Special Education Groups
Allow for one reading heading and then have multiple groups under that heading. My groups are always changing and I like to have what students do on my plans. Also, it would be nice for you to add a special education progress monitoring portion. For example, I could click progress monitor under my "lesson bank" and pull up all of my data for each kid.

Allow for custom class order
From the "Classes" page, you could select how you would like to order your classes. Alphabetical, Class Time, or Custom. For Custom, you could have small boxes to the left of the class names in which one could enter their desired order. This would be helpful for people who follow more of a workflow routine rather than a set time schedule.

Embed function into OneNote
Although this is my way of planning, my school has embarked on using Microsoft products and we are using Teams and OneNote etc so it would be handy to be able to embed these lessons into a OneNote for admin to have access.

Integrate with Rediker
Make "Homework" tab in lesson sync with Rediker-PlusPortals. Planbook's lesson plans are better, but 2 parent accounts are hard to manage.

Add a two-week view
It would be nice to view two weeks at a time for longer-term planning. The month is too long for easy visuals, but two weeks allows for easier planning. When I used a paper planning system, two weeks at a time was highly effective.

Assign standards to classes and students
It would be great if we could also assign standards to specific classes and students, rather than lessons and units and be able to view these in a class/student overview page. I teach English language support and it would be very useful if I could have an overview page for each class /student which would include standards and brief notes on what they are working on.

Allow "nested" lessons
For example, during ELA, I have a whole group lesson, 4 different guided reading groups, spelling, etc.
I don't want to use sections to break this up, as I want to be able to use all the tabs for my planning, but I would like to see a way to show all of them together, as a concept, rather than individually.

Add an equation editor
As a math teacher, there are lots of times I need to be able to insert an equation that requires mathematical symbols beyond superscript and subscript. Right now I have to create the equation in another program, save it as a picture, then upload the picture. A full functioning equation editor would streamline the process and save me time each week.

Print lessons side by side when overlapping times
When there are overlapping times that things occur, it would be nice if they would give us the option to print it in blocks so that they show up side by side. It would give the visual that there are more than one activities going on at one time.

"Score Weight" Report
For data analysis: I would like to export a report of a specific class, and get a list of all the students and their average score for a specific "score weight". A specific "score weight" can have more than one assignment, so that is why I would like the average score. thanks in advance.

Add a View Toggle in the Lesson Bank
The Lesson bank feature is oriented vertically. Yet, old school teachers were trained to plan lessons and subjects horizontally in old school plan books. Is it possible to incorporate a view feature in the lesson bank feature so teachers could toggle, similar to the calendar view, to a week (5days) or Month (a 6x5 section) to be able to view the lesson banks differently. I know that I am spatially challenged but I would think this would help many, and you have part of the functionality already developed. Something to consider. Thank you! I really appreciate planbook and all the…

Standards search across all grades per discipline
Instead of being forced to select a single grade for standards, either eliminate this or allow a search section for "all grades"

Convert Google Calendar Events to Planbook Lessons
The current integration of Google Calendar is great, but google calendar events import as planbook events which means you cannot use them as a lesson. You cannot make notes or use any of the other features that make planbook so wonderful. It would be AMAZING if you could easily convert a google event to a planbook lesson. Ideally it would remain connected to Google after conversion but even if it didn't, it would still be very helpful. This would allow someone that is a heavy google calendar user to not only import their school related events from their google calendar…

Allow time view "auto-adjust" to be an option
Before the update, you could view your full week when the website occupied half of your computer screen. Now, it automatically adjusts to "Day" when splitting the screen and removes the option to view a week or month at a time. Sure, some people might like this forced auto-adjustment, but it should be a setting that I can turn off.
The only way to view a full week with a split screen is to use your browser's zoom out function, which is tedious and a downgrade from how things used to work.

Combo class for split grade levels
When teaching a split grade level it would be nice to have the day broken into two columns. This way I can see what both groups are doing at that time. For example, at 9:00am my 4th graders are having whole group reading and my 5th graders are completing independent stations. I would be able to write both grade level plans and see them for the same time frame with two columns.

Set number of lessons for the year
Please allow us to set how many lessons to complete for the year. This would be very helpful for those of us using templates. I would like to be able to set a template, say I want to use that template 90 times, and see just those (vs seeing the template copied for the entire calendar year).
