Melissa I would be more than happy to share what I have for my plans. You can email me or tell me how to post the template on. I just came up with the template that I have now and so far really liking the way it looks and has information.

judy5ca LOL, you're right, the boxes are small! I write the lesson topic and essentials in my plan book, but I also write longer plans for many lessons. I keep these in binder sleeves in a binder for the appropriate unit (eg, I have built units for all of my writing units and science units. I need more info to teach well than one small box). Judy
