● Guides for parents

# Four short films, a minute or less each

Each film is the real game on a phone, in the island's own voice, with the steps written under it. Children learn the game inside it: the first time they play, a short guide walks them through it. Every name and tag in the films is an example.

## Add Explorisle to the phone

1. Open explorisle dot asurekha dot com on the phone or tablet your child plays on.
2. Tap Install Explorisle. The steps for your device show on the screen.
3. Once it is on the home screen, open it from there. It fills the whole screen, and it works without a signal.

## Keep the tag safe

1. Every child has a tag: seven letters and numbers. It brings the island back on any phone or tablet.
2. You find it in the passport, in the menu.
3. And on the card at the end of every session.
4. Write it down, or take a photo. Nothing else is needed: no account, and no email.

## The parents screen

1. On the first screen, tap For parents.
2. You see the week at a glance: how many sessions, what turned quick, and one question to ask at dinner.
3. Below it are the facts your child finds hardest, and the level and tables, which you can change.

## Choose the spelling list

1. On the parents screen, find Spelling.
2. It starts on your child's year. Pick a phonics phase or another year's list if that fits better.
3. In a class, the teacher's list comes first.

**Not on the island yet:** an account of any kind. There is none, and that is on purpose.
