Without lesson plans, a teacher would be lost in the classroom. Concordia University Chicago uses a preformatted Word Document to teach students how to create and to use lesson plans. Every teacher uses lesson plans, but each teacher uses a different format. Microsoft Word allows teachers to create blank lesson plans to simply the lesson planning process. After the format is created, the teacher enters the correct information into each box to finish the lesson plan. Teachers use lesson plans to decide the course of the day. In my ePortfolio, I included an example of a complete lesson plan for a second grade classroom, but teachers at all levels create lesson plans.
