And every summer I get all inspired and start planning. And I usually end up changing those first plans a million times, but I still do it anyway!
Here's what I used to plan last year. I know I know, it's a calendar. And it's paper. I'm old fashioned I guess but I like to see the whole month at once.
I didn't write daily plans in here but a "gist" of each week, added important school and personal dates and when I had it the way I liked it, I could add it in my district's online lesson plan. I do this because the online planner is not very friendly... AT ALL. But it's a requirement so that's the way it goes. :)
This year I decided to try the same idea again, but I found a different calendar that I like a bit better, and it was $6.97 at Wal-Mart!!
As you can see it has the monthly at a glance, which I really liked, but it also had the days...
I thought this might be nice to kind of lay out particular lessons and have a bit more room if needed.
And... it's always in pencil :)
I'm going to try to use the notes column to remind me of all the cool things I found on Pinterest and the other blogs I follow!
And yes, I've already started the first six weeks :)
and here are my teaching resources that I'll be using all the time!
I really wish that the district planner were easy to use, but for the actually planning part I'll keep with this :)
