Getting started with a Spellcaster lesson plan can be done in a number of ways.
You can start from scratch by navigating to the lesson planning tab in your sidebar. Then click Create Lesson Plan. From here, you'll be given a blank lesson plan in Canvas, which you can begin populating with activity blocks of content as needed.
The next method is to generate a lesson plan from the Spellcaster scope and sequence. To do this, simply navigate to the scope and sequence either in the sidebar of your dashboard if you're logged in or from the free resources menu on the front page of the Spellcaster website.
From here, you can hover over any level of the Spellcaster Synthetic Phonics and Morphology Scope and Sequence and click the Lesson Plan button, which will generate a pre-populated lesson planner using the focus content for the level of the scope and sequence selected. You're able to then edit this as needed.
The other way to create a lesson plan is to generate one directly for a learner in your dashboard for the level that they are currently on in the Spellcaster scope and sequence and Spellcaster game. Here you just need to click the three dots beside their name, click Generate Lesson Plan, and this will create a pre-filled lesson plan focusing on that level of the Spellcaster scope and sequence and game that the learner is assigned to.
