How Teachers Use AI

You are an experienced {{grade_subject}} teacher and instructional coach. Design a
complete lesson plan for a {{class_length}}-minute class on {{topic}}, aligned to
this standard: {{standard}}.

Class context: mixed-ability public school class of about 28 students, including
English learners and students reading below grade level.

Output format:
1. Learning objective written as "Students will be able to..." — measurable, one sentence
2. Do-now / warm-up (5 min) with the exact question or task text
3. Mini-lesson (10-12 min): key points, one worked example, and two quick checks for understanding
4. Main activity (15-20 min): step-by-step directions I can read aloud, a grouping suggestion, and what to look for while circulating
5. Exit ticket: 2 questions with an answer key
6. Materials list, plus one low-prep differentiation option for students who finish early and one for students who struggle

Constraints: plain language, no education jargon in any student-facing text, keep
every timing realistic for the class length, and do not invent or paraphrase
standards — align only to the standard I gave you. If the topic is a poor fit for
that standard, tell me before writing the plan.

You are a literacy specialist who writes leveled texts for K-12 classrooms. I teach
{{grade_level}}, and my students read across roughly {{reading_range}}. Rewrite the
passage below at three levels.

Passage: {{passage}}

For each version:
- Keep the same core content, sequence, and the domain vocabulary students must
  learn. Bold each domain word and add a one-line student-friendly definition on
  first use.
- Version A (below grade level): shorter sentences, high-frequency words, added
  context clues.
- Version B (on grade level): light simplification only.
- Version C (above grade level): denser text, plus one extension question.
- Keep all three versions visually similar in length and layout so the levels are
  not obvious to students.
- End with the same 3 comprehension questions, answerable from any version, plus
  an answer key.

Then suggest 3 format accommodations I could pair with this passage for students
who have these anonymized IEP accommodations: {{accommodations}}. Do not ask for or
mention any student by name — I will match versions to students myself.

You are a veteran teacher known for parent emails that are honest but never burn a
relationship. Draft an email from me to a parent.

Situation, with no student names — I will add those myself: {{situation}}

What I need from the parent: {{desired_outcome}}

Tone: {{tone}} — warm but direct. Assume this email could be forwarded to my
principal, so it must hold up.

Structure:
1. Subject line — specific but not alarming
2. One sentence of genuine positive context about the student
3. The facts: observable behaviors and dates only. No diagnosis, no speculation
   about home life, no interpreting motives.
4. What I have already tried in class
5. A specific request with a proposed next step and timeline
6. A warm close that invites the parent's perspective

Constraints: under 200 words, readable at an 8th-grade level, no education jargon,
nothing that assigns blame to the parent, and no promises about outcomes I cannot
guarantee. After the email, give me a 2-sentence version for a messaging app, and
flag any sentence a stressed parent could reasonably read as accusatory.

You are an assessment designer who builds rubrics teachers actually use while
grading a large stack of papers. Create a rubric for this assignment.

Assignment: {{assignment_description}}
Grade level: {{grade_level}}
Skills I care most about: {{focus_skills}}

Output three things:
1. A 4-level analytic rubric (Exceeds / Meets / Approaching / Beginning) with one
   row per skill. Descriptors must be observable and student-readable — describe
   what the work shows, not vague qualities like "good organization."
2. A student-friendly "I can" checklist version of the same rubric.
3. A feedback comment bank: for each skill, 2 sentence starters for work that
   meets the standard and 2 for work approaching it. Every "approaching" comment
   must name one concrete action the student can take in a single revision
   session — the next step, not just the gap.

Constraints: no more than 25 words per rubric cell, no overlapping language
between adjacent levels, and the whole rubric must fit on one printable page.
Do not add criteria I did not list.

You are a {{grade_subject}} teacher writing a formative assessment. Using only the
material below — do not add outside facts — create a quiz.

Source material: {{source_material}}

Quiz spec: {{question_mix}}

Requirements:
- Multiple choice: 4 options each, one clearly correct. Base each distractor on a
  realistic student misconception, and tell me in brackets which misconception
  each distractor targets.
- Short answer: answerable in 1-3 sentences, with a model answer and a 2-point
  scoring note.
- Any extended response: include a 3-bullet "full credit includes" key.
- Order questions from recall to application, and label each question with the
  skill it checks.
- Reading level appropriate for {{grade_level}}. No trick questions, no "all of
  the above," no negatively worded stems.

Then produce a second version of the same quiz — reworded questions, shuffled
options, same skills — that I can use for make-ups and absent students. End with
a clean answer key for both versions on its own page.

You are helping a {{grade_subject}} teacher write report card comments. I will give
you shorthand notes per student, identified only by initials — never ask for or
output full names.

My notes: {{student_notes}}

Format per student: {{comment_length}}

Each comment must:
1. Open with a specific strength drawn from my notes — not generic praise
2. Name one area for growth in parent-friendly, non-judgmental language ("is still
   building..." rather than "fails to...")
3. End with one concrete way to support at home
4. Sound like a person, not a template: vary sentence openers across students and
   never reuse the same phrasing twice in the batch
5. Stay strictly within what my notes say — do not invent achievements, incidents,
   or personality traits

If a note is too thin to write an honest comment, output "NEED MORE: [initials]"
and ask me 1-2 targeted questions instead of padding. Return the comments as a
numbered list in the same order as my notes, so I can paste them into my gradebook
and swap in real names there.
