LESSON PLAN SEQUENCE
Introduction
How will you ACTIVATE prior knowledge and ENGAGE them in the lesson and how does this lesson connect to prior lessons?
I will activate prior knowledge by asking students what they remember about data. I will ask them what type of data collection they
completed – collecting data by counting. In addition, I will use a video on tally marks to engage students in the lesson and refresh their
memory on tally marks.
Learning/Activity Sequence
How will students ENGAGE, EXPLORE, EXPLAIN, ELABORATE, and/or EVALUATE their understandings of the outcomes.

Conclusion
How will you ensure students walk away with a sense of understanding the PURPOSE of the lesson and its IMPORTANCE to their learning?
I will ensure students walk away with a sense of understanding by reviewing how the collection of data is applicable to real life. I will make
connections with the lesson and to students experiences to create a meaningful lesson.
PRE-SERVICE TEACHER SELF-REFLECTION

In your self- reflection of your lesson, please consider the following questions:
1. What went well in your lesson? What were the strengths of the lesson?
2. What are the areas that need to be refined? What might you do differently next time?
3. What are your next steps to further develop/ refine this lesson? How will you continue to grow in your practice? What actions
will you take?
These are additional questions that can help guide your response to the three self– reflection questions.
• How do you feel your students experienced this lesson?

• How were they able to make explicit and self-evaluate their growing understanding, skills and/or knowledge?
• How did you employ formative assessment for/of/as learning?
• Were you successful in reaching all students? How do you know? How did you accommodate for diverse learners and those
requiring accommodations?
• Were there opportunities to address Indigenous, multicultural and interdisciplinary activities and knowledge?
The strength of this lesson was that it was engaging for all students. The video at the beginning was an effective way of getting students
excited about the lesson. I employed the I do, We do, You do method in my lesson to ensure that students remained engaged throughout the
lesson. An effective strategy in ensuring that students understand the concept being taught is by demonstrating it first, then doing it as a
group, and lastly doing it independently. I could refine this lesson by creating an exit ticket at the end of the lesson to formatively assess the
students. I was able to accommodate the needs of diverse students by writing the words for them on the board to copy, and creating a simple
graphic organizer for their survey. Next time, I would shorten the time when students survey their classmates as 5 minutes was too long and
students started to get off-task. My next step to further develop this lesson is to find opportunities to address Indigenous, multicultural, and
Interdisciplinary activities and knowledge.
