Time-Saving Lesson Planner Reviews

Teachers in these reviews talk about saving time while building, revising, copying, and organizing lesson plans.

It’s easy to use, very well organized, has the standard cards in each lesson, and makes lesson planning easy and efficient. I also love being able to access my lessons wherever I am at and being able to access links in my lessons.

This planning program is exactly what I have been looking for since I started teaching 21 years ago. Nothing else I ever tried or created has done everything I wanted it to, so I quickly abandoned them...[CP] meets all my planning needs!

I can share with my colleagues, make changes easily without crossing things out or erasing, and I can set up the template the way I want. If I get sick, I can quickly access my plans from home, download a pdf, and send them to my school’s secretary to be printed for the sub.

This program is a time and life saver, I don't understand how I did anything before it.

Your AI is your most amazing feature yet! You just saved me hours of planning time by helping to correlate my lessons to our new standards and by offering so many differentiation options.

The ease and convenience of structuring your own online lesson plans paired with State and National goals combines to make a perfect lesson plan book that is available at school or from home.

The ease of adding standards to lessons was my a-ha moment. The colors and ability to change schedules, bump lessons, and copy from one prep to another are common sense features that make typing my plans far more convenient than writing them down. I can type much more detailed plans in less time than handwriting them myself.

Makes organizing my classroom instruction organized and efficient. I love how it connects with Google Drive along as well as all my teaching standards. It's easy to share with colleagues and student teachers. All the 'required' elements of a lesson plan are included.

I've been using Common Curriculum for several years now. It is so easy to work with. You can be simple with it or as detailed as you want. The people at Common Curriculum are so helpful and quick to get back to you.
I can't find anything wrong with it!

CC is a no brainer! The organization, responses and response time are both professional and much faster than anyone else, user friendliness, practicality. I love you guys!

This has been a lifesaver for me! I teach four different preps and this has been the most efficient and effective way to create lesson plans. I've tried different lesson plan templates over the course of my 16 years of teaching, and I have to say that these are my favorite by far!
