About the Course

Cluster/Batch lesson planning is an efficient process where you plan several weeks or months of instruction at one time.  In this course, educators will be guided through the process of planning a unit, month, quarter, or the like in full.  This includes standards, curriculum mapping, and a day by day breakdown with activities.  This course is appropriate for all teachers and has the potential to help teachers have freedom from work outside of school hours.  There will be collaboration and work time. 

Teachers will actively participate in online learning to further develop their understanding of backward design, assessment, instructional strategies, and curriculum. Specific applications will be made to practice, as teachers will outline a lesson using the UbD template for one of their courses. 

This course is appropriate for secondary science teachers.  Teacher librarians, instructional coaches, and administrators are invited to join us; they will be asked to work on a planning template in a discipline of their choice.

Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to:

  • Curriculum map units in connection to state standards.
  • Breakdown a unit to include daily tasks and assessments.
  • Identify how and when to implement different activities and assessments across a unit.
  • Effectively plan for a unit in 1-3 hours to have more work/home balance.

Good for newbies. Rest stay clear.
Brianna Clarke
The course has awesome ideas to make planning a little more simple, yet still end up with an effective unit of lesson plans.
Serena Williams
As someone who agonizes and spends an extraordinary amount of time planning, this course was a gift! I learned ways to plan to help me to quickly get my big ideas into a manageable and non-overwhelming unit scope, monthly sequence and daily lessons. This course was great!
