Topics
Tick what has been covered in class. Only ticked topics go into the daily set — everything else stays out of the way until you switch it on.
Year 4 topics are ticked by default and are meant to stay on: they are the grounding Year 5 work builds on, and leaving them in the mix is how a gap gets found. Practice zones ignore these switches — choosing a zone is already a deliberate choice.
