in a determined time, space, and context.
Script: steps of a lesson plan:
1. The theme to be addressed: The subject, the content to be worked on: The theme
addressed should promote curricular development, that is to say, a curriculum
basic that meets the levels of Elementary Education (Cycle I, II) and Education
Medium. This means having a common base (PCNs) as a reference for
knowledge that articulates competencies and disciplinary contents.
Thus, it is necessary to understand that the theme guides the teacher's work.
in the teaching of the specific disciplinary contents of each subject, as well as
in students' learning. These contents, skills and competencies
should be organized by series/year, cycles, configuring that the curriculum is the
expression of what exists in the scientific, artistic, and humanist culture transposed
for a teaching and learning situation. The theme is the reference that
promotes relevant curricular learning for students.

base itself on the national curricular parameters and their disciplinary aspects, considering the
specificities of each discipline and the various contexts for meaningful learning. Page 1
The relevance of the topic:
The relevant elements that must justify the contents, the themes
disciplinary are the complexity of cultural life in its social dimensions,
economic and political; the development of scientific production and
technological; as well as the multiplicity of languages and codes in everyday life.
Thus, the curriculum should be seen as the space of culture; the
competencies as a learning axis; prioritizing the competence of
reading and writing; enabling the student for articulation and contextualization
of the social world with the world of work.
3. The Objectives: learning expectations:
The 'final product' is what is expected to be achieved at each of the stages of
development of work in the classroom, the main objective is to contribute and
define what the student needs to learn, based on systematization,
organization and selection of curricular content, thus adjusting it to
learning needs of the students.
4. The Schedule: tasks and stages.
It is the instrument for planning and controlling the tasks scheduled within a time frame.
determined, where the teacher organizes the tasks that will be worked on by
stages. In summary, a schedule is a management tool for activities that
consider the time when the activities will take place - Time management.
5. The teaching methodology:
It is the 'didactics applied to teaching' to assist and promote the process of
learning and the construction of knowledge. Therefore, the methodology
consists of the application of different and appropriate methods and strategies in
teaching-learning process. This means that the teaching methodology
it consists of the pedagogical action of mediation, intervention, and evaluation, through
of the operational procedures used to carry out the activities and actions
proactive, to ensure the expected results at each stage of the tasks
to be carried out by the students. As an example of methods and strategies:

specificities of each discipline and the various contexts for meaningful learning. Page 2
Dialogued expository classes with the help of a blackboard;
Expository classes with dialogue assisted by a projector;
Practical, playful classes with visualization and manipulation of different
materials (construction of panels, models, comic book)
seminars on studied topics, etc.)
In summary, teaching methodology consists of operational procedures.
(activity management) and the necessary actions to work on the content,
considering the nature and specific importance of the subjects
and the activities to be carried out in the classroom.
6. The didactic resources:
Teaching resources are related to technical and pedagogical dimensions.
intrinsic to the use and employment of educational materials and equipment in
school everyday environment is linked to the organization of the physical space of the
classroom, and the appropriate and qualitative use. These resources consist of
from the chalkboard to modern technological resources. Therefore, the
didactic resources are configured as teaching procedures
learning, capable of stimulating the student and bringing them closer to the content
discipline. As an example: the use of computer equipment,
projector, TV and video, toys with educational function, maps and globes,
teaching materials used for facilitating learning.
7. The assessment of learning:
It consists of monitoring the activities in their process of execution,
that is, in the observation of the performance demonstrated by the students,
following aspects: behavioral, procedural, and conceptual, thus,
midway through (evaluation) it is possible to identify several points that need
intervention and mediation for correction of courses in the context of the process of
teaching-learning. And finally, evaluate the production of knowledge
built by the student in a qualitative as well as quantitative way.

8. Bibliographic reference:
Bibliographic reference, in the lesson plan specifically, is the set of
texts or written works (such as title, author, publisher, place of publication, and others)
what you used to develop the topic worked on in class. That is,
a set of descriptive elements, information linked to the support
documentary that allows individual identification of each document-work.
