I built this so Haley could launch into 3rd grade with confidence.
A self-paced, gamified Math & Reading course for kids heading into 3rd grade, aligned to the Mississippi College and Career Readiness Standards, designed to run on a parent's phone, no grown-up hovering required.
No credit card. No kid email needed. Just a parent login and a 4-digit code for your cadet.
Why I built this
Every mission, every badge, every quiz question was made with one kid in mind first.
A few minutes about Haley, summer learning, and why we built this together.
This summer, I wanted to give my granddaughter Haley something better than a stack of workbooks. She's heading into 3rd grade, and I wanted her to walk in on day one feeling ready, not because she crammed, but because she'd actually had fun getting there.
So I built her a course. Real Mississippi 3rd grade standards for Math and Reading, turned into missions on a little rocket ship, with badges and stars along the way. She picks it up on her mom's phone whenever she wants, with no login trouble and no waiting on me to sit down with her every time.
It worked so well for Haley that I wanted other families to have it too. Every mission is still standards-aligned underneath the fun. That part never changed. I hope it helps your cadet the way it's helped mine.
How Haley's Launchpad works
Real 3rd grade standards, wrapped in a space adventure a kid actually wants to open.
40 missions, 2 galaxies
Every Grade 3 math standard plus a full reading unit on character & story, split into ~20-minute, Pomodoro-sized missions.
Mastery gating
Kids score 80%+ on a mission's quiz to unlock the next one, so there's no skipping ahead before a skill sticks, and unlimited retakes with zero shame.
Real gamification
XP, ranks, daily streaks, and collectible badges layered right on top of the standards. Not a separate "game mode." The learning itself is the game.
Every screen read aloud
Built for a kid working solo, with narration on every lesson and quiz question so reading level is never the bottleneck.
A dashboard for you
See progress, streaks, and stars at a glance, and read your cadet's writing, all behind a simple grown-ups gate so it stays their space.
Kid-safe login
One parent email account, then each cadet gets a picture avatar and a 4-digit code. No email address needed for your child.
Not just a game. The real standards.
Every mission is built from official Mississippi Department of Education Grade 3 curriculum.
