect the concept to other curricular areas)

Planning ensures that each component is included in the lesson. Writing objectives for every lesson shows teachers' understanding that good planning yields results. When a lesson is well planned with a specific objective (or objectives) in mind, then teachers are better able to demonstrate observable outcomes. In addition, if lessons aren't going well, teachers can notice the problems and adjust accordingly. They might modify the activity, spontaneously choose another activity, or they might abandon the lesson, choosing to teach it at a later date. Planning follow-up activities in various centers is also easier if the learning objective(s) is clear.
