Most of my lesson plans are handwritten notes that would make no sense to anyone else trying to teach the lesson for me. They follow a child’s interest or are written at the table during the lesson as the structure of what the learner wants to learn becomes clear.
Most of the time that works well. Sometimes it catches me on the backfoot — usually when a child asks a question I know nothing about. That’s where this tool helps: you can follow their interests without needing any prior knowledge to start.
The Socratic method lets you follow an interest without needing teacher-level knowledge of the topic: the lesson is guided by you and led by the child.
The prompt builder generates a full lesson plan for any interest, any age — aligned to the curriculum or not. It’s a complete lesson before the kettle boils, with a parent primer sheet to get you up to speed first.
Curriculum cross-reference, Socratic question set, suggested follow-ups — all from a single prompt. This one started with a question about Versailles.
The same tool for a six-year-old asking about sandcastles. Opening questions, likely answers, suggested follow-ups — in the same single pass.
