Lesson & Classroom Observation Form

Pre-service teachers can use this form when assigned hours for field experiences, observations, student teaching, or internships. Students in high school may also want to use this as a form for job shadowing a teacher. Additionally, mentor teachers can use these forms for their student teachers or novice teachers.

The questions posed on the sheet are as follows:

-What was the objective of the lesson? How do you know?

-How did the activities of the class accomplish and support the objective?

-Give a synopsis of the class period.

-What would you have done differently?

-What did you appreciate and admire about the lesson and instructor?

-Describe the appropriateness of the activities for the developmental age of the students.

-What lesson format was used? (Madeline Hunter, 5E, EDGE Protocol, Charlotte Danielson, Flow Learning, etc.)
