We just started it for kinder this year and it’s terrible. It’s so many steps to just answer one question and we’re basically having to sit 1:1 to make sure they know what to do to operate it correctly.

At my school parents can choose between several different programs. I have some kids that love IXL and I have some that hate it.

I like doing the diagnostic and then the students work on the recommendations. They enjoy it because when they finish them I give them dojo points. I like that now you can assign the games too

Middle school teacher 💗 It is VERY boring, when we had it, kids were required to complete 2 lessons per week, per class. It was exhausting to see them so focused/stressed each week. I tried to implement it as our bellwork and early finisher each day to hopefully minimize any work at home but gosh… it was exhausting. It is a great tool for repetitive practice and practice with digital tools similar to standardized test as well as exposure to similar wording and formatting of our standardized test… I don’t know… 😅

It hasn’t changed and kids do not love it. I think it’s a good tool to use as a class. It has some great examples but is not ideal for independent practice.

We had a meeting as parents today with the administration about how frustrating IXL is.. they set the SmartScore to 100% which make the kids cry. I think if you set it to 80, it will be a bit easier BUT there is zero teaching in IXL. Beast Academy is 100% much better and more fun and actually teach them. It has a very short video attached to each question where the child can watch and it explains it in a nice way.

We have it at school and we use it for diagnostic and some teachers use it all the time. I am not one. We have magma but I don’t know if it goes that low. I have used splash learn and it was free and it was very fun.

The worst!! The benchmark assessment was awful! It's boring and not really instructive, just quizzing them. I'm looking for something else, too!

I use it but I wish it was better at connecting concepts. In middle school it seems to be something new everyday.

My kid hated IXL but he is in a different county. Not sure if they have K but check out Delta Math. It’s horrible because miss question it takes them back down.

My ms kids also use IXL, many nights end in tears. Not a fan!! As a teacher I can see it being used as enrichment but as intervention, it makes the kids hate math more than they already do!
