Individually, you are expected to choose a specific ESL/EFL teaching/learning context with a specific learner population and specify
relevant teaching/learning objectives. Then, develop a lesson plan that targets reading skills with special attention to subskills and
design relevant materials and resources. You are expected to specify and describe in detail the language teaching/learning context
and the learners for which the lesson plan is designed, the pedagogical and learning objectives/ outcomes it targets and serves, and
how your approach will help you and the students fulfill those objectives/ outcomes. In light of and with reference to your course
readings, you are expected to write your rationale in which you explain how you would implement the plan step by step,
rationalizing your approach and examining its potential and/or limitations. Note that you should include references discussed in class
and from your research.
You need to use a ‘Lesson Plan Template’ provided in OWL >> Course Readings>>Google Drive.
The lesson plan should include the following components:
Brief information about the lesson (e.g., class, level, topic, theme, skill)
Objectives (i.e., learning outcomes, what students will learn by the end of a lesson or module)
Planning elements (i.e., materials and aids, anticipated problems & solutions and homework/assignment)
Presumed knowledge (i.e., the minimum level of knowledge that students need for a particular subject)
Provide direct instructional components that describe the sequence of events that make up the lesson including the
presentation, practice and production phases of the reading lesson or pre-while- post-reading stages, and the time for each
activity
Assessment (i.e. how students’ understanding of the lesson will be assessed)
Rationale (min 200-max 300 words in total excluding the references)
The word limit for the total written assignment is min 1500 and max 2000 words including the lesson plan, the rationale, and the
references.
