10 Best AI Tools for Creating Teaching Resources
Teachers spend countless hours preparing worksheets, lesson plans, and classroom resources — time that could otherwise be used to focus on teaching and supporting students. Artificial Intelligence (AI) now offers powerful tools to automate much of this preparation, helping educators, tutors, and parents create high-quality materials in minutes.
Whether you need custom revision tasks, differentiated activities, or creative class projects, these AI-powered platforms can make your workload lighter and your lessons more engaging. Below are 10 of the best AI tools for creating teaching resources efficiently and effectively.
1. Chalk AI
Chalk AI is designed to help teachers quickly generate lesson plans, series, and worksheets. You can select the type of activity you need — from multiple-choice questions to open-ended tasks, vocabulary exercises, or gap-filling passages.
Simply enter the topic, year level, and difficulty, then choose how many questions you want. Chalk AI instantly creates your worksheet, complete with answers, which you can export as a PDF or presentation for classroom use. It’s perfect for discussion prompts and quick assessments.
2. Magic School AI
Magic School offers both teacher mode and student mode, making it ideal for collaborative learning. Teachers can generate worksheets, assessments, feedback forms, presentations, and even choice boards — collections of varied tasks that let students select how they demonstrate understanding.
For example, a Year 10 teacher could create ten unique tasks aligned with a specific learning goal, giving students flexibility and autonomy while still meeting curriculum outcomes.
Add Your Heading Text Here
Diffit is a powerful tool for reading comprehension and content simplification. You can paste an article or topic, and the platform automatically generates a simplified version with a summary, vocabulary list, multiple-choice questions, and short-answer tasks.
You can adjust reading length, add graphic organisers, and download resources as PDFs. This is ideal for literacy differentiation, English as an Additional Language (EAL) learners, or supporting mixed-ability classrooms.
4. TeachMate (Teach.ai)
TeachMate allows educators to generate quizzes, worksheets, and timed activities quickly. You can specify the topic, number of questions, and format — such as multiple-choice or multi-answer questions — and receive a ready-to-use quiz.
The platform also integrates with Kahoot, enabling instant export to interactive quiz formats that can be played live in class. It’s especially useful for revision sessions and quick knowledge checks.
5. Google Gemini
Google Gemini’s AI tool helps teachers create lesson plans, quizzes, and brainstorming resources. You simply enter the year group, topic, and learning objectives, and Gemini will generate a structured lesson or worksheet that can be exported to Google Docs or shared with students online.
It’s a great option for teachers already using Google Workspace, as everything integrates smoothly into the existing classroom ecosystem.
6. Canva + Magic Write
Most educators already use Canva for design, but the Magic Write feature adds AI-driven creativity. You can generate worksheet text, brainstorming ideas, or creative prompts directly inside your design.
Whether you’re creating posters, activity sheets, or visual presentations, Magic Write helps you craft engaging, well-worded content that matches your visual layout — saving time without sacrificing quality.
7. School AI
School AI is an educator-focused platform offering tools for individualised education plans (IEPs), behavioural intervention plans (BIPs), and time-based activities.
You can create lesson plans, goal sheets, and differentiated texts at varying reading levels. It even helps design short 15-minute classroom tasks, complete with materials lists, step-by-step instructions, and learning objectives. This makes School AI particularly useful for special education and supportive learning environments.
8. Wayground
Wayground generates structured worksheets, teacher notes, and ready-to-use activities instantly. By entering your topic — such as “percentages” or “The Outsiders” novel — you receive pre-formatted resources with instructions and extension tasks.
This tool is ideal for teachers who need printable materials fast or who want to supplement existing lesson plans with high-quality support sheets.
9. ChatGPT
ChatGPT (by OpenAI) remains one of the most versatile tools for educators. With the right prompt, it can create custom worksheets, comprehension questions, marking rubrics, and revision tasks in seconds.
By experimenting with prompts and examples, teachers can fine-tune the tone, difficulty, and structure of materials — producing exactly what their students need, whether that’s enrichment work or remedial practice.
10. Brisk
Brisk (available at brisking.com) brings together multiple AI teaching features in one platform. You can generate lesson plans, quizzes, review sheets, presentations, and maths spiral review tasks effortlessly.
Brisk stands out for its simplicity and range — making it an excellent “all-in-one” hub for busy educators who want everything from quick revision materials to detailed instructional plans.
Conclusion
AI is transforming education by reducing workload and empowering teachers to focus on what truly matters: teaching and connecting with students.
From Chalk AI to Brisk, each of these tools offers unique features for planning, creating, and customising classroom resources. By integrating even a few of them into your workflow, you can save hours each week and bring fresh, interactive materials into your lessons.
