Chalk has updated my method of lesson and unit planning, making my work more accessible and flexible.

Pros

Chalk makes it easy for me to plan my units and daily lessons, with the ability to shift them forward and backward, schedule days off, and save and reuse units between class years. I find it very helpful that I can open my plans on any smart device. Its moved me away from using paper plans or multiple Word documents to track my plans.

Cons

A feature that would be helpful would be the ability bulk export individual plans as group or individual PDFs, aside from that, the potential of this software is so great that as a teacher, I recommend it to my peers and as a department chair, require my teachers to use it for their plans.

I live by this program and it really makes lesson planning a breeze. I don’t know what I’d do without it!

Pros

Love how easy it is to setup your schedule and develop lessons anywhere from mobile device, tablet, or computer and pickup from another device.

Cons

It had a few bugs in the Planbook program that can be frustrating. Formatting text isn’t amazing but it works.

I benefit from the trial version of lesson planning as it provides quick and simple means to locating appropriate standards. Other than this feature I find the rest of what is offered of no value to me. If I were to use it diligently I would be jumping to multiple websites to get what I need accomplished and I honestly have no interest in doing so. II get the feeling that Chalk is attempting to reinvent the wheel.

Pros

What I like is that if I choose to create a lesson plan I can find the appropriate learning standards with a pop-up list that allows me to select which I feel apply.

Cons

Honestly, this is just another tool that is out there...and there are many. I am using the trial version at the moment to explore it's functions but I find most of what is offered is already handled by my school's LMS and, hence, is superfluous. In addition, Google products do so much already that this is really not necessary unless your school decides to go fully onboard with it. It's curriculum and instruction appears to be geared towards online instruction. We do not do this. I am adverse to teaching math in this manner.d. When I clicked on this I was directed to Power Schools. My school will never go in this direction.

Chalk is user friendly and colorful so an easily bored teacher can spice up lesson planning. The bonus features such as grade tracking and attendance are helpful as well.

Pros

Chalk has some awesome features for teachers and administrators. The ability to do things like place videos and links in lesson plans is wonderful. Also, being able to share lesson plans with teams is so beneficial.

Cons

I wish that it was easier to save all lesson plans at the end of the school year in one quick move. Being able to download and upload them year to year would be great.

Great potential

Reviewed on 05/10/2021

Pros

I found this was a great tool for keeping track of marks as long as I stayed on top of inputting. It was easy to send rubrics or gradebook pages to students or parents.

Cons

When you’re using D2L Brightspace or Google classroom, adding another tool like chalk just seems to be a waste of time. I am not going to input everything twice when it’s already in my Google
Gradebook.
