Grades K–5
Daily Academy is being built for K–12 and covers kindergarten to grade 5 today, in four subjects: math, reading comprehension, critical thinking and science. Each page below sets out what that grade is expected to know across Canada, where children most often get stuck, and what the practice actually looks like.
186 activities and 784 questions, every one reviewed by a person before it reaches a child.
Daily Academy is being built for K–12 and covers kindergarten to grade 5 today. Rather than publish a page for every grade and fill most of them with promises, the whole arc lives on one page — what changes each school year from kindergarten to grade 12, and which grades have practice behind them so far.
See every grade, K–12“Grade 3 math” is not a thing a child either has or does not have. It is roughly ten separate skills that move at different speeds, and a single subject score averages them into a number that describes none of them. A child can be a year ahead on number sense and half a year behind on division, and land squarely in the middle of the class.
So Daily Academy estimates mastery for each of 77 skills separately, and difficulty follows each one on its own. That is also what makes the parent dashboard able to say something more useful than a percentage — including, often, that the trouble with math word problems is actually a reading problem.
Daily Academy is being built for K–12 and covers kindergarten to grade 5 today — roughly ages 4–11. A grade appears here only once the activity library holds enough content to serve a child in it, so a child well outside the covered grades will find it either too easy or too hard. The whole K–12 arc is mapped on the curriculum page.
Canada has no national curriculum — each province writes its own — and Daily Academy is skills-based rather than built to any one of them. It is not an approved provincial resource anywhere and does not claim to be. Its 77 tracked skills cover what every province expects in kindergarten to grade 5 for math and reading.
No. The full daily mission — all four subjects, the intake assessment and the adaptive difficulty — is free and stays free. The paid part is the parent dashboard, which is one family subscription covering every child in the home, with a 14-day trial before any card is needed.
A five-minute intake places your child on a continuous scale rather than in a year group. Nothing is compulsory, and the daily mission is free.
