I think folks go both ways. I've heard of folks using a separate laptop or a split screen so they can see the lesson notes, using note-cards with a condensed version of commands to hit, and just reading over the lesson several times and then winging it. I think the note-less approach makes it easy to keep a pulse on student engagement, but a lot of time has gone into tuning the current ordering of commands within lessons. Striking the right balance without the prep-time to learn both the current ordering and supporting reasoning (so you know when you should break from the usual script) by heart will be an individual-instructor decision.
