GBKids Discover is an amazing resource… Kids Discover is an amazing resource for my students to have access to. It offers a wide range of topics that will appeal to the interest of most any elementary and middle school student. I like that the quizzes are quick and offer instant feedback. Another great feature is students have the ability to adjust the reading level to best suit their needs. The pictures and interactive graphics only add the engagement.

GBTwo Stars and a Wish I like the social studies for the 6th grade level. We read the middle reading level. The photos are well done and page layouts are arranged nicely with the right vocabulary for my 11-year-old. Well done. I did observe that the upper grade levels for the history/social studies becomes too much of name and date information. I wish you could show the date items in a historical time line that would capture the kids interest more. I realize you are trying to cover certain curriculum rules. Anyway I am sure you will take this in and do something clever.

GBUnable to assign anything. I was able to assign one time. Now I can't assign anything to my classroom and I have no idea how to view submitted quizzes or create assignments. I went to the FAQ and it says there should be all these features that I don't have. I appear to have a student view instead of an educator. At this point I am wanting my money back.

GBGreat source for science and social studies We have used KidsDiscover for many years. First we used the magazine and then the online version. With the time period our 6th grade has for science and ss, it is difficult to go over all of the textbook. The length of the articles are perfect to read and discuss during our time. They are interesting and hit most of the main points we are aiming for. It is also nice to have students take the short quiz for comprehension. Customer service is also wonderful!
