GAMIFIED LEARNING, K-6 • Sticker book — every mastered topic earns a sticker, peeled with a satisfying reveal animation. The wall fills up over weeks; kids come back to see their collection grow. • Daily quests — three short goals per session that finish in 10 minutes. Bonus stars when you complete all three of the day, with a confetti splash. • Stars + power-ups — earned from practice, spent in the in-app Goji Shop on Hint, Skip, or 2× Boost.
