I think I am still thinking like a student, except when I go mentoring. Then I have to think of things to do to keep my mentoree busy, which I guess is kind of like making a lesson plan. I don't think like a teacher in a normal classroom though. It doesn't occur to me, "How could I teach that differently?", or "What is a way I present that if I didn't have those tools?" I think that we should do a teaching exercise in class. Maybe prepare a lesson plan, or create a lesson to teach the class! Something that's hands on, and gets me thinking like a teacher, and then actually teaching a lesson.
Question: When I do start thinking like a teacher will I be taught to make lesson plans?
