Introduce the cycle of '''ongoing reflective practice''' – comprising classroom activity, (discussion) and reflection.
 
* Part 1: Plan! (You have just done that)
* Part 2: Teach! (Have your lesson plan to hand.)
* Part 3: Reflect on your own and then with buddy and perhaps a wider group
* Revise plan and repeat cycle
 
Introduce the notion of a reflective journal to support this whole process.
 
Questions to guide reflection:
* What did the children get out of the activity? How can you tell?
* How did you (as the teacher) find out what the children learnt / thought about the activities / got out of them?
* What did you (as the teacher) get out of it?
* Did you find it difficult?
* What would you do differently next time?
