COMPONENT 1: Lesson Preparation

Features 1 & 2: Content objectives and Language objectives are clearly defined, displayed, and reviewed with students

??? What is an objective? Answer: A statement that describes precisely what students will know and learn.

COMPONENT 1: Lesson PreparationContent Objectives: What do you want the students to know and be able to do?• Government prescriptions• GT & L p. 52: Context (background, culture, and setting) and

Content (story line, people, events)

Language Objectives: How will you teach? (methods/approaches) GT & L p. 52, 57• Class discussions, audovisual, writing, small group work• What will my students do in class today?• How will I help my students discover what they need to know?

Why write OBJECTIVES?

Turn and Talk: What is the purpose for writing objectives?

When students know what they are learning, their performance, on average, has been shown to be 27 percentile points higher than students who do not know what they are learning.

Write Simple, Clear OBJECTIVES

• Write lesson objectives—something that can be learned and taught.

• Use student friendly language—personal: “I”

• Keep it simple—what students will learn or do.
