A lesson plan tells you what to teach. Notes help your learners revise it, and a teacher’s guide helps you teach it well. On 25schools you can have both prepared with the lesson plan itself.
What you get
- Learners’ notes for the lesson: the content your learners need, written at their level.
- A teacher’s guide with background and guidance for delivering the lesson.
- Publishing to learners. Notes can be posted to the 25schools notes library automatically, where learners find them by subject.
How it works
- Start a CBC lesson plan as usual.
- Under Accompanying materials, tick learners’ notes, a teacher’s guide or both.
- Create the plan. The notes and guide are prepared with it.
- Choose in your lesson tool settings whether notes post to learners automatically.
Why it helps
Writing notes for every lesson is the work that most often gets dropped when time is short, and it is the work learners need most when they revise. Having them prepared with the plan means every lesson you teach leaves something behind for your learners to study from.
Published notes also reach learners beyond your own class, which builds your name as a teacher across the country.
Which plans include them?
Learners’ notes and teacher’s guides come with Teacher Pro and Premium. See the plans page.
