![]() I have used a bunch of different methods and I think this has worked pretty well! What types of lesson plan formats have you used? (if you present it like this to your principal – they seem to like this!) I also include a lengthy description of how each center is step up, how data is taken, who works at each center, what types of task done etc. You can view the student schedule to see when the student is at each station, the lesson plans to see what they are working at each day at the station, and the minutes form to see which IEP goal minutes are work on where. These can be then viewed in conjunction with the lesson plans. In the start of each school, I also submit my student schedules ( schedules) and the minutes form. Special Events: Last page is weekly special events, community based instruction, special activities etc. FYI: I post my monthly reading lesson plans at the start of each month so you can get ideas. ![]() I follow the same procedure as the center lesson plans but do not need to differentiate for each individual student since students are grouped by level and working on the same things. I use a monthly version of this form for the lessons I teach in groups. Here is a sample of what it looks filled in: This has worked really well because then I can post the one page at each station so everyone (aides, therapists) knows what is being worked on each day/for each student. Then I write the activity and then the abbreviation for the goal. The centers that change in my room are morning group, teacher time, language, math, and reading. different work tasks) but the content is staying relatively the same.Ĭhanging Centers: The next few pages are the centers that change. With some stations – the work might change (ie. Once you make this – it pretty much stays the same throughout the year. I write in student initials across the top (in the gray boxes) and use the abbreviations to indicate what goal is worked on. Static Centers: The first page is ‘static centers’ – these are the centers that pretty much stay the same throughout the year. These goals are based on State Standards and Common Core – and these related standards are indicated in the IEP. I say Brittany’s math goal not telling time to the minute – mostly to save space). ![]() I keep these with the lesson plans to refer back to since throughout my lesson plans I refer to the goal by subject area for each student (ie. To start off – I make a one page ‘cheat sheet’ for each students’ IEP goals. ![]() Since the needs of our students can be so different, I think that warrants our lesson plan format being a little different, right? My principal is very flexible on letting me design my own template and creating something that would be useful to our class setting. Here is my adapted format – It looks complicated but there is a method to the madness (I swear). My recommendation for lesson plans – talk to your principal or case manager to see if you can do an adapted format. I feel like a broken record but figure out what works for you! If it doesn’t work, switch it up until it does. How can you work on literacy and life skills similtaneously? I have tried tons of different systems and formats for scheduling, lesson plans, and data collection. Figuring out how to incorporate a class full of different IEP goals for learners who can sometimes be at almost opposite ends of the spectrum. Lesson planning for an autism classroom can be a scheduling NIGHTMARE.
