Final Assignment
You are a first year teacher. Your principal is going to observe your class for a day. You
need to prepare a lesson for that day of class, and set it in a context so that your principal
can understand how it fits in.
As a part of this assignment you must do the following:
• Design and teach a lesson to the class drawing upon class themes
• Submit a detailed written description of your lesson plan, along with the context
in which it is set (target class, the place this falls in the unit, other activities and
lessons that would be done before and after this lesson, etc.)
• Write a reflection on the lesson.
The lesson should be approximately 35-40 minutes long.
For our class you will be working on these projects in pairs. You will be teaching the
lessons the last two to three weeks of classes. You should set your lesson in one of the
schools that you have been observing in this semester. But you should define the school,
class, and subject that you are teaching and use this to justify your lesson plans. The
primary criteria for these lessons is how you reflect the educational themes that we
discussed in class (and in your other practice teaching) this year. This is best
accomplished by focusing on one or two themes and specifically pointing those out in a
brief introduction to your lesson.
The written part may be integrated into the final portfolio or submitted separately.
