PHASE 1

Prior to the lesson:

• Establish the objectives (what learners will be able to do or understand as a result of the lesson).
• Determine the standards of performance.

At the start of the lesson:

• State the objectives and standards of performance (type of lesson to be presented, procedures to be followed and behavioural expectations related to it, what the learners are expected to do, what knowledge or skills are to be demonstrated and in what manner).

Introduce the skill:

• Consider using a "hook" to grab learners' attention.
• Attempt to relate the experiences of the learners to the objectives of the lesson.
• Focus learners' attention on the lesson.
• Create an organizing framework for the ideas, principles, or information that is to follow.
• Extend the understanding and the application of abstract ideas through the use of example or analogy.
