There are plenty of opportunities to build lessons around the content. The student with whom I am working really looks forward to his lessons, as confirmed by his parent. He has built confidence and developed cross-curricular skills. I started with a month to decide whether to sign on for good and decided it is well worth the money.

Unable 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.

Easy to teach, fun to explore Your content makes teaching and creating lesson plans really easy across age groups. It is content that is engaging and that presumes competence.

Not teacher friendly Not teacher friendly. No way to tell if students have completed reading unless they complete the quiz and then recording the quiz is cumbersome. Also, lexile levels don't go very high - so it limits the reading level for students who are at or above their reading.

Integrates well with fifth grade curriculum! Three lexile levels enables us to use articles for guided reading. Alignment to NGSS standards enables me to integrate literacy and science. The units on U.S. history and Native Americans are excellent for our social studies! I teach fifth grade.
