Scrolling Month View
It would be handy to have the month view show in a continuous fashion so that I could scroll down (or using arrows?) to show prior / next weeks. So, for example, I show April in the month view, but the first week was spring break, so I really want to show the 2nd week of April as the top row, with more rows showing more weeks (extending into May).
So it would be great to either specify the start/end dates for month view (instead of just the month) or allow month view to extend so I can see upcoming…

Copy or Add Year - Select lesson sections / attachments
When importing lessons from another teacher, you get the lesson, the standards and the notes. I would like to choose what part I want to import. Most the time I only want to share the lesson, not the notes as they are specific to my class.

Default hyperlinks to new tab
I read a post that said this was completed, but links do not open in a new tab by default. I would like this to at least be an option if not default. I like to use my plans with links to resources so I dont have to tab between documents and can open when I want them from the page. Having to navigate back to my lesson plan after using a link is tedious.

Partial "No School Day"
Frequently we have assemblies or events in which a few classes are canceled for the day. Rather than having to go into each one and choose "No Class Day" for each one, it would be nice when adding an event, it automatically canceled classes during the time of the event. When choosing "No School Day" it cancels the entire day and not just the events during the event time.

Add class location
Not everyone always teaches in the same room. Having the option to list the location of the class on the plan would be very useful, particularly when the location has an impact on the types of activities that can be carried out in the lesson, for example, when a science lesson is held in a regular classroom rather than a laboratory.

Use Google Classroom assign date
Google classroom assignments should show up in planbook for the day they are assigned. Give people the option to choose if they show up on the due date.

Delete multiple lessons at once
having a check box to delete multiple lessons at once on the teacher plan book page would be awesome. Especially when you have a lot to delete!

Automatically link all lessons between classes
I appreciate the "link lessons" feature, but for those who have duplicate classes, it would be nice to set a particular class to automatically link to its duplicate by default. It would save the steps of having to click the dropdown and manually link each lesson each day.

Allow week to be Mon to Sun
Many European calendars use a start day of Monday, instead of Sunday. I would like to adjust the calendar to have a start day of Monday so I can see and print the week plans as Monday through Sunday. TY

User defined codes in gradebook
I love the gradebook. I'd like an option where I can create my own codes. For example, if a student isn't in our room because of a behaviour issue, then I'd like to put NIR (not in room) under an assignment or SH for sent home. I'd also like to have an option where I can just put a checkmark that it was completed or one of my codes for why it wasn't.

Teacher search by state/subject
I'm teaching Arkansas History for the first time this upcoming year. I'd like to find other similar teachers in our state that may be using planbook.com and might be willing to share lessons. The only way to accomplish such a request is to be able to search for teachers by subjects and ask if they'd be willing to share or collaborate. I also teach German which isn't too common in Arkansas so it would be nice to collaborate with teachers of other states where German is more prevalent. With all of the technology we have, it is a shame that…

Add template to bank lessons
I would like to be able to save my template so that when I am adding additional lessons to the bank for a unit it will automatically pop up with the template instead of me having to copy it into the blank extra lesson every time.

Print notes and To Do with weekly plans
I would love to be able to print my "notes" on the same page as my "weekly plans". I can only print them on two separate pages and it is slightly frustrating. I end up just writing my notes on the page so I don't have to waste paper, since we are a "Green School".

Add students to certain periods only
I love planbook but it's not completely geared towards secondary. I teach high school and we have many periods. I love the feature where you can add students and grades but you can't add certain students to certain class periods. You can only add them to a class only. I would like to keep all my students separated by periods, not all 160 together. It's not practical when entering grades. It's not practical to add a different class for each period if it's the same prep. I want to do one lesson plan but have different periods for that one…

Allow Google Calendar items below plans
I wish I could put my lesson plans above the Google Calendars. I love the integration with Google Calendars, but I would like the option to put the plans first, so I can avoid scrolling down.

Quick add lesson to bank
Have a bank button in the lesson box. That way if I do not want to do the lesson that week, I can quickly bank it instead of having copy.

Allow lesson standards to be applied to Units
I would like a way for each of the standards I add to an individual lesson plan to automatically be listed in the standards area of my unit plan as well

Copy - Select multiple lessons
When in the class section and you show all lessons for importing a lesson, it would be great to click on the previous lesson and it automatically select that date as the starting date and then either ctrl click or shift click for the end range.

Unit plans to include lessons, assignments and assessments
When creating unit plans, I would love to be able to add my lessons, assignments and assessments, instead of having to go to a separate section. Maybe by offering a check box to indicate if this portion of the unit plan is a lesson, assignments or assessments.

Assignments for all class sections
It would streamline how quickly I can enter grades into the gradebook. I have multiple sections of the same class and I would love to be able to assign the same assignment and assessment to those sections in one shot rather than one by one.
