I tried challenges with my students 2 weeks ago. I challenged them to get 40 minutes on Exact Path in Math that week. They enjoyed the chance to earn a unique badge.

I want to be able to create a data tracker for them that I can verify with a report. What suggestions does anyone have on a tracker for students?

I have tried to make assignments for my students to complete. I wish I could change the number of questions for them to complete. I also would like to be able to print their responses without the correct answer showing for them to be able to correct their work.

We have printed out the Trophy Trackers and the Mastered Skill tracker. My students are coloring in their trophies and I am putting stickers on a poster that correlate with their number of trophies. If they reach 25 trophies they will be invited to a Hot Cocoa party.

I would like to become more acquainted with using the knowledge map to assign my students specific assignments to help them with mastery of skills that they did not master or are struggling.

I have a couple of assignment for prevention loops on Fridays. Exact path has made it easy to implement a short lesson and a few questions!

I have used the Knowledge Map to make RTI groups based on similar skills that students are struggling with. I have pulled additional lessons and used worksheets to do progress monitoring. I plan to start assigning the specific lessons to them as well specifically for RTI time.

I am very impressed by the friendliness of this program. It is fairly easy to navigate to quickly find information pertinent to the student and student needs. Assigning lessons, videos is easy and helps keep track of the student's progress.

I like the extra videos, activities, and ideas in the resources. I especially like the extend activities for my higher kids to use during RTI when I am working with strugglers.

I created a challenge for my students to get 45 minutes on exact path each week. They have been motivated and excited to continue learning as they receive the challenge badges.

I make two different types of challenges for my class, one for time spent and one for trophies. This way everyone has a good chance to meet the challenge if they are high or low.

2024-11-14 15:59:43 UTC

I enjoy the challenges for my students as well. They love getting to color trophies and receive a sweet treat!
