## Controls

- Age 6-7: Concrete objects, shorter prompts, larger touch targets.
- Age 8-9: Representations, tables, and multi-step choices.
- Age 10-11: Symbols, proof language, rates, and challenge presentation.
- Emerging: Starts with support and repair checks until fresh independent evidence appears.
- On-track: Starts on the core route and advances when recent independent work holds.
- Advanced: Starts with transfer and opens challenge only where a challenge anchor exists.
- Balanced: Keeps story fit and evidence as the main drivers.
- Facts: Softly favors facts, arrays, equal groups, and calm fluency when compatible.
- Fractions: Softly favors shares, parts, equivalence, benchmarks, and fraction repair.
- Word problems: Softly favors model choice, bar models, operation choice, and reasonableness.
- Geometry: Softly favors shape, measure, tools, paths, and spatial work.
- Mixed review: Softly favors skill checks and fresh review without child-facing test labels.
- Weak spots: Softly favors diagnostic and repair choices once evidence points to a need.
