Drawing canvas for teachers
Draw on an infinite canvas inside your notes
Draw the part words cannot carry.
Some of a year of lesson plans is not sentences. Put a unit on an infinite canvas inside the note, right next to the writing that explains it.
Freehand drawing, shapes, arrows and boxes
The canvas sits in the note as a block, with text above and below it
Follows dark mode, so a canvas drawn at night still reads in the morning
Drawings sync with everything else on a Pro plan
Diagrams without a second app
Boxes and arrows are two clicks away instead of a context switch.
Sketch, then explain underneath
The caption you write is what makes the drawing findable later.
Draw with a pencil in hand
Rough it out on the phone, tidy it up at the desk.
A block, not a separate file
Text above, drawing in the middle, more text underneath.
Legible at night as well
The canvas follows dark mode, so a late sketch still reads in the morning.
Drawings travel too
The sketch is on the other device with everything else on a Pro plan.
What changes
Three things off the Sunday list
Not a feature tour. The three jobs that take less of the weekend once your plans can answer back.
The lesson plan from last year is in a folder called Misc.
Find last year in seconds
Search the way you remember the lesson and get the plan back, along with the notes you left about how it went.
Writing the quiz takes longer than teaching the lesson did.
Make the quiz from the lesson you taught
Generate questions and flashcards straight from your own material instead of writing them from a blank page.
The observation stays in your head until report season, when it is gone.
Keep observations without extra admin
Talk into your phone between classes and read the transcript back when you are writing reports.
A normal term
What that looks like for teachers
Three moments in the year where the app earns its keep.
01
Sunday planning
Pull up the unit folder, adjust last year, and note what you are changing and why.
02
During the week
Record two minutes after a lesson while you still remember what fell flat.
03
Report season
Ask your notes what you recorded about a class over a term and write from that.
The rest of the app
What Else Grape Does
Every part of the app is built around the same idea: keep what you write, and hand it back when you need it.
Questions
Questions Before You Install It
The rest of them live in the help center.
Reuse it every year.
Lesson plans, worksheets, observations and the thing that worked last spring, all in one library you can search by meaning and turn into quiz questions in a minute.
