Using the Tool
Select a Program (if applicable) from the dropdown menu.
If a program was not selected, manually select the Subject for your lesson.
If a program was not selected, manually select the Grade.
Next, set the Days in Lesson.
Then set the Class Length.
Define the allotted time for Independent Practice per Day: how much time per day will be allocated for independent student work.
Enter a brief description of what the lesson will focus on in Topic or Learning Objective.
In Additional Information (Optional), type or upload details such as standards, context, or specific instructional goals.
Click Generate to create your full lesson plan.
💡Tip! The more context you provide—like previous classwork or target standards—the more tailored your plan will be. You can always revise the plan later, but giving specifics upfront leads to stronger starting points.
