Product walkthrough · example learning data

A little practice. A clearer way forward.

Read the walkthrough

Follow an example learning journey: a personal plan, a multi-step fractions problem, a worked explanation from Sprout and progress you can understand.

  1. Personal plan. A focused learning plan, with a reason behind every topic.
  2. Daily practice. Apply fractions to a real situation. Work through each step.

    32 pupils are in a class. 3/8 cycle to school. Half of the rest walk. How many walk?

  3. Ask Sprout. See the reasoning, then help your child explain why it works.

    1. Cycling: 32 ÷ 8 × 3 = 12 pupils.

    2. Remaining: 32 − 12 = 20 pupils.

    3. Walking: 20 ÷ 2 = 10 pupils.

    Ask: why do we halve 20, rather than 32?

  4. Clear progress. Understand their strengths and where a little more practice could help.

See it. Understand it. Work through it.

A difficult topic doesn’t have to keep them stuck.
