REFLECTIONS ON THE LESSON PLAN

1. How did the students demonstrate their understanding of the key concepts presented in this
lesson?
2. What went well? Why? What could be improved?
3. How did the activities support student learning? How did the activities lead to achieving
objectives?
4. What will your next steps be to further develop the key concepts of this lesson?

_______________________________________________________________________________________
Eight questions to “Think Aloud” as you prepare lessons
1. Students: What are the academic, social, physical, personal, and emotional needs of my
students?
2. Strategies: Which teaching strategies will best facilitate my students’ learning?
3. Grouping: should I group heterogeneously or homogeneously? What size should my
groups be?
4. Timing: When is the best time to do this lesson? Are there prerequisites my students
should have mastered?
5. Materials: What materials and human resources do I need for the lesson to be successful?
6. Success: Was the lesson successful? Were my students interested? Did my student learn?
What didn’t work? What will I do differently next time?
7. Sequence: What can I do next to build upon this lesson? How can I make it flow?
8. Rationale: What is the reason for doing this? What objectives will be accomplished?

Lesson Objectives
Written objectives should be characterized as S.M.A.R.T
Specific Achievable
 Well defined to students Students are academically ready for the objective
 Observable to teachers
 Who What When Where Why

Measurable Relevant
Can be evaluated: * prepare students for “testing”
Objective is either reached or not * relates to larger ideas
* builds on prior knowledge

Time Bound
 Enough time
 Assigned date for completion
Step1 start with a stem sentence
Step 2 determine the learning outcome
Ask: how will I be able to determine that the students understood it?
What can they do to demonstrate that they’ve mastered this concept?
Step 3 Consult Bloom’s Wheel to select the appropriate level and verb that reflect exactly what you want
the learners to do.
Step 4 write the verb and learning outcome into a statement that, when combined with the stem, forms a
complete sentence.

Measurable learning objectives
Learning objectives are measurable observable statements of what students will be able to do at the end of a
unit of learning.
No vague or immeasurable terms
Bloom’s Will helps verbs / activities / assessments for your courses.
