Prodigy Game
Today I presented an educational game called Prodigy to our class. While we will be using the program during school hours, students can play with the same character at home to supplement their practice!
Prodigy unlocks the power of game-based learning and is designed to be engaging for children. The application actively adapts to keep each child’s learning at his/her own pace, automatically identifies knowledge gaps and scaffolds them through difficult concepts. It is designed to ensure children master fundamental math skills, build fluency, understand complex word problems and develop deep conceptual understanding through the use of virtual manipulatives.
However, students must use Prodigy at school after they have completed their "must do" assignments. Today a few students, didn't have the opportunity to use the game, because they still have unfinished work.
Students are taking home their passwords for Prodigy and their Google Accounts today.
