 Mechanics of lesson planning, we will look at some of the mechanics, some of the essential, some of the constituents of planning an efficient and effective lesson for writing, how to teach writing or how to design syllabus for L2 writing. In this regard, there are different ways available to us. For example, we can use lesson plans with the help of computers. So there can be lesson, of course, can be written or and we can print it out or it can be scribed out. Or we can use the PowerPoints. It depends whatever technology we have, what facility we have. So the lesson should list its objectives first. And apart from objectives, what students did in the last classroom, how we can create a logical sequence between the last class and this class. And then we need to make balance between reading and writing. It's seen that most of the writing courses are based on reading activities. So how we can use those reading activities for writing purposes is important. How we train our students, analyze those texts for writing purposes and then time management. It's usually seen that observed that some writing lessons are deviated from the main course because there is a lot of discussion, there is a lot of group work, there is a lot of out of the way questions which may affect the overall classroom or the class environment. And it may be challenging when you are teaching big classrooms, right? So a plan should have a logical sequence. We should begin with course objectives, lesson objectives. And there should be a link between the work which was done previously and the work which was completed previously. And materials used, whether you are using coursebooks, whether you are using authentic materials, whether you are using your own tailor-made materials. And then how to manage the classroom in an effective way. By management of the classroom means I mean the group work, the pair work, and to create opportunities for each type of student and then the lesson sequence. It's not like that you teach difficult things first and then come to the simpler one. So designing the sequence is important and then you should pay attention to the contingency plans. For example, if the lesson is not completed or if something untoward happens or you might have to wind it up earlier, what would happen? And then reflection as I emphasized in the previous module how it can help you become better and polished teacher. A key to lesson planning is how you activate the previous knowledge of the student. The knowledge that they have and they should be warm up activities. For example, if you are teaching them about writing a paragraph on comparison and contrast. So you can warm them up by knowing what they know the devices to compare two objects, to contrast two objects. So that will actually reshape your teaching methodology and then you can create opportunities for follow up and next lesson questions. So this kind of scheme actually helps give teachers what they can do in the classroom effectively and efficiently. And as discussed earlier that many composition courses are reading courses, but how to maximize those reading courses for writing purposes is important. So I would suggest you dedicate enough time to analyze those texts, discuss those texts and write about those texts and genres. And it has been observed that what the literature on L2 writing suggests is that teacher talk more and there are less opportunities for student talk. So there should be a balance between teacher talk and student talk and this balance can be reached through offering group work, peer work or class discussion.
