Useful criteria describe what learners can show and how they will know they are progressing. This free tool draws from curated instructional routines and structured templates. It does not analyze classroom video, observe a real lesson, independently verify your rubric, or predict your evaluation rating.
Review the output against your standards, the needs of your students, and your district's current observation framework. If you want a complete lesson package rather than one free planning aid, that option is available after your result is created.
