3270 - LESSON PLANS
Every teacher is responsible for planning on a daily basis. Lesson plans should be designed for individual student programs taking cognizance of student strengths and weaknesses.
| A. | While teachers are required to be thoroughly prepared for each daily lesson, plans may be prepared for each lesson or on a long-term basis; i.e., unit of work - whichever is most appropriate. Material to be used in a lesson(s) - such as duplicated material, cassette tapes, films, filmstrips, transparencies - may serve as an integral part of the plan. | |
| B. | Lesson plans for individualized programs should reflect a general overview and purpose of the instructional program based on the "Graded Course of Study" - individual student records may serve as an integral part of the lesson plan. | |
| C. | Lesson plans will be reviewed on a weekly basis by appropriate administrative and supervisory personnel. | |
| D. | Teachers are to provide adequate directions for substitutes - the purpose of which shall be to continue the ongoing program or, if more appropriate, a meaningful educational alternative that relates to the subject area. | |
| E. | A copy of the lesson plans will be available at the office for substitute teachers when needed. |
