diagram, fish bone, table, matrices, etc.

the forms of:
 Dramatization simulation and play
 Storytelling, oral reading
 Construction drawing
 Written composition
 Singing or reciting a poem
b. Evaluation – Determine whether the objectives are met
and achieved
 Questioning, summarizing, journals
 Assigning work-project, research
  Administering short query, portfolios it contains the procedure w/ questions and answer from the
learners.
c. Assignment – an activity done outside the classroom/s  Semi-detailed – shorter that the detailed. No longer divided

TYPES OF LESSON PLAN: INSTRUCTIONAL MODEL/DESIGN

 Detailed - anticipating teaching because it puts into writing  Multi-grade instruction – combined w/ a class
the classroom activities that may occur. It is divided into 2  Team teaching – Two more teacher
column----The TA and SA/PA. It is the longest plan because  Distance education – needs of individuals
 Computer-assessed instruction – utilize computer
TYPES OF LESSON
 Developmental Lesson – new lesson
 Review Lesson – renew the study
 Drill Lesson – Automization of certain response
 Application lesson – provides oppurtunities
 Appreciation lesson –understand & Value

TEACHING APPROCHES
 Discovery Approach – through discovery
 Conceptual Approach –integrates ideas
 Inquiry Approach – aspect Tearching
o Inductive Method – specific to general
o Deductive Method – general to specific
o Laboratory Method/Experimental Method
-Teaching procedure
Investigation or Experimentation
