Change the cover page each year so we don't see the same face every time we log in. Maybe a nature scene, or anything with lighting and artistic composition or flair.

Lesson Banks
While teaching a unit that I copy and past from my Lesson Bank into my Daily Plans, I often make changes to those lessons as I'm teaching them or add additional resources items.
Why can't we have on option to update our Lesson Bank immediately with the changes we make to the Daily Lessons from that Lesson Bank
Too often I loose my changes because I made them in the Daily Lessons as I teach each day because I have to remember to also go back to the Lesson Bank and update those lessons also with my changes.
It's so…
1 voteGood news, we have added Lesson Linking to Planbook! Rather than copying lessons from a lesson bank or between classes, you can now create a LINK to the source lesson. This means that any changes you make will automatically show in ALL places where the lesson in linked!

Allow units to be assigned to TEACHER, and not a class/year.
Create a TEACHER lesson bank, organized by units. Allow teachers to assign the lesson they create to a unit, and be able to access that unit/lesson bank from ANY class ANY year.
3 votesYou can now create Lesson Banks, with units and lessons, to store curriculum outside of your class schedule.
Lesson Linking, when combined with Lesson Banks, provides teachers and schools with a powerful curriculum management tool. Teachers can collaborate on the development of curriculum (classes, units, lessons), store the curriculum in lesson banks, and set permissions for who can view or edit the banks.
Teachers can then either COPY or LINK the lesson banks into their plans. COPY will allow teachers to create a new set of lessons that are solely for their individual use. LINK will establish a link to the source lesson, such that any changes made will automatically show in both the source and the target lessons of the link.

Export Attendance
Now that we can keep track of attendance is there going to be anything added in which we can export the attendance for the class? Or at the very least, check it on the website. We can take attendance, but I haven't seen a way to go back and look at an overview of attendance either by student or by class.
4 votesFrom the Grades page, the Print to PDF button will allow you to print or export your student attendance. When you can, give it a try and let us know if you have any questions. Thanks!

Allow a Google Classroom class to be matched up with its Planbook counterpart
I like that I can now see assignments from Classroom in Planbook. It shows up at the top of the page for the due date. It would be great if the class on Classroom could be connected to its Planbook class so that the assignment showed up within the class it was assigned for.

don't skip two weeks ahead when I click the arrow button to the succeeding week.
Whenever my account gets logged out and I try to click towards the following week, it prompts me to log in. However, after getting logged in, I am brought to the original page where I started. If I clicked the arrow to move forward to the following week, it skips two weeks ahead counting the initial click as a command.

Create a Specific Sub Template
It would be great to have a specific Sub Template that includes the schedule, plans, plus the sub notes, all in one. Additionally, the template could have large gaps between the classes to provide room for substitutes to leave notes on how each class period went.

In this view, you can define exactly what information your substitutes will see, and you can also include “View Notes” to store any common information that will assist the substitute in managing your classroom.

Bump/Extend Relica lessons
I have new teachers on my team that REPLICA their classes from me. However, they are in charge of planning lessons for those subjects. I think they should have the option under their Lesson Actions to bump or extend lessons as well.
11 votesYou can now link units and lessons with a colleague or team, and lesson dates are not required to match! This means teachers can now collaborate on the same set of lessons even if they have different schedules. This can also be used for a teacher who has multiple sections of the same subject, as each section can now be on its own schedule.
