Support materials are necessary and breathe life into your lesson plan. They promote engagement from the students. 

Assessments need to be linked to communicated / established standards. 

Objectives need to be specified with clear links to the course content covered. They are the literal stones on the path taken to mastering a new concept. 

I need lesson plans to help me stay organized and on schedule with course content. It helps to ensure that the learning objectives are aligned with the other classes as well. It also keeps me prepared for the unexpected. 

It is very important to understand how the students engage and to obtain what they may already know by testing their knowledge with a quiz. This will help when preparing your lesson plan.
