# Teaching Lesson Plan Skill
|
||
|
||
Produces a complete, structured lesson plan for any subject, age group, or setting — from a one-hour corporate training to a full school lesson. Built around clear learning objectives, varied activities, and formative assessment.
|
||
|
||
## Required Inputs
|
||
|
||
Ask the user for these if not provided:
|
||
- **Subject or topic**
|
||
- **Audience** (age group, experience level, group size)
|
||
- **Session length** (30 / 45 / 60 / 90 / 120 minutes)
|
||
- **Setting** (classroom / workshop / online / corporate training / one-to-one)
|
||
- **Learning goal** (what should participants know or be able to do by the end?)
|
||
- **Prior knowledge** (what can you assume they already know?)
|
||
|
||

## Key Explanations and Worked Examples
|
||
|
||
### [Concept 1]
|
||
[Clear explanation + one concrete worked example. Explain the concept the way a good teacher would — no jargon without definition, one idea at a time.]
|
||
|
||
### [Concept 2]
|
||
[Explanation + example]
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Differentiation
|
||
|
||
**For those who need more support:**
|
||
- [Scaffold: e.g. sentence starters, worked examples, vocabulary cards]
|
||
- [Modified task or reduced scope]
|
||
|
||
**For those ready for a challenge:**
|
||
- [Extension: e.g. apply to a new context, evaluate, create something]
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Formative Assessment (Check for Understanding)
|
||
|
||
**During session:**
|
||
- [Method 1: e.g. Cold calling with no-stakes approach, thumbs up/down, mini whiteboards]
|
||
- [Method 2: e.g. Think-pair-share before moving on]
|
||
|
||
**Exit ticket (last 5 minutes):**
|
||
[One specific question that directly tests the learning objective — not "what did you enjoy?" but "solve this problem" or "explain this concept in your own words"]
|
||

||
|
||
## Common Misconceptions to Address
|
||
|
||
| Misconception | Correct understanding | How to address it |
|
||
|---|---|---|
|
||
| [What learners often get wrong] | [The correct version] | [Specific activity or explanation] |
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Quality Checks
|
||
|
||
- [ ] Learning objectives use action verbs (not "understand" or "know")
|
||
- [ ] Session has a clear hook that establishes relevance
|
||
- [ ] Activities are varied (not all listening)
|
||
- [ ] Formative assessment checks the actual learning objective
|
||
- [ ] Differentiation is specified for both support and extension
|
||
- [ ] Timing adds up to session length
|
||
|
||
