How to add Lesson Tags

This article will provide teachers with the information needed to customize tags for their lessons.

Lesson Tags provide teachers with a simple yet powerful tool to group and highlight lessons. You can define as many tags as needed, and can apply multiple tags to each lesson. Common use cases for tags include:

• Lesson Status - Tags to show the status of a lesson, such as: draft, ready, taught, reviewed, etc.
• Lesson Supports - Tags to remind you of supports required for a lesson, such as: laptops, smart board, math cart, etc.

• Lesson Helpers - Tags to track helpers that will be in your classroom, such as: aide, parent, counselor, etc.
• Lesson Location - Tags to provide location for a lesson, such as: Room 101, online, playground, etc.

Once tags are added, you can use the Filter Plans option to easily view lessons with specific tags. You can also use the Student View option to control what lessons can be viewed by students (e.g. only allow students to view lessons tagged as "ready").
