The linear structure of single-topic lesson make them ideal for lessons with a single topic. Learners move sequentially through the blocks from beginning to end. You can follow the flow of the learning order by observing the arrows in the storyboard view. Blocks are ordered from left to right across each row.

To create a single topic lesson:

1. Navigate to your lesson library.
2. Roll your mouse over the New Lesson block under Start from Scratch.
