ELEMENTS
OF LESSON DESIGN| Instructional Objective: What is it that you want the
learner to be able to do or know by the end of the lesson? What is the
rationale for selecting this objective? For students with IEP's: Does
this objective relate to the IEP goals?
Task Analysis: What are the prerequisite or composite skills or concepts needed in order for the student to be able to achieve the desired instructional outcome? At what level of difficulty will you modify instruction to meet all learners' needs? Instructional Aides: What materials, supplies, equipment, etc. will you need or use to enhance instruction and/or appeal to a variety of learning styles? (visual, auditory, tactile, etc.) Classroom Management: What will you need to think through in order to have a smooth flow of instruction with minimal disruption? (seating arrangement, transitions, student special needs, rules, time, etc.) If you are team teaching - What is everyone's responsibility for lesson implementation? Can you interrupt each other or not, etc.? |
| Instructional Input: What critical and essential information
will the students need to know and how will you present or organize instruction
so that students gain this information?
Modeling: Will students need to see a product or process in order to achieve the instructional objective? Check for Understanding:
Guided Practice: What activities will the student do with your presence to practice or work toward the desired learning outcome? What will you do to mentor or monitor while students practice? Closure: How will you end the lesson? Review, reprocess, and debrief. |

Checking for Understanding/Final Assessment:
Independent Practice: Once students can perform without major errors, discomfort or confusion, what assignments will you give for students to practice "on their own" to maintain what has been learned? |
