Lesson Plans and Worksheets
It have found Lesson Planet to be an invaluable adjunct to the scope and sequence my district follows. I have used many of the worksheets as homework to reinforce what I have already gone over in class and to help students gain additional confidence on some of the more challenging lessons.
