Day 3 1- What are lesson aims? 2- Why is setting lesson aims important? 3- Nonfunctional verbs 4- Bloom Taxonomy Classification 5- Objectives for reading comprehension lessons 6- Learning Objectives for Listening, speaking and writing skills

5. 1-What is a lesson plan A lesson plan is a framework for a lesson.
  A lesson plan is a teacher's detailed description of an individual lesson.
A lesson plan is a framework for a lesson.
If you imagine that a lesson is like a journey, then the lesson plan is the map. It shows where you start, where you finish and the route to take to get there.

6. 2-Why plan? I don’t have time to plan.
I think it’s important to have aims.
I never stick to plans.
I don’t have time to plan.
The textbook is my plan.
Planning helps me teach more effectively
I don’t do detailed plans, but I make rough notes.

7. 2-Benefits of planning
Lessons that are well planned are more likely to help students and teachers ...
Avoid unpleasant surprises
Achieve their objectives
Allows the teacher to prepare for every step of the teaching process in advance.
Save your class if for some reason you can't be there to teach. The lesson plan will provide valuable guidance for the substitute teacher.

8. - Allows good, reflective teachers to go back, analyze their own teaching (what went well, what didn't), and
improve on it in the future
Saves your time in the future. When you teach similar lessons you can refer back to your old lesson plan
Provides a framework for organizing ideas, methodology and materials.
Helps make the lesson coherent.

9. Increases teacher confidence
Helps to identify any problems or difficulties which may arise during the lesson
Helps to identify the kinds of activities and materials to include to achieve aims
Developmental – a learning document for teachers to reflect on after the lesson
In sum...
Although it requires an investment of time and energy, lesson planning produces many valuable benefits.

10. 3-What are the principles of planning?
A- Aims and objectives
One of the main principles of planning is establishing clear aims for your lesson.
It is important that aims are realistic. If the subject is too difficult, then students can become frustrated and lose motivation.
However, if the subject is too easy, the students may become bored. So it is important when planning to think about your particular class.

11. You may find it useful to bear these points in mind: • What do the students know already? If you are planning to introduce completely new language items allow more time than if you are revising or extending a topic the class are already familiar with. • What do the students need to know? If the students are studying for an exam, for example, then you may need to focus on different skills and language than for a general English class. Do your aims suit that need? • What did you do with the students in their previous class? balance of skills work, with listening, reading and writing practice as well as activities for speaking. • How well do the class work together? • How motivated are the students?

12. B- Variety
As we have seen, it is important to try and keep the students engaged and interested. Providing variety in a lesson is a way of achieving this interest.
Repeating the same kinds of exercises can become de-motivating for students. Where possible it’s a good idea to try to vary the kinds of activities, materials and interactions.

13. C- Flexibility
However well you plan, you never actually know exactly what’s going to happen in a class until it happens! Exercises may take longer or shorter than expected. The students may be more or less interested in a topic than you imagined. Something unexpected may happen during the lesson.
In these cases if the teacher sticks to his plan, the careful preparation may actually have a negative effect.
Careful planning is very important but teachers need to be able to adapt their plan during the lesson to suit the circumstances.

14. 4-Problems as a result of not using lesson plan
Here are some problems that we noticed:
* If you don't plan your lesson properly you may fall into several traps:
* Your teaching may wander without achieving its objective and you may never achieve the objectives of the course.
* You may come to teach and find that you didn't bring the necessary materials or equipment.
* What you teach may not relate to what you taught earlier and it may not lead to what you will teach later.

15. In sum,
Lack of planning can lead to the following consequences:
- Poor or reduced learning,
- Frustration (for both the teacher and the students), and
- A waste of time, effort and money
