Math

Number sense first, then the arithmetic and the shapes, measures and data work that school actually examines. Each topic ends in a Practice Zone that builds a fresh question set every visit.

Analytical

The reasoning no subject teaches directly: spotting patterns, following a rule, working backwards from a result, and telling a sound argument from a plausible one.

General Knowledge

The world outside the syllabus — countries and flags, landmarks, the human body, history, space and the natural world. Broad, curious, and the quickest route to a child who asks questions.

Science
