My five essential lesson plan components include standards, an anticipatory set, a list of adaptations, clear closure, and meaningful reflection questions. We describe these essentials and how to hack 'em to save you lesson planning time. 

We also discuss three important mindset shifts that are necessary for effective lesson planning. The first step is to ensure that you have all your resources ready before you sit down to plan. Next step: spending every night of the week planning lessons. Finally, use a template and a lesson at a glance.
