![]() Although like I did, you may come to desire the need for more freedom and flexibility with your plans. They make perfect sense when you want to jot out an outline of your week to quickly refer to. I wouldn’t necessarily turn and throw your teacher plan book out of the window however. I also wanted to adjust the one size fits all boxes to fit the needs of my schedule. There were too many details I wished to include in my plans that just wouldn’t fit in the tiny spaces provided. I quickly found that the traditional teacher plan book was not going to work for me. ![]() Well my vision didn’t manifest itself as I thought. I had visions of myself sitting at my desk with my plan book, neatly writing in my lessons for the day and week. Lesson Planning Stylesīefore my first year of teaching began I drove myself to the local teacher supply store and bought myself a shiny new teacher plan book with pencils and lined paper decorating the front. In this post, I’ll share a few of my own ideas and resources for creating daily and weekly lesson plans as well as how to organize them. Lesson planning is a very individual process, taking on a number of different shapes and forms. However, thoughtful lesson plans set the tone for the day. They’re there for you to grab onto when your classroom is buzzing with activity and you can’t remember what you were going to do next! Don’t get me wrong, as teachers we should always be willing to step away from our lesson plans and steer our instruction in a different direction when our planned vision takes a turn in a different direction or our students show us they are in need of something else or something more. They help you feel less stressed and more confident. Well crafted lesson plans create a direction and a vision for your day. Not only do we have to do it, but it’s important that we do it well.
