I've never been able to use a lesson plan book because there are not enough compartments in the day. I teach anywhere from 6-10 lessons a day depending on the schedule. I've tried various ways of lesson planning in the past, but I finally found a system last year that worked well for me. I created a template from a simple Word document so I can add or delete columns each semester as needed.
This year I had to add a second page. I now have one page with academic lessons...
and one for Social Thinking Groups...
I hole punch the pages each week and hang them with notebook rings on the front of an open file box.
The box contains info that I need at my fingertips. I like this system because it keeps the lesson plans within sight. Since Orlanda and I co-teach social groups, she can also view the lesson plans if I am held up with a student issue.
If you'd like to use this template, feel free to download it
here.
I'd love to hear about how you write your lesson plans. Please share your ideas in the comments!
