How do I design Effective Instruction?

Becoming a student teacher is a feeling of many feelings. Its sophomore year and your like two years down two to go. Senior summer hits and your filled with excitement, fear, anticipation, and many more. One thought that is always running through you head is how am I going to be able to design lesson plans to be most effective to each and every student.

After reading this weeks weekly reading and doing the reading reflection I got a better understanding of what needs to be in a lesson plan and some of how to approach it. Something that some teachers do not understand is that every student learns differently. I am sure that your best friend did not learn the same way as you going through school on all topics.

Scaffolding is one of those techniques that was common sense but I never knew the correct term for it. From personal experience I want the extra explanation and demonstration in order to learn new tasks that are also difficult. Although this teaching method seems like common sense that does not mean you know how to incorporate it to make it effective in use. Through the reading today that all became a little more clear. I hope that when developing lesson plans this all comes together and I can show what I have learned on paper and in the classroom.
