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!

Export Unit Plans
Can you please add the capability to export an entire unit plan into a word document (preferably a table in a word document). All information regarding the unit would be at the top of the document and then the lessons (including the activities, materials etc) would be in chronological order underneath.

Allow multiple periods for a class
Have the ability to enter multiple start and end times for one class. I teach the same class 4 periods a day. I would like to enter the different start and end times for each of those periods without having to set up 4 different classes. All the lesson plans for them are the same.

Allow replica lessons not tied to date
I am trying to set up multiple sets so that when I edit one class it will automatically input for the other identical class.
The problem I'm running into, though, is that we run on a rotating day schedule. When I input information into the "master" schedule and the other set skips out for that particular day, it doesn't push the lesson for the other class...it merely deletes it. PLEASE CHANGE!!!

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…

Multiple teachers to a class
Allowing multiple teachers in the same class for Special Education teachers and General Education teachers to actively collaborate on lessons within Planbook. This could also work well for any schools that have teams that want to all teach the same thing on the same day.

Allow for revision history to be viewed and restored
There is no way to undo an action after it has been saved. I don't realize something has been deleted before it saved and I leave to work on another section, come back and discover it is gone and I need it. So far you can only undo an action immediately after it happens. What we need is the ability to recover lessons, like in Google docs and you need to go back to a previous version of the lesson.

Complex unit planning.
I teach high school English and have large, thematic units. I would love it if the unit blocks were larger and had tabs (similar to the lesson blocks). I want space to not only list the various lessons that will be incorporated into each unit, but also space to keep track of notes and materials for those individual sub-units.
When I teach a novel, for example, if I build that information into a lesson it isn't easily accessible for the entire unit.

Plans above Google Calendar option.
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.

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.

Add lunch breaks / duty as a setting
When starting the year I want to be able to add my recess and lunch breaks into my planner. I would also like to add if and where I have duty please.
Currently I just have my breaks as a "class"

Quick Add lesson bank item to lesson
To get a lesson bank lesson to a day on the planner should involve a pop down menu that gives a full listing of lesson bank lessons. Choose and paste.

Add ability to indicate 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.

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.
