6. Lesson Preparation and Presentation What is lesson preparation ? Lesson preparation is: selection of topics, determining instructional objectives, selection of teaching methods and instructional materials and determining the evaluation instruments for the assessment of the teaching. 

7. Lesson Preparation and Presentation What is lesson preparation? Lesson planning involves much more than making arbitrary decision about what to teach and how to teach it. Many activities precede the process of designing and implementing a lesson plan.  L esson planning is not complete until after the teacher has assessed both the learner’s attainment of the anticipated outcomes and effectiveness of the lesson in leading learner to these outcomes.

8. Lesson Preparation and Presentation What is lesson preparation? Lesson preparation should not be seen as a burden but should be seen as the last stage of preparation to go to the class. The purpose of lesson plan is to communicate .

9. The importance of lesson plan A well prepared lesson plan gives the teacher a sense of direction when he/she enters the classroom. Lesson plan helps the teacher to know when and where to start and where to stop. It allows the teacher to know which materials would be needed so that they are collected before the class. In case of illness, lesson plan of a teacher could be used by another teacher to teach the class. It serves as a record for the teacher in future. It also guides the teacher as to what instrument to use for evaluation.

10. Common mistakes in writing lesson plan Instructional objectives do not specify what the learners will actually do. Lesson assessment disconnected from the instructional objectives formulated. The previous knowledge not specifies or inconsistent with what is actually required to succeed. The instructional materials specify in the lesson are extraneous to the actual described learning activities. The student activities described in the lesson plan do not contribute directly and effectively to the objectives of the lesson. The instructional contents are not efficient for the level of intended learners. Not stating instructional methods to teach objective specified.

Lesson Presentation While stepping into the classroom, before anything at all teachers should make sure the classroom is physically ready for the learners to receive training (that is seating arrangement are adequate). It is worth noting for the teachers to know that at presentation stage, they are to demonstrate academic subject and pedagogical knowledge.

13. The importance of lesson presentations Introduction of the lesson: The first thing a teacher does in the presentation of the lesson is to introduce the lesson. The essence of introduction is to alert the class to the fact that the business of the learning is to begin . G oing by the approved lesson plan format, you are to introduce the lesson by briefly explaining the current topic. The introduction to a lesson, no matter what form the lesson plan takes, must be to develop learners’ interest and state the lesson objectives and significance. The maximum duration for introduction of the lesson is 5 minutes.

In your presentation, do not read a lesson plan verbatim; make sure you are thoroughly familiar with the material you are presenting. To meet the specific objectives of the lesson, you must know exactly what you are going to teach and how you are going to teach it. Y ou must be careful not to over teach; that is, to provide extraneous information merely because you are knowledgeable in a particular area.

15. The importance of lesson presentations Actual presentation (i.e. teaching ). At the same time, do not under teach; that is, skipping what is in the lesson plan. During presentation, material should be presented in logical sequence beginning with the known and moving to the unknown. While teaching, you should ensure effective way of using the chalkboard. The chalkboard should be properly divided and you should write legibly (chalkboard summary and not classroom note).

Transitions signal to the learners that you are progressing to a new point. Chain materials (that is, tie it together) in a meaningful manner. Link material previously taught with the present material, or link the present material with what will be taught later. Maximum duration is 20 minutes.

17. The importance of lesson presentations   Conclusion/Summary: Just as it is necessary to have an inspiring introduction, so also it is necessary to have a clear-cut conclusion. This could be a summary of what you have taught or restatement of the key points. Duration is 5 minutes. 

18. The importance of lesson presentations Evaluation: This is another important aspect of lesson presentation. Evaluation should be built into the lesson at all major stages of the lesson- beginning, middle and towards the end . At the beginning, teachers need to know the current standing of the learners vice versa the new topic. While presentation is on that is, while teaching, you are to ask question to ascertain learners’ understanding.

19. The importance of lesson presentations Evaluation: Towards the end of the presentation, the question asked to determine whether the objectives of the lesson have been met is termed summative evaluation. Summative evaluation may take oral or written form. Homework activities that is given to the learners is a form of evaluation that is done to make them practice at home and at the same time make them remain on the track until the next lesson. Duration for evaluation is a maximum of 10 minutes . **Teachers should always reflect on their lessons!
