You’ve got the standards, an idea, or an activity all set in your mind, but fitting it all onto a blank lesson plan template just isn’t working. Let Brisk do it for you. Just use the "lesson plan" feature within the “Create” Brisk dashboard to easily turn your specific topic into an effective lesson plan. 

Weekly and Monthly Lesson Plan Templates

After that, click Create, then Lesson Plan, select what you would like included, and Brisk will follow. Don’t forget to let Brisk know if you want the lesson plan to be weekly, monthly, etc, in the text box. In return, you'll receive a fully customizable template. This template will include sections for lesson objectives and break down each day of the week into introduction, activities, discussion, and conclusion. 

If you are looking for something even more specific, simply add details to the text box. Some teachers like to include a specific grade level, subject area, or sections they need. 

These templates will even offer a time breakdown for each section. Like the free template above, this weekly template is fully customizable — whether you want to provide detailed instructions or just a few points, Brisk can adapt or change to your needs and ensure you are meeting students’ individual needs as well.
