Activities and Lesson Plans

Activities play an important role in the Embarc lesson planner. This article will outline the difference between the two features- and explain how they work together within the Embarc platform.

•  The purpose is to incorporate the details of what a teacher does, what students do , plus which learning targets, standards, and links to instructional content

• Teachers can select these in their lesson plans as the “meat” of instruction

...

Lesson plans combine your already created learning targets, activities, and attachments for a specific day and (potentially) group of students allowing for greater differentiation. While the Curriculum feature groups organizes your content by unit and topic, the lesson planner allows for a more finite application.

Once you have created activities that house individual student learning experiences and curricular content, you are ready to utilize the lesson planner in Embarc. The lesson plan feature allows educators to attach learning targets, activities, and attachments (see image below) to a specific date. This creates a classroom specific curriculum road map and is accessed through the Classroom portion of Embarc, and requires educators to first create a class, as well as activities for best use.
