What do I LOVE about planbook.com? Let me list the reasons:
1. I travel between buildings. Having an online plan book means I don't ever have to worry about leaving my plan book at the wrong building. It also means I always have it available at home.
2. If a lesson runs long and I need to extend it to another week, it's simple to do -- simply click a button! This is also very helpful when a class gets canceled because of a field trip, assembly, or snow (cold) day.
3. I can easily copy and paste lessons (I don't have to rewrite them by hand) for multiple classes with the same lesson plan for the week.
4. I can attach files, website URLs, etc. to the lesson plans, so I have EVERYTHING in one place.
5. It's EASY to print the lesson plans out for a sub when my kids are sick -- and that ALWAYS happens at the most inopportune times, doesn't it?
6. It keeps my lesson plans from previous years. So, if a lesson went particularly well, I can go to the previous year's lessons, and simply copy and paste the lesson, materials needed, files, etc. in a couple of clicks!

There are so many reasons to love this inexpensive and easy-to-use resource! I am not getting any kickbacks or commissions from planbook.com for advertising their product. It's simply a product I love. It's made my life so much easier, and I want others to know about the product.
If you have any questions about this product, how to use it, etc. just let me know! They do have a free trial option. That's how I started. I tried it for a month for free, but to be honest, I knew after one week I would purchase it.
To check out more, go to www.planbook.com! Happy Planning!
