Getting Started: Here’s how to use the Unit Plan Generator


Step 1: Enter the Unit Topic

This is where you define the main theme or subject of your unit. Keep it specific and focused. For example:
  • “The Solar System” for a science unit.
  • “World War II” for a history class.
Tip: The more precise you are, the better the generator will tailor the unit to your needs.

Step 2: Learning Standards and Objectives (Optional)

Here, you can list the educational standards and learning objectives you want the unit to meet. If you have clear guidelines or curriculum requirements, enter them here to ensure the unit aligns with your goals. For example:
  • “Students will be able to identify the planets in the solar system.”
  • “Students will analyze the causes of World War II.”
Tip: Providing this information will result in a more customized plan, but it’s optional if you’re short on time.

Step 3: Assessment Methods (Optional)

Decide how you will measure student understanding. This is where you list quizzes, projects, essays, or any other method you plan to use. If you’re not sure yet, feel free to leave it blank—the tool will generate suggestions. For example:
  • “Weekly quizzes on planetary facts.”
  • “Final project: Presentations on World War II battles.”
Tip: Clear assessment methods help ensure the unit plan includes built-in evaluation points.

Step 4: Additional Criteria (Optional)

Have specific requests or additional criteria for the unit? This section allows you to add things like using technology, promoting group work, or focusing on particular learning strategies. For example:
  • “Incorporate video lessons and interactive simulations.”
  • “Include group activities for collaborative learning.”
Tip: Use this section to make the unit plan even more aligned with your teaching style or your classroom’s specific needs.

Step 5: Grade Level

Choose the grade level you’re teaching. The tool will use this information to suggest age-appropriate activities, resources, and assessments. For example:
  • “Grade 5” for elementary-level lessons.
  • “Grade 10” for high school classes.
Tip: Ensuring you select the correct grade level helps the tool customize the difficulty and depth of the content.

Step 6: Unit Duration

How long will your unit last? Enter the duration of the unit—whether it’s a number of weeks, days, or a specific range of lessons. This helps the tool break down the content into manageable sections. For example:
  • “4 weeks” for a month-long science unit.
  • “10 lessons” for a concise history course.
Tip: Be realistic about your timeframe so the tool can plan accordingly.

Step 7: Language

Select the language in which you’d like the unit plan to be generated. This ensures the entire unit, including resources and instructions, is provided in the language you’re teaching. Tip: Use this feature if you’re teaching in a bilingual or multilingual environment, or if you need the plan in a specific language.

Step 8: Generate Your Plan!

Once you’ve filled in the necessary fields, click the Generate button. The tool will produce a complete, tailored unit plan that includes:
  • A week-by-week lesson breakdown.
  • Clear learning objectives.
  • Engaging activities and assessments.
  • Suggestions for resources and differentiation strategies for diverse learners.
Tip: Review the generated plan to make small adjustments based on your teaching style or class dynamics.

Extra Tips for Success:

  • Provide as much detail as possible: The more detailed your input, the more personalized your unit plan will be.
  • Be flexible: Use the generated plan as a foundation and adjust it to suit your classroom needs.
  • Think about diverse learners: The tool includes differentiation strategies, but you can further customize them based on your students’ learning styles and abilities.
