Monsha’s Lesson Plan Generator lets you create thoughtful, grade-appropriate lesson plans in seconds. Each plan is aligned to short-term lesson objectives as well as your longer-term unit and course outcomes. That makes it fit naturally into your overall teaching sequence.
You can generate a plan using any combination of source materials: links, videos, text, files, curriculum standards, or even other resources you've already made in Monsha.
Step 1: Open the Lesson Plan Generator
Go to app.monsha.ai, log in or sign up, and choose Lesson Plan from the list of tools.
Step 2: (Optional) Assign to a course, unit, or lesson
If you're working within a course or unit, you can assign this lesson plan to keep things organised and structured. This also helps Monsha automatically align your content with learning objectives you've already set—and ensures consistency across lessons.
You can skip this step and assign it later.
Step 3: Add your source material
Choose what you want to base your lesson on. You can use multiple inputs to provide better context. Options include:
Topic or theme – e.g. “The Water Cycle”, “Shakespearean Tragedy”, or a standard code
Existing Monsha resources – build your lesson plan off a worksheet, quiz, slide deck, etc.
Web link – paste the URL of an article, textbook, PDF, or site
YouTube video – Monsha analyses the full transcript, not just the title
Uploaded file – add a document, slideshow, spreadsheet, or image
Text excerpt – paste any passage of text
Curriculum expectations – use built-in standards (e.g. NGSS, CCSS) or input your own
Lesson objectives – if this lesson is linked to a course or unit, Monsha will pull in objectives automatically (you can edit them too)
Combine multiple sources to enhance your presentation, then click Next.
Step 4: Set grade level and language
If you didn’t assign a course earlier, you’ll be asked to select the grade and language here.
Step 5: Choose which components to include
Select the sections you want in your plan and arrange them in your preferred order:
At a glance
Objectives & Learning Outcomes
Standards Addressed
Material & Resources Needed
Key Concepts
Assessment and Evaluation
Differentiation Strategy
21st Century Skills / College & Career Readiness
Instructional Sequence
Step 6: (Optional) Add specific instructions
You can guide the AI to focus on certain approaches, like:
“Include cooperative learning activities.”
“Make it suitable for ESL learners.”
“Include an exit ticket.”
Step 7: (Optional) Set educational frameworks
You can also adapt your plan by selecting:
Bloom’s Taxonomy level
DOK (Depth of Knowledge)
Lexile reading level
Step 8: Click Generate
Click Generate and Monsha will create a full, editable lesson plan based on your inputs.
Things you can do after generating your lesson plan
Once the lesson plan is generated, you can continue refining, adapting, and extending it to suit your teaching needs:
Edit it: Fine-tune the content using Monsha’s editor. You can rewrite instructions, restructure the flow, or add visuals, tables, and equations—all while keeping the lesson aligned with your learning goals.
Refine with feedback: If something feels off, use Quick Actions or write your feedback to re-generate any section—whether to adjust tone, add depth, or shift the instructional focus.
Differentiate: Tailor your lesson for different groups by adjusting the grade level, Lexile level, Bloom’s taxonomy, DOK, or even language. Useful for mixed-ability classes or supporting multilingual learners.
Export in multiple formats: Save your plan as a DOCX, PDF, or Google Doc—ready to print, share, or submit as part of a portfolio or school requirement.
Extend into other resources: Quickly generate aligned materials—like worksheets, presentations, or assessments—based on your lesson plan’s objectives and content focus.
All your lesson plans are saved in your Monsha account so you can access, reuse, or revise them anytime.
