I have to post something of my own choosing.
I am still amazed at how many teachers/parents do not know about this fantastic website!
This is me on the game! Most games are free for math, but you can also pay a monthly fee to get tons of really neat data tools and also reading/language games! My students are addicted (and me too). I usually allow kids to play this when they complete their other work, or we will have it as part of my Daily 5ish centers. I like to create lessons and choose which common core standards my students need to work on, and then watch their progress.
We usually have little competitions in my class too. Students earn coins with correct answers and then can spend it (when I open the store or after 3:30p). They also can move up to different animal levels, and I have a challenge that whoever can get past my animal level will earn a candy bar. The kids are constantly trying to beat me, and I even play them in games sometimes. I MIGHT even LET them win sometimes ;-)
There are lots of levels, I'm only on level 4.. I mean, I am a Harpy Eagle!!
The questions range from 1st grade to 8th grade and get pretty in depth on computation. The program is always adding more and more games/standards too so it has really grown in recent years.
I do not know much about their reading/language program as we do not have a subscription. :-(
A girl can dream though!
Go sign-up parents/teachers! It is easy and worth it! Let me know your thoughts on the program! And if you can beat my level, I owe you a candy bar ;-)
