Kindergarten teachers: Where can I find examples of lesson plans to use this fall in student teaching?
Also, how can you tell how long to make a lesson plan for? Any rule of thumb for how long a lesson plan will last? Like how long will an activity last?
I know that is so vague. Is there like a chart that shows how long certain activities typically last, any kind of measure of how long things last with this age group?

First off, you need to find out what is required of you to teach… you need to find out the standards and follow them. Most places anymore use set reading and math series which will pretty much spell out all of your lessons for you. If you need to fill in maybe science or social studies, then you need to see how much time is alloted and work from there.
www.educationworld.com is a great resource for both articles on teaching and lesson plans.
If I had 30 minutes for science, I’d do about 10 minutes direct explination/instruction and the rest would be hands on/discussion with the kids.
K is a very tough grade because the kids are coming in on such different levels… good luck! 😉

I teach kindergarten. However, you will need to plan most of this with your cooperating teacher. Regardless of how you feel/what you know you will need to follow their lead. —On average, I try not to keep an activity going for more than 10-15 minutes unless the students are moving in some way.

I don’t teach Kindergarten now but did my student teaching in kindergarten. I would suggest very short, very active lessons for kindergartners. atozteacherstuff.com has a lot of good information. Good luck! 🙂
