A teacher planner earns its keep when it can move from a Monday morning schedule to a June curriculum review without turning into three separate notebooks. This pack gives you that range: 29 pages covering daily and weekly planning, lesson plans, substitute coverage, attendance, grades, parent contact, and the smaller record-keeping tasks that pile up around a classroom.
Every page in the set comes in two colour options, so you pick whichever suits your binder and open the matching PDF.
Downloading the Teacher Planner Printables
Click the colour version you want under each preview below and the PDF opens straight in your browser, ready to save to your device or send to a printer. Every page is free for personal and classroom use, and you can print as many copies as the school year needs.
For pages you’ll fill in every week, such as the weekly planner or the attendance sheet, print at 100% scale so the boxes stay the size they were drawn at rather than shrinking to fit a page setting. If you carry a smaller planner or want an insert-sized copy, print at 90% instead and it’ll fit inside a slimmer binder without cropping any of the boxes. Pages you plan to reuse all term, like the work schedule or the attendance sheet, are worth laminating once and marking up with a dry-erase marker instead of printing a fresh copy every week.
Daily and weekly pages for the pace of a school week
Some days need a plan measured in periods, not hours. The daily teacher planner breaks the day into class periods with room for the lesson or activity attached to each one, plus a short list of top priorities so a packed schedule doesn’t bury the two or three things that actually need to happen. The teacher daily to-do sits next to it as a plainer option: checkboxes for the day’s tasks, a notes strip, and a short section for prepping tomorrow’s classes before you leave the room. If a bound daily format interests you outside the classroom too, the Daily Planner Templates pack covers similar layouts for personal use.
Zoom out to the week and the weekly planner gives each weekday its own column against a shared time column, useful for anyone teaching the same slot across multiple classes. The teacher plan template does something slightly different: it keeps the week’s structure but adds a top priority, lessons and reminders for each day, which suits a homeroom teacher juggling more than one subject.
The weekly lesson overview and weekly to-do list round out this group. The lesson overview organises lesson focus, activities, materials and homework by day, while the weekly to-do list splits tasks into a must-do column and a should-do column with space for notes, a distinction worth keeping if the should-dos tend to crowd out the must-dos by Friday.
Monthly and year-long planning for curriculum pacing
The monthly teacher planner steps back from daily detail to a week-by-week grid across a single month, with space for a focus per week and a line for key dates, plus a goals section at the bottom for whatever you’re trying to accomplish before the month ends.
Two year at a glance layouts go further, laying out all twelve months with room for units, topics, key dates and reminders in each one. Having both versions in the pack means you can pick whichever grid spacing matches how much detail you write per month, then keep that same page pinned above your desk for the rest of the year.
Work schedule pages handle a narrower job: a Monday to Friday grid for class periods, duties and meetings across a term. Print it once at the start of a term and it covers the recurring parts of your week that don’t change from month to month.
Lesson plans built around objectives, activities and assessment
The first lesson plan template keeps things direct: date, subject, grade and class up top, then objectives, activities, assessment and notes below, each with its own lined section. It suits a quick daily lesson that doesn’t need much background before you get into what’s being taught.
The second lesson plan template adds more scaffolding: subject, unit and teacher fields, a class background section, prior knowledge, lesson focus, an outline, resources and assessment. It works better for a lesson that builds on previous units or needs a written record of what students already know before you start.
Substitute plans and notes for the days you’re out
A substitute plan is only useful if a stranger can pick it up cold and run the room. The substitute teacher plan covers that: your name, the date, grade and room number at the top, then a daily schedule grid for time, subject, instructions and materials, plus a section for classroom rules so expectations don’t need explaining twice.
The substitute notes page works the other direction. It gives the substitute a table for the day’s schedule and space to note how the day actually went, information worth having on your desk the morning you’re back rather than pieced together from memory.
Attendance, grades and assessment records for one class
The attendance sheet numbers a full month across the top and a name column down the side, so a single page tracks a class from the 1st to the 31st without needing a fresh sheet every week. The attendance record does the same job with fewer columns per row, better suited to a class list you fill in by hand each morning rather than a grid marked multiple times a day.
Two grade tracker layouts give you a place to record scores by student across a term, one with an overall column and one with alternating row shading for longer rosters. Pair either with the assessment tracker, which logs assessment names, dates, class averages and retake notes so a dip in one test shows up before report cards do. If grading already carries most of your term’s paperwork, the Teacher Gradebooks pack and the Assessment Tracker post both go deeper into that side of record-keeping.
The curriculum checklist closes the loop between the two. It lists standards or skills down the side with columns for introduced, practiced, assessed and mastered, useful for confirming a skill on the assessment tracker was actually taught before it was tested.
Parent communication and behaviour documentation
The parent contact log records the date, student name, guardian details, reason for contact and any follow-up action, one row per conversation. Kept up over a term, it becomes a written record of who you’ve spoken to and about what, which matters the first time a parent asks whether a concern was ever raised before.
Meeting notes handle a different kind of conversation: date, time, topic and attendees at the top, then agenda points, action items and follow-up below. It works for parent-teacher conferences as well as staff meetings, anywhere a list of who agreed to do what is worth keeping.
The behavior log takes the same documentation habit into daily classroom management: date, student, the incident, action taken and whether a parent was notified, all in one row. Consistent entries make a pattern easier to spot across weeks rather than reacting to each incident as though it’s the first.
Homework tracking and student birthdays
The homework tracker lists assignments by class or subject with a date assigned, a due date and a column to mark whether the work came in. Printed weekly, it gives a quick answer to which students still owe work without flipping back through a grade book.
Student birthdays takes care of a smaller but recurring task: class, school year, month, student name, birthday and a line for celebration notes. Filled in at the start of the year, it means nobody’s birthday gets missed between September and June.
Field trips and classroom supplies
The field trip planner covers the logistics a trip needs before the lesson content: student names, dates, arrival and departure times, the location and the main teaching points you want covered while you’re there. For a longer or more detailed itinerary, the dedicated Field Trip Planner pack has more layouts built around the same trip.
Classroom supplies works as a running inventory: item, whether you have it, whether you need it, where to buy it and the cost. It’s worth filling in before a new term starts rather than midway through, since that’s the difference between one supply run and three.
Professional development records and weekly reflection
The professional development log records the date, the course or training name, the provider, hours completed and credits earned. Districts that require a set number of professional development hours each year make this page worth keeping current rather than reconstructing at renewal time.
Weekly reflection closes the pack on a smaller, more personal note: what went well, challenges that week, ideas and adjustments, and a focus for next week. Five minutes on a Friday with this page filled in often does more for how Monday starts than another hour of lesson planning would.
