But by the discussion you have Just done, we may conclude that those components could be summarized into three important aspects; the purpose of the instruction (question 1), the learning activity (questions), and the feedback or evaluation (questions).

Based on the ministry regulation, number 41, year 2007, the process standard, it was explained that a Lesson plan is the elaboration of syllabus which illustrates the teaching and learning activities to achieve the goals of the basic competency.Every teacher who uses school curriculum, should design a plan completely and systematically to make the teaching ND learning interactive, inspiration, Joyful, challenging, and be able to motivate students to be active, creative, and self reliance, in line with their talent, motivation, their physical and psychological development.

Stages of Learning Activity : 10. Evaluation The procedure and the instruments for assessment should be based on the indicators for competency achievement and refer to the evaluation standard 11. Learning Resource Selecting the learning resource should conceder the competency standard and the basic competency, as well as the learning material, the teaching and learning activities and also the indicators for competency achievement.Activity 3 - Take any English lesson plan you have had.

- Try to make a Judgment for this (excellent, good, or poor) take for consideration? A. Individual differences - What criteria do you Consider the individual differences concerning students' level of mastery, interest, motivation, potential, emotion, learning style, special need, learning speed, socio cultural background, values, and living environment.

Link and Unity Lesson plan is designed considering the links and the unity among the competency standard, basic competency, learning material, instructional activities, and indicators for competency achievement, evaluation, and learning resources.Lesson plan should accommodate the thematic instructions, links with other subjects, across the learning aspects, and cultural diversity.

F. Employing the information and communication technology Lesson plan is written to foster the use of information and communication technology, integrated, systematic, and effective depending on the situation and condition. D. The Stages of Developing a Lesson Plan best practices for the educational field. (Sorrow, Janice.

2006). In Indonesian schooling, the Curriculum of School Level (KITS) has already been set up by the content standard (SKI) and the graduation standard (SSL).Therefore students should e able to achieve what so called the minimum requirements which have been stated in those two documents. The students' interest relates to the learning materials and depends on how the learning activity is conducted.

Therefore you must employ various kinds of methods and approaches. The use of teaching aids and media may also be inspiring and increasing the students' motivation. According to the process standard (Educational Ministry Regulation no. 41 , the year of 2007) a lesson plan is a unit plan which covers one basic competency and the time span may be more than one meeting.But the English curriculum and syllabus developed in he content standard are directed to follow the two cycles (oral and written), and the four stages (building knowledge of the field, model of the text, Joint construction, and independent construction). Therefore, English lesson plans should be integrated units which may cover more than one single basic competency; listening and speaking for the oral cycle, reading and writing for the written cycle.

Integrating all the four basic skills will also be possible.Here are the stages of designing an English Lesson Plan : Mapping the Competency Standard and the Basic Competency Determining the indicators for basic competency achievement Setting up the Purpose Selecting the Learning Material Structuring the stages of instruction Preparing the assessment The flow of a lesson development : This stage is ideally done when designing the syllabus. The Competency Standard and the Basic Competency which can directly picked up from the documents are to be analyzed and put into units.English or language in general has special characteristics which might be different from other subjects.

The competency based curriculum developed in the content standard is prepared to teach students the communicative competency which covers the sectional competence, linguistic impotence, socio cultural competence, and strategic competence. The competencies are interrelated to each other and the core of those four competencies is the discourse competence. (Curriculum Barberries Components, Bases Innings, 2004) Diagram 5: Model Components Communication (Cell-Marcia et al. 995:10) In general, there four Competency Standards; Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing which are states in the documents of content standard (S'), attachment for English subject. Your task is to select the basic competencies which can be combined into unit plans considering the suggested approach in designing the stages f instruction (four stages in two cycles). Here is examples of mapping the basic competencies : Class VI"' Semester 1 SKI 1 Dan 3.

2 Monomers manna Dan Lankan retorted Dan Unspeaking manna Dan Lankan retorted: monologue descriptive Dan recount 2. Determining the indicators for basic competency achievement. Indicators reflect measurable or observable behavior to show the achievement for he basic competency which will be used as the reference of the assessment.Indicators for achievement should be written by using operational verbs covering the knowledge, attitude, and skills. I. E.

: - knowledge : mentioning, interpreting, defining, completing, summarizing, explaining, developing, etc. Helping, proposing, serving, - attitude : participating, adjusting, inspiring, etc. - skill : expressing, practicing, fixing, arranging, demonstrating, Educational Ministry Regulation No. 41 , about the Process Standard states that the Purpose of Instruction describes the process and the learning outcome expected to e achieved by the students referring to the basic competency.

The two aspects you have to include in setting up the purpose are : a. The process It reflects the expected students activities during the lesson. The activities should student centered. The more students involved through out the lesson would be the better. Consider the students' motivation, interest, challenge, and creativity. I.

E. Animal pair, sound identification, gap-filling, predicting, Listening comprehending etc. Speaking . Interactive communication activities, role playing, scenario, speech, debating, interviewing, dialogue, etc. - Reading scanning, skimming, reading intensively, predicting, classifying, etc.

: - responding meaning to different kinds of text type. - expressing meaning for different kinds of purposes - pronouncing, reading aloud etc. 4. Selecting Learning Material he The learning materials prepared for the lesson plan should be based on the students' literacy level; formative, functional, or informative. The latest is meant for high school. In formative level, students are taught how to use English to accompany actions, participate in classroom and school interactions, and recognize simple written English.

While in the functional level students are supposed to learn to use English to get things done, for survival purposes (buying and selling, asking and giving permission, making and canceling appointments, read and write simple texts, read popular science, etc. ) You have to remember that our English curriculum is text based. Therefore we have to select the material according to the suggested text type. For Junior high school are descriptive, procedure, recount, narrative, and report.

While news item, discussion, explanation, exposition, and review are for senior high school. Eternal will be applicable as long as they can meet the curriculum requirement of teaching the students for communicative purposes. They might be presented in all types of communication, transactional conversation, Interpersonal conversation, Informational texts (spoken and written) in the daily life context. For example : Transactional conversation : giving directions in various contexts (kitchen, street etc. ) Interpersonal conversation : talking about how to do things casually for the sake of maintaining conversation 5.Structuring the stages of instruction The lesson is carried out through three phases; Pre-activity, Whilst-activity, and Post- activity.

A. Pre- activity students' motivation and to focus the students' attention as well, so that they can participate actively during the lesson. B. Whilst activity This is suggested to follow the two-cycle approach (oral and written) and the four takes of lesson development; Building Knowledge of the Field (BOOK), Modeling of the Text (MOT), Joint Construction of the Text COOT), and Independent Construction of the Text (COT).

This approach is in line with the flow off lesson mentioned in the process standard; exploration, elaboration, and confirmation. Exploration = BOOK Elaboration = MOT confirmation =SCOT, and 'COT c. Post activity evaluation, reflection, feedback, and follow up activities. 5. Preparing the assessment Assessment is a method of evaluating student performance and attainment, Microsoft@ Incarnate@ 2009. This stage focuses on ensuring that your students have arrived at their intended destination and has been formulated as the indicators for competency achievement.

For this, you will need to gather some evidence that they have done. You usually can do by gathering students' work and assessing this work using some kind of grading rubric that is based on the indicators. You could also give test to the students on various domains as well. Here are what we have to assess : - Communication that happens in texts - Students' ability to create and respond to texts - In listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
