Project 3 – Instruction/Lesson Plan Analysis

Choose two teachers that will provide a one-week lesson plan for evaluation.  Analyze the two plans using the NSA Lesson Plan Rubric (located in Appendix B).  Create a summary of the instructional and assessment practices specified in the lesson plans.  Decide what feedback you would give the teachers and list those issues to be addressed when providing feedback to the teacher.

Discuss your observations with the principal and get feedback on the effectiveness your proposed comments might have on the teachers.  Write the following:

• Summary of Teacher 1’s lesson plan and rating
• Summary of Teacher 2’s lesson plan and rating
• Summary of discussion with the principal
• Reflection on the best way to handle improvement of lesson planning as a principal. Include discussion of the lesson plan format, review process, and feedback procedures.
