How to use LessonGrid
LessonGrid has two main paths: a simple lesson browser for fast teaching access, and a planner workspace for pacing, standards, exports, videos, sharing, and class materials.
2. Use Planner for pacing
Tap Planner to see the quarter grid by week and subject. Use it when you want to understand sequence, pacing, and workload across the quarter.
3. Expand Detailed Notes
On the lesson screen, tap the expand control on Detailed Lesson Notes. The notes open full-screen for teacher reading mode, then minimize back into the lesson workspace.
4. Generate class materials
Use Generate Class Materials to produce warm-ups, mini-lesson support, guided practice, independent practice, exit tickets, vocabulary, misconceptions, slides, and worksheet ideas.
5. Keep standards visible
TEKS and NGSS chips appear near lessons and planning views. Tap a standard chip to inspect what the lesson is aligned to.
6. Open lesson-linked video
If a video is available for a lesson, it appears as one support artifact beside class materials, export, and sharing.
7. Export PDFs
Use export actions to save weekly plans, quarter plans, lesson plans, and coverage views for print, planning meetings, substitute folders, or offline review.
8. Share inside LessonGrid
Create a secure QR code or share link so parents and students open the lesson inside LessonGrid instead of receiving a public file.
9. Personalize appearance
Open Profile, then Appearance to choose System, Light, or Dark mode and pick a curated accent color.
The lesson screen is the workspace
Once a lesson is open, the teacher can read detailed notes, generate support materials, open video, export a plan, or share securely without losing lesson context.
- Detailed notes are built for focused reading.
- Support actions stay connected to the lesson.
- Standards remain visible while planning and teaching.
