5E lesson plans?

I found the 5E lesson plan to be different from the MSMC lesson plan, because it is more student-centered. With the 5E lesson, students are more active in their own learning and can construct their own knowledge with the guidance of the teacher. If I were the principal I would encourage my teachers to use this for some of their lessons. Direct Instruction is still something that needs to be done in order to get through the curriculum, but learning also has to be fun and allow for students to find their own understanding and the inquiry model of the 5E lesson allows for this.
