Lesson+Plans

The lesson plans feature of ProgressBook allows user to **format, save, search, edit and schedule lessons**. Lessons can be imported and scheduled from last year, and new lessons can be created and saved for later use.

Creating New Lesson Plans

Click on Enter Lesson Plans. Click on the ‘add new lesson’ link either from the Lessons area or under the lessons column on the dashboard.

On the Lesson Plan Maintenance screen, give the lesson a title and body (description). Private Notes can be entered for the teacher which are not viewable by anyone else, even if the lesson is shared or made public.



The information box at the bottom of the page is optional, but is highly recommended to make sharing and searching lessons easier on the Lesson Plan Search page. In the Share? Dropdown, you can specify how to share the lesson. Choose from one of the following: sharing screen to search for and view the lesson.
 * With teachers in my list** (default option) – will only allow the teachers that were specified on the Lesson Plan
 * No** – If this option is chosen only the author (teacher) will be able to see and search for the lesson.
 * Make public** - choosing this option will allow anyone in the district to search for and schedule the lesson for their classes.

The lesson will now be able to have Standards and attachments added to it as well as be scheduled for a class or classes.
 * Save the lesson plan.**

Note: The lesson must be scheduled before it will display under the Lessons tab on the class dashboard.
