2, 6, 18, ?
Show me how to think about it
What same step takes you from 2 to 6, then from 6 to 18?
Multiply by 3 each time: 2 × 3 = 6, 6 × 3 = 18, and 18 × 3 = 54.
A clear path from “I’m not sure” to “I can try.”

Which program should we start with?
CogAT focuses on verbal, quantitative, and nonverbal reasoning. Phase 2 Math develops mathematical problem solving; Phase 2 Reading builds comprehension and evidence skills. Choose the area your school asks for or the skill your child wants to build.
Does every school use all three?
No. Gifted and Talented screening varies by school. Check your school’s assessment names and requirements; these are separate practice programs, not required stages or a promise of placement.
Will I need to teach every lesson?
Hints, explanations, and guided skill practice help your child work independently. My Path gives them a next step, and saved progress helps you see how they are doing.
