Built for the teacher in the room

Teach the class you have.

When time to plan is limited, the details are what matter. For relief and casual teachers, out-of-field teachers, regional and remote schools, and home educators.

Fit the period

Choose 30, 45 or 60 minutes. The lesson blocks are planned to finish when the bell does.

Adjust delivery with care

Set up for the room you're in: written, digital or verbal, plus practical access adjustments. The learning intention and success criteria stay clear.

Know what to say or do next

Ready-to-run mode builds in practical routines such as turn and talk, worked examples and exit tickets. Keep the next instruction visible as students arrive.

For the students in front of you

Meet students where they are. Wherever you are.

Adjust written literacy and numeracy demand separately, turn on support for students learning English, set the engagement mix and add class-wide access needs. Every lesson keeps the year level you choose. The way in adapts to the class in front of you, and if a quick check shows they're not ready, the lesson gives you a short on-ramp. As always, check it suits your class before you teach it.

How it works

Three small steps. Ready to teach.

Set the scene, build the lesson, then teach it your way. No account or student information required. Questions? Read the FAQ.

1 · SET THE SCENE

Choose the essentials.

Set the subject, year level, topic and time. Add the details that will make the lesson more useful.

2 · BUILD THE LESSON

Generate a plan.

Use the free builder, the offline bank or a prompt for your school-approved AI.

3 · WALK IN READY

Teach, adapt, reflect.

Use the plan on a phone, print it or take an editable copy. An exit ticket leaves useful evidence for the next teacher.

Inside every lesson

Teach it explicitly first, then students practise and apply it. Here's the shape of a typical 45-minute lesson.

  1. Retrieve6 min · a do-now that checks readiness
  2. Teach12 min · explain and model a worked example
  3. Practise together10 min · guided, with a check
  4. Apply11 min · independent task
  5. Exit6 min · evidence for the next teacher
  • Same goal for every student. Support changes the scaffolding, not the year level.
  • Ready for any room. Offline, with or without tech, for a full class or a small group.
  • Fits the bell. 30, 45 or 60 minutes, with what to cut first if time runs short.

Built on the explicit-teaching approach used across Australian school systems. Our teaching approach

Our design principles

Privacy-first by design.

Lesson Plan It is a planning aid, not a student record. You stay in control of the lesson and apply your professional judgement.

  • No student names, records or work samples belong in Lesson Plan It.
  • In the free tool, your lesson content stays in your browser and is never sent to us.
  • You paste the prompt into the AI tool your school or department has already approved, so you stay inside the policy you already work under.
  • Lessons are anchored to Australian Curriculum v9, and each offline lesson shows the content description it targets (Beta). Anchored, not verified.

Help shape what comes next.

The free lesson builder stays free. Plan, now in development, adds the slides, worksheets, quizzes, rubrics and differentiated versions that match each lesson.

We're building Plan with a small group of founding teachers first. You'll get the free 2027 back-to-school lesson pack in January, the first invitations to try Plan when the preview opens, preview access at no cost (with plenty of notice before anything changes), and a say in what gets built first.

One email from Adrian when you join, preview details in Term 1 2027, and occasional updates. Unsubscribe at any time.

Teaching across Country

Built for classrooms wherever they are.

Lesson Plan It is intended to make practical preparation more reachable for teachers in regional, rural and remote communities as well as city classrooms, including when connectivity, devices and resourcing are not a given.

Equity and access are part of the product, not an afterthought. Quality teaching, resources and time to prepare should not depend on postcode.

Leading a regional or remote school? We're looking for a few schools to pilot and shape offline-ready resources with us. Email us or join the founding teachers as a school leader.

We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the lands on which we work, learn and teach across every state and territory, and pay respect to Elders past and present. Sovereignty was never ceded.

Adrian Lowe, founder of Lesson Plan It

Why this exists

I’m Adrian Lowe. In my time working in EdTech, it did not take long to hear the same problem. Teachers were handed unfamiliar classes, tight timeframes and tools that did not reflect the room they were walking into. Lesson Plan It is for the days you are expected to be ready for anything, and for students who deserve a lesson that meets them where they are.
