FOREIGN LANGUAGE LESSON DESIGN

[ADAPTATION OF A.U. LESSON PLAN FORMAT]



NAME ___________________________________ DATE _____________
 

CLASS___________________________________
 

THEME: Overriding topic, "big picture", what you and your students will be working on for a longer period of time.
 

I. OBJECTIVES:

Identify what you want the students to achieve by the end of the class period/lesson. It is helpful to write the objectives in terms of observable behavior (i.e., use action verbs. "Learn", "understand", "know" are too vague.)
 

II. STANDARDS ADDRESSED (from National or Ohio):
 

III. STRATEGIES & PROCEDURES:

A. INTRODUCTION How you plan to introduce the topic, motivate students, review prerequisite skills. Connect to previous lesson, preview new lesson.

B. DEVELOPMENT/ACTIVITY

This is the main part of your lesson. The instruction and participation will vary greatly according to your objectives. e.g., a grammar lesson will involve four parts: P A C E (S&G, p. 157); a reading or listening lesson will have six parts(guidelines presented in class), etc.

C. CLOSURE/CONCLUSION/SUMMARY

Ask what students have learned, preview future lessons.
 

IV. ASSESSMENT: How will you determine if the objectives were met? e.g. teacher observation, questions, test, student reflection and response, activity, writing, independent practice, demonstration.
 

V. MATERIALS: Make a list of materials needed to carry out the lesson.
 

[VII. FOLLOW-UP]
 

[VIII. TEACHER REFLECTION/SELF-EVALUATION ON LESSON EFFECTIVENESS] Did I achieve my lesson objectives? How do I know? What worked especially well and why? What would I change if I were to teach this lesson again?
