INTRODUCTION

Welcome to: “Creating Lesson Plans.”

One of the most important parts of teaching is being prepared and this includes lesson planning. Whether you are one who plans a year in advance with a detailed scope and sequence or one who plans a week at a time, having a plan helps keep teaching deliberate and focused on what the children’s needs and interests. With a few simple steps and the right resources, you can be intentional in your planning,
while offering purposeful learning opportunities.

MINDSET

There are many ways to go about writing lesson plans, and chances are that any teacher will try out a few different approaches before settling on one. Lesson planning can be timing consuming, so finding an approach that works for you is important. Children’s education depends on good lesson plans with excellent execution.

Thoughtfully curated lesson plans will ensure children have fun learning in developmentally appropriate ways, all while hitting benchmarks to prepare them for life.
