Below is the Lesson Plan Format that the English Department requires you to employ during
your Methods and Block Courses in English and during your Block Experience and Student
Teaching. You may be asked to modify this format for your Education Courses. But, ALL your
Lessons for Block courses and Student Teaching should follow this format and complete it
comprehensively. This procedure is in place for both original and borrowed lessons.
When you think of the word different in terms of race, what are some
one word definitions that come to mind? (Write these on the board)
After the students generate a few one word definitions explain the
activity.
Activity:
o Pass out sheets of plain paper.
o At the top of the paper the students will write one word
that explains how someone could be different (ex:
ethnicity, gender, sexuality, language, etc.)
o After they write one word the students will pass their
papers to the right. Each student is required to write 2
stereotypes that are generally associated with the word
at the top. They will have 20 seconds to do so.
o After each student writes their two responses, they are
to categorize the stereotypes in whatever way they
please.
o Discuss the stereotypes listed and how they are depicted
in todays society.
o Collect at the end of the class.
Lesson Ending
Today we discussed different types of differences, their stereotypes,
and how these differences are depicted in society.
Tomorrow we will be going over the big assignment for this unit
where you will choose groups and books you want to read within your
groups.
Assessment: VERY IMPORTANT Assessments for this lesson would be discussion and
the paper from the pass-around activity. This measures what the students know already
and what else I can do in the Unit to get them to understand.
Materials Needed: Paper, pens/pencils, board, marker/chalk
References: n/a
Special Adaptations: For this class period, students will need to be arranged in a circle so
it is easier to pass papers. This is difficult for a lot of students to handle because they do
like change. I will assure them that this is a temporary arrangement for today only.
Anticipated Difficulties: Students may not answer questions, so prompting will need to
be done. Students may have a difficult time coming up with stereotypes; more
time/examples can be given.
