A few weeks ago we realized something frustrating: there's no central place where K-12 educators can share AI-powered lessons with each other.
There are blog posts. There are PDFs locked behind paywalls. There are Twitter threads that disappear. But no open, forkable, living library that any teacher can add to.
So we built one.
What it is
Emerging Rule Community is an open GitHub repository of AI-powered lesson plans for K-12 educators, researchers, and builders. Free. Bilingual (English & Spanish). And — crucially — no coding experience required to contribute.
👉 github.com/Emerging-Rule/community
What's already inside
A math lesson where students catch AI making arithmetic mistakes (grades 3–5)
A bilingual story-writing lesson using AI as a "story robot" (K–2, English/Spanish)
A climate science debate lesson where students fact-check AI claims (grades 6–8)
A digital citizenship lesson on authorship and AI voice (grades 9–12)
A bilingual number sense lesson taught entirely in Spanish (K–3)
Every lesson includes grade level, subject, sample AI prompts, differentiation notes, and a CC BY 4.0 license.
Why GitHub?
Because it's version-controlled, forkable, and free forever. A teacher in Puerto Rico can fork this repo, adapt a lesson for their classroom, and send it back. A researcher can cite a specific commit. A curriculum designer can submit a pull request.
And if GitHub feels intimidating — there's an email fallback. Send us your lesson and we add it for you.

What we need most right now
We have 5 open "good first issues":
A Science lesson for grades 3–5
A Social Studies / History lesson for middle school
A Computer Science lesson (any grade)
A Spanish-only version of our number sense lesson
An AI + Education reading list for teachers
If you've ever built something interesting in an ed context — a lesson, a prompt library, a workshop template — this is the place for it.
