In Lesson Planning, teachers can employ and combine various teaching strategies and methods to
deliver instruction. In choosing strategies and methods, the teacher must consider learner’s diversity which
will respond to their needs.

INSTRUCTIONAL MODELS, AND METHODS Check if applied REMARK

1. Direct Instruction
It is systematic, structured, and sequential teaching.
Its basic steps include presenting the materials,
explaining, and reinforcing them. According to
Borich (2011), direct Instruction methods are used to
teach facts, rules, and demonstration, didactic
questions, drill and practice, guides for reading,
listening, viewing, and lectures.

INSTRUCTIONAL MODELS, AND METHODS Check if applied REMARK

2. Indirect Instruction
It is a teaching strategy in which the learners are
active and not passive participants. It is used for
A Guide for Holistic Instructional Supervision Made Easy : An Innovation Template
concept learning, inquiry learning, and problem –
centered learning ( Borich, 2011). Indirect
instruction methods include case studies, cloze
procedures, concept formation, inquiry, problem-
solving and reflective discussion
3. Interactive Instruction
It addresses learner’s need to be active in their
learning and interact with others including teachers
and peers. The interactive method includes
brainstorming, debates, cooperative learning,
interviewing, small-group discussions, and whole-
class discussions.
4. Experiential Instruction
It is teaching students by directly involving them in a
learning experience. This strategy emphasizes the
process and not the product of learning. This method
includes games, experiments, field trips, model
building, field observation, role play, immersion, and
simulation.
5. Independent Study
It is a teaching strategy in which the teacher’s
external control is reduced and students interact
more with the content ( Petrina,2000). The
independent study method aims to develop learner’s
initiative, self-reliance, and self-improvement. It
includes assigned questions, correspondence
lessons, computer -assisted instruction, essays,
homework, learning contracts, reports, and research
projects.

Learning activities that students typically engage in inside the classroom can vary depending on the
grade level, subject matter, and teaching approach. Here are some common learning activities often
conducted in classrooms:

LEARNING ACTIVITIES REMARK
applied
1. Lectures:
Instructors deliver structured presentations to
introduce new content, concepts, or topics. Students take
notes, ask questions , and engage with the material.
2. Class Discussions:
Teachers facilities discussions to encourage student
participation, debate, and the exchange of ideas related to the
lessons.
3. Group Work:
Students work in small groups to complete
assignments, solve problems, or discuss topics
collaboratively. Group work promotes teamwork and peer
learning.

4. Hands- On- Activities:
These may involve experiments, demonstration, or
practical exercises, allowing students to apply theoretical
knowledge in a tangible way.
5. Classroom Demonstrations:
Instructors demonstrate concepts or skills, providing
a visual or hands -on representation of the subject matter.
6. Peer Teaching:
Students take turns teaching a topic or concepts to
their classmates, promoting a deeper understanding of the
material.
7. Question and Answer Sessions:
Instructors encourage students to ask questions about
the content, clarifying doubts and stimulating critical
thinking.
8. Debate and Role- Playing:
These activities help students develop critical
thinking and communication skills by arguing a specific
point of view or role- playing scenarios.
9. Think-Pair- Share:
Students think about a question or topic individually,
then pair up to discuss their thoughts before sharing with the
class. This promotes active participation and reflection.
10. Problem-Solving Activities:
Instructors present real- world or hypothetical
problems for students to analyze, discuss, and find solutions.
11. Interactive Technology:
The use of interactive whiteboards, tablets, or other
technology can engage students through multimedia
presentations, online quizzes, and educational software.
12. Socratic Seminars:
Students engage in structured discussions, often
around a text or a philosophical question, where they take on
an active role in leading the discussion.
13. Peer Review and Critique:
Students review and provide feedback on each
other’s work, such as essays, presentations, or projects, to
improve their understanding and communication skills.
14. Concept Mapping and Mind Mapping :
Students create visual representations of concepts or
ideas to help them organize and understand information.
15. Jigsaw Method:
In this cooperative learning approach, students
become experts on a specific topic and then share their
knowledge with others, fostering collaborative learning.

The choice of learning activities within the classroom depends on the educational goals, the subject
matter, the age and development of the students, and the teaching style of the instructor. Effective teaching
often combines these activities to cater to diverse learning styles and create an engaging and interactive
learning environment.
