Community reviews for IXL - Math and English

I love this tool to see the child's engagement and have a quick tool to see how well they have mastered the concept. It is also very easy to place the children on their individual level.

I really like this product. I think that this year I will use IXL on the Smartboard and teach the lesson as a whole group.

I really think that this is a great tool to help differentiate in the classroom. I like how the students can earn rewards and that keeps them engaged. Students also enjoy the rating at the top that shows how well they are doing. They LOVE to show me when they earn medals. I would like to be able to "push" or "assign" specific standards to students. This could be done ahead of time and I would know students were working on the things that I want them working on. On occasion, I have students that stray away from the things I have asked them to work on and being able to assign standards would help with that. I also like that this tool can be used at home because it is based on log in information. I have been able to have students work on this at home on snow days as well as during the summer! This helps keep students learning even when they are not "in" my classroom!

I really like this product as a tool to help all of my students. It has the capability of starting out at a low level and progressing with the student as they gain confidence and master the concepts that they worked on.

This is a fairly good site/app for students to get reinforcement on concepts previously taught. This is a great site/app for students to use at home with parents.

I love the IXL website. Students work at different grade levels.

It is a great teaching tool to help reinforce taught concepts. It is expensive to purchase for a classroom/school. I like that it really focuses deeply on one concept to make sure students understand it. I also like that you can individualize it based on the needs of the students. Every child can have a different lesson or even a different grade level if necessary. It can serve students by creating depth of knowledge on a specific topic.

My students enjoy this site. They ask to get on it each day.

It is very time consuming on the teacher's part with putting info in to get the program up and running. I like getting the updates on my phone on the progress of my students. I don't have to do all the planning at school. I am able to access it from my phone, my iPad, or my computer from home. It's just the time that is involved and the money I spend to get my students to keep going, but I would do whatever it takes to make them successful. :)

I like this, but not as a teaching tool. I like this as a practice tool and independent practice. It does help students because it gives them immediate feedback.
