I drafted my first DI LP, MSMC style. I appreciate the thorough preparation I am receiving here. The plan was 10 pages long. I thought of many angles and wrote out my lesson "script." That works for me. Even if I don't say the words exactly as written, I certainly have a solid idea of where I am heading and where I want to end up with the lesson.
This practice is excellent. I am excited to actually deliver a lesson that I am writing. I took Literacy in the Content Areas and I gave a one hour lesson to one student each week but we did not have to write them up in the official MSMC format. We focused on the student's interests and brought in books and activities the coincided.
This lesson plan is for a large class of #21 students. I believe my lesson plan is a good one. But what do I know!
Good night now.
