*The Original Complete Lesson Plans Collection

Never worry about ELA lesson plans again.

Leave on time! Always be ready! Have time to grade papers!

That's what I wrote a few years ago, but since I love writing lesson plans so much, I've written more since the Complete Lesson Plan Collection was created. That's why I've created the Bonus Lesson Plans to the Complete Lesson Plans Collection. These are mostly short stories I've taught since then along with a few novels.

The Bonus Lesson Plans to the Complete ELA Lesson Plans Collection contains complete unit plans for 20 short stories and 3 novels.
