    A1 Lesson plans are needed- like a map or blueprint- but they should have flexibility based upon the prof opinion of the teacher. #ECET2
  • teresagross625 Nov 13 @ 8:07 PM EST

    A1 I think this Q hearkens back a lot to last week's topic, flexibility. #ecet2
  • mccoyderek Nov 13 @ 8:07 PM EST
    We should be focusing less on lesson planning and more on planning for learning! A1 #ecet2

  • Arsant10 Nov 13 @ 8:07 PM EST
    A2: Lesson plans should just be a skeleton. We should just use them if needed but stray if there is a teachable moment. #ecet2
  • DerekLong929 Nov 13 @ 8:08 PM EST
    A1: Absolutely not. Lesson plans give us ideas about what we are going to do, but we need to TEACH, monitor, and adjust as needed. #ecet2
  • TeacherLadyKY Nov 13 @ 8:08 PM EST
    A1 Highly disagree! Plans provide a blueprint to help you map out that differentiation. They make sure instruction is INTENTIONAL. #ecet2
  • HillMrispo Nov 13 @ 8:08 PM EST
    #ECET2 A1 Lesson plans only lock you in if you let them. I use them as my framework and adjust as need be. It's a mentality!
  • Zariebanda Nov 13 @ 8:08 PM EST
    A1: I think it depends on how rigidly we are expected to adhere to them. No problem with elaborate plans if departing is permissible. #ecet2
  • TeachDB17 Nov 13 @ 8:08 PM EST
    A1. Fitting as I finish lesson plans right now! Plans should include diff., also used as a guide to facilitation not the end all. #ecet2
  • MrEggertsClass Nov 13 @ 8:08 PM EST
    A1: add your spark to a lesson plan! I do not like teaching cookie-cutter lessons #Unique #Innovate #ecet2

  • bethhill2829 Nov 13 @ 8:08 PM EST
    A1: I agree. I would rather Ts plan daily based on Ss needs. Plan interventions, differentiation. #ecet2
  • stacyshughes Nov 13 @ 8:08 PM EST

    A1 disagree. I use lesson plans to plot my objective but recognize the path there can vary in pacing. #ecet2
  • teresagross625 Nov 13 @ 8:09 PM EST
    A1: lesson plans can be a crutch and excuse not to differentiate possibly.... #ecet2
  • japhillips0722 Nov 13 @ 8:09 PM EST
    A1 Lesson plans give a framework & additionally, standards give you the finish line. A teacher's "touch" goes in between #ECET2
  • cpk601 Nov 13 @ 8:09 PM EST
    A1:formal lesson plans are the skeleton. It's up to the ind. Ts to provide the meat and bones to take ed. to the next level #ecet2
  • ravivarelli Nov 13 @ 8:09 PM EST
    Difficult to say, but I would say lesson plans reduce instructional freedoms but bolster plans for differentiation #ecet2
  • barrykid1 Nov 13 @ 8:09 PM EST
    I love the language Adam uses here: suggested path. This leaves Ts open to modification and adjustment. And, to think. #ECET2
    • AdamBrownEDU Nov 13 @ 8:08 PM EST
      A1. Lesson plans serves as a suggested path towards a destination. Form. Assess helps us find the actual roadway #ecet2
  • jodiepierpoint Nov 13 @ 8:09 PM EST
    A1: Lesson planning should allow for differentiating! You can't plan for what may come up during a lesson - questions, etc. #ecet2
  • DanKraiza Nov 13 @ 8:09 PM EST
    a1 Lesson Plans do not lock us in-we make those minute by minute decisions to change lesson right at the moment-we need to do this. #ecet2
  • FloradTeach Nov 13 @ 8:09 PM EST
    A1 LP should be a framework for what you want to do but you should modify as needed according to student needs #ecet2

  • mccoyderek Nov 13 @ 8:10 PM EST
    Our conventional thinkg of lesson plans is a linear model, not allowg for coachg, exploration. We have to count on the divergent #ecet2 A1
  • DennisDill Nov 13 @ 8:10 PM EST
    Lesson plans are more about accountability than actual planning ...we have curriculum maps we follow, which are in theory our "plans" #ecet2

    A1. I think lesson plans only lock you in if you allowl them too. If you feel as if they are, talk to your instructional ldr. #ecet2
  • sjkibel Nov 13 @ 8:10 PM EST
    A1: A/D. Good planning gives me a starting place, but each period gets a different variation bc they are different people. #ECET2
