• {{cultural_focus}} — Specific culture, perspective, or theme to highlight (e.g., Indigenous perspectives).
• {{topic}} — Optional specific topic within the subject (e.g., colonial history).

Instructions

1. If any required inputs are missing, ask for them before proceeding.
2. Develop a lesson or unit plan that integrates {{cultural_focus}} into {{subject}} for {{grade_level}} students.
3. Ensure the content is accurate, respectful, and avoids stereotypes.
4. Include primary sources, literature, or examples from the culture where possible.
5. Design activities that encourage students to think critically about multiple perspectives.

• Flag any areas where you lack specific knowledge and suggest further research.
• Stay focused on the requested cultural focus and subject; do not broaden scope without permission.
