WHY PLAN?

Daily lesson planning can benefit English teachers in the following ways:

1). A plan can help the teacher think about content, materials, sequencing, timing and activities.

2). A plan provides security in the sometimes unpredictable atmosphere of a classroom.

3). It is a log of what has been taught.

4). A plan can help a substitute to smoothly take over a class when the teacher cannot teach.

A daily planning of lessons also benefits students because it takes into account the different background, interest, learning styles and abilities of the student in one class.
