Where to find Lesson Plans


In Famly, Lesson plans is all about helping you to craft fun activities, explore themes, attange play areas, and capture everything exciting that's happening at your center! To find your Lesson plans:

  • Click on Learning in your sidebar

  • Click on Lesson plans

  • If you're totally new to lesson planning, click on Get started to make your first plan


What can I do with Lesson Plans?

With the help of Lesson plans, you can:

  • Create a different schedule for each classroom

  • Copy schedules to other weeks and classrooms, so you don't have to start over every time

  • Check the permissions of the children in that classroom so that you can plan activities accordingly

  • Choose which rows you make visible to parents and which ones are only visible to teachers

  • Clicking on the ... dropdown will open up even more options for you


How do I create a Lesson Plan?

Once you're in the Lesson plans section, get started by selecting the room you'd like to organize the week for. From here, you can:

  • Add sections to the week based on how you plan for your center, for example:

    • the time of day

    • the type of activity

    • the area of learning

    • where the activity or provision takes place

  • When adding a section, you can choose if the section should be:

    • visible to parents or

    • only be visible to staff

  • Click on the building brick icon to add activities from the Activity Library

  • It is also possible to add notes

Once you're done, simply click on Publish week. Once a week's plan is published, parents whose children are in the corresponding classroom can view it to see what their child is up to that day, unless of course certain sections are marked as invisible to parents.
