My student teacher's lesson plans are poorly constructed. This week she didn't even have a lesson plan even though I've mentioned she needs to be more thorough in her lesson plans. I'm not quite sure how I should proceed. I'd appreciate your help.

I suggest you meet individually with your student teacher. Identify that it's unacceptable to not have a formal written lesson plan for observations. Set a goal that she needs to electronically submit lesson plans to you 24 hours prior to your subsequent observations. Finally, I suggest you review elements of a lesson plan.
