We have been discussing the elements and procedures for lesson planning and you should be continuing work on preparing your lesson plan presentation. For this assignment, you will work with a partner to review, discuss, and analyze a sample lesson plan according to specific guidelines. Key elements you should point out include whether the plan addresses appropriate standards, if it requires engagement of higher order thinking skills, how it differentiates instruction to engage all students, and if it includes appropriate assessments.
