Lesson Plan Templates & Worksheets

Lesson planning can be fun, but it can also be a considerable time commitment, especially if you’re new to teaching or are shifting between grade levels. After spending a whole lot of years in the classroom, there’s one thing I know for sure… an effective lesson plan is essential for any teacher. With this in mind, I have created editable and printable Primary/Elementary School Lesson Plan Templates to save you time and give your students a clear idea of what the learning content will be.

Planning a full day of lessons, especially if you're preparing for a substitute teacher, can be time-consuming. With ready-to-go templates and differentiated pages for K-2 students, you’ll have everything you need to quickly build 5-6 engaging lessons for any day of the week.

These lesson plans are suitable for students in elementary or primary school, with templates like our Bugs and Minibeasts Unit, which features differentiated pages for students in K-2. Discover creative lessons and templates covering a variety of non-fiction units that young students love. You can find lessons all the way from learning about Community Helpers, Procedure Writing, and Writing Goals to lessons about frogs, butterflies, or the water cycle.

Yes! These templates are perfect for setting up a day of engaging activities that any substitute can follow with ease. They’re clear, consistent, and fun, making transitions smooth for both the teacher and the students.
