About this monthly lesson planner

A monthly lesson planner shows the big picture: which topics you’ll teach on which days, when assessments fall, and the month’s school events. A side panel lists units in progress, learning goals and resources to prepare.

Print the months of a term and keep them at the front of your planner.

What’s on the page

  • A full month calendar with real dates.
  • Units this month: lined space to write in.
  • Learning goals: lined space to write in.
  • Resources to prepare: a tick list.
  • Events: lined space to write in.

Tips

  • Mark holidays and events first, then fit topics around them.
  • Schedule assessments before reports are due.
  • Note resources to order a month in advance.

Made to fit, then printed

Everything on this monthly lesson planner can be changed before you print: the title, the dates, the colour, the paper size and orientation. The page is drawn on your device and nothing is uploaded. Find more printables.

Frequently asked questions

Can I print a whole academic year?

Yes. Choose the first month of term and print 10–12 months.

Will it print well in black and white?

Yes. The layout uses light fills and clear lines that print cleanly in grey. Choose the “Grey” colour to save colour ink entirely.

What paper size should I print on?

Choose A4 or US Letter before downloading, and print at 100% or “Actual size”. Portrait and landscape layouts are both available.

Can I fill in the monthly lesson planner on my phone or tablet?

Yes. Switch on “Fillable PDF” before downloading and the PDF gets typing boxes and tick boxes you can use in most PDF apps. Or print it and use a pen.

Can I print several months at once?

Yes. Pick the start date and how many months you need; each month gets its own page with the right dates, all in one PDF.
