Content Teams Lesson Internalization Guide

This guide is designed to help teachers effectively implement curriculum lesson plans by gaining clarity on the lesson's logic and structure and considering student needs. It involves analyzing the lesson plan template, narrative, and materials to understand the objective, context, lesson type, flow, and pacing. Teachers then read and work through the lesson as a student to understand what content may be complex, what vocabulary needs support, and how understanding is built. Questions are prioritized and scaffolding/differentiation is planned. Finally, teachers consider how to frame the lesson for students by communicating the objective, activating prior knowledge, engaging an opener, assessing learning, and assigning relevant homework.

Lesson Internalization Guide: This guide is designed to help individual teachers or groups of teachers using the same

curriculum effectively process and implement curricular lesson plans. They gain clarity on the logic of the lesson, establish
priorities for instruction, and think through student needs.
Materials Needed
 Lesson Plan Template
 Module lesson narrative (Eureka and Wheatley materials)
 Lesson text or problem sets
(10 min) Overview. Print out the teacher’s guide and consider the following:
A. Objective & Standard: What is the objective? Make sure all activities align with the objective &/or focus standard.
Ensure the objective is clear, measurable, worthy, and rigorous. Modify or delete anything extraneous to the objectives.
B. Context: How does this lesson build on the previous lessons and support the ones to come? Where does it fit in with the
logic of the whole module?
C. Lesson Type: What type of lesson is it? (e.g. close reading, Socratic, exploratory, etc.)
D. Lesson Flow: What is the flow of instruction? What will be modeled (if anything)? What will be done through partner
work? Independently?
E. Tools and Strategies: What tools & strategies does the lesson use? When & how will you incorporate annotation,
highlighting, graphic organizers, note taking, etc.?
F. Pacing: How much time will you devote to each part of the lesson? How much time is devoted to practice and/or
reading? Is there the right balance between various phases of understanding? Does the lesson include sufficient time
for kids to think, speak, and write?
(20 min) Lesson Analysis. Read the text and/or work through problem sets, questions, and activities from the perspective of a
student. Consider the following…
A. Content: What makes the text or problem set complex? Where will you supply scaffolding &/or differentiation (such as
chunking text)?
B. Vocabulary: What vocabulary needs to be frontloaded? What vocabulary will students work through? How will you
support the vocabulary of the lesson?
C. Building Understanding: How many steps are involved in lesson activities? How do activities build on one another? How
you will check for understanding at each part of the lesson? What must students understand in moving from one activity
to another?
D. Questions: Prioritize the questions. Which questions are essential? Which are not? Do the questions build in complexity
and decrease in teacher support?
E. Scaffolding & Differentiation: Identify probable student misconceptions and areas of difficulty, as well as opportunities
for challenge and extension. Plan scaffolding & differentiation supports. Determine ideal student responses and how
you will prompt when a student answers incorrectly.
(10 min) Framing the Lesson. Consider how you will present the lesson to students.
A. Objectives: How will you communicate the objectives to students? How will you incorporate student-friendly language?
How will you ensure students understand the objective?
B. Spiraling: What previous knowledge do you need to spiral and activate?
C. Opener: How will you create purpose, context & interest for the lesson?
D. Assessment: How will you assess student learning? What are your criteria for success on that assessment? How will you
support student self-assessment?
E. Homework: How will you reinforce the skills and concepts taught in the lesson? What differentiation or scaffolding will
there be? What accountability will there be for homework?
