What is an AI lesson plan generator?

An AI lesson plan generator is a tool that uses artificial intelligence to produce structured lesson plans automatically. Teachers input a topic, grade level, and learning goal — the AI outputs a complete plan including objectives, activities, timing, and assessment strategies.

Flip takes this further by grounding every plan in a specific curriculum framework. Rather than generating generic content, it draws from a database of 20,000+ curriculum-mapped topics across 10 countries, then applies one of 48 researched active learning methodologies — from Socratic seminars to mock trials to jigsaw activities — to shape the lesson structure.

The result is a lesson that is tied to your country's standards, appropriate for your grade level, and structured around a pedagogy with a research base — not just a summary of what to cover.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about AI-generated lesson plans.

Is Flip's AI lesson plan generator free?

Yes. You can generate lesson plans for free — no account required to try the generator. Flip offers a generous free tier so teachers can explore the tool before committing.

How is this different from asking ChatGPT to write a lesson plan?

ChatGPT generates generic lesson content and requires you to verify curriculum alignment manually. Flip starts from your specific curriculum topic (drawn from a database of 20,000+ topics across 10 countries), then applies one of 48 researched active learning methodologies — producing a structured, printable plan with teacher notes, discussion questions, and an exit ticket already included.

Are the lesson plans curriculum-aligned?

Yes. Flip's curriculum database covers the US Common Core and state standards, the UK National Curriculum, the Australian Curriculum (ACARA), Brazil's BNCC, and seven other national frameworks. Every generated lesson plan is tied to a specific topic and grade level in your country's curriculum.

Which subjects and grade levels does it support?

Flip covers the full national curriculum across 10 countries, including Mathematics, Science, Language Arts, History, Geography, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Arts, Computing, and more, from Kindergarten through Grade 12 (or equivalent).

Can I customize the generated lesson plan?

Yes. After generating, you can adjust the methodology, time available, class size, and focus area. The generator also produces printable student materials that you can edit and print directly.
