Adaptive practice for homeschool families

Your child’s learning path, lit one step at a time.

Short daily missions in reading and math that adapt to every answer, so your child always practices what they’re ready for. And each evening, Blink sends you a note about what’s working.

What kids learn

A path made for each child

LightPath follows the reading and math skills your child is learning right now, and lights each one up as they master it. Every mission starts exactly where your child is ready.

How it works

Twenty minutes a day. One note a night.

1

Daily missions

Ten to twenty minutes your child does on their own. Each mission adapts to every answer, and every mistake becomes a short lesson with pictures.

Every day10–20 min

2

Weekly check-ins

A few minutes, the same kinds of questions each week and no hints, so a rising line means real progress.

Once a weekNo hints

Blink’s evening note

What to celebrate, what to watch, and a question only when your call matters.

Every eveningFor you

Mistakes become lessons

Counted one short? Swapped tens and ones? Kids see exactly what happened, then try again.

Listening before tapping

Choices wait until the question is heard, so fast guessing never wins.

Celebrations that mean something

Small cheers for effort, and the big ones for real milestones.

Follows your curriculum

Missions track the lessons you’re teaching, so practice and teaching point the same way.

For parents

Blink reads every answer, so you don’t have to.

Each evening you get a few lines in plain words, and a question only when a decision is yours. Tell Blink anything you notice; he reads every note before he changes a plan.

  • See progress at a glance, from home or on the road.
  • Each child has a profile; a parent PIN keeps the grown-up pages grown-up.
  • You stay the teacher. LightPath handles the practice.

Tonight’s note

From Blink · Tuesday evening · an example

Maya finished her board in 22 minutes and got 11 of 12 adding facts right the first time. Theo reads more steadily when he taps every sound first, so tomorrow’s reading mission keeps that step.

Theo’s check-in is Wednesday. Could you listen for one minute while he reads?

The science

Built on what’s known to work.

Tutoring that adapts

Responsive one-on-one tutoring is among the most effective things education research has found.

Nickow, Oreopoulos & Quan, 2020

Short, spaced practice

Practice spread over days, and recalling answers instead of rereading, builds learning that lasts.

Dunlosky et al., 2013

Measure, then adjust

Frequent short check-ins, with set rules for when to change course, help children who struggle.
