What’s on the lesson plan template
- Header fields: date, subject, class, duration and topic.
- Objectives and Materials: lined boxes for what students will learn and what you need to prepare.
- Procedure: a table with a time column and an activity column. Set Action steps from 3 to 10.
- Assessment and Homework: how you’ll check learning and what students do next.
- Reflection box: what worked and what to change next time. Turn it off for more procedure space.
The plan fits on one page, so it’s easy to keep in a binder next to handouts or hand to a substitute teacher.

Frequently asked questions
What should a lesson plan include?
The core parts are learning objectives, materials, the sequence of activities with timings, how you will check understanding, and homework. This template has all of them, plus subject, class, duration and topic at the top and an optional reflection box.
How many steps can the procedure have?
Choose 3 to 10 rows in the procedure table. Each row has a time column and an activity column, for example warm-up, direct instruction, guided practice, independent work and plenary.
Can I make a full teacher planner?
Yes. Combine lesson plans with a school timetable, monthly and weekly planner pages and lined pages for notes, then print the notebook as a booklet in any size.
Is it free for teachers and schools?
