ProFile Planner is an online lesson planning tool for teachers and administrators, designed to combine the functionality of a planner with the convenience of the web to help users create lesson plans which support their curriculum, generate child interest, encourage child development and save planning time.
The software is delivered with more than 6,500 preloaded activities and 21 software applications for the SMART™ Table, iOS and Android devices. Activities come from the Learn Everyday and Giant Encyclopedia series of activity books published by Gryphon House.
Users log in to ProFile Planner through an internet connection. Multiple users per classroom can create and edit lesson plans to match your curriculum language, routines and daily schedule. Users can create a daily routine template and simply search by keyword for 6,500 pre-loaded activities to drag and drop onto their plans. Any plan can be modified for special events (e.g. field trips) without affecting the daily template.
