Science and Inquiry

So how does inquiry affect our lesson plans? I really like the template that we are using, but I use it much more as a unit organizer and break it out by days and not by date. This allows for unpredictable changes in schedules. It also allows you to modify your plans and instruction based on student needs.

By detailing the activities and learning experiences, you know exactly what materials you need and can prepare ahead of time. It can be time consuming in the beginning, but it alleviates the work and sets your goals from the beginning of the unit.

I believe this lesson plan is effective in science, but I doubt I would use it in other areas.
