process
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
Three (3) types of Lesson Plans
A. Detailed lesson plan- A detailed lesson plan (DLP) is exactly that, a
detailed description of the exact steps to teach a specific topic. A DLP
includes five parts of thorough explanation on,
1. lesson topic
2. class objectives
3. procedure
4. time management and
5. student practice
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
Detailed lesson plan (DLP)
• While these lessons can be invaluable for beginning or substitute
teachers, they are time-consuming to develop. They can also
slow down a class if a teacher following the plan must constantly
refer back to it to ensure that all steps and information are
delivered as written.
• Detailed lesson plans require teachers to study the extensive
plan prior to teaching in order to achieve successful
implementation, which requires a substantial investment of
teacher time
 In detailed lesson plan, the
expected routines, lesson
proper, activities are
presented. Questions and
answers are written.
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
B. Semi-detailed Lesson Plan
•A semi-detailed lesson plan focuses on the lesson for that day
but doesn't inquire into each subtopic. Instead, the plan would
include only the learning target and a summary of the required
information.
•For example, in a history class, the lesson plan might list the
topic’s significant events along with a short list of objectives,
activities, and assessments to give the teacher a general idea of
the lesson.
 In semi-detailed lesson plan
has only contains procedures
or steps to be used in the
lesson proper.
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
C. Brief Lesson Plan
•A brief lesson plan is one that hits the main points of a lesson
and does not involve a lot of detail. The brief lesson plan can
give an overview of the expected learning outcome of a particular
module.
•A lesson plan is the instructor's road map of what students need
to learn and how it will be done effectively during the class time.
 A brief lesson plan is one that
hits the main points of a
lesson and does not involve a
lot of detail

Benefits of Using a Simple Lesson Plan

•Experienced teachers should view the lesson plan as a guide to remind them:

 What topic they are teaching

 How they will present the material
 What activities or assignments correlate with the topic

Using a template saves teacher work hours and unifies all the lesson plans in
a school so that any teacher or substitute can step in to teach the class when
needed.
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
The lesson plan template should include:

 Student objectives and learning goals

 A pre-assessment to ascertain prior learning
 Instructions for learning activities
 Assignments that allow teachers to monitor student progress
 Activities and technology designed to engage students
 Opportunities for students to generate ideas and ask questions
 Organized timeline with flexible options to accommodate lesson
duration
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
How to Prepare a Simple Lesson Plan
Set learning goals - An objective helps the teacher remember the lesson's
primary purpose. Lessons should be based on national/state standards and
described in the plan. Goals should be reasonable and realistic.
Write the objective for the lesson plan - Write the lesson objective at the top
of the page so that no one teaching it will forget or get off course. Any teacher or
observer should immediately understand what the lesson plan intends to teach.
Use real-life examples - Real-life examples help the students to relate to the
lesson and understand how the concept transfers to the real world.
Keep information on-topic - With limited space in this lesson plan style, it is
crucial that all content is on-topic and designed to achieve the targeted learning
goal(s).
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
•Include assignments for student self-assessment - Self-assessment is
vital to measuring student comprehension. Design a self-assessment
questionnaire or activity that allows students to evaluate themselves.
•Know your students and their individual needs - Each student responds
to different learning styles. Use various teaching methods to ensure
students can approach the material using their strengths.
•Prepare timelines for individual lessons and the entire unit - Prepare
extra material in case a class runs short while providing a few shortcuts in
the event students need more time to complete objectives.

