    Study Notes

    Objectives of Planning Instruction

    • Aim to understand key considerations for effective mathematics instruction in primary grades.

    Importance of Lesson Planning

    • Involves designing and preparing learning activities for students.
    • Considers lesson objectives, activities, sequence, materials, time management, and evaluation methods.

    Key Elements of Lesson Planning

    • Focus on five main elements: content, objectives, students, learning environment, and resources.

    Content

    • Research subject matter using curriculum and official teaching guides from DepEd.
    • Consult additional resources, including books and reputable websites.
    • Master content to avoid teaching inaccuracies; it’s vital to build a solid foundation of knowledge.

    Objectives

    • Define specific knowledge and skills intended for student development during lessons or units.

    Understanding Students

    • Gain insight into students’ backgrounds, interests, prior knowledge, learning styles, attention spans, and special needs.
    • Adapt lesson plans to meet diverse needs and create enabling learning environments.
    • Build rapport to encourage open communication and idea-sharing among students.

    Student Mindset

    • Address student mindsets, particularly in mathematics, to foster improved learning outcomes.
    • Recognize the impact of fixed mindsets, where students believe math skills cannot improve, often due to negative influences or past experiences.
    • Strive to cultivate growth mindsets, encouraging students to view challenges as opportunities for improvement.
    • Studies show students with growth mindsets tend to perform better academically.

    Learning Environment

    • Consider both the physical and socio-emotional aspects of the classroom environment.
    • Create a positive and supportive atmosphere where students feel safe to express their thoughts and ideas without fear of criticism.

    Availability of Resources

    • Assess required instructional materials before planning lessons.
    • Consider availability of tools like blackboards and manipulatives; think about potential improvisation.
    • Evaluate technology needs, ensuring compatibility with school resources and addressing any gaps in availability.
