iTeachWise gives Montana families AI-powered lesson planning, standards-aligned materials, differentiated instruction, IEP-aligned supports, and assessments — whether you teach a single child at home or run a small microschool.

Unlike general AI lesson tools, iTeachWise is built for homeschool families and special education: every lesson, worksheet, and assessment is IEP-aligned and standards-aligned. As a convenience, plan purchases include purchase records formatted for scholarship documentation (see the sample record) — confirm what your program covers with your state's program.

Documentation support for Montana families

Montana SSOs audit scholarship spending against approved-use categories. iTeachWise is not on any approved list for Montana's tax-credit scholarship program; every purchase generates an itemized, timestamped purchase record formatted for scholarship documentation, plus a per-student annual learning summary referencing Montana Content Standards. Whether purchases qualify is determined entirely by the state's tax authority and program rules — keep your receipts and confirm with the program or a tax professional.

Vendor status: iTeachWise is not an approved or listed vendor in Montana. Families should verify eligibility with their program before purchasing.

Three things Montana families ask iTeachWise to do

1. Plan. Generate a full week of lessons aligned to Montana state standards in under 10 minutes per subject.
2. Differentiate. One-click adaptations for IEP, ELL, and gifted learners — every variant tagged to the matching IEP goal or ELL accommodation.
3. Document. Purchase records formatted for scholarship documentation (see the sample record), plus IEP-aligned progress notes for your own files.
