The Atlas

The Atlas is a library of ready-made decks the aitutors.me team has written from the UK curriculum map. It holds more than 500 decks and 7,000 cards. Your child opens it from My Flashcards → Explore the Atlas.

What is in it

• Key Stage 3 (Years 7–9) — Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, English, History and Geography. There are decks for each year and for each strand, and every Year 7, 8 and 9 topic on the KS3 map has at least three cards.
• GCSE (Years 10–11) — all six courses on the GCSE map have decks: Maths, Combined Science (Biology, Chemistry and Physics), English Language, English Literature, Geography and History.
• 11+ reasoning — Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning decks that teach the method. See the 11+.
• Competitions — a toolkit deck for each competition family, and a deck for each past paper of the Junior and Intermediate Maths Challenges. See UK academic competitions.

The GCSE decks follow the AQA specifications

They were written against the AQA specifications. AQA has not reviewed or approved them. If your child's school uses another exam board, most of the content still applies, but the set texts and studies may differ.

Finding a deck

The Atlas has two shelves, Years 7–9 and GCSE. It opens on the one that fits your child's year: a child in Year 10 or above starts on GCSE, everyone else on Years 7–9. Either shelf is one tap away, and nothing is locked by year.

From there your child can search, filter by subject, and narrow to one year group.

What your child can do with a deck

• Preview it. Tapping a deck's title opens its cards one at a time. Looking commits your child to nothing.
• Adopt it. Adopt all copies the deck into their own collection. Where a deck spans more than one year or tier, a small menu offers just their year's cards, or just the Foundation cards.
• Adopt one card. Inside the preview, each card has its own Adopt this card button.
• Study it live. Study with Professor … opens a session with the professor who teaches that subject, starting from that deck or that card.

An adopted deck arrives gradually: ten cards are due the first day, ten more the next, and so on. A single adopted card is due straight away.

Adopted cards are copies. When we add new cards to a deck your child has already adopted, tapping In your sky ✓ checks for them and offers to add the new ones.

GCSE: "What does your school teach?"

At GCSE, schools choose some of what they teach: which Shakespeare play, which novel, which period of history. A child in Year 10 or 11 sees a small Your GCSE panel at the top of the GCSE shelf, with two things to set:

• Tier — Foundation or Higher, for Maths and for Science.
• What does your school teach? — your child taps the texts, studies and options their school teaches.

The Atlas then puts those decks first and marks them "your school". Decks for texts the school does not teach move under Other schools' options, and Higher-only decks are set apart for a child on Foundation. Nothing is hidden: your child can still open and adopt any deck.

Not sure? Leave it blank. It can be changed at any time, and each tap saves straight away.

The panel only offers choices that have decks today:

Subject	Texts and studies with decks
English Literature	Macbeth · Romeo and Juliet · A Christmas Carol · Jekyll and Hyde · An Inspector Calls · Lord of the Flies · Animal Farm · the Power and Conflict poems · the Love and Relationships poems
History	Germany 1890–1945 · America 1920–1973 · the inter-war years · East and West (Cold War) · Health and the people · Power and the people · Elizabethan England · Norman England
Geography	every option on the map

The other English Literature texts and History studies are on the GCSE map but do not have decks yet. More are being written.

Cards on modern texts that are still in copyright, such as An Inspector Calls, describe the text in our own words and do not quote it.

Try it without an account

The whole Atlas is public at aitutors.me/flashcards. Anyone can open a deck and play its cards, free, with no account.

• Progress there stays on that device. It is not a real review schedule, and nothing comes back on its own.
• Claim these cards. Under each public deck is a button to keep it. A visitor is taken to set up an account, and the deck is added to the child's collection the first time they sign in on that device. A signed-in child gets Add to my sky, and a signed-in parent gets Add to a child's sky.
• Your Atlas is a small anonymous game around the public decks, with an animal explorer and a public board. It is separate from your child's account and their own Sky.
