From My Classroom to Yours

The Story Behind My Lesson Plans

Creating a lesson plan for literature lessons can be a time-consuming process, especially when aiming to craft meaningful and engaging classes. While tools like ChatGPT can assist, no computer can replace the thought, creativity, and care that a teacher pours into a lesson plan. That’s why investing in well-prepared, ready-to-use resources for your literature lessons can make a world of difference.

As a teacher myself, I understand the challenges of preparing a full lesson plan for a book or short story. It takes hours to design thoughtful activities, format materials, and plan out each step of a class. I’ve been there - spending evenings and weekends trying to get everything just right. That’s why I’ve created lesson plans that not only save you time but also ensure high-quality learning experiences.

My materials include pre-formatted PowerPoint presentations and editable Word documents, designed to help you hit the ground running. And because these files are customizable, you can tweak them to fit your teaching style or classroom needs. I chose Word and PowerPoint for this very reason: to give teachers the flexibility they need while taking care of the tedious formatting for you.

There’s a German saying: “Das Rad muss nicht immer neu erfunden werden” - the wheel doesn’t always have to be reinvented. With my ready-made resources, you can focus your energy on what really matters: connecting with your students and creating engaging discussions in your literature lessons.

I’ve tested every single resource in my own classroom, ensuring that the materials not only work but also resonate with students. These aren’t generic lesson plans pulled from a template - they’re thoughtful and tested tools that I’ve refined over years of teaching.

For newer teachers, in particular, I want to offer inspiration and support. Why spend hours preparing a lesson for a book when you can access a fully-developed lesson plan? By investing in these resources, you’ll save precious time and bring high-quality, engaging activities into your classroom - without sacrificing your evenings.
