This lesson planning template walks you through planning a problem solving lesson. It guides you through each step of the lesson including the before, during, and after portions. This plan is used in my Filling the Room with Peas lesson plan.

This template can be used to unwrap or unpack math standards into digestible chunks. It is perfect for writing unit plans which include the concepts students must know and the skills they must be able to perform.

This form allows students to walk step by step through solving a multi-step problem. It guides them through drawing a picture, working out the math, explaining and justifying their answers. This is also used in my Filling a Room With Peas lesson plan.
