A Whiteboard lesson created through Claude from sample teaching notes. Equal-sized fraction bars explain one half plus one quarter, followed by an unanswered practice question.

Prompt

Use the connected ngram tools to create a lesson video for fourth-grade learners about adding one half and one quarter. Lesson source supplied by the teacher: - A whole is divided into equal parts. - One half is the same amount as two quarters. - Rewrite 1/2 + 1/4 as 2/4 + 1/4. - Two quarters plus one quarter is three quarters. - The denominator names the size of the equal parts. Add the numerators when those parts are the same size. - End with this practice question, leaving time to think: What is 1/4 + 1/4? Create a 45-second, 16:9 Whiteboard video with English narration. Use matching rectangular fraction bars divided into four equal parts. Keep the whole the same size in every comparison. Label the fractions clearly, shade exactly the parts being counted and show the equation changing with the explanation. Keep the spoken explanation under 100 words. Use a plain background and large labels that a learner can read. Prepare the video and show the selected settings and total estimate. Ask ngram to stop for plan review. After I confirm creation, bring back the plan before production. Follow the same video to completion and return its preview and ngram project link. Use this conversation for progress checks. If the ngram connector is not connected, read https://www.ngram.com/markdown/docs/connect-ngram-to-claude.md?view=1 and help me connect ngram to Claude. Wait for me to complete sign-in and approve access, then resume this workflow.

A whole can be split into equal parts. Here, each bar has four equal parts called quarters. One half is the same amount as two quarters. So we can rewrite one half plus one quarter as two quarters plus one quarter. The denominator, four, names the size of the parts. When the parts are the same size, we add the numerators. Two plus one is three. So one half plus one quarter equals three quarters. Now you try: what is one quarter plus one quarter? Take a moment to think.

Make

A narrated concept lesson

Give Claude one teachable concept
Paste the request into a Claude conversation with ngram enabled. Add your lesson facts, learner level and worked example. Describe the diagram and the final practice question so the explanation has a clear teaching goal.
Review the worked example before production
Confirm the prepared settings to create the lesson with plan review. Check every equation, label and visual comparison in the returned plan. Ask for corrections in that same video, then approve the plan when it is ready.
Check the finished visual explanation
Ask Claude for progress on the existing lesson. Open the returned preview and compare each diagram with the narration. For fractions, check that every bar represents the same whole and that the shaded parts match the labels.
Bring the lesson into your class
Open the ngram project to review or download the completed video with an eligible plan. Play it before class and pause at the practice question so learners have time to answer.

Read the walkthrough transcript

The recording begins with teaching notes for adding one half and one quarter. Claude retrieves the Whiteboard style. Creation is confirmed with plan review enabled. The lesson plan shows equal-sized bars, the conversion from one half to two quarters, the addition of numerators, and an unanswered practice question. The plan is approved and the same video proceeds to production. The final handoff contains the 1080p MP4 and ngram project link. The complete 43.5-second lesson plays with this narration. A whole can be split into equal parts. Here, each bar has four equal parts called quarters. One half is the same amount as two quarters. So we can rewrite one half plus one quarter as two quarters plus one quarter. The denominator, four, names the size of the parts. When the parts are the same size, we add the numerators. Two plus one is three. So one half plus one quarter equals three quarters. Now you try: what is one quarter plus one quarter? Take a moment to think.

Your starting point

Start with the prompt.

Prepare the lesson in Claude, check ngram’s scene plan and return to the same conversation for the finished video.

Your request for Claude

Open Claude ↗

Connect ngram to Claude

Review. Then deliver.

Claude returns the completed lesson and its ngram project. Watch the full explanation and final practice pause before teaching with it.

While your video is being made

Ask Claude for the current lesson’s progress. Answer a pending question or review the plan when it returns.

Share a link

Open the completed lesson in ngram and choose Share when you want a watch link. Set the visibility to fit the class or audience you intend to reach.

Download the video

Ask Claude to prepare an MP4 and choose an export option available to your ngram account. Download in the ngram project requires an eligible paid plan. Check the saved file before uploading or sending it.

If the workflow needs attention

Ask Claude to check the existing video and explain the reported issue. Keep its project link and use that same video for recovery.

The diagram shows the wrong quantity: Name the scene and describe the exact correction, such as shading three of four equal parts. Ask Claude to revise the existing lesson, then check the diagram and narration together.
The practice question reveals its answer: Ask for the answer to be removed from that scene and its narration. Keep enough thinking time at the end, then replay the revised lesson.
The explanation is too difficult for the class: Give Claude the learners’ prerequisite knowledge and quote the sentence that needs simplifying. Revise the same lesson and check that the mathematical meaning remains accurate.

Keep the workflow. Change the story.

01
Replace the concept and worked example
Keep the learner level and pacing when they still fit. Supply the next lesson’s facts and diagram rules, then review that lesson’s plan before production.
02
Use the practice question to guide the next lesson
Play the video, pause for the question and discuss the learners’ reasoning. Use the points that need another explanation in your next request.
