Lesson Planning: 4 Organisational Tips for Teachers

1. Organisation of Material

• Keep documents and material somewhere you can easily access it. Paper
• for the most part is now out of fashion, so we recommend you use a
• flash drive or create a block of online notes that way you can access and share content more easily.Organise files into different categories such as calendar
• lesson plan, class information and student presentations.
• As your needs
• increase, you can create new folders and topics ad hoc.

2. Lesson Plan

• Establish a pattern to plan student lessons and update it when necessary. For example, if you create a lesson plan using GoConqr Notes ,
• you can review it, add or remove information (including videos and
• images) make it private or share it with your colleagues whenever
• necessary.
• Lay out subjects for students to be as organized as
• possible. Write down the important information (work, notes, test
• dates). Always write the title of the subject, which class is taking
• that subject, the date and, if possible a short summary of the
• lesson. Information should be clear and succinct.
• You can create this plan using a Mind Map or note and use the "Play Mode" function to display the contents and then simply share that Mind Map with students.
• 

3. Communication

• You can create a Study Group to
• communicate with students outside of the classroom, share content, and
• send messages.
• Often the question can come from another class, in this
• case a Study Group is the solution for interaction and sharing ideas.
• As a teacher you can share class material with your students and keep track of different classes
• 

4. Calendar Activities

• Divide activities into tasks such as: Lesson Plan, Activities for
• correction and Activities to share. Creating lists gives you more
• control over everything and helps to prioritize activities.
• Create an organized work schedule with these tips:
• (i)
• Determine the number of hours students have for each activity during
• the day and week. Be realistic and seek to balance your routine
• activities including leisure and rest time. (ii) Choose the best time, (day or night) and set the start time and end. (iii) Reuse the weekly cycle as to avoid repetition of work.
