• Abstract: Lesson preparation serves as the foundational starting point and critical phase of teaching, underpinning the creation of effective classrooms. Effective preparation enhances instructional quality and fosters teacher professional growth. Traditional research on lesson preparation often remains at a macro level, lacking detailed, practical guidance for frontline teachers, leading to a disconnect between “preparation” and “teaching”. This paper proposes the “Five-Stage Framework for Effective Lesson Preparation”, integrating cutting-edge educational concepts and innovative methodologies. It provides concrete, actionable guidance encompassing content reconstruction, determining instructional content and depth, selecting appropriate teaching methods, meticulously designing the instructional process, thorough preparation, and post-lesson reflection. The framework aims to elevate the effectiveness and innovativeness of lesson preparation, thereby promoting teacher professional development and enhancing teaching quality.
