Elan Publishing CompanyDeluxe Undated Teacher Planner: 8.5x11 Includes 7 Periods, Page Tabs, Bookmark, Planning Stickers, Pocket Folder Daily Weekly Monthly Planner Yearly Agenda (Spring Floral)

This is my favorite teacher planner! I am one who still loves to write out my plans every week. This planner has some many different sections to use, but I use the weekly planning section the most. It is very durable, it's a great size and value for the money. It also includes a monthly and yearly calendar, stickers, folders in the back for important papers, a class list, and so much more. I have used this same planner for about 5 years and I take it home everyday and shove tons of papers in it. It has never broken down or torn apart. Such a great teacher planner!

I undertook the task of planning to homeschool will the zeal of one who regularly over thinks and over researches decisions. I reviewed the specs, read the reviews, and then added to cart. Let me tell you! This planner FAR exceeds my expectations. Let's start with the cover. It is thick like a cardstock print has been laminated thrice over. This cover definitely does not feel like something that will mangle easily. Now the inner pages. Again - impressed. I was expecting paper maybe a little thicker than regular printer paper but it is not. The sheet paper inside is significant enough that I wouldn't hesitate to use highlighters and markers. And gel pens. Can't forget our gel pens. Seriously, the planning pages are clearly laid out, multiple pages for each section, and every section is clearly color coded for quick reference. The sections have some definition to them but also seem to be labeled somewhat neutral enough that you can have the flexibility to modify the use of the section for a different purpose. Truly, I was afraid to start homeschooling. Now? A little bit less because I have a great quality organizer for the lessons. Buy it. You won't regret it. I would buy this planner again in a heartbeat.

I bought this for next school year, and I just set it up yesterday. So far, I like it. It has a lot of "front matter" that isn't too useful for me as a special area teacher, but would be great for a classroom teacher.Features:-a full page spread useful for a sub-a full page spread for student list (with parent contact section and notes section)-2 full page spread communication log-full page spread with 12 lined squares for overview planning-full page spread with daily schedule for 4 semesters/quarters (each day has 8 periods)-full page spread with seating charts for 8 classes-2 full page spread with graph paper for planning-14 grade book pages with space for 35 students-monthly planning pages with a page of dot grids, a lined page, and a undated calendar (for all 12 months)-52 pages for weekly planning M-F with 7 periods-12 full page spreads with line pages for notes (color coded to match the blank monthly planning pages earlier in the planner)-24 blank tabs (can be used to mark months on monthly planning pages, months in weekly planning pages, or month on blank note pages)-2 pages of planning/reminder stickers-24 groups of stickers: colored tab with 6 lines to write, 3 flag stickers, 3 dot stickers)-enough colored tab stickers to color code each period/subject in the weekly planner pages-a heavy plastic sleeve protector (holding sticker sheets)--will hold 8 1/2 X 11 sheet-2 folder pockets (will hold 8 1/2 X 11 sheet)

PROS: Good paper, slightly thinner than card stock. Front & back covers are thicker paper & laminated thus appear to be sturdy. Several useful sections (see photos for examples). Monthly & weekly calendar are undated so you can begin dates/label as you’d like. Numerous tabs provided to attach as necessary for organization. There’s a clear sleeve and a page with a pocket on either side, at the back of the planner. Front pages with safety/ emergency/ health info could be filled out and copied for a sub folder.CONS: Coming from a secondary teaching environment the M-F schedule page is not useful. In addition, there are only 2 pages allotted to record student info (I have 10 classes a year, so nowhere near enough.) 4 pages are given for noting contact home, probably not enough if you have multiple classes. The two pages labeled for a seating chart would not work well if you have seating other than desks - although they are followed by two pages of Cartesian grid paper that could be used instead. It’s heavy -but yes, that’s a trade off for having sturdy pages.Overall, I can definitely make it work & recommend it for those who like all planning & student info in one place.

I normally use outlook or my schools program to plan my lessons. It keeps me organized and following my curriculum map. I changed to a virtual setting and with all the different grade levels and kids this just wasn’t going to work. I looked and looked for what I needed and didn’t really want to spend this amount for a planner. Save yourself the hassle and just get this planner. It has everything you need. You fill in the dates/months so you can make sure it is planned around your schools holidays. Notes section is AMAZING for keeping log ins and passwords.Just get this planner. It has every section you can think of. The pages are sturdy and don’t bleed through. Too notch product.

I have been trying to find the perfect teacher planner for the past few years. I came across this one and decided to give it a try. It's perfect! It has everything I need, all in one planner. I am able to set up my monthly planner and my lesson plans the way I want to.

Very good. Good quality and lots of spaces to write
