Alternate Template Formats

The first file (below) is a skeleton form of the original, omitting the links and suggestions.

The second is a condensed form to plan a week at a time. Thanks to Deborah Nix for the inspiration on how to arrange it on one page! This version is based on the template she created for her own planning.

The third (also a weekly planning version) was developed to meet the expectations for PLT for ELs at Una Elementary and features a simplified approach with drop-down menus.

Planning is a very personal process. You are welcome to adapt any of these templates to meet your style, but please keep in mind that there are reasons for each and every component included and the order in which they are recommended. If you decide to change the order or add/delete components, think about how your changes will or will not impact the inclusion of WIDA, SIOP, Standards-based curriculum, and Second Language Acquisition.
