Adaptive practice for homeschool families
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.
Try a mission with Blink, right here.

What kids learn
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
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
A few minutes, the same kinds of questions each week and no hints, so a rising line means real progress.
Once a weekNo hints
What to celebrate, what to watch, and a question only when your call matters.
Every eveningFor you
Counted one short? Swapped tens and ones? Kids see exactly what happened, then try again.
Choices wait until the question is heard, so fast guessing never wins.
Small cheers for effort, and the big ones for real milestones.
Missions track the lessons you’re teaching, so practice and teaching point the same way.
For parents
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.

Tonight’s note
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
Responsive one-on-one tutoring is among the most effective things education research has found.
Nickow, Oreopoulos & Quan, 2020
Practice spread over days, and recalling answers instead of rereading, builds learning that lasts.
Dunlosky et al., 2013
Frequent short check-ins, with set rules for when to change course, help children who struggle.
Jung et al., 2018
