Yes. EasyLessonPlan is temporarily free with a registered account - no card details are asked for and nothing is charged, and every tool is included. We're preparing a Free plan and a Teacher Pro plan priced in planning credits, plus school and district licences; any paid plan will always be optional, needing a checkout you explicitly agree to, and we'll email everyone at least 30 days before anything changes.

Can I edit what it writes?

Every section is editable in the app before you save. The plan is a starting point you shape, not a finished document you have to accept, you know your class, the generator doesn't.

Can I get it into Word?

Yes. Any saved plan downloads as a .docx you can open in Word or Google Docs, or as a print-ready PDF.

Which learners does the differentiation cover?

Tick any combination of ADHD, dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, autism, learning difficulty, speech and language difficulty, hearing, visual or physical impairment, and gifted and talented. The plan then carries concrete strategies for each one you chose. If the lesson already exists, the AI Lesson Differentiator adapts it instead — including for EAL and multilingual learners — without moving the learning objective.

Which grades and languages does it handle?

Pre-K through Grade 12, in 7 output languages: English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Arabic, Hindi, and Mandarin.

Do I have to use the biblical integration?

No. It's a single checkbox on the form, off by default. Leave it off and you get an ordinary subject lesson; turn it on and the plan gains a Scripture connection, a faith-and-learning tie-in, and discussion points.

Who owns the plans I make?

You do. You keep ownership of the details you enter and the plans saved to your account, as set out in our Terms & Conditions.

Why teachers use it

Spend the evening on something else

Planning stretches into the hours that were supposed to be yours. EasyLessonPlan takes the structure off your plate, so the time you do spend is the time that reaches students.

A teacher's desk after hours: a thick stack of hand-marked papers under a lit desk lamp, a red pen resting on top, dusk in the window behind. — What the planning usually costs

An empty classroom at the end of the day: rows of wooden desks and chairs receding towards a green chalkboard, washed in warm late-afternoon light. — What it gives back

Three steps, start to finish

1
Describe the lesson
Subject, grade, topic, and length. Add objectives, standards, output language, and which learners need support if you want them.
2
Generate the plan
You get objectives, prior learning, materials, a timed teaching sequence, assessment with rubric and exit ticket, STEM activities, and differentiation.
3
Edit, save, export
Change any section inline, keep it in your dashboard, and download it as a Word document or PDF to take into class.

What every plan includes

What a finished plan looks like

Grade 6 science, 45 minutes, differentiated for ADHD, dyslexia, visual impairment, and gifted learners. Every section below - objectives, timeline, assessment, differentiation - comes from one form submission.

Why does the Moon change shape?

A 45-minute Grade 6 science lesson on the phases of the Moon. Students model the Sun–Earth–Moon system with a lamp and a foam ball, discover that the Moon's shape never changes - only the lit part we can see - and record a month of phases in order.

Essential Question

If the Moon is always a sphere, why does it look like a different shape each week?

Learning Objectives

Students will model the Sun–Earth–Moon system to explain why the Moon appears to change shape over a month.
Students will sequence the eight phases of the Moon in the correct order with at least 7 of 8 placed accurately.
Students will distinguish between waxing and waning phases using evidence from their model.

Connection to Prior Learning

Key Terms

orbit
sphere
reflect
phase

Key Concepts

The Moon orbits Earth roughly once a month
The Moon does not make its own light - it reflects sunlight

Key Ideas

Objects look different depending on where the light and the observer are
Patterns in the sky repeat on a predictable cycle

Standards & Alignment

NGSS MS-ESS1-1 - Develop and use a model of the Earth-sun-moon system to describe the cyclic patterns of lunar phases, eclipses of the sun and moon, and seasons.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.SL.6.1 - Engage effectively in a range of collaborative discussions (one-on-one, in groups, and teacher-led) with diverse partners on grade 6 topics, texts, and issues, building on others' ideas and expressing their own clearly.

Materials & Resources

One bright lamp with the shade removed (the Sun)
Foam balls on pencils - one per student (the Moon)
Moon phase recording sheet, one per student
Darkened classroom or covered windows

Lesson Timeline

0–5 min
Hook - the shrinking Moon
Show four photographs of the Moon taken a week apart. Ask: what changed, and what stayed the same? Collect answers without correcting any of them yet.
5–12 min
Surface prior ideas
Students draw what they think is happening in their notebooks. Circulate and look for the common misconception that Earth's shadow falls on the Moon - you will return to it at minute 30.
12–28 min
Hands-on model
Darken the room and switch on the lamp. Each student holds their foam ball at arm's length and slowly turns a full circle, watching the lit part of the ball change. Pause them at each quarter turn to name what they see.
28–36 min
Make the pattern explicit
Students sequence the eight phase cards, then label waxing and waning. Revisit the shadow misconception directly: ask what would need to be true for Earth's shadow to cause phases, and why we would then see it every month.
36–43 min
Record and explain
Students complete the recording sheet, writing one sentence explaining the pattern in their own words using the words orbit, reflect, and phase.
43–45 min
Exit ticket
Collect the exit ticket at the door as students leave.

Assessment

Observation during the modelling activity; can the student predict the next phase before turning?
Phase-card sequencing check (7 of 8 correct)
Written explanation using the three target vocabulary words

Exit ticket

Tonight the Moon is a waxing crescent. Draw what it will look like in about one week and write one sentence saying why.

Rubric

4 - Explains phases using the Moon's orbit and reflected sunlight, sequences all 8 phases, uses all three terms correctly. 3 - Correct explanation with minor sequencing or vocabulary slips. 2 - Describes the pattern but attributes it to a shadow or another cause. 1 - Describes the shapes without explaining the cause.

Differentiation

ADHD

Give the role of lamp monitor during the model so movement is purposeful, not disruptive
Break the recording sheet into two halves collected separately at minutes 36 and 43
Say the next instruction only after eye contact, and keep each to one step

Dyslexia

Supply phase cards with the picture and the word together; never the word alone
Accept a labelled diagram in place of the written sentence
Pre-teach orbit, reflect, and phase with the foam ball before the whole-class activity

Visual impairment

Provide a tactile Moon phase board with raised lit and unlit sections
Pair with a partner who narrates the changing light aloud during the model
Enlarge the recording sheet to A3 with high-contrast printing

Gifted and Talented

Ask why we do not get an eclipse every single month, then have them test it with the model
Challenge them to predict the phase on their next birthday using a lunar calendar

STEM Activities

Month-long Moon journal

Students sketch the Moon at the same time each evening for four weeks, then compare their sequence with the class model and explain any nights they missed.

Model the eclipse edge case

Using the same lamp and ball, students find the narrow alignment that produces an eclipse and measure how far off the line they can go before it disappears.

Already have the lesson? Adapt it.

The AI Lesson Differentiator takes a lesson you already have one of yours, one you paste in, or a PDF or Word file you upload and adapts the instructions, activities, materials and assessment for the learners in your class. The learning objective stays exactly where it was.

It names what it changes

Every adaptation quotes the activity, instruction or task it replaces, and says which need it is for and why.

You decide, change by change

Accept or reject each one, edit the wording, and apply the rest to a duplicate. Your original is never overwritten.

Accommodation or modification

Each change is labelled, so nothing that alters what is expected of a learner slips through unmarked.
