Adapt a plan you did not write without losing what it was for

Lesson 6 of 6 · Planning

1 · Learn the move · Verified-data override

The plan from the department, the colleague, or last year's teacher is almost right for your class and wrong in three places. Adapting it by hand means rewriting all of it. Adapting it with a model means stating what is fixed and what is yours to change, in that order. The verified data is the plan's objective, its assessment and its standard: those are not up for revision, and you say so. The override is your classroom: the period is 42 minutes not 55, the text they have is the abridged one, half the class did the prerequisite unit last year and half did not. Ask for the plan rewritten under the override with the fixed parts untouched and quoted back to prove it. Then read the three places it changed. Whether the override was right is a judgment about your students, which is why the model needs none of them by name to make the plan and you need all of them to decide.

Here is a lesson plan I did not write: [paste]. FIXED, do not change: the objective, the assessment and the standard, quoted back to me word for word at the top of your output. OVERRIDE with my classroom: [paste the facts: period length, the text my students actually have, what they did and did not do last year, class size]. Rewrite the plan under the override, keeping the fixed parts untouched. Then list every change you made and the override fact that caused it. Do not change anything not caused by an override fact.

2 · Your turn. You write the prompt

A Ridgeway High chemistry teacher inherits a stoichiometry lesson from the department, written for a 55-minute period and a lab set she does not have. She pastes it with the objective and assessment marked FIXED, and the override: 42 minutes, no lab set, a class where half did the prerequisite unit with a different teacher. The rewrite keeps the objective and assessment word for word, drops the lab for a worked demo, and adds a five-minute prerequisite check at the start. Three changes, three override facts beside them. The lesson is still the department's; the day is hers.

Write the prompt for this scenario as given, or swap in a real one from your own work. The score works the same either way.
