26. ASSESSMENT Must link directly back to identified instructional objectives It is how you evaluate whether the learning you specified has taken place

27. OTHER PARTS OF LESSON PLANS Title Topic Standards Students Time period Introduction Step-by-step procedures Guided/independent practice Summary Materials/equipment Modifications for special needs students notes
