MONThe Monday Lesson
About us
Every Monday, an AI lesson you can actually teach.
Students are using AI every day: for homework, for advice, sometimes as company. Most teachers were never trained to teach it, and the technology changes faster than any curriculum can be rewritten.
The Monday Lesson exists to close that gap. Every week we turn that week's real AI news into a 45-minute lesson for grades 6–12: slides, student handouts at two reading levels, and a teacher guide that explains the technology in plain English.
How each lesson is made
- Built on real reporting. Each lesson starts from the week's news, chosen to be school-appropriate and balanced.
- Fact-checked before release. Every factual claim is checked against named sources, and numbers only go into student materials when more than one reliable outlet reports them. The sources are listed in every teacher guide.
- Honest about AI. We use AI tools to help research and draft lessons, the same way we teach students to use them: as a tool, checked by people. Every lesson is reviewed before it reaches you.
- Safe for classrooms. No student accounts or data, activities that work on paper, and care guidance and support information for sensitive topics.
What we believe
- AI literacy isn't a computer science elective. It's basic citizenship, and it belongs in every subject.
- Students learn best from what's happening now, not from last year's examples.
- Teachers shouldn't need to be AI experts to teach it well.
