From my own perspective, I would offer creative suggestions for how the lesson plans might be created, whilst also offering to put together any visual presentations to assist them in the delivery of each lesson plan.

I could also offer to source any relevant resource is the teacher might need to enhance their lesson and help get across the relevant teaching points now during the lesson itself, I would watch and take note of any pupils who may require assistance in their learning and development on in particular, how I could assist them in understanding the lesson or the learning point.
