Ms. Tighe reminds students that it’s okay if they don’t know answers yet, because they are going to learn a lot throughout the lessons in this Spaceship Earth unit to help them explain the phenomenon and they'll have an opportunity to change or add to their first model.

The Projected Growth Report helps teachers predict each student’s proficiency level at the end of the school year, based on initial assessment data, program use, and ongoing performance.  

With the Real-Time Activity Dashboard, teachers can see what each of their students is working on and how far they have progressed each week. 

The Overview page allows educators to view data at the class or student level.  

Students can access immediate feedback about where they are on the learning journey, including scores for lessons, awards received, and goal-setting tools.

No matter where a student is on their math journey, DreamBox Math provides personalized, adaptive instruction and support to get each student where they need to be. 

Personalize Instruction for Every Student   

"Discovery Education helps bring excellence.  The curated content helps teachers differentiate, engage, and motivate our students to learn and soar.  Studio, instructional strategies, writing prompts, fundamentals, eBooks, and text all make finding suitable content easy." 

Today, she has the whole class begin a unit on stars and the solar system with an Anchor Layer lesson. The Anchor Phenomenon introduces students to a mysterious real-world occurrence, in this case, star trails, and asks them to develop an explanation for it before any instruction takes place. It encourages them to think like scientists, wonder why, and inspires them to explore new areas.  

Educators have limited time to learn new programs, plan lessons, and take care of operational tasks for instruction. Discovery Education’s Experience provides access to hundreds of Need to Know lessons that combine standards-aligned videos and grab-and-go activities to plan high-quality lessons fast.   

Before, during, and after the Virtual Field Trip, educators can pull Ready-to-Use Resources from Discovery Education’s platform to build their knowledge about polar bears and the tundra ecosystem. These resources include hands-on activities, student response sheets, engaging projects, quizzes, and more.  

The content in STEM Careers Coalition allows students to learn about people who are using the same skills they are learning about in class to become problem solvers that make a difference in future communities.     

Educators can easily navigate to student reports from their dashboards. In the skills report, teachers can quickly determine which students are mastering concepts, and which students need more support.    
 

As students collect rewards, they can choose when to play in the Reading Park Arcade, as well as what to play in the arcade.

When a student completes a lesson, they earn a token, a Monster Friend card, or a sticker. When a student completes a Quest, they earn a Squiggle Page for their Squiggle Book. These rewards empower students to celebrate success, take pride in accomplishments, and motivate them to persevere.  Mateo’s backpack contains tokens that can be exchanged to play games in the Reading Park Arcade. 

Students can openly explore different areas of Reading Park and select the lessons they’d like to work through first. This agency allows each student to self-direct their learning experience.  

Reading Plus provides students with information about how their lesson went and provides educators a complete view of instructional growth per student and across the entire class, including real-time views of what students are working on and projected growth data.     

When students log in to Reading Plus, they can see their personalized dashboard where they can track their own goals and progress over time. This visibility motivates students and shows them that they have ownership over their learning. 

As this student uses DreamBox Math, the adaptive software captures information on all their learning behavior, from how long it takes for him to answer a question to why they may have missed a question. 

Every lesson is designed to maximize each student's ability to practice and master foundational reading skills. This includes multiple interactive formats that systematically allow students to learn and practice a robust standards-based scope and sequence.

The Squiggle Book is a magic book that teaches friendly monsters in Reading Park how to read. 

It's up to each student to find the pages by completing Quests. This engagement tool also serves as a companion guide for students. During their journey, students can look at the concepts from completed Quests within their Squiggle Book at any time.
