Lesson Plan

A good lesson plan is very vital to any teacher as it can make a difference between helping the teaching experience either be a boring or interesting (Shoemaker, pg 150). Teaching grade two and three is not as easy at it seems as the children minds is still young and what they are taught at that age might have a life time impact. In that aspect I present two lessons plan that will ensure that not only will the children understand what they are taught but not even a single one will be left behind in class work (Feeney, pg 150).
