Session 17: Lesson Planning: Implementation Plan

50 minutes

lesson planning

Purpose

In this session, participants will create a plan for how to teach their lesson during a 40 minute TLO session. This plan should consider contingency plans if the lesson goes faster than expected, and consideration for how the teaching group will use formative assessment throughout the lesson to know that "learners" are making the needed progress toward the learning goals.

Objectives

  • Participants have developed a run-of-show and tech plan for their lesson.
  • Participants have developed contingency plans for short extensions or questions for deeper thinking if their lesson goes more quickly than anticipated.
  • Participants have a plan for formative assessment during the lesson.
  • Participants make sure everyone in the teaching group has a role.

Supplies & Prep

Room Setup:

  • Normal breakout room set up
  • Everyone is sitting at a table with their lesson planning group

Remarks

You have 50 minutes today to create a detailed agenda for teaching your lesson. In this agenda, you should consider how you will formatively assess at different points in the lesson and brainstorm plans for your teaching group to effectively manage the lesson if it ends up running shorter or longer than planned.

Using slides, review the outline of TLO process

  • When they will teach their lesson during the week
  • Your group will have 40 minutes to deliver the lesson
    • Note: each lesson is written for a 45 minute block of time. We expect with adult learners, the lesson should fit within 40 minutes.
  • After the lesson, “learners” start a reflection while the teaching group finalizes their Choices, Advice, and Take-aways to share with the room when directed to by the facilitator. The teaching group then joins the whole group for the debrief.
  • Remind participants of resources:
    • Lesson Tips (Activity Packet Pages 15- 19)
    • The slides linked in the curriculum
  • Remind participants of goals:
    • Try a new teaching practice
    • Take intentional actions to build an inclusive classroom culture
    • Everyone needs to have an equal role in the teaching of the lesson. Be aware that sometimes the most engaging lessons might not have much for teachers to do besides actively engage learners in the lesson and formatively assess through listening to peer interactions. That is okay!
  • The rest of the time is dedicated to preparing the lesson - use steps 2-5 in the Activity Guide Packet to help you do this.

Prepare the lesson (48 minutes)

Facilitator Tip

NOTE: You and your co-facilitator should both be very active during this entire session. Successful “Lesson Planning Sessions” will make smoother sailing for the 8 hours spent in TLO. Things you both should do during this session:

  • Watch out for conflicts between participants in a teaching group
  • Ask participants to walk you through their plan in detail (ex. “How does the lesson start? Who will be doing that? What will learners be doing during that time? When is the first time you formatively assess? What information are you trying to glean at that point?” etc.)
  • Watch for groups who want to “go rogue” and do their own lesson instead of what is in the lesson plan. To intervene, it can be helpful to remind them
    • A) It is their responsibility to show participants what is in the lesson
    • B) They will be able to share their choices, advice, and takeaways at the end of the lesson.

Participants should work in their lesson groups to design a 40 minute TLO lesson. As they plan, they should be filling in Steps 2, 3, 4, and 5 on pages 21 - 24 of their Activity Packet.
