Four weeks. One mapped unit. A planning structure you can use across every prep.

Introducing: The Unit Planning Lab

Map Your First Unit This Summer, Then Reuse the Same Structure for Every Prep You Teach

A 4-week planning lab for multi-prep secondary teachers who want one unit finished before August and a repeatable process they can use again without starting from scratch.

Enrollment is open now. The Lab begins the week of June 22, 2026, and your spot is reserved as soon as you join.

One payment. 

No subscription. 

Yours to keep and return to.

If This Feels Familiar, You’re Probably Planning Without a System

You know your subject. That’s not the issue.

The issue is that your standards, saved activities, old files, and half-started plans are all sitting in separate places, and none of them have turned into a unit you can actually teach yet.

You may have:
  • The folders
  • The standards
  • The saved posts
  • The old files
  • The half-started “Unit 1 Ideas” doc
  • And still no clear unit plan
The Unit Planning Lab helps you take what you already have and turn it into one finished unit using a structure you can repeat across your other preps.
Meet the Unit Planning Lab
The Unit Planning Lab is a 4-week guided planning experience where you build one complete unit using the Introduce, Practice, Produce framework.

This is not: 
  • A giant course you buy, file away, and feel guilty about later 
  • A full curriculum overhaul 
  • Another pile of resources to sort through 

This is:
  One unit.
  One clear structure.
  One focused step each week.

By the end, you’ll have a unit mapped, a lesson flow you can reuse, and a planning process you can take into every other prep you teach.
Introduce, Practice, Produce
Every unit needs a clear beginning, middle, and end.

The Introduce, Practice, Produce framework gives you the planning logic so you’re not just arranging activities and hoping they add up.
Introduce
Students first encounter the concept, skill, or big idea.
Practice
Students work with the subject matter in ways that build confidence and repetition.
Produce
Students show what they actually learned.

Once you know how to use this structure for one unit, you can rinse and repeat it across the rest of your preps.

Imagine Walking Into August With One Unit Already Handled
Not perfect. Handled.

After the Lab, you’ll have:
  • A first unit mapped before the back-to-school scramble starts
  • A reusable lesson flow you can bring into your next unit
  • A cleaner way to sort your materials so the good stuff stops getting buried
  • A planning structure that works across preps
  • Fewer “what am I doing tomorrow?” moments during the school year

This is the year you stop planning like you have one prep and unlimited time.

You don’t.

So the system needs to match the reality of your day.
What You’ll Use Inside the Unit Planning Lab
This is intentionally focused.
 
You’re not getting a giant course library, a hundred templates, or another folder full of things to sort through.
 
You’re getting the pieces you need to build one usable unit and understand the structure well enough to use it again.

The Introduce, Practice, Produce Framework The planning structure we’ll use to give your unit a clear beginning, middle, and end.

Weekly Planning Steps One focused action step at a time, so you know exactly what to work on next without trying to build the whole unit in one sitting.

The Resource Sort A straightforward way to look at what you already have and decide what belongs in this unit, what can wait, and what can go.

Support While You Build A place to ask questions, get unstuck, and keep moving as you work through your first unit.

Optional AI Prompts A few prompts you can use if you want help organizing ideas or getting a starting point. Totally optional. You make the instructional decisions.

The goal is not to give you more to manage.
 
The goal is to help you leave with one unit mapped and a process you can come back to when you’re ready for the next one.
Hi, I'm Khristen.
One year, I had nine different preps across two campuses with one planning period trying to hold the whole thing together.
I’m a former high school engineering teacher, school administrator, and current teacher coach who helps multi-prep secondary teachers stop spinning during their planning period and actually finish the work that keeps following them home.

I know what it feels like to have the content, the standards, and the folders, but still not have a plan that feels ready to teach. That’s why I created the Unit Planning Lab: so you don’t have to figure this out alone, late at night, one random internet search at a time.
Here’s what happens after you join

The Unit Planning Lab runs for 4 weeks.

Each week, you’ll get:

  A short planning lesson
Watch it when it works for you. Each lesson walks you through one part of the unit planning process using the Introduce, Practice, Produce framework.

  One focused planning assignment
You’ll use that week’s assignment to build one piece of your unit, so you are not trying to plan the whole thing at once.

  Time to practice and build 

The point is not to watch more training. The point is to use the lesson, apply it to your own course, and make progress on your actual unit.

  A way to submit or share your work for feedback
Because this is an early version of the Lab, I’m still testing the cleanest feedback process. You’ll have a clear place to share your work and get support as you build. 

 
By the end of the 4 weeks, you should have one unit mapped and a planning structure you can come back to for the next one.

Get the Unit Planning Lab for $47

For $47, you get four weeks of focused planning support, the Introduce, Practice, Produce framework, weekly action steps, a resource-sorting process, and support as you build your first unit.

One payment.
No subscription.
Yours to keep and return to.

Doors close Thursday, June 4 at midnight.

If you want to walk into August with your first unit mapped and a structure ready for the rest, this is the time to come in.
The Unit Planning Lab Is for You If...

You’re heading into summer with more than one prep and no clear plan for all of them yet 

You’ve opened everything you have and still couldn’t see how it connected into a unit 

You’re the only teacher in your building covering your courses 

You’ve collected plenty of materials, but you need a way to turn them into a plan 

You want a focused summer planning window without letting school take over the whole break 

Sunday nights feel heavier than they should because next week is still half-planned

You do not need to have your materials organized before you join.

That is part of the work.

You bring the pile. The Lab gives you the structure for sorting it.

  • I teach multiple preps and they’re all completely different. Will this still work for me?
    Yes. That’s exactly why the Lab is built around a repeatable structure instead of a subject-specific template.
  • I’m worried I won’t have enough time this summer.
    Each week has one focused lesson and one planning action step.

    You are mapping one unit, not rebuilding every course you teach.
  • I already have a lot of resources. Do I need more?
    Probably not.

    The Lab helps you sort what you already have and decide what belongs in the unit, what needs to wait, and what can go.
  • Is this only for CTE teachers?
    No.

    This works for CTE, electives, world languages, PE, art, music, science, or any secondary course load where one planning period has to stretch across more than one prep.
  • Do I need to know how to use AI?
    No.

    The AI prompt support is optional.
  • Will I get feedback on my unit?
    Yes. Because this is an early version of the Lab, I’m building in support as you work. Each week, you’ll have a focused assignment and a way to share questions or pieces of your unit so you can get unstuck before moving to the next step.
