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
Scan the class outline for today
Review each period, class, and linked lesson title. If a period looks wrong, open the day planner to adjust lesson details before students arrive.
3
Review events for scheduling conflicts
Check the events list for meetings, assemblies, supervision blocks, or reminders that affect pacing. This helps avoid lesson assumptions that no longer fit today’s reality.
4
Check due-today tasks
Use the to-do snapshot to identify urgent prep work due today. Open the full task list when you need to reorder priorities, update status, or capture additional action items.
5
Jump into execution
Use “Open Day Planner” when you need lesson-level edits, or go to Tasks when admin and prep work come first. The goal is to move from overview to action with one click.
