Let's build a plan your student actually wants to sit down for

Most of this is tapping, and there are no wrong answers. Every detail you give becomes part of the lessons — so the work ends up looking like the things your student already loves, instead of one more worksheet they'll fight you on.

About you

So I know where to send the finished plan.

I am a *
Please choose one.
Is this for one child, or more than one? *

Each child gets their own form, since no two are alike. If you're doing more than one, I'll hand you a shortcut link at the end so you never type your own details twice.

Working with several students? Submit this form once per student. After your first submission I'll send you a bulk intake link so you don't have to re-enter your own details each time.

About the student

First name only is fine.

If they work above or below grade level in a subject, tell me in the notes at the end — I'll write to their actual level, not just their grade.

What language(s) are spoken at home? *

Check all that apply — knowing a student hears one language at home and another at school changes how I write reading and vocabulary work.

IEP & learning profile

This is what makes the plan genuinely adaptive instead of generic.

Does this student have an IEP or 504 plan? *
Sending me the IEP (optional — but it makes the plan noticeably sharper)

If you have the PDF, I'll pull the goals and accommodations straight from it instead of asking you to summarize them from memory. Entirely optional — the questions below cover the essentials either way.

Why there's no upload button here: an IEP is a protected education record. Rather than route your child's file through a third-party form service, email it straight to me at lukezuber10@gmail.com — that keeps it in one place I control. I'll show you that address again on the next screen. It's used only to build this student's plan, never shared with anyone, and deleted the moment you ask.

These are the federal IDEA eligibility categories. Pick the closest one, or leave it alone if you're not sure — the next question matters more.

The everyday version. "Melts down when writing is involved." "Can read the words but can't tell me what happened." That's more useful to me than a label.

These two numbers are usually very different, and the gap tells me how to pace the week.

How would you describe their energy? *

What to avoid, and what helps

Four questions, all taps. This is the section that keeps a lesson from going sideways on a Tuesday night — the wrong task in the wrong shape can end a session before it starts. If none of the options fit, say so and move on.

Anything here that's a hard no? *

Things that reliably end the session. I'll design around every one of these — including standard teaching tricks, if they conflict.

Pick at least one, or choose "None of these."

A character they've outgrown and now find babyish, a topic that upsets them, a subject that triggers shutdown.

When something is too hard, what usually happens? *

Knowing the shape of it tells me how early to back off and where to put the easy wins.

Pick at least one, or choose "Hasn't come up."
And what helps them come back? *

Whatever already works at home. I'd rather build around your method than invent a new one.

Pick at least one, or choose "Still figuring it out."
What actually motivates them? *
Pick at least one, or choose "Nothing reliable yet."

Movement & regulation

My background is in exercise science as well as inclusion — movement breaks are built into every plan unless you'd rather they weren't.

Would you like movement built into the lessons?

Check all that apply.

Copy them straight from the therapy report if you have it — bilateral coordination, core strength, crossing midline, pencil grip, /r/ sound in conversation, whatever's on there.

Injuries, mobility needs, asthma, low muscle tone, balance issues, a space the size of a bedroom rug. Say so and I'll design around it.

Any sensory things worth knowing?

Tap anything that sounds like them.

How you want it delivered

The best curriculum in the world is useless in a format you won't open.

How do you and the student work best? *

Check all that apply — most families use a mix.

Can you print at home? *

You said hard copies, so this one matters — it decides whether I build pages that need printing or pages that work just as well read off a screen.

No printer is a fine answer. I'll build it to work without one.

How many lessons per week? *
How many days should the calendar cover?
How long should each lesson run? *

What to work on

Pick as many as you like — I'll weight the plan toward whatever matters most.

Which subjects do you want help with? *

A goal tells me more than a subject does. "Gets through homework without a fight." "Reads a chapter and can actually tell me what happened." "Focuses better in school." If it really is about one subject, say that instead — either works.

If you're not sure, leave it — I'll weight it from your answer above.

Interests & obsessions

This is the most important section on the form. Everything here becomes the theme of the lessons — the word problems, the reading passages, the characters, the rewards. A kid who won't do a math worksheet will absolutely do a Minecraft math worksheet. Be as specific as you possibly can.

What are they into? *

Check every category that applies — more options will open up underneath each one.

The one thing they'd bring up unprompted at dinner. That's the highest-leverage detail on this whole form.

Anything else

The thing that didn't fit in a checkbox.

Reading two grades below, ahead in math, a diagnosis in progress, a rough school year, something that happened last week — anything you'd tell a tutor on day one.

Your student's opening week arrives within 3 business days — print-ready, with everything you need to run it. Nothing to set up on your end.

Here's what I've got

Read it over. If something's off, go back and fix it — this is exactly what I'll build the plan from.
