Step by step
The workflow to follow inside Planlark.
These steps are ordered to match how the planner works in practice, so later actions build on the context created in earlier ones.
2
Paste curriculum text or ask Lark to import it
You can paste curriculum standards directly, upload source material, or ask Lark something like “Import the Alberta Social 9 curriculum.” Planlark will attempt to structure parent outcomes, sub-outcomes, and guiding questions.
3
Review the curriculum import QA summary
After import, check the counts for top-level outcomes, child outcomes, and guiding questions. If something looks thin or incomplete, ask Lark to re-run the import or paste a more complete source before approving it.
4
Confirm that the import is complete
Planlark is designed to ask whether anything is missing before the curriculum is approved for broader reuse. This is the right time to spot missing subpoints, weak codes, or missing guiding questions.
5
Use the outcomes in planning
Once the import looks right, link outcomes to units, build a year plan, generate lesson sequences, or ask Lark to show coverage gaps. Imported curriculum becomes most useful when it is connected to real planning work, not left as a standalone list.

FAQ
Questions teachers usually ask here.
What if sub-outcomes or guiding questions are missing?
Do not approve the import yet. Re-import with a better source, ask Lark to re-run the import, or edit the outcome records so the structure is complete before reusing it.
Why does Planlark ask me to confirm the import?
Because curriculum records may be reused later. Approval is the checkpoint that keeps incomplete imports from becoming the shared version others depend on.
