That is very broad....hmm...well, from my experience it:
-involves
1.body movement,
2.listening,
3.speaking and communication and
4.time for the student to write or concentrate by themselves
-Reviews the last lesson by way of a short quiz, a warm-up game or activity, or something that shows that they comprehend what they learned.
-Keeps the student interested by instilling curiosity, asking questions about what they know about the subject, or a game to learn by.
-Generally, in one hour, there should be a few changes in activities. For small children, every 15 minutes is maximum for one activity, even shorter is better. Their concentration capacity is low. For older students, one 5 minute, one 15 minute, and one longer activity would be good.
-When you teach something, if it is a logic problem, you give an example, then you give another and ask for students to repeat that. Then you allow them to try another few problems together with the class, then alone. If it is rote learning, you repeat, repeat and then quiz game them (they like this).
It is always important to have the goal of the student being able to at some point use what you are teaching by themselves, and out of context.

A good lesson plan should be written in a language you understand...your own words. It should include a quick objective and a list of activities you would like to get through and in that order. It should include any resources or references to resources you may need. I also like to highlight important vocabulary that I want to hit on. I also add a section for reminders or things to do. I zerox my lesson plan template so that my schedule is always on the actual lesson plan so that I don't have to worry about additional copies of that for a sub. Also, I know it is popular to plan out a week at a time, but too me it works better to plan day to day with weekly and monthly ojbectives/goals in mind. I know my teaching the following day, student conferencing, etc...is dictated by student performance and leads my instruction.

hello!! for me a good lesson plan is the plan you feel more comfortable with. if you don't like the topic or the way you present it, can you imagine your students, the least of less. you have to be yourself in it. a good lesson plan mainly includes empathy, seeing with our students eyes, how would be the best way for them to understand it. remember you at school, what were the things you would never forget and never forgot? think about the way your teacher helped you understand it. show, show, show how delightful it is for you. that is the way to teach, that is the ways our parents have always taught us, isn't it? if we go to structures, will be short and very understandable instructions and a lot of exercises. hope it is helpful! see you!

In order to teach efectivly yoru students need to be interested and engaged! When students are interested in what they are doing and participating in a variety of hands-on experiences that provide them with real-life experiences they can add to their knowledge base and use to further their understanding, then you have a great lesson plan. I have found that beginning with text is a lesson killer. It is usually best to introduce a new unit, idea, or area of study through an activity, or even better, through a provocation for the students to experience first, the student's interests are peaked. You can then move on to group discussion to share prior knowledge and compile a map for where you would like to go from there. Then small group research becomes the next logical step, and the research can be student driven based on the discussions that have just happened in the classroom.

A Best Lesson Plan is a Bridge Between Student and Teacher. An Effective Lesson Plan Includes Variety of Activities which Supports the Content as well as ICT skills.

A good lesson plan inculcates lot of questions which help in brainstorming about a particular topic and hence students becomes interactive, Right teaching aids or games should be used and assessed appropriately . Content Knowledge has to be good and lesson should be constructive in nature and should be in a flow so that no misconceptions arises .
Best of luck !!
Best of luck !!
