Meet Jane · Step 4

What Jane's instructor sees. What Jane sees. How they connect in real time.

Every lesson runs the same way: the instructor sees the scripted plan and live class data; each student sees their own interactive lesson with immediate feedback. Both views stay in sync so the instructor knows exactly when to reteach.

Toggle instructor ↔ student to see how the two views connect
01 · What the instructor sees
Scripted plan + live class data
I Do → We Do → You Do, timing built in. Live grid shows which student needs reteach.
02 · What Jane sees
Her own interactive lesson
Teaching slides with audio, formative activities with immediate feedback, lesson-aligned games.
03 · How they connect
Two views, one lesson
Jane's answers stream into the instructor's live grid. Wrong answer? The instructor sees it and reteaches on the spot.

I Do:"Watch as I pair up 6 counters — 2, 2, 2. Every counter has a partner, no leftovers → the number is EVEN. Now 7: 2, 2, 2… and 1 left alone → ODD." Then: "Skip count by 2s — 2, 4, 6, 8… these are all even!"
We Do:"Is 23 even or odd? Ones digit is 3 → odd. Now skip count by 2s from 42: 44, 46, 48, 50 — all even."
You Do:Is 56 even or odd? · 78, 80, 82, ___ · Is 1000 even or odd? ✏ launch activity
