Start with what’s understood
A short preliminary skill check is designed to look for evidence and identify what may need more practice.

In the first pilot, children practice Grade 1 addition and subtraction within 20. The same skill can be presented in different ways to help a child find a comfortable path into the problem.

The first stepA clear foundation
A clear foundation
for what comes next.
The pilot focuses on addition and subtraction within 20. When a child repeatedly finds a problem difficult, a short check of earlier number skills can help us choose what to practice next.
Practice in a helpful way
Four presentation modes are being designed around the same math skill: Standard, Visual-first, Calm/Focus and Guided/Story.
Understand the next step
A parent summary is designed to explain observed evidence and where extra support may help.
Designed with room to pause. Calm presentation, readable controls and accessible settings are part of the experience from the start.
