Lesson Planning and Micro-teaching Guidelines

Objective:  design a professional lesson plan with its general components, based on a Language Competence previously assigned.

1-      Students will be asked to work in groups of three (under teacher’s discretion or by streaming: friendship) to elaborate a lesson plan based on a specific language competence and topic. The group will carry out their micro-teaching based on their lesson plan.

2-      The teacher will raffle the language competences and topics among the groups. Lesson plans must be presented the day of the class, before micro-teaching.

3-      If material is to be used, each group is responsible of having it ready and professionally made, (including use of technology which has to be reserved at least one day before micro-teaching day and has to be picked up before the class and taken back to teacher´s office after).

4-      The order in which each group will participate will be raffled in class (November 4^th).  The micro-teachings will begin on November 8^th, groups ?? (08:00 to 08:30AM) and ?? (09 to 09:30AM).

5-      Punctuality is a MUST!

6-      Each group will have 30 minutes to develop their class (10 minutes for each student). The length of time is required to be distributed equally among the activities and the three group members. 20 minutes will be dedicated to provide a critique and feedback to the group after micro-teaching.  Every group is expected to start and finish on the established time (there will be no more time allocated). 

7-      Students are expected to apply the theory previously studied in class, e.g. classroom management, classroom environment, the code of ethics, writing objectives, and the like.

8-      A rubric will be used to evaluate the lesson plan and the micro-teachings.

9-      Attire is part of the micro-teaching and the evaluation system.

10-  Doors will be closed after micro-teaching has begun. No one is allowed to come in after that. Latecomers will be allowed to enter at 09:00 after the first session.

11-  Students who are not doing micro-teachings are expected to be present (attendance is part of the overall grade) and to help by serving as designated students for micro-teachings.

12-  There is one teacher at each phase, no interventions allowed by anyone else.
