Lesson Hooks
Attention-grabbing lesson openers that land in the first two minutes.
What Lesson Hooks does
A short menu of ways to open a lesson so the class is curious before you have written anything on the board — a surprising fact, a quick demo, a “what would happen if…” question, a real-life puzzle. Give it the topic and it returns several distinct hooks you can choose between on the day depending on the mood of the class. Perfect for that first minute or two that decides whether students lean in or switch off.
Every input, explained
This reference is generated from the live tool definition, field by field.
Pick the education board (CBSE, CIE, state boards…). Every dropdown after this cascades from it, and the generated output follows that board’s syllabus wording. Required.
The class the material is for — sets age-appropriate depth and vocabulary. Required.
Subject list is scoped to the board and class you picked above. Required.
e.g. e.g. Introduction to fractions Required.
Default: 5. Optional.
Choices: Concise — quick and tight · Standard · Detailed — extra depth & examples. Default: Standard. Optional.
Choices: Yes — AI adds diagrams & images where helpful · No — text only. Default: Yes. Optional.
Additional customization (optional)
e.g. Anything else the AI should keep in mind — tone, format, constraints, examples… Optional.
How to use it
Open Edukali AI Toolkit → All Tools, find Lesson Hooks under Planning and click the card.
Fill in Board, Grade / Class, Subject, Topic (the remaining fields are optional).
Choose an Output depth and, if you like, a specific AI model, then click Generate.
Not sure what to type? Click **Show example** in the form header — it fills every field with a real worked example (CBSE · Class 6 · Science) and shows a pre-generated result without spending any AI credits. Undo restores your draft.
The runner also gives you a ✨ prompt assistant and voice input on text fields, file upload to pull in your own notes, and — where your board publishes one — an official-format proof panel.
Your document & what to do with it
The result renders as a clean A4 document you can read on screen. From the output header you can Copy it, **Export** it as a branded PDF, Word, HTML or Markdown file, or send it into an LMS course as a page activity with **Add to Course**. One click on **Save to My Resources** keeps the result in your library for later.
Generate a handful and keep the two or three that suit your class — a hook that works for a lively Class 6 is rarely the one that works for a sleepy post-lunch period, and now you have both ready.
