Teacher planning studio
Connect six practice skills across three flexible grade bands. Every route pairs a clear learning goal with a browser game, an offline task, an evidence prompt, and a next teaching move.
Planning lens
Use concrete examples, short turns, modelling, and spoken explanation.
Invite a strategy, test it, and ask what changed after the first attempt.
Compare approaches, justify a claim, and make a purposeful revision.
Connected progression
Grade bands are starting points, not placement levels. Adjust the support, challenge, and pace for the learner in front of you.

Extend

Track a moving target and respond at a chosen moment instead of tapping early.
Notice

Make offline
Follow and draw a short arrow sequence at a comfortable pace.
Look and listen for
What helped you wait for the right moment?
Support
Use one lane or direction at a time and practise a steady beat together.
Extend
Create an eight-arrow pattern and perform it with claps or steps.
Choose and explain
Compare quantities or measurements and include the correct unit in an explanation.
Notice
Notice whether the question asks for a total, a difference, or a comparison.
Make offline
Solve measurement comparisons and label every answer with a unit.
Look and listen for
What words told you which operation or comparison to use?
Support
Draw or place the two quantities side by side before calculating.
Extend
Write a new comparison problem using two objects in the room.

Plan a short route, test it, and revise the first step that does not work.
Notice
Notice where the actual route first differs from the planned route.
Make offline
Draw an algorithm with a start, actions, a decision, and an end.
Look and listen for
Which step changed after you tested the plan?
Support
Plan only the next two moves, test them, and then add two more.
Extend
Find a second route and compare its number of moves.

Use a deliberate strategy to remember positions, pairs, or visual details.
Notice
Notice whether location words, grouping, or a quiet pause helps memory.
Make offline
Map the strategy used and identify one distraction to reduce next time.
Look and listen for
How did you describe a location in your mind?
Support
Reduce the number of pairs and use position words such as top-left.
Extend
Explain the layout to a partner without pointing.
Use letter patterns and context to read, spell, and use useful words.
Notice
Notice repeated letter pairs, word endings, and meaningful word parts.
Make offline
Build a word search from a focus list and then use selected words in sentences.
Look and listen for
Which letter pattern was easiest to spot?
Support
Use six short words with clearly different first letters.
Extend
Group the words by shared spelling pattern or meaning.
Plan a creation for a user, test one idea, and make a purposeful revision.
Notice
Notice how size, shape, colour, and arrangement affect how the design works.
Make offline
Sketch a first version, label key parts, and record one revision.
Look and listen for
Who is your design for, and what do they need?
Support
Choose one user need and sketch only the most important part.
Extend
Add a constraint such as limited space, pieces, or colours.
Coordinate visual information with accurate directional movement and timing.
Notice
Notice whether looking ahead gives more time to prepare the next movement.
Make offline
Translate a movement sequence into arrows and rehearse it slowly.
Look and listen for
Where were your eyes just before a successful move?
Support
Practise four arrows slowly before increasing speed.
Extend
Create two routes that reach the same endpoint.
Use evidence and revise
Change one variable in a model, record the result, and make a cautious evidence-based conclusion.
Notice
Notice which variable changed and which observations should stay comparable.
Make offline

Look and listen for
What evidence supported or changed your prediction?
Support
Compare only two surfaces and use a simple more/less result table.
Extend

Look and listen for
What condition controls the choice between the two paths?
Support
