Units and Learning Guides are larger planning documents as opposed to the lesson plan. Lesson plans are day-to-day guides that spell out classroom routine and the details of what will be happening during a class period or block.
Units usually organize several lesson plans into a more thematic course of study. The unit is ended by a larger assessment, like a test or project. The goal of the unit is to tie together several days or maybe weeks of instruction in order for students to master a certain set of tasks from the PAL or possibly even a duty area. The concept is to give your weeks of instruction a running theme so there is coherence and continuity to the student's learning of skills and concepts.

Learning Guides are similar to units as they are larger planning documents. Learning guides may span a few days or possibly a week or two. The learning guide is designed for both the teacher and student to see and access. Learning guides have all activities and materials included and are designed to allow students to work at their own pace. The instructor will choose key points to interact with the students in the learning guide, such as lectures, discussions, reflection, evaluation, and demonstration. But, those interactions should depend on student progress and not a teacher-determined time. Learning guides should also culminate to a larger project or test as evidence of student mastery.
