What it is

A lesson plan sets out what students should learn in one lesson and how the time is spent. This board runs from the learning goal through a warm-up, the main activity and practice to an exit ticket, a short question at the end that shows what students took away.

When to use it

  • When you plan a single lesson or a workshop session
  • To share a plan with a co-teacher or a substitute
  • To reuse a lesson next year and change only the parts that did not work

How to run it

  1. 01

    Write the learning goal

    One sentence that starts with a verb and says what students can do by the end, like "Explain evaporation".

  2. 02

    Time each stage

    Add the minutes to each frame title and check they add up to the length of the lesson.

  3. 03

    Plan the activities

    Add a note per activity and list the materials you need on the same note.

  4. 04

    End with an exit ticket

    Ask one question students answer before they leave. Their answers tell you where to start next time.
