What it does
Tell Claude the historical document or source type you're teaching with. Claude creates a step-by-step lesson, including a teacher think-aloud, prompts about language and tone, and common student mistakes with fixes. You get a full lesson for building students' skill at reading sources critically rather than just summarizing them.
Who it’s for
A good fit for teachers, trainers and course creators.
Do you need to code?
No. You can use this without writing or editing any code.
How to install
Add it as a skill, or as part of its plugin. This skill also ships inside a plugin, so you can upload just this skill to Claude, or install the whole plugin it comes in. See the step-by-step guide.
Safety note
Nothing specific was flagged when we reviewed this listing.
As with any add-on, only install skills from sources you trust, and read what it does first.
