=Populating the Lesson Plan Template (Teacher Side)= January 27, 2011 Location: Districts

Each teacher will create a lesson plan aligned to an essential question. Download and review the Lesson Plan Teacher Template form. The Adobe PDF version is provided for easy printing and the other is a Microsoft WORD document that can be modified once you download and save your own copy. Upload the completed T-template form for your individual lesson. Your Teacher Learning Center Director will then work with an experienced PBU developer to integrate the lesson plans into an integrated unit.
