Lesson Planners

What Lesson Planners is

Lesson Planners is a web-based weekly planning platform designed for teachers. Its five-day calendar uses a drag-and-drop grid to arrange classes and move between weeks. Teachers can generate multi-day lesson plans from curriculum topics, with objectives, activities, and materials; teaching-style tags and custom instructions can guide the generated content. The platform includes more than 500 Common Core standards and AI-suggested standards alignment. A curriculum tracker lets teachers upload a pacing guide, mark topics complete, follow progress bars, and generate lessons from the tracker sidebar.

Lessons can have worksheets, rubrics, and other resources attached, and can be exported as PDFs. Listed classroom tools include attendance and behavior tracking, seating charts, exit tickets, and weekly journaling. Students can access lessons and exit tickets through a Student Portal. Starter is a free-forever plan with a weekly calendar view, basic lesson planning, PDF export, a standards library, and a limit of two classes. Pro Teacher adds unlimited classes, AI lesson generation, curriculum tracking, classroom tools, standards auto-alignment, all seven themes, and priority support. School or District includes the Pro features plus an admin dashboard, school calendar management, curriculum templates, usage analytics, onboarding, and training, with custom pricing.
