INTRODUCTION 
 
Throughout the previous chapter, Lesson Planning in Preschool Education in terms of 
design and preparation has been approached, taking into account all its different subjects and 
courses. It has been argued that such Planning incorporates some decisions regarding the 
sequencing of each didactic unit. This chapter will analyze Lesson Planning in Primary and 
Secondary Education. At these stages, the teacher must face the analysis of the context as well as 
the goal setting, additional and reinforcement contents, methodological strategies and evaluation. 
The goals to be achieved in this chapter are: 
1.
To establish the sense of Lesson Planning inside the curricular frame. 
2.
To understand the range of teachers’ tasks in the lesson planning. 
3.
To know and understand the preparation process of the components in Lesson 
Planning. 
4.
To analyze the components of a didactic unit. 
5.
To assess the importance of Lesson Planning at the Primary and Secondary Education 
stages as an element of reflection about the educational practice. 
6.
To promote the reflection and the debate aiming at developing a higher professional 
autonomy and the improvement in the decision making capacity in terms of lesson 
planning. 
7.
To favor positive attitudes towards Lesson Planning in order to approach it as a key 
factor in the improvement of teaching quality.
