What is a Lesson Plan?

A lesson plan is a guide sheet for an instructor. It is not a song sheet. Reading exactly what the lesson plan says to the students is not teaching. An instructor must know the topics well enough to discuss and explain it. This requires the instructor to know the material in the manual and to organize a variety of teaching aids such as overhead transparencies, dummy firearms and ammunition, etc. in order to help explain and demonstrate the teaching points found in the lesson plans.

These lesson plans are a guideline. They should help a novice instructor to organize his or her thoughts and provide the material in a logical format for the student to learn from.

Like any lesson plan they are a work in progress. Instructors should adjust these lesson plans to reflect their own teaching techniques, student's learning requirements, schedule, training aid availability, and any other factors determined by that instructor.

For example the marksmanship subject has been broken into two separate lectures (rifle and shotgun). This was done in order to keep both lessons under 60 minutes each and to reflect the differences in the shooting these two types of firearms. The instructor may wish to combine these two lectures into a single lecture. When he or she teaches the standing shooting position, he or she could then show the difference in mounting these two types of guns. Same shooting position, two different mounting styles.
