I teach NYC and will not have a formal lesson plan for each lesson each day. I have a lesson plan book.....I write the standard and objective in the box, a small plan for the lesson. That's it! Our contract states we have to have a plan but they can not tell us how long, how it is written, etc. Formal typed out plans I only do for my observations.



this sounds like it makes perfect sense but we are being told that we could "lose points" for this on informals...



If they want MORE than that for informals, they need to start giving us more preps. This is getting out of control.



Exactly! Seriously, if I lose points and get labeled ineffective I don't care....this whole evaluation system is a joke. No one knows what to do, everyone is told different things. How about you ask my kids, my parents, my co workers if I am a good teacher.....and not rely only on Danielson 22 components.

We were told that we have to have lesson plans everyday for each class. Some of us have 4 preps so it is insane (I teach high school) When asked if we really have to do this our UFT rep just shrugged and told us to do it.

We have to have:
Aim
Motivation/Do Now
mini-lesson
Higher Order Questions
Procedures
Group work and how they are grouped
CCSS
What components of Danielson we are hitting
Materials
Closing
Assessment

For. Every. Single. Class

There is not enough time in the day to do this.






4 preps in a day???? Elementary gets 1Chat Icon



I feel like I never get my prep between parent phone calls, IEP meetings, grade level meetings, grade conferences, etc.

It's insane. My principal keeps flashing this 3 page lesson plan for 1 period at us saying that's what highly effective looks like. MY APs told us just to have the components of UBD in the lesson plan (TP, active engagement, questioning, group work, follow up) and format it however we want. As long as those components are in there, they said we will be fine. It would be great if the DOE can FINISH something before rolling it out!
