What the week actually is

Half-day exists because a full day is genuinely too long for a lot of children, and because most families are trying to cover a specific window rather than the whole summer. The morning covers the same build; nothing is diluted.

Day by day

  1. Pick the problem and write the prediction
  2. First build, first failure
  3. Diagnose what actually went wrong
  4. Rebuild and test against the prediction
  5. Showcase: explain it to the room
