TCAP Mastery Lab turns test prep into a streak your kid actually wants to keep. Every day they get 10 questions right, written fresh by AI around the things they love, and you see exactly where they stand and what to practice next.
Kids don't need another hour of homework. They need a short, winnable goal that repeats. Ours is simple: ten correct answers a day. Not ten attempted. Ten right.
Ten right answers takes about ten focused minutes. Hit the goal, grow the streak. Miss a question and nothing is lost: only correct answers count, and the difficulty quietly adjusts so the goal stays reachable, just never free.
A 60-second "what do you love?" quiz kicks things off. From then on, a dinosaur kid multiplies fossils and a soccer kid compares fractions of penalty kicks. About half the questions stay in plain TCAP wording on purpose, so the real test feels familiar too.
Your dashboard shows the streak, accuracy by topic across Tennessee's 3rd and 4th grade standards, and exactly which skills to focus on next. No more "How was school?" "Fine."
A sample question from a dinosaur kid's practice (go ahead, answer it) and the dashboard their parent checks.
Take the 10-question readiness check below. The AI writes each question live for your child. You'll see their results and a sample of your parent dashboard before creating anything.
Two minutes, free, no card. You sign up as the parent and add your child; kids never have passwords of their own. Sign up here whenever you're ready.
A 60-second "what do you love?" quiz personalizes their tutor. Then they get their first ten right answers, and the streak begins: day one, done.
Strengths, weak spots, topic-by-topic mastery, and specific recommendations for your child. You'll always know the answer to "are they ready?"
Daily streaks, all topics in math, ELA and science, hints, explanations, and the full parent dashboard. Paid plans come later; early families get everything free while we grow, and they'll get the best deal when pricing arrives.

TCAP begins in 3rd grade, the first year Tennessee measures your child against state standards, and under state law the 3rd grade ELA score helps decide promotion to 4th grade. 4th grade is where the compounding starts: multi-digit multiplication, fractions, reading stamina, writing structure. These two years set the baseline teachers use heading toward middle school.
of Tennessee 3rd graders scored below or approaching the promotion bar on 2025-26 ELA. More than half of families face the retention-law maze: summer camp, tutoring, retakes, or appeals.
of 3rd graders met or exceeded expectations in math statewide. In 4th grade it was 49.4%. Daily practice is how kids move up a level.
TCAP 2027 main testing begins April 19 (the writing window opens April 7). Ten right answers a day between now and then is a very different April.

"Hi! I'm Alex B., a Nashville parent. I built this for my son Miles and my daughter Caroline. We tried worksheets and we priced out tutors, but what finally stuck was embarrassingly simple: ten right answers a day, every day, about stuff they actually like. They started racing to keep their streaks alive, and for the first time I knew exactly which skills each of them needed next. It worked so well at our kitchen table that I want to share it with the community. Your kid gets the same tutor mine use."

Ten correct answers a day is roughly 250 verified skills practiced between now and TCAP if you start in the fall, with difficulty rising as your child improves. Short daily practice with feedback beats occasional cram sessions, and because the goal is winnable, kids actually keep doing it. That last part is the whole game. If your kid has ever protected a Duolingo streak, you know the effect.
Because seat time is easy to fake and skill isn't. A timer rewards staring at a screen; our daily goal rewards focus: every point of progress is a question your child actually got right. Miss a couple in a row and the next question quietly gets more approachable, so kids always move forward, just never for free. Wrong answers never subtract; each one comes with a short explanation that teaches the idea for next time.
It's about ten focused minutes with a built-in finish line, closer to a workbook that talks back than to YouTube. When the ten are done, the app celebrates and stops asking. The skills transfer to paper just fine: what TCAP measures is whether your child can round, multiply, and find the main idea, and that's exactly what the daily ten practices, in the same question formats the test uses.
Questions are generated against Tennessee's published grade-level standards, automatically format-checked, and every answer key is verified by an independent AI solver before your child sees it. Hints nudge thinking without handing over answers. There is no open chat, and you see the results yourself on the dashboard.
Yes: both 3rd and 4th grade, each with its own Tennessee-standards curriculum in math, ELA, and science. Each child gets their own profile, streak, and progress tracking. Siblings welcome; Miles and Caroline insisted.
Yes, that's exactly how it's built. You create one family account and add each child to it. Every kid gets their own emoji, their own streak, their own questions built around their own favorites, and their own progress. When it's practice time they just tap their name, no passwords for kids, ever. Your dashboard shows each child separately, so you always know how each one is doing. This is how Miles and Caroline share the house account without sharing a streak.
Every question adjusts to your child's recent accuracy: approachable confidence-builders when they're struggling, genuinely challenging problems when they're on a roll. Mastery is measured on recent work (90% on the last ten in a topic), so one rough day never buries them.
Since 2023, Tennessee law says a 3rd grader who scores "Below" or "Approaching" on the ELA portion of TCAP can't simply move to 4th grade. Families instead navigate pathways: summer learning camp, a year of tutoring in 4th grade, a retake, or an appeal. In 2025-26, 55.2% of Tennessee 3rd graders scored in that range. And it follows kids into 4th grade: students promoted on the tutoring pathway must show adequate growth on the 4th grade ELA TCAP. None of this is meant to scare you; it's why a daily reading habit matters more in Tennessee than almost anywhere. The state's official guide is here.
TCAP reports four performance levels: Below Expectations, Approaching, Met, and Exceeded. "Met Expectations" is the bar that keeps 3rd graders clear of the retention law. Testing runs April 7-14, 2027 for writing and April 19 through early May for everything else; score reports land in the state's online Family Portal in mid-to-late July. Our dashboard uses the same topic language as Tennessee's standards, so nothing on the official report will read like a surprise.
Nothing right now. Everything is free during early access while we grow with our first Tennessee families. Paid plans come later, early-access families will hear about them first, and they'll get the best deal we ever offer.
No. It's deliberate daily practice and confidence-building that complements the classroom. Think of it as the practice habit between everything else your child's teachers do.
Real TCAP-style questions, written fresh by the AI the moment you press start, at your child's grade level. Then a sample of your parent dashboard, with recommendations for your child.
