TEMPLATES BY SIX WEEKS
Currently, some teachers have issues seeing the Lesson Plan templates by Six Weeks in the Content Library Section Group in the OneNote Notebook. Therefore, I have also added these in the Collaboration Space Section Group. Please repeat the steps done at the training. This time you will be right-clicking on the 3rd Six Weeks Tab and selecting Move or Copy then place it under your name and click the Copy button. PLEASE DO NOT click move nor do anything to the templates since it is a shared resource. To make sure it copied to your account look under your name and check to see if the 3rd Six Weeks Tab is there. You will be doing this for every six weeks.
SHARED LESSON PLAN FOLDERS BY GRADE LEVEL
As to your question about how to share lesson plans with others, I have set up sections/tabs by Grade Level where you can copy lesson plans to and from within your grade level. Remember this is shared so please do not make changes if they don't belong to you unless you have the author's permission.
LESSON PLAN TEMPLATES
There is another section under Collaboration Space called Lesson Plan Templates that has other templates including P.E., Dyslexia, PreK, and more. You may copy these as needed.
