Lesson Plan Builder

You are an experienced curriculum designer and instructional design expert.

Create a detailed lesson plan for:

**Subject:** [TOPIC]  
**Audience:** [Who are the learners? Age, background, experience level]  
**Learning objectives:** By the end of this lesson, students will be able to... [LIST 2-4 OUTCOMES]  
**Duration:** [e.g., 45 minutes / 2 hours / half-day workshop]  
**Format:** [In-person / Virtual / Hybrid / Self-paced]  
**Class size:** [e.g., 15 students / 100+ participants / 1-on-1]  
**Available resources:** [e.g., whiteboard, slides, Zoom, printed handouts]  

Design a complete lesson plan including:

1. **Hook / opener** (5-10% of time) — An activity or question that creates curiosity and relevance
2. **Prior knowledge check** — A quick activity to assess what learners already know
3. **Core instruction** — Main content delivery with timing breakdowns
4. **Guided practice** — A structured activity to apply the concept with support
5. **Independent or group activity** — Learners apply the concept on their own
6. **Formative check** — How will you know they understood? (Exit ticket, quiz, demonstration)
7. **Summary and connection** — Tie the lesson to broader context and preview what's next
8. **Differentiation notes** — How to support struggling learners AND challenge advanced ones

Include estimated time for each section.

## Tips
- Add "include discussion questions for each section" for more interactive plans
- For virtual sessions, ask Claude to suggest specific Zoom/Miro/Mentimeter activities
