For Educators
Strength-first learning for your classroom. We're building story worlds that celebrate the cognitive superpowers kids already have.
We are prototyping. These worlds are in active development. We're sharing early so you can see where we're headed—and possibly help shape what comes next.
The Four Cognitive Strengths We're Elevating
These aren't remediation targets—they're superpowers to celebrate and activate. Here's what we mean in friendly, classroom-ready language:
Big-Picture Synthesis
What it is: Connecting clues and seeing "how it all fits." Kids who love finding patterns, making connections across stories, or asking "but why does that happen?" It's all about connecting the clues to see 'how they all fit'.
In the classroom: These are your students who remember details from three weeks ago and connect them to today's lesson. They thrive when you help them see the bigger picture.
Narrative Imagination
What it is: Storytelling, empathy, and world-building. Kids who create elaborate pretend scenarios, remember character motivations, or ask "what happens next?"
In the classroom: These are your natural storytellers who bring characters to life and understand why people do what they do. They shine when given space to create through imagination.
Dynamic Reasoning
What it is: Dynamic Reasoning is all about understanding cause and effect over time, and feeling comfortable with change. Kids who predict what will happen, understand consequences, or adapt quickly to new situations.
In the classroom: These are your "if-then" thinkers who understand how actions lead to outcomes. They thrive when you help them see how things unfold over time.
Material/Spatial Reasoning
What it is: Tinkering instincts, mental rotation and building. For kids who love taking things apart, figuring out how things work, or building with blocks and crafts, this is where they'll shine.
In the classroom: These are your hands-on learners who understand through doing. They excel when given materials to manipulate and problems to solve physically.
