Richards (1998)
suggest that lesson plan helps the teacher to think about the lesson in advance, to resolve problems and difficulties, to provide a structure for a lesson, to provide a map for the teacher to follow and to provide a record of what has been taught. 

Lesson planning:-


It is defined as a teacher plan for teaching a lesson.   
 
REASONS FOR PLANING A LESSON:- 

 
There are some internal and external reasons for planning a lesson (McCutcheon.1980).
Teacher plan for internal reason in order to feel more confident, to learn the subject matter batter, to enable lesson to learn more smoothly, and to anticipate problems before they happen.
Teachers plan for external reason in order to satisfy the expectations of the principles or supervisor and to guide substitute teacher in case the class needs one. A productive lesson plan is not one  in which everything goes exactly as planned, but one in which student and instructor learn from each other. 

Components of lesson plan:- 

Setting goals or planning
Developing activities or execution 
Determining material 

Phases of   LESSON PLAN:-


  A lesson plan has five phases:
 
1-Perspective/opening  


Role of teacher: 

ask what students have learned previous lesson, preview new lesson. 


Role of student: 

tell what they have learned previously, respond to preview. 


 2-stimulation :-


Role of teacher:-

prepare students for new activity presents attention grabber
Role of students: relate activity to their lives, respond to attention grabber.
 


3-instruction/participation:-


Role of teacher: 

present activity, check for understanding, encourage involvement, preview future lesson 


Role of student: 

Do activity, show understanding, interact with others, give inputs of future lessons  4-Closure 


Role of teacher: 

Ask what students have learned 


Role of students: 

Tell what they have learned.   5- follow up 


Role of teacher:

Present other activities to reinforce same concepts, present opportunities for interactions.


Role of student: 

Do new activities, interact with others 
These action verbs make easier for the students to understand the lesson that they have learned. 
Need of lesson planning:-
 
To guide or direct the teachers
To make teaching systematic and organized
To make effective time management
To stop unnecessary reputation of content
To link knew knowledge to previous knowledge
 
IMPORTANCE OF LESSON PLANNING:-

Lesson planning is important because:
 
It enhances the confidence of teachers
It enhances effect of teaching
 develop good habit of planning lesson before   teaching
It saves time and energy of teachers
 
Conclusion
 
A good lesson plan maintains the attention of students and increase the likelihood that a teacher wants.
A clear lesson plan will also maximize time and minimize confusion of what is expected of students thus making classroom management easier.
An activity arranged by the teacher about topic of the lesson is more powerful tool to Indulge the student attention towards teacher and students can understand the lesson simultaneously, this will help them to study easily.
Before start the topic revise/remind the previous topic to the students either by asking question or by taking test and during the topic also relate it to the previous lessons so that they revise it and keep them in their minds.
