It’s not advisable to:
give long descriptions of everything that will happen;
describe in detail the routine actions (e.g. “stand up” etc.);
give word-for-word texts of all the instructions and explanations
Here we have a sample of a formal lesson plan (short version) - the blank form is
taken from Scrivener’s “Learning Teaching”.

On the other hand, Harmer says in his “The Practice of English Language
Teaching” that no one can say exactly what a formal plan should look like, or what
information should be given. However, a formal plan should have the following
(some of them can be seen in Scrivener’s version above):
Aims – the results which we will try to achieve. Aims should represent what a
teacher hopes the pupils will be able to do (by the end of the lesson), not what the
teacher is going to do.
Main lesson aims
By the end of the lesson the pupils will be able to:
compare school subjects, using the long
adjectives in the comparative and superlative
forms
use the verb “to have” in discussions about
their timetable and compare it with other
pupils’
form accurate oral and written sentences using
comparative and superlative forms of long
adjectives
Personal goals
In this lesson I’m going to use visual aids to teach
degrees of comparison of long adjectives as well as a
Power Point presentation.
I want to have my pupils motivated and active, so I’ll
try to use a game with school subjects and adjectives
Timetable fit
Pupils have been practicing degrees of comparison
of short adjectives for the past two lessons. They
have listened to a description of several persons and
they have checked the correct information in a table
for example, they have formed sentences with
degrees of comparison of short adjectives, they have
studied vocabulary related to physical appearance.
Talking about degrees of comparison of irregular
adjectives will be the next step
Assumptions
Pupils already have some knowledge about the verb
“to have”, so discussing and comparing timetables
using this verb should not be a problem.
Predicted problems
Incorrectly using the word “than” in superlative
sentences.
Using “more” in superlative sentences and “the
most” in comparative ones.
Materials used
Power-Point presentation, worksheets with exercises,
flashcards, timetables of different pupils in UK
132
A lesson will have more than one aim, usually an overall objective (for example
practicing listening skills) and specific aims (for example listening for specific
information, guessing or predicting the content)
Assumptions: teachers should assume what the pupils know and can do.