The 4A's of the Simple Lesson Plan
The 4A’s make it easy to remember what type of information should
appear on a simple lesson plan based on student needs.
The 4A’s lesson plan is a framework widely used by teachers to design
effective and student-centered lessons.
The term “4As” stands for Activity, Analysis, Abstraction, and
Application, representing the different stages of the lesson.
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
The 4A's of the Simple Lesson Plan
In the Activity phase, students engage with prior knowledge and
participate in activities that spark their interest.
The Analysis phase involves processing and classifying information,
deepening their understanding of the topic.
The Abstraction phase focuses on reinforcing and generalizing the lesson,
allowing students to grasp the concepts in their own words.
Finally, the Application phase brings practicality by encouraging students
to apply what they have learned in real-life contexts.
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
The Activity phase Simple Lesson Plan
The Activity phase serves as a foundation for student learning, building
upon their existing knowledge while providing clarity on what they will learn.
Through engaging activities, students gain a retrospective view of the topic
and develop a sense of curiosity and interest.
This phase lays the groundwork for a meaningful learning journey.
Students engage with prior knowledge and participate in activities that spark
their interest.
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
Example
I. Activity:
• Begin the lesson by showing pictures of different objects and people to
the students.
• Engage the students in a group discussion where they describe the
pictures using adjectives, adverbs, etc. Encourage them to compare the
objects or people based on size, height, age, etc.
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
The Analysis phase Simple Lesson Plan
The Analysis phase explores deeper into the lesson, encouraging students
to process and classify information. Teachers transition from a lecturing role to
that of a facilitator, guiding students through thought-provoking questions. By
critically evaluating the validity of concepts, students gain a wider perspective
while drawing closer to the main topic.
This phase encourages students to think critically and refine their
understanding.
The Analysis phase involves processing and classifying information,
deepening their understanding of the topic.
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
Example
I. Analysis:
•Provide examples of comparatives and superlatives and guide the students in
constructing sentences using comparative and superlative forms.
•Ask the students to analyze the sentences and identify the rules and patterns for
forming comparative and superlative forms.
•Facilitate a class discussion where students share their observations and findings.
•Pose questions to deepen their understanding, such as “What are the common suffixes
used to form comparative and superlative forms?” or “How do irregular adjectives
change when forming comparative and superlative forms?”
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
The Abstraction phase Simple Lesson Plan
In the Abstraction phase, teachers focus entirely on the lesson, reinforcing
students’ existing knowledge while guiding them toward a deeper
understanding.
Through open-ended questions, teachers help students internalize the
importance of the lesson and its relevance to their lives. By relating the
content to real-world scenarios, students develop a sense of ownership and
appreciation for the subject matter.
The Abstraction phase focuses on reinforcing and generalizing the lesson,
allowing students to grasp the concepts in their own words.
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
Example
I. Abstraction:
•Guide the students to abstract the lesson’s main points and concepts.
•Summarize the rules and patterns for forming comparative and superlative
forms, emphasizing the importance of using them accurately and
appropriately in English.
•Encourage students to think about real-life situations where they can apply
these language structures effectively.
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
The Application phase Simple Lesson Plan
The Application phase prompts students to apply their learning in practical
ways. By considering how they can utilize their newfound knowledge,
students explore innovative ways to improve and expand upon what they
have learned.
This phase encourages creativity, problem-solving, and the transfer of
knowledge to real-life situations.
The Application phase brings practicality by encouraging students to apply
what they have learned in real-life contexts.
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
Example
I. Application:
•Provide practical tasks and activities where students can apply what they have
learned. For example, they could write comparative and superlative sentences
about their classmates or create a poster comparing different products or places.
•Engage students in discussions or role-plays where they use comparative and
superlative forms to express opinions and preferences, or make comparisons.
•Encourage students to reflect on how they can incorporate these language
structures into their everyday communication in English.
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
The Department of Education has provided templates for Detailed Lesson Plan
(DLP) and Daily Lesson Log ( DLL). This was done institutionalize planning
which is vital to the teaching –learning process. Guidelines were formulated to
assist teachers in planning, organizing and managing their lessons to meet the
needs of the diverse learners
Teachers must also keep in mind that in stating the learning outcomes, the
three domains must be considered ( Cognitive, Affective and Psychomotor).
Outcomes must be stated in terms that are Specific, Measurable, Attainable,
Realistic and Time –bounded ( SMART)
 LEARNING/LESSON PLAN
The cognitive domains includes, remembering, understanding, applying,
analyzing, evaluating and creating
The learning outcomes, activities and assessment must be constructively
aligned.
The instructional strategies used must help in the attainment of the learning
outcomes. The modes of assessment must determine if the outcomes were
attained at the end of the lesson.
The essential parts of the lesson plan/learning plan
Learning outcomes
Learning contents
Learning resources
Learning procedure
