The Month 1 Personal AI Guide
Your child writes (or dictates, and you type) their own guide to AI. Not AI's guide to AI β their guide. Based on what they have actually experienced.
AI provides the structure. Your child fills in every section β in their own words, from their own experience. This is a genuine synthesis exercise.
Test the guide β ask AI to review it:
Your child reads the feedback. They decide what to update. Final version is theirs.
π§© The Twist β 5 minutes
Read together. Ask: Do you agree? Is there something you understand about AI now that you think most adults do not? What is it? The answer is often surprisingly sophisticated after 24 sessions across all three programmes.
One third through the programme. A good moment to verify all five rules are still solid. Ask your child to write them down from memory. If they can β they have the habits. If any are forgotten β revisit that session before continuing.

βΌSynthesis and metacognition β creating a personal reference from experience rather than instruction. The guide produced today is genuinely theirs and genuinely useful.
- What was the most important thing you learned in Month 1?
- What is in your AI guide that surprised you when you wrote it down?
- What are you most curious about for Months 2 and 3?
The personal guide exercise is one of the best assessment tools in the programme. What children choose to include reveals what has actually landed for them.
Month 1 is a good natural break point. If the child needs time off before continuing β encourage them to keep the guide somewhere accessible. It should be a living document they return to.
