Puente
He arrived happy and had a good breakfast. At 9 we went to music and he loved it. At long break the noise upset him and he put on his headphones. He ate lunch on his own with a spoon. When we left he said goodbye to his classmates without being asked.
Step 1 · the teacher

She dictates how the day went.
Two minutes, on her phone.

  • She talks the way she would to a colleague.
  • No forms, no checkboxes.
  • The teacher view is protected.
Step 2 · Puente

It turns her account into the child's day, in pictograms

He arrived happy and had a good breakfast. We went to music. At break the noise upset him. He ate lunch on his own. He said goodbye to his classmates.

Green: went well · Orange: a bit hard · Red: difficult. It also leaves a tidy record for the student's file.

Step 3 · the student

Juan sees his day and can tell it

Which day is hardest for him?
Mondays, at long break. On the 12th, 19th and 26th the playground noise upset him and he calmed down with his headphones. At home you can practise with the "help" pictogram.
Should I give him ibuprofen?
That is a question for his pediatrician. I can only tell you what the school recorded.
Step 4 · the family

A private space,
no app to install

  • They see the child's days in pictograms and how the child felt.
  • They see which goals the child is making progress on.
  • They can ask Puente questions anytime, and answers are based only on what the school recorded.
  • It never diagnoses or gives medical advice.
Step 5 · the progress assistant

Sample data, made up.

Mondays are his hard day (3 out of 3), always at long break.

Eating independently Almost there
Greeting classmates Almost there
Getting through break Steady
Asking for help with pictograms Needs work

It suggests strategies with their sources and builds the visual schedule for next Monday, with new supports: the break-time story and headphones before going out. The teacher decides.

Handled with care

This is children's data. Here is how we treat it.

PrivateEach family only sees their own child. The teacher view requires sign-in. Internal notes never leave the school.
No diagnosesPuente describes what happened and what works. It does not label, it does not prescribe, and it does not replace any professional.
The teacher decidesThe assistant suggests and shows where each suggestion comes from. Nothing reaches the family without going through her.
Low costIt uses inexpensive AI models with a free fallback: the cost per student is a few cents a month.
