From Textbooks to Chromebooks 14- Prodigygame.com

My 6th-grade students loved playing Prodigy last year to work on math skills.  The students create an avatar and then through quests and battles their character starts to level up.   The game has a Pokemon feel to it as the characters that the students capture will evolve as they get stronger.   Here is a screen shot from the initial tutorial that students will see about wizard battles:

You will also be able to keep track of how students are doing on specific standards as they play the game.  The reports that are provided are very helpful.  There are four options for reports as seen in the image below:

There are also three options for game play:  1)  students can be given specific assignments with up to 25 questions per assignment, 2)  teachers can use the planner to assign a standard for as long as you would like the students to practice that skill;  3)  you can just let students play and the game will progress the students through the skills as they master them.  In this option you will also be given  diagnostic results which will provide you with a grade level equivalency.  To use this last option you do not have to do anything.  The students would just enter your class code and start playing.

After the teacher has created an account you will receive a class code.  Students will be able to sign up in these 3 easy steps.

Finally,  it should be noted that parents may link their email to their child's prodigy account and they will then receive updates on how their child is doing on the standards.
