
A lesson is the smallest individual piece of a concept, theme, or topic to be taught

A lesson should only include one element to avoid confusion or overload

Once students have mastered a lesson, the teacher can move on to the next piece

A lesson is NOT necessarily what can be covered in 45 minutes or bell-to-bell

Individual lessons make up a unit


The “what” for the lesson. What is(are) the expectation(s) for the student. What will they learn or be able to do as a result of the lesson?

TEKS (Objective)
In Texas, you must list the TEKS addressed in the lesson alongside the objective(s).
If you can’t find a corresponding TEKS for your objective, then DON’T teach it.
Cite your TEKS as below:
6th Grade Mathematics: 111.22(b)(9)(B) – “Find the probability of a simple event and it’s compliment and describe the relationship between the two.”
