Effective lesson planning is half the battle won when it comes to implementing and delivering effective and engaging learning in the classroom.

Teaching and learning in the IGCSE classroom requires teachers to be highly reflective and focus on the processes of learning rather than the outcomes of learning. There are two main concerns that we often have as IGCSE teachers. One is meeting the needs of students at different learning levels and assigning students work that is both challenging and achievable. Two is juggling between making students ‘exam ready’ and creating robust lesson plans to meet all the curriculum requirements.

With these time-saving, five-minute lesson plan templates, you can modify the structure of your lessons, run quick checks to ensure that each lesson supports diverse learners, and include clear learning objectives for each lesson. These five minute templates support single-subject lesson planning in the IGCSE and are especially powerful for languages, arts, sciences, and global perspectives.

Ideate on key learning objectives and lesson plan ideas during collaborative planning meetings
