INSTRUCTIONA L PLANNING LESSON 4: The Teaching Cycle LESSON 4: The Teaching Cycle 1. Identify Objectives
What knowledge and/or skills do the
students need to learn? You must be guided by the content standards, performance standards, and the learning competencies that are found in the curriculum guide. Example: Teacher Gina identified “multiplication of whole numbers up to two digits” as the goal of her lesson. 2. Plan Instruction
What strategies must be implemented
for the students to achieve the objectives targeted in the previous stage? Example: Teacher Gina thought it is best to apply constructivist approach to help her students learn techniques in multiplying whole numbers. She planned a lesson that incorporates the problem solving strategy. 3. Implement Plan
This is the stage where you conduct the
learning activities that you have prepared during the planning stage. Example: The class went on smoothly. The activities that teacher Gina prepared were successfully done by her students. 4. Checking for understanding
Educators reflect on the effectiveness of
their teaching strategies, assess student performance, and identify areas for improvement. Example: To make sure that her students understood the lesson teacher Gina give a three-item exercise as an exit pass. 5. Reflect on teaching Based on the reflection and assessment, teacher make adjustments to their teaching methods, content delivery, or assessment strategies to enhance student learning outcomes. Example: Based on the exit pass, teacher Gina found out that many students have difficulty multiplying numbers that involve the digit 8. So, she decided to do a find-your- error the next day for the students to realize their mistakes. She also plan to give a short drill on skip counting by 8. 6. Assess learning and reflect on the results
Providing constructive feedback to
students based on their performance helps guide their learning and improvement. Example: Teacher Gina later on gave a multiplication quiz, Ninety percent of the students passed. She planned to give remedial exercises to those who failed. LESSON 5: Things to Consider in Planning Instruction in Primary Grades There are 5 components in lesson planning that you need to consider – content, objectives, students, learning environment and availability of resources. 1. Content Research the subject matter that you will be teaching. You should consult the curriculum and teaching published by DepEd. Aside from books, you can also visit to websites which will give you information relevant to your subject area. You should master the contents of your lesson before you teach it. 2. Objectives
Before you begin planning, you need to
know what specific knowledge and skills you want your students to develop during the lesson or unit. 3. Students
Get to know your students- where they
came from, what their interests are, what they already know, their learning style, attention span, special needs, etc. • Fixed mindset- believe that their math skills cannot be improved.
• Growth mindset- believe that they can be
better at math. 4. Learning Environment
It is also important to consider the social and
emotional learning environment of the class. You need to make sure that you promote a positive environment where students are motivated and supportive for each other’ s growth. 5. Availability of resources
Take into consideration the instructional
materials that you will be needing before you write your lesson plan. LESSON 6: Instructional Planning Models There are many instructional planning models that mathematics educators have constructed, but the two most widely used in the Philippines are the ADIDAS and the Five Es models. ADIDAS stands for Activity, Discussion, Input, Deepening Activity and Summary. Activity. The lesson begins with an activity that will later facilitate a meaningful discussion about the topic of the session. Discussion. The lessons proceeds with the processing activity. In this part, the students, as facilitated by the teacher, talks about their experiences during the activity. Input. In traditional classroom, the Input is where the teacher lectures. In a constructivist classroom, this is the part where students would share the concepts that they learned based on the activity and the discussion. Deepening. Here, the teacher asks questions that will engage the students to critical and creative thinking. Nonroutine mathematical problems or real-life word problems may be given. Activity. This is the part where the students verify what they have just learned by solving mathematical problems. Depending on the need, the students may be engaged in guided practice and/or individual practice. Synthesis. The students are given the opportunity to express what they have learned by verbally giving a summary. The students may also be given a short assessment to give the teacher feedback on what they have learned. The five Es are Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate.
Engage. The students’ prior knowledge and engages
them into new concepts by doing short activities. The aim of this part is to arouse the students curiosity. Explore. The students are exposed to different experiences that will facilitate the discovery of new concepts. It involves observation exercise, simulations, or manipulations of instructional materials. The goal here is for the students to discover something new. Explain. The students explain what they have experienced in Explore, The role of the teacher is to facilitate the discussion that should lead to students seeing patterns that will help them to describe the new concepts in their own words. Elaborate. Allows the students to expand their understanding of the concept by applying the concept that they have learned in solving mathematical problems. Evaluate. Lets the teacher and the students evaluate their learning. Through giving sort of exercises are usually the mode of evaluation.
