Find another way in
Suggest a different opening question that connects this learning goal to something learners already know.
Adjust the support
Add an optional vocabulary box and a sentence starter. Keep the main reasoning task and final independent question.

Questions before you start
Do I need a finished lesson plan before starting?
No. Bring a clear learning goal and the class context you have. Ask for questions where information is missing.
Can I use the same topic across tasks?
Yes. Keep your objective and topic in the prompt when moving from a lesson starter to practice or a visual brief. Check that each task serves a useful purpose.
Are the activities ready to hand straight to pupils?
No. Review accuracy, challenge, accessibility and classroom suitability before use.
Where are the demonstration recordings?
Recorded demonstrations are on each task page. The worksheet page shows how to create a worksheet, adapt the support and export the result. The teaching visuals page shows an interactive visual example.
