IXL

We’re pleased to announce we will be using a website called IXL at our school this year. IXL is a comprehensive math review site with an unlimited number of practice questions in hundreds of skills—all of which are aligned to the Utah Core Standards. One of the best things about IXL is that your child can access it from home, so you have a chance to see your child’s progress.

The Armstrong students are able to access their IXL accounts from their iPads while at school. However, to get your child started on your home computer, watch for individual username and password information to come home in the near future.

In addition to making math practice exciting, IXL is designed to help your child learn at his or her own pace. The website is adaptive and will adjust to your child’s demonstrated ability level. The site also saves all of your child’s results, so you can monitor your child’s progress anytime by clicking on the Reports.

We hope you’ll encourage your student to use IXL at home. It should be a great tool to engage your student on the skills he or she needs most. And, it’s fun!
