Teacher resources that match your timetable
Shelf works as a quiet prep library for teachers and tutors: one collection per class section or subject, topics for units or weeks, and root pages for school policies and rubrics.
Upload publisher PDFs and your own worksheets as separate pages — the same structure you already use when preparing lesson notes.
Preparing lesson notes with annotations
Highlight examples you will work on the board. Mark extension questions for advanced students. Keep answer keys in a private topic students never see.
Ask Tutor for three easier rephrasings of this problem using the worksheet text — then edit for your classroom voice. That is lesson-note prep without leaving the PDF.
Share lesson handouts with students
When a handout is ready, Share Shelf pages with view access so students open the same PDF in their library. Keep proprietary worksheets private; only share what you intend to distribute.
Need a group chat delivery? Send to Telegram from the Share dialog, or point a class to free public curriculum on /learn when it fits the unit.
Tutor libraries
Tutors juggling many students can keep a Master materials collection and per-student note docs — still private to your account.
Calendar for sessions
Planner events for classes; tasks for photocopy or LMS upload reminders linked to the handout page.
Reuse next year
Rename titles, keep slugs stable, and pin the active term. Last year’s highlights remain as institutional memory when you prepare the same lesson notes again.
Curriculum vs personal prep
Point students to public /learn packs when relevant; keep your proprietary worksheets only in your private library.
Tablet markup
Sketch notebooks help when you draft diagrams before class. Pair with PDF handouts in split view while preparing lesson notes.
Boundaries
Shelf stores your prep — student PII should stay in your school systems. Use Shelf for materials and lesson notes, not gradebooks.
