The Description
'What did I miss?' is a very reasonable question—especially when it arrives while you're answering eleven other things. This free Class Recap template is for the days when typing out the same explanation again is the last thing you need.
You record what actually happened in class, what students need to finish, and what comes next. A supplied editing prompt helps organize your own notes into something an absent student can follow. You're still in charge of accuracy; AI doesn't get to invent yesterday's lesson.
What Students Will Do
Teachers record what happened, what is due, and what resources students need
use the supplied editing prompt to organize their own account
post the recap to their learning platform.
Why This Resource Is Different
I want technology to make a teacher's actual work easier, not invent a very polished version of a lesson that never happened. This recap routine begins with what you really taught, assigned, and discussed.
The editing prompt simply helps organize that information for an absent student. You review the result. It's a practical way to reduce the 'What did I miss?' traffic without handing the truth of your classroom over to a chatbot.
