Title: Environmental Education


1
Environmental Education
  • Lesson Planning

2
Lesson Planning
  • To begin, ask yourself three basic questions
  • Where are your students going?2. How are they
    going to get there?3. How will you know when
    they've arrived?

3
Lesson Plan Sections
  • Goals/Rationale
  • Objectives
  • Prerequisites
  • Background Information
  • Materials
  • Lesson Description
  • Lesson Procedure
  • Evaluation
  • References

4
Goals
  • What is the broader rationale of the unit
    plan/curriculum?
  • What do you expect students to know by the end of
    this unit?

5
Objectives
After completing this lesson, students will be
able to
6
Prerequisites
  • What must students already be able to do before
    this lesson?
  • What concepts have to be mastered in advance to
    accomplish the lesson objectives?

7
Background Information
  • Technical information someone will need to know
    to conduct the lesson.
  • Especially important in EE
  • Should cite references at the end for further
    study.

8
Materials
  • What materials will be needed?
  • What textbooks or story books are needed?
    (include full bibliographic citations)
  • What needs to be prepared in advance?

9
Lesson Description
  • What is unique about this lesson?
  • How did your students like it?
  • What level of learning is covered by this lesson
    plan? (Think of Bloom's Taxonomy knowledge,
    comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis,
    or evaluation.)

10
Lesson Procedure
  • Anticipatory Set
  • Introduction
  • Main Activity
  • Closure/conclusion
  • Follow-up lessons/activities

11
Anticipatory Set
  • Describes how you will make the transition into
    the lesson
  • How is it related to past material, future
    materials, student knowledge, and experiences?

12
Introduction
  • Describe how you will introduce the lesson to the
    students and how you will stimulate their
    interest and excitement for the topic and
    activities.
  • A "spring board" activity, demonstration, song,
    etc. can often be effective in capturing the
    students interest.
  • What will be expected of students?

13
Main Activity
  • A step-by-step procedure
  • Number each of the steps
  • Avoid generalities e.g." Discuss water
    pollution
  • How would you describe the flow of the lesson to
    another teacher who will replicate it?
  • What does the teacher do to facilitate learning
    and manage the various activities?

14
Conclusion
  • Describe how you will conclude the lesson (review
    of content, bridges, informal assessment of
    learning, student feedback, etc.).
  • Effective activities include those that get the
    students to summarize what they have learned (by,
    for example, presenting the results of a science
    project)
  • Again, describe what both the teacher and the
    students will do.

15
Follow-up Lessons
  • What activities might you suggest for enrichment
    and remediation?
  • What lessons might follow as a result of this
    lesson?

16
Evaluation
  • Plan for how you will assess student learning.
  • The focus is not on grading the students but on
    determining if the objectives have been achieved.
  • Try to make it an "authentic" and integrated part
    of the lesson.
  • The assessment may include questions within the
    body of the lesson plan
  • or specific formal and informal evaluation
    procedures such as observations, skill
    demonstrations, tests, reports of projects,
    portfolios, media displays, published works, etc.
  • Your assessment strategies must match up with
    objectives.
