I've just received some UK lesson plans that I would like to write up.

Does a taxonomy of lesson plans exist on Curriki or elsewhere?

PS - One barrier I see to getting more lesson plans is that a)
teachers often don't have time to write up lesson plans particular to
Sugar; and b) I (and perhaps other OLPC/Sugar contributers) don't
think I know what teachers mean by "Lesson Plan".  I presume "Lesson
Plan" is more than just "list of things I'm going to have the class
_do_", but a) if it's not, let's say that; and b) anyway, let's build
a corpus of "lesson plan templates" so that interested people can
write a lesson plan for teachers [in their target deployment/region's
template format], rather than forcing the teacher to do it.

For example, a developer who wants their activity to be
used/downloaded could write some lesson plans and use it to drum up
interest.

Perhaps even having lesson plans could become a requirement for
Fructose applications (or a distro's "favorited-by-default"
applications).
