This Lesson Plan template is designed with all the categories necessary for an outstanding lesson. This template can be applied to all subjects. File types include: - Microsoft Word - Microsoft Publisher - Microsoft PowerPoint - PDF (print and hand write lesson plan) The document is divided into various ‘bubbles’, each coloured to attract your attention to keep you on track with your lesson. Areas within template include; PAGE 1 - Teacher name - Subject / Group - Focus - Lesson Duration. - Learning Objectives - Planning with Bloom and the Big 4. - Through the door / Starter activity bubble. - Main body activity space. - Closing activity space. - A handy ‘Quick Glance’ space (Write keywords to keep you on track). - ‘Pay particular attention to ……. students’ section. - ‘Motivational triggers checklist’ (Rapport/Competency/Curiosity/Relevance/Challenge/Choice) - Prompts for teaching strategies. Use the box next to the tick list to write how you will use this strategy within your lesson. Bubbles to write examples of literacy and feedback use within the lesson. PAGE 2 Class information: Number of total students / Number of boys vs girls Class name e.g. ‘Art – 9b – Wed P1+2’ Seating plan – Move the boxes to the configuration of your classroom. o Next to each student’s name, write their target grades and state if they have any areas you need to pay attention too, e.g. PP, SEN Etc. This helps you move your class round to suit the needs of your learners. Differentiation table: o Content o Process o Outcome o Learning material o Ways of learning o Demonstrating learning I use this lesson plan template within all of my lessons. I found it incredibly helpful when I started my teaching journey as it helped me differentiate my lessons in multiple different ways, think about literacy and feedback within each lesson and it gave me ideas on how to use different teaching strategies within each lesson, for example; ‘Help stations’, ‘Inspiration stations’, ‘Hot seating’ etc. The ‘QUICK GLACE’ and ‘PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO:’ section is very helpful. If you just need a quick refresher on where you’re up to in your lesson, you can check that here with just a keyword: ‘Demonstration’, ‘Review text’, ‘Questions page 6’ etc. You can write the names of particular student who either need additional support or who may be of concern. This section is also very helpful for those covering your class who may not know these particular learners. It is recommended that you give detailed information in the various sections to help ensure your lesson runs smoothly. If another member of staff takes your lesson, it will be very easy for them to work out where your class is within the syllabus and what to do within your lesson. Additional classroom layouts have also been provided on the second page for ease of editing. It is recommended that this file is printed ‘back to back’.

This resource can either be displayed on a large smart board or printed large and placed somewhere visible in a classroom. This resource encourages students to talk to one another and discuss either their work or solve a problem. Rather than the student’s shouting out or asking the teacher questions directly, they would; 1st) Brain (think to themselves - reflect) 2nd) Book (research via a book or the internet) 3rd) Buddy (ask a nearby peer for help - these discussions can be opened up to the table/group) Only until these steps have been completed can the teacher be asked. This resource can be implemented in all classes. I use this resource in my GCSE Art and Design classes and the students are encouraged to peer teach by discussing and demonstrating to one another.

A simple to follow, fill in the blank lesson plan template for cover staff and supply teachers. This document can be applied to all subjects. This document is available in the following formats: Microsoft Word Microsoft Powerpoint PDF The document is divided into various ‘bubbles’, each coloured to attract your attention to keep you on track with your lesson. Areas within this document include: PAGE 1: ‘Teacher name / subject / group / focus / lesson duration’. ‘Learning objectives’ ‘Please read aloud to class’ bubble. ‘Items needed for this lesson’ bubble. ‘Pay particular attention to:’ bubble. ‘Note for cover staff’. ‘Through the door activity’. ‘Main body activity’ bubbles’. ‘Closing activity’ bubble. PAGE 2: Class information (No. of students) Seating plan Bubble for staff feedback As a former cover supervisor and supply teacher, I found it quite frustrating when cover lesson notes either were not detailed enough, difficult to follow or simply did not exist. With this document, lesson instructions are easy to follow, staff are made aware of particular students and seating arrangements and an open dialogue between staff members about their lessons can be maintained. Cover staff can also inform the normal staff member about any particular incidents, where the class got up to, or if they had any other feedback. Within each activity bubble, simply write the activity name, duration and a brief description. Within the ‘Pay particular attention to’ section, write the names of students who can be a distraction to others or those who may need additional support. On the second page, a seating chart can be edited to show the layout of your classroom. Move the boxes which represent tables and fill them in with student information. E.g, Sam - 6 - PP - SEN. etc. Other classroom layouts have been provided on the PPT and Word documents for ease of editing. Ensure you fill in all the relevant areas of this document so that cover staff will be able to run your lesson as you would. It is recommended this document is printed ‘back to back’.
