Grandpa says “sometimes teachers can be an odd lot, but it is hard to raise up children right without good teachers.” So we arrive at a place where we must always jump off from as teachers: the lesson plan format. There can be as many possible ways to do this as there are teachers, but a popular lesson plan format that grew from the research and practices of Dr. Madeline Hunter is the A, E, I, O, U format. http://www.csun.edu/coe/eed/holle/PACT/planning/Lesson%20Planning.pdf A-Ask, E-Explore, I-Instruct, O-Organize, U-Understand. This method is successfully employed in STEM S-Science, T-Technology, E-Engineering, M-Mathematics teaching. http://www.ceen.unomaha.edu/Tekbots/SPIRIT2/Articles/Robotics.pdf
