A big favour from any KS1 teachers

[ExpectoPatronum]

For my placement, I need to prepare a lesson plan, and ideally I need to do it this weekend so I can run through it with my class teacher before the end of term. However, I've not got a template for a lesson plan for this age group, and I'm struggling to find something appropriate on t'interweb.

Would anyone be kind enough to PM me with a blank template that they use, or post a link to something suitable online?

Thank you so much in advance

Don't you go to university to learn how to do this sort of thing?

The reason you can't find a definitive lesson plan online is because they are so personal. You will learn the skills to develop your own as you go through your course and even now I constantly change mine depending on what my (or the head's) focus / new initiative is. What do you NEED to include and make yourself a template.

Some ideas:
Learning objective
Success criteria / expected outcome
Prior learning
Resources
Focus children
SEN considerations eg can colour blind / dyslexic children access your resources? any children who need to be seated by you / at the front? etc
LSA deployment
Professional development focus
Key skill
SEAL focus
AFL opportunities
Key Vocabulary
Starter: Key questions, activity, differentiation

Teacher Input: Key questions, differentiation, key vocab (for maths, explore which numbers you will use in example questions for each ability group)

Main activity: Fully differentiated. Who will work with which group? Can they access resources independently? Do you have suitable relevant work for early finishers? Extention tasks or challenges?

Plenary: Consolidation of learning. How will you assess outcomes?

Consider mini plenaries and addressing potential misconceptions during the lesson

Thank you zandy for your constructive input.

danny, this is very helpful, I appreciate the time you've taken to do this. It's given me a really good idea of what should be included.

For the record, I am training to be a TA, not a teacher, and the assignment I have to do asks us to carry out an activity with a group of children, designed to include a child that may be harder to include due to SN, EAL, or even just their particular personality.

My class teacher has said she is happy for me to plan something myself rather than just shoehorn this into what she would be doing with them anyway. In the hope of doing it to a high standard, I wanted to attempt a proper lesson plan rather than just a paragraph explaining what I was going to do. It was an attempt to use my initiative and not just do the bare minimum.

You need to ask the class teacher for the planning format used by the school (if they have a standard plan)
What subject are you planning? My format for literacy is different to maths is different to topic ... you get the picture

I'm planning to do a numeracy activity involving estimating, recording estimates, discussing as a group whether or not other children think the estimate is going to be right, then measuring and seeing how close their estimates were. I'm aiming to give different children in the group different jobs to do (e.g. a child that's confident recording number - they're 5 - might be writing the estimates on the whiteboard, someone else might be asked to set up the equipment) as well as obviously them all having a turn at the activity itself.

thank you mrz

I wasn't giving you 'input', I was asking a question. Hence the questionmark.

Did you mean your question to sound sarcastic and patronising?
