Lesson Planner
Using GPA Teacher, you can manage and schedule your lesson plans. Click on the
Planner icon from the
Navigation Bar at the top of your window to get started.
Add a Lesson Plan
To create a new lesson plan, click on the
Add a lesson link in the sidebar menu on the right-hand side of your window. Note that if you already have lesson plan documents (e.g. in Microsoft Word), you will be able to upload and therefore reuse these documents.
In the
Lesson Planner window, enter a title for your lesson plan, then specify a date, the objectives, the unit, and the corresponding standards. You may upload a document by clicking the
Browse... button, selecting a document, then clicking the
Upload button. Be sure to select the class this lesson plan is designed for from the list of classes shown.
In the text area, you may type in your lesson plan. If you already have a lesson plan in another format, you can copy and paste the content into the text area. The text area also provides numerous formatting and editing features, including the ability to add images, bulleted lists, links, tables, etc.
Once you're done adding your lesson plan, be sure to click on the
Add Lesson button at the bottom of the window (not shown in the screen shot below).
Viewing Lesson Plans
To review your lesson plans, you may browse the interactive calendar, use the search box above the calendar to find specific lesson plans, or click on the
Calendar View or
Week View links at the bottom of the sidebar menu.
Clicking on the
Week View link shows your lesson plans for the given week. You may click on any day of the week to return to the full summary (shown in the screen shot above).
