Employ an inquiry-based approach


Project your chosen IXL skill in your classroom
and have students work together to answer the
first question. Then, walk through the explanation
as a class.

Note the key concepts in the Remember box,


and talk through each step to solve the problem.
Answer a few more questions as a class or in
small groups.

Cement learning with individual


practice
Have students work on your selected IXL skill
individually, either in class or for homework. Set a
SmartScore goal of 80 (proficiency), but encourage
students to strive for 100 if they feel ready.

3. Check for understanding

Skill Analysis
Visit the Skill Analysis report to check for
assignment completion and to gain insight
on your students’ understanding of the
lesson. This report gives you overall stats
on class performance and even groups your
students by the level of difficulty they are
working at within the skill.

Mouse over each student’s name for deeper


analysis of student progress. Keep an eye
out for students who have a trouble spot and
may need additional support or practice with
foundational skills.
