Short sprints. Different kinds of thinking.
Each Original asks for repeated decisions in a short space of time. The child has to notice, test or rule something out as the sprint moves.
Each Original packs repeated decisions into a short sprint.
Animal Detective, Tone Detector, Codebreaker and Information Hunter each create a different kind of pressure in a few focused minutes.
For the child
A quick challenge with clear actions and feedback.
For the adult
A result tied to the thinking area the sprint was testing.
Tone DetectorPitch patterns
Listen to four tones. Then enter the pattern using Low, Medium and High.

Play the tones first, then build the four-part pattern.
CodebreakerCode logic
Which three-digit code fits every clue?
481Exactly one digit is in the code, and it is in the right place.
246Exactly two digits are in the code, both in the wrong places.
729Exactly two digits are in the code: one is in the right place and one is not.
Use all three clues before choosing a code.
Information HunterFinding what matters
Maya leaves home at 16:20. Her train leaves at 16:40. What else do you need to know to work out if she reaches the station in time?
Choose the fact that would let you answer the question.
What Originals practises.
Each sprint has a clear thinking job and is designed to give useful feedback quickly.
Animal Detective
Ask questions that remove possibilities.
Tone Detector
Listen and identify a pattern of low, medium and high tones.
Codebreaker

During the sprint
Make a choice, see what changes, then try again.
ADULT
After the sprint
See the thinking area and whether it needs another look.
