- 8. LESSON PLANNING FORENGLISH CLASS 6 ACADEMIC YEAR 2022-23 First Term TEACHER NAME 8 Points to be focused by Teacher Points tobe focusedby Teachers: A little preparation goes a long way. Teach incontext. Lessons should beplanned in accordancewith learning goals. Work outa diverse weekly planto engage the students. Relate issues to their daily lives. Students areoften more closely connected to issues than they realize. All activities should be student oriented, notteacher oriented. Mustrelate the grammar contents to the planned lesson/comprehension. Model critical reading activities. Utilize library lesson strictly for thereading of the novel. Consultthe suggested referencebooks to devise various class activities and resources. Create presentations that are more Showing and less Telling. With every creative writing attach ATL (approach to learn) in note books. Every creative writing mustbe based on two drafts. Working outyour weekly plan, include dictation work, vocabulary, word sentences accordingly. Display a vocabulary chart in the classroom; writeat least five new words or expressions on it fromeach lesson and ask the students to jot down the same on their note books. Formatactivities to different preferences i.e working aloneor in groups. Encouragetheir personal point of view about the content or the lesson they have read. Get timely feedback of the taught lesson. Block lessons havebeen underlined. Any test assigned would be assessed thevery next day. Direct the students to avoid ready-made opening paragraph in creative writing Recommended Books for Students :ROBINSON CRUSOEBy Daniel Defoe , ROALD DAHL THEWITCHESIllustrated by Quentin Blake.
