Goals of the Session
Learn the steps of the instructional cycle.

Be able to apply the steps of the

instructional cycle to the course you
currently teach.
Explore strategies to improve

instructional delivery.
What is the cycle of instruction?
The cycle of instruction is the basic way a

lesson is presented to students.
The model that we will explore today is

based on Madeline Hunter’s Seven Step
Lesson Plan.
Why do teachers need to follow an
instructional cycle?

A well-written lesson or idea can be

ineffective if not presented in a way that
leads to student acquisition of the concept
or skill.
The big idea for the students is to

demonstrate understanding of the concept
or skill.
The big idea for the teacher is to get

feedback from students as to whether they
‘get it’ or not.
All Steps Every Day?

No! The instructional cycle may be

completed in one lesson or may stretch
over a period of several days.
Now, in a perfect world this cycle would

run smoothly in every classroom every
day. You will divert from this outline;
however, try your best to implement the
complete cycle on a consistent basis. It
will help you on your way to becoming a
master teacher!
Step 1


“Do Now”, relate today’s lesson to

Statement of Objective-2-3 min.

Tell students exactly what they will learn

and why it is important
State an aim for what will be

accomplished.
Step 3


Teacher -20 min.
Actual teaching of the lesson – what the

teacher does in front of the class to present
the knowledge, skill or process, examples:
