Six dimensions of wonder, measured against one child: herself.
The Index never ranks a child against classmates or a national average. It answers one question — is she growing?

Growth, not ranking
Every bar compares her to her own past self.
Hover or tap a bar for the story behind it.
Wonder
72How often she asks questions no one asked her to ask. Up from 58 six months ago — her own baseline only.
Courage
64Willingness to try something that might not work. Up from 61 six months ago — her own baseline only.
Making
80Turning ideas into something that exists. Up from 66 six months ago — her own baseline only.
Empathy
55Noticing how a choice affects someone else. Up from 50 six months ago — her own baseline only.
Persistence
68Returning to something after it breaks or fails. Up from 45 six months ago — her own baseline only.
Sharing
47Showing finished work to someone else. Up from 40 six months ago — her own baseline only.
Never a leaderboard.
No percentile, no class rank, no comparison to any other child. Just one private question: is she more curious, brave, and persistent than last season?
Persistence was the number that surprised us. Turns out all those broken bridges were building something else.
