What a lesson is like

In a lesson your child talks out loud with their AI teacher, one to one, while a shared board shows pictures, questions and hands-on models. Lessons are planned for 20 to 45 minutes, and go like this:

1. 1

   Warm-up

   A quick question about something from before.

2. 2

   Today's challenge

   A question to wonder about, which the lesson answers.

3. 3

   Sam's idea

   Sam, an AI classmate, shares an idea that isn't quite right, and your child helps sort it out.

4. 4

   Learn it

   The teacher shows the new idea on the board, step by step, with something to build, move or act out along the way.

5. 5

   Talk it over

   Your child talks an idea over with Sam, backs it with the exact words that show it, and says Sam's side back before disagreeing.

6. 6

   Together

   They answer questions together. When your child is stuck, the teacher gives a small hint, one step at a time.

7. 7

   Another way to see it · only when needed

   If it hasn't clicked yet, the teacher explains it a different way.

8. 8

   On your own

   Your child tries a few questions on their own.

9. 9

   Exit ticket

   A few last questions, without hints, to show what your child has got.

10. 10

    Wrap-up

    The teacher sums up what they learned.

After each lesson your child finishes, you get a short report: the learning goals, how your child did, and what comes next. Each class also has a time limit: when it's reached before the lesson is done, the teacher wraps up kindly and your child's place is saved for next time.

In your child's settings you can choose another grade for any subject, or leave one out for now, and any curriculum's and grade's lessons are one tap away.
