Lesson plans

Who this is for: teachers · Where: Lesson Plans in the sidebar, or from a lesson on your calendar.

What this page is for

A full lesson plan: objectives, a minute-by-minute timeline, differentiation, materials and assessment — generated from your curriculum and then edited by you.

Each plan card shows its subject, grade and class, when it was generated, and a status badge. Open goes to the plan, PDF exports it, and the bin deletes it.

Curriculum coverage

Above the list sits a Curriculum coverage card: how many of your curricula you have started, and a progress bar for each one — the share of its lessons that now have a plan (3/59 lessons), or no plans yet.

This is the honest answer to "how much of the year have I actually prepared". Curricula you have not touched are listed too, so a subject you have been avoiding cannot quietly disappear from the view.

Coverage counts subtopics, not plans

A plan records which subtopics it covers, and that is what moves the bar. One plan spanning three subtopics moves it three lessons' worth; three plans on the same subtopic move it once.

Finding a plan

Search by topic, subtopic or class, and narrow with the grade, subject and curriculum filters. The list is paginated underneath.

The studio

1. Source

The class and the curriculum content. The picker goes section → topic → subtopic, and the deepest thing you pick is what the plan is written for.

2. Framework and context

The pedagogical framework, plus the practical facts that change a lesson: room equipment, class size, level, prior knowledge, which lesson number this is, and how interactive you want it.

Here you also choose the quality tier.

The tier is a cost choice, not a quality gamble

Each tier shows the minimum tokens for the outline and the full plan, and what is left of your allowance, before you generate. A cheaper tier writes a shorter, more conventional plan; a higher one reasons harder about sequencing and differentiation.

3. Outline

A skeleton to approve or adjust before the expensive step. Cheap to regenerate.

4. Build

The full plan. You can regenerate at a different tier without starting over.

What a plan contains

  • Objectives tied to curriculum competences
  • A step timeline with minute ranges — what you say, what pupils do, the questions to ask with their Bloom level, the check for understanding, and the interaction pattern
  • Differentiation as three tracks: support, core, extension
  • Materials, board cues and engagement notes
  • National works and references for the subject, where they exist

Everything is editable. Text areas grow as you type rather than scrolling internally.

The exit ticket

A finished plan also carries an exit ticket — 3–5 quick formative questions written from that plan, sitting in its own card above the objectives. It is created with the plan; you do not ask for it separately.

The card shows how many questions it holds and whether it has been assigned yet. Preview as pupil shows exactly what the class will see, and Regenerate rewrites the questions.

An exit ticket is not assigned until you assign it

It starts as Not assigned and stays that way. Generating a plan does not put anything in front of pupils — nothing is visible to a class until you assign it yourself.

What you can make from a plan

ActionWhat you get
Export PDFA localised, printable plan
Create homeworkA manual-format task, AI-prefilled and editable, with no AI marking
Create presentationA deck built from this plan's curriculum content

Both spend tokens, because both generate real content.

Regenerating a plan

Pick a different tier next to Regenerate this plan and run it again — you do not go back through the wizard.

Regenerating replaces the plan

Your edits to the text are overwritten. Export the PDF first if you want to keep a version.

Rules and limits

  • Generation spends tokens; the estimate is always shown first.
  • Plans are yours — colleagues do not see them unless you share.
  • The plan records which subtopics it covers, which is what feeds curriculum coverage.
  • Regenerating replaces the content, so export or copy anything you want to keep.

Troubleshooting

"The plan is about the wrong subject." This was a real bug — every subject once resolved to the Romanian literature canon — and it is fixed. Plans generated before the fix keep the wrong grounding; regenerate them.

"Generation failed." Usually the budget. The tier picker shows the minimum needed against what is left.

"The plan is too shallow." Generate at a higher tier, or fill in the context step — equipment, level and prior knowledge change the output.

"Steps have no timings." Older plans predate the timeline. Regenerate to get it.
