Welcome
Teachers! Use this section to search for lesson plans created by other DVR professionals for use in your own curriculum. Search by Department and Keyword to selectively filter, or choose All to see a full list of current shared lessons. (see search fields to the left)
Each of our districts has their own guidelines for the content and format of a lesson plan. However, it would be helpful for teachers sharing lesson plans to include related learning standards, specific links (if needed in the lesson), and notations on what students will be able to know and do as a result of the lesson.
When you post a new lesson, please include a couple sentences describing your lesson, and upload a pdf with the details, rather than pasting the entire lesson into your post description (some have included both pdf and WORD versions in case colleagues want to edit the lesson). Please include your school email in case teachers want to contact you about your lesson.
Feel free to create as many keywords as needed to help others find your lesson topic.
Thanks for sharing!!
