Understanding Your Child's Progress
What the bars, streaks and badges really mean — and what they do not.
🧭 What parents can do
Look at trends over weeks, not single sessions. Celebrate climbing bars and finished challenges. Use the focus areas to choose tomorrow's 10 minutes.
🪜 Step-by-step
- Open the progress dashboard together
- Find one skill that has climbed this month — celebrate it
- Find one skill to practise tomorrow
- Ask your child what they think of the numbers
🏡 Try this activity
Look at this week's report together and pick ONE thing to practise. Just one.
❓ Questions to ask
- “Which skill are you proudest of?”
- “Which one is getting easier?”
- “What makes a skill easier for you?”
⚠️ Common mistakes
Reading a single score as a judgement of the child. Skills grow at different speeds, on purpose.
