Unveiling Lesson Planning Magic: Exploring Different Models Together

In this project, we embark on a journey to uncover the magic of lesson
planning by delving into three distinct models: the Gagne Model, the
Madeline Hunter Model, and the 5E’s model. Each model offers a unique
roadmap for crafting engaging and effective lessons, tailored to meet the
needs of diverse learners.

One of the theories presented in this project is that of Gagné, which

proposes observation and learning based on the incorporation of the
development of cognitive mental processes that are incorporated into the
strategies. Gagné provides steps and techniques to follow to motivate the
student to acquire new knowledge, so that they then acquire significant
knowledge transference learning.

Hunter's lesson model is characterized by its direct teaching method and

consists of 8-step lessons that are incorporated into the lesson plan that
are subdivided into: set antisipatory (approach), purpose (objective), entry,
modeling (show ), guided practice, check understanding, independent
practice and closure. This model is quite closely associated with typical
behaviorist/general cognitivist instructional design models.

The 5e lesson plan is characterized by being a tool that will help the
teacher guide the student to a learning process efficiently, rather it is based
on knowledge that the student acquired from previous educational grade
levels, it also carries students to explore new topics, with increasing
autonomy and going deeper into them. The 5e or the 5 steps of this
method are as follows: engage, explore, explain, elaborate, evaluate. These
Steps can be Repeated in a Cycle to Constantly Improve the Learning
Process.

We will develop an investigation or where we will present essays in

classes with the 3 methods, we will point out their main characteristics to
highlight as efficient, their not so favorable characteristics and the possible
flaws that the lesson model presents.
Gagne Model Lesson Plan :
Objective: Let's rock! By the end of this lesson, students will confidently

showcase their newfound skills.
Evaluation: Students will complete a worksheet full of two-step equations to
demonstrate their mastery. Meanwhile, teachers will keep an eye out during
practice sessions for any equation-solving superstars!

Instructional model: The Madeline Hunter Model leads the way, ensuring
every step is clear and understood before students take the equation-solving
reins themselves.

Practice for the skill: The practice activities are just right, providing ample
opportunities for students to grasp the equation-solving process at their own
pace.
Feedback/Critique/Solutions:

 Conclusion:

Collaborating on lesson planning proved to be a magical experience,

unlocking creativity and fostering deeper understanding. Each model offered
its own unique strengths, guiding us in crafting engaging and effective
lessons. However, to improve future planning endeavors, clarifying objectives
and roles within the group would be beneficial. Despite challenges, working
together proved invaluable, sparking insightful discussions and refining lesson
plans to perfection. Together, we made waves in lesson planning, ensuring
every student's learning journey is one filled with excitement and discovery.
The advantages of working on lesson planning as a team is that there are

many ideas, if we organize these ideas, we can make proposals of great

interest that contribute to the development of the children, in some aspects

that not all of us think about, for example in some art. or sport.

I think that an important disadvantage is that the logical sequence of work

is sometimes not achieved due to lack of communication or sometimes

because we understand the issues in different ways, and it seems to me

that to improve that aspect we have to unite more as a team. And make

a good effort.

To improve in lesson planning we must be able to feed ourselves with the

knowledge of others, taking into account the opinions of all classmates and

know that although we weigh in many ways and have particular tastes, we

try to reach the assigned goals.

And finally, we should organize a small evaluation, where everyone writes

what they did and evaluates themselves so that in each activity that is

done, the workloads can be balanced equitably. All of this based on a way

of working, as we have done lately, sharing the resources we have and

knowledge, to be a strong team and so that we can progress progressively

in the following exercises. I liked the way we have faced conflicts,

constructively and getting something positive for each one.
