What you’ll learn: the essential steps to take before creating a lesson.
Time required: 3 minutes

🎯 Explore the Curriculum

Remember that teachers often use your lessons alongside their own materials, unless your content completely replaces their existing resources. To ensure alignment, take the time to familiarise yourself with the curriculum. Teaching goals are clearly outlined in textbooks, so reviewing a textbook can help you understand them and consider how your expertise can complement them.

Explore these resources:
Collaborate with schools or teachers to ensure your lesson materials meet their needs.

🎯 DEFINE LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Make your learning objectives specific and student-focused. Our recommendation is to set no more than three learning objectives per lesson.

💡 Tip: Always phrase the learning goal from the student’s perspective, for example:
“By the end of this lesson, you will be able to…”
