Abstract
In her article ‘Companion guides for lesson planning: a planning template and the lesson plan pro forma’ (2016a), May Pang offers a critique of my earlier article, ‘Affordance, learning opportunities, and the lesson plan pro forma’ (Anderson 2015), in which I call for changes to typical ELT lesson plan pro formas to enable them to be compatible with a wider range of teaching approaches, especially with regard to how learning opportunities are predicted, and how affordance is dealt with while teaching. I would like to begin by thanking Pang (2016a) for her critique of my article, and I welcome the discussion. Before responding to her criticisms, I would like to commend Pang’s useful suggestions for supporting pre-service teacher education through the use of a planning template and simplified lesson planning pro forma (Pang 2016a, b). However, Pang’s interest in the role of lesson planning in teacher education has, I fear, led to her misreading the intention of my article, and the arguments I put forward therein.
