Are you teaching this semester and feeling overwhelmed with trying to create and schedule lesson plans? If so, check out Planboard, where users can plan their class schedules and build their lesson plans all in one place. The main page of the app contains daily and weekly planners where users can map which classes are coming up and what the corresponding lesson plans will be. Each daily entry contains an area where users can add their lesson plans, with space to include attachments like worksheets or statements of the standards that the class will cover. To make things even easier, the app allows users to create and save templates that can be easily copied over to new class days. The weekly view of the main page includes a calendar for the upcoming week, and even lets users add in blocks of non-class time to help keep their schedules organized.
