Developing lesson plans can be overwhelming if your plate is already full with other student requirements. The school principal will want to keep tabs on what the educator is teaching their students, and may ask from time to time, ” May I please your lesson plan for today?” of course you must supply what higher authority request.
Lesson plans must involve the school’s curriculum material with various guides( one each for social studies, science, and language arts). Inside each guide are goals, content and topics to be taught, suggested activities for each topic, and a bibliography of printed resources that an educator could turn to if ever needed.Math and reading curriculum consisted of what the teacher’s edition of the texts are telling them to teach, and art consisted of activities taken from an Instructor’s magazine. Music and physical education are an hit or miss category.
Each week educator’s are overwhelmed with the materials they have to bring home to labor over lesson plans too. Trying to figure out what to place in the little boxes of the lesson plan books, between grading papers, and filling out paperwork.
Two acts of Congress have changed the curriculum, instruction, and assessment. These acts challenges and opportunities that dictate how an educator does business in an classroom. These two acts established a system of state-mandated standards, along with accountability to ensure that all students meet them, regardless of any mitigating factors. Both acts have completely changed how teachers today plan for the year.
Growing up long ago as a child I remember not feeling like I was learning much of anything. The material was boring to me, and I wished the teachers would have had a creative mind to find ways to incorporate a my mind to use my hands to think, to learn, and to absorb the material taught to me. The reading material was placed in front of me, I was to take out line paper and number the sheet with my name and read. Or, take out the math book turn to page#, read directions and answer with pencil, and for science/history or any other subject it was the same way-boring. There was no interaction with the teachers but with me rising my hand and asking a question-yea!
I see students today as I am a substitute teachers, and the students are just not engaged in learning. As someone watching this from day in to day out-it just is emotionally wrong to me. I would like to find a way to draw the students in more. Pre-written lesson plans for educators would be a honored service for them, so that the educators could just come to my page find what they like or need, download and print it out, take to class prepared. Awesome right? I think so, and I would find other routes to engage that distracted child’s mind to use their cognitive thoughts to learn and remember what they learned that day.
Knowing what educators go through from day to day, going in at seven thirty in the morning and not leaving till after four everyday. Who wants to go home and write lesson plans instead of associating with their children? I would not like that, so when my page is up and running come check it out. Pick out some pre-written lesson plans and enjoy the rest of the day with your family.
