What is it?

The 5 Minute Lesson Plan lives up to its name. Developed alongside Angel Solutions, it uses some clever, cognitive science stuff to help you streamline your thought process. All you have to do is fill out the boxes as directed and… voila! You’ll have a lovely, focused lesson plan, ready to save and share — in just 5 minutes.

Designed to reduce planning time and focus on key learning phases within a lesson. Lesson planning is a habit of thought, not a form filling exercise. So, why use the 5 Minute Lesson Plan? Useful for coaching and mentoring NQTs; or with established colleagues for paired observations; designed to help teachers consider the cognitive processes required in lesson planning. “Stickability” = What will stick in students minds as they leave your lesson? What key point do you want them to remember?
