Step by step
The workflow to follow inside Planlark.
These steps are ordered to match how the planner works in practice, so later actions build on the context created in earlier ones.
2
Publish and maintain student share pages
Use the class share controls to publish a student-facing page with recap notes and resource links. Update it as lessons progress so students always have the current reference view.
3
Track execution work in Tasks
Capture prep work, reminders, and deadlines in Tasks. Use status and due dates to keep today’s operational workload visible during active teaching weeks.
4
Use Projects for larger planning tracks
Create projects for multi-step work such as report cards, curriculum mapping, assessments, or parent communication. Projects help group related tasks and keep progress measurable.
5
Review Drive resource suggestions before applying
Open the resource review queue to accept or reject AI-matched resources. Approving intentionally keeps unit and lesson resources high quality instead of auto-linking everything.

FAQ
Questions teachers usually ask here.
When should I use Tasks versus Projects?
Use Tasks for immediate action items and due dates. Use Projects when the work has multiple phases or spans several days and needs grouped progress tracking.
Should every suggested Drive resource be auto-applied?
No. Review suggestions first. Accepting only the right resources keeps lesson and unit materials relevant and avoids noisy attachments.
