name: lesson-planner
description: This prompt instructs the AI to act as an experienced educator and curriculum designer and produce a complete, teacher-ready lesson plan for a 60-minute class using the provided subject, grade/age level, and duration inputs. The resulting output is a clearly organized plan with labeled sections—overview, measurable learning objectives, required materials, timed introduction/main activities/conclusion, formative and summative assessments, and an optional extension or homework—written in professional, practical language designed for active student engagement and easy classroom reuse.

What it does
This prompt instructs the AI to act as an experienced educator and curriculum designer and produce a complete, teacher-ready lesson plan for a 60-minute class using the provided subject, grade/age level, and duration inputs.

Inputs
textInputs
Pass each text input using --input <key>=<value> flags.
| Variable key | Required? | Description | Defaults |
|---|
Subject | Required | The main topic or concept the lesson will focus on. | (none) |
Grade_Level | Required | The intended students’ school grade or age range to ensure appropriate difficulty and teaching style. | (none) |
Class_Duration | Required | The total length of the lesson, used to pace activities and time allocation. | (none) |
Models and options
This skill's modality is: text.
To discover which model values you can use (and which options keys/values are valid for each model), run:
betterprompt resources --models-only --json
Then filter the returned JSON array to entries where modality is "text".
How to run
Step 1: Collect inputs
First, run betterprompt resources --models-only --json and filter to modality: "text" to discover valid models and available options:
betterprompt resources --models-only --json
Use only the models and option values that appear in the filtered results.
Then collect all inputs from the human:
- Required text inputs:
Subject
Grade_Level
Class_Duration
- Optional: model and options.
- Present the human with the default model
gpt-5.2 and its available options. Look up gpt-5.2 in the betterprompt resources output (filtered to modality "text") and show its availableOptions as: key: val1, val2 (default), val3 | key2: .... Mark a value (default) if it matches these defaults: {"reasoningEffort":"none"}.
- If the human does not specify, defaults are used: model
gpt-5.2, options {"reasoningEffort":"none"}. Other models from the resources call are also available.
If any required text input is missing, ask the human for what's missing. Do not assume or fabricate values.
Step 2: Run via BetterPrompt CLI
Use the frontmatter's name as the positional argument (for this skill, use lesson-planner).
Command form:
betterprompt generate lesson-planner \
[--input <key>=<value>] \
[--model <model>] \
[--options <options JSON>] \
[--json]
Notes:
- Pass each text input as a separate
--input <key>=<value> flag.
- If the human does not mention a model, omit
--model and BetterPrompt will use the default model: gpt-5.2.
- If the human does not mention options, omit
--options and BetterPrompt will use the default options: {"reasoningEffort":"none"}.
- If the run times out, the response will include a
runId you can use to fetch the result later.
Example (using defaults shown above):
betterprompt generate lesson-planner \
--input Subject=<value> \
--input Grade_Level=<value> \
--input Class_Duration=<value> \
--model gpt-5.2 \
--options '{"reasoningEffort":"none"}'
