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…

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".

Ability to color code units
I'm very visual (and sometimes I break my units up and come back to a few standards from a previous unit). It would be nice if we could color code the unit when it is listed at the top of the lesson, instead of them all showing up highlighted in blue. It would give a good visual as to how many days you have left allotted for that topic.

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.

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…

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!

Print Sub Notes with Plans
It would be nice to be able to print Substitute Notes along with a day's plans just as we can with regular notes. This way it can all be in one file rather than two.

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.

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.

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.

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

Add dark mode on Web and Apps
With dark modes becoming so popular on websites, on apps, and on operating systems as a whole, it seems like an oversight here! This should be implemented in all forms that Planbook exists.

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

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.

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.

Allow admin to mark lesson as reviewed
The only way to show that lesson plans have been checked now is to leave a comment. It would be nice to be able to provide a simple checkmark to show they have been read/approved without leaving a comment every week.

Lesson tab should allow immediate typing
Right now when I open a particular subject, I have to then click on the text field to start typing. It should default to immediately being able to type in that field.

Show notes for Google Calendar items
I appreciate the integration of the Google Calendar events! Is there a way that the notes with the Calendar events can be seen on Planbook? Or perhaps a way to add notes to Google Calendar items?
