Brightwheel’s Learning tools help you manage classroom planning and documentation with ease. You can create lesson plans, assign them to rooms, and log observations to track student growth within a system designed to fit your program.
How to navigate the Learning page
When you navigate to Learning on the web, you’ll see several tabs.
Here’s what each one does:
Overview (Room Lesson Plans)
The Overview tab shows lesson plans that have been assigned to a specific room.
Each assigned plan becomes its own unique copy, so rooms can make updates without affecting the original template.
Library
The Library is where all your reusable content lives.
Inside, you’ll find your Lesson plans templates and Learning activities. You can find Lesson plans templates created yourself or any pre-made curriculum purchased through Experience Curriculum.
