Concept of Lesson Plan

In an educative process, teaching is an important part of education and lesson planning is the
essential requisite or main ingredient of good teaching. The basic meaning of the lesson
planning is the formulation of a plan of action or rather a blue print of a lesson.

education, her knowledge of the material to be taught and her ability to utilise effective
methods."
