How elementary teachers use this lesson plan

Fill it in for daily lessons, observations or sub plans, and keep a copy in your planning binder. A consistent layout makes it quicker to plan and easier for a substitute to follow. Elementary teachers working on reading, number sense, science topics and classroom routines can change every word to match the unit.

Large type and lots of white space help younger readers stay on task. Write the objective in student-friendly words you can say out loud at the start.
