Lesson planning and lesson plans
The introduction doesn't say much, but there are loads of links all on the subject of lesson plans. Definitely worth a browse when you are short on ideas.

Lesson Plans
A comprehensive site with suggestions and guidelines for writing lesson plans from Danyal's TESOL DL site.

The NYTimes Daily Lesson Plan
Apart from being a great source of interesting and topical lessons, I like to use this source to see how different teachers from a variety of disciplines subdivide their plans.

Instant Lessons
This is one of the few membership sites that I would actually advocate joining. I've used numerous lessons and they've all worked. Particularly good at integrating skills work and ideal for that sub lesson you've only got 5 minutes to prepare for. Have a look at their sample lessons and try them out.

English lessons and tests
An interesting site given to me by a couple of teachers who swear by it. Personally, I found it took too much trawling to find lessons I wanted, but check it out and let me know if you disagree.
