There are different ways of planning a lesson. Below you can find an example template and a set of components to bear in mind when planning one. To help you make the planning process simple and clear, we have included a list of concepts and a short description of each one for your reference (see the last page of this document).

Concept	Definition
Class title	Give an appealing name to your lesson. For instance “What are your favourite animals?” “What’s your family like?”
Communicative objective	State a clear, realistic, attainable and well-defined goal for students to achieve by using the target language. For example: Students will be able to tell a simple story. Students will be able to exchange personal information, etc.
Learning objective	State a clear, realistic, attainable and well-defined goal for students to achieve related to a language point. For example: Students will be able to use the interrogative form of the present simple. Students will be able to practise the past simple.
Class profile	Describe the main characteristics of the students you will teach this lesson: age, language proficiency, socio-cultural description, interests, preferences and needs.
Materials	List the materials that you will use during the lesson: worksheets, sound system, PowerPoint presentation, etc.
Approaches to teaching and learning	Mention the kind of approach you’d like to apply during the lesson (i.e. Communicative, Task-Based, Natural Approach, CLIL, etc.)
Stage	A lesson has different moments. You can define them depending on the approach that you choose as long as you identify their function within the lesson and articulate them with its purpose and objectives. Examples: a. Presentation, Practice, and Production b. Lead in, presentation, controlled practice, freer practice, closure
Transition	State how you connect an activity with the next one. This is usually done with a simple sentence.
Closure	Wraps things up!  Go over any areas where students might still be having problems/doubts. A good way to check their understanding is to write several yes/no questions of key points from the lesson. Then pose them to the class for a quick thumbs up/thumbs down.
Assessment	Define what strategy or strategies you will use to know if your students reach the class’ goals. Identify if you want to develop summative or formative procedures for assessment.
