Prompt
Create a lesson plan with the following details:

Subject: [SUBJECT]
Topic: [TOPIC]
Audience: [AUDIENCE] (e.g., 8th graders / adult learners / college freshmen)
Duration: [DURATION] (e.g., 45 min / 90 min / 3-day unit)
Learning objectives: [LEARNING_OBJECTIVES] (list your own, or write "suggest 3 objectives using Bloom's taxonomy verbs")

Structure the plan with these sections:
1. Learning Objectives (use Bloom's taxonomy action verbs: analyze, evaluate, create, etc.)
2. Warm-Up Activity (5–10 min) — activates prior knowledge or hooks interest
3. Main Instruction Outline — key teaching points in sequence
4. Practice Activity — students apply the concept with guidance
5. Check for Understanding — formative assessment method
6. Homework / Extension — optional deeper engagement

How to Use

This prompt produces a ready-to-use lesson plan scaffold that a teacher can adapt rather than build from scratch. It works for K–12 classrooms, corporate training, university courses, and self-directed learning units. If you are unsure about learning objectives, let the AI suggest them — just write "suggest 3 objectives using Bloom's taxonomy verbs" in the [LEARNING_OBJECTIVES] field and review them before using.

Variables

VariableDescription
[SUBJECT]Broad discipline (e.g., "Biology", "World History", "JavaScript Programming")
[TOPIC]Specific lesson focus within that subject (e.g., "mitosis", "The French Revolution", "async/await")
[AUDIENCE]Learner profile — grade level, age group, or role (affects vocabulary, examples, and scaffolding)
[DURATION]Total time available — strongly affects how much content fits and how long each section should be
[LEARNING_OBJECTIVES]2–3 measurable outcomes learners should achieve, or ask the AI to suggest them

Tips

  • For multi-day units, change [DURATION] to something like "3-day unit, 50 minutes per day" and ask the AI to distribute content across days — it will naturally group concepts into a logical sequence.
  • After generating, ask a follow-up: "Suggest a differentiation strategy for advanced learners and one for struggling learners in this plan" to make the lesson more inclusive without starting over.
