How do I submit a lesson plan for review?

Learn how to submit a lesson plan so you can receive feedback from your coach!

Please note: this article is primarily for users with a teacher role at districts with the Lesson Plan Feedback Feature enabled. If you are interested in setting this up for your site, please reach out to your Customer Success Manager/Associate. 

On your profile, click Submit Feedback & Media or click Start > Submit Lesson Plan.

 

 

If your school or district has set up Lesson Plan Submission Cycles, you also have the option of clicking + Lesson Plans and Submit New Lesson Plan to submit a lesson plan for a particular Due Date. If you do not see this option, your school has not configured this feature.

On the pop-up, fill in the required fields in Basic Info and then use the File Selector to add your lesson plan file from your device (a .pdf, .doc, .docx, .jpg, or .png file), or from your Google Drive. If you submit from Google Drive, your lesson plan will always appear as it did the moment you submitted it and will not update in Grow if you make updates in Google. 

To add additional files for review (such as a slide deck for the lesson, student materials, homework, etc.), click the toggle by "I have multiple files to upload". You may then upload additional files to supplement your lesson plan.

Scroll down to select additional Metadata for organizational purposes. Below that, you have the option to add your Teaching Team if there are other teachers who need access to this lesson plan. Peers who are added here will have access to the feedback on the lesson plan as well.

At the bottom of the pop-up, use Share Options to send a notification to the person reviewing your lesson plan. Any coach or leader with access to your account can see your lesson plan; this step simply sends an email notification with a direct link and an optional Personal Note. Click Create to finalize your submission.

Your lesson plan has now been submitted for feedback. Once the review is in progress, you will not able able to edit or delete your lesson plan.
