Here are a few sample videos on how to do this exercise.
The Standard Lunge:
Note her advice about not allowing your knee to go beyond your toe. This is important for injury prevention. As I mentioned, you could use dumbbells to add resistance.
The Reverse Lunge:
This one is done by dropping one of your legs back (instead of stepping forward).
The Walking Lunge:
As the name implies, this version allows you to actually walk forward. He also mentions the importance of not allowing your knee to go beyond your toes.

I have a problem with my left knee. Actually I over trained my legs doing squats with heavy weights. Now I have to slow down with leg work out. Is there any exercise that can replace lunge and squats?
You may want to try using the leg press one leg at the time. Just go slow and only bend the knee as far as is comfortable. Be sure you place your feet so your knee is not bending out beyond your toes.
