Have you tried Prodigy yet? My students are completely OBSESSED with this math game!
A few tips:
- I like to save Prodigy as a trick up my sleeve for the spring time. I don't want my students to get burned out on it, and also they get a little silly about it... so I save it and introduce it right around state testing time. I assign test prep questions for them to answer and they are so excited about the new game that they don't realize they are practicing!
- Prodigy is a GREAT reward for completed work, good behavior, etc
- Be sure to send home the login information - this is a game your students will actually play at home!
