AI for the Classroom

Two separate, easy-to-use resource hubs for BCPSS K–8 teachers. Open the session you need, copy a prompt, adapt it in the workspace, and use the tools safely with teacher judgment.

Use this as a teacher resource hub, not a workshop worksheet. Session 1 supports safe first use, planning, differentiation, feedback, NotebookLM, and family communication. Session 2 supports repeatable workflows: Gems, material makeovers, data sensemaking, student tools, and AI norms.
Session 1 · Start Safely

Practical AI for Planning, Support, and Communication

Use this hub when teachers are new to AI and need clear, copy-ready routines for everyday classroom work.

  • First prompt and verification routine
  • Lesson hook and lesson-plan prompts
  • Differentiation, rubrics, feedback, NotebookLM, and family messages
Session 2 · Build Systems

Beyond Prompts: Reusable Teacher Workflows

Use this hub when teachers are ready to build reusable AI supports and improve materials without lowering rigor.

  • F.A.C.T. quality check
  • Gemini Gems and material makeovers
  • Data sensemaking, student-safe tools, and classroom AI norms

Fast teacher workflow

  1. Choose the session hub.
  2. Find the category that matches the teacher need.
  3. Open the small explanation popup if the tool/resource is unfamiliar.
  4. Copy the prompt or send it to the workspace.
  5. Adapt it, run the F.A.C.T. check, and paste into Google Docs if needed.

Safety anchor

Barrier removed. Thinking preserved. Learning target unchanged.

Teachers should never enter student names, IDs, exact grades, IEP/504 details, or identifying stories into AI tools. Use class-level patterns and anonymized examples only.
