Announcing a New Way to Give Math Practice: SparkMath
Pear Assessment
Announcing SparkMath!
Edulastic is proud to announce a great new math practice program: SparkMath. SparkMath features more than 1,250 pre-built assignments that mirror state tests and contain technology enhanced items as well as DOK levels 1 through 3. It provides you with curriculum-aligned differentiated math practice, arranged in modules, to give to students. Gone are the days when you have to scramble to develop or find high-quality math content. Now, if you are in charge of math instruction for students anywhere from kindergarten through precalculus, you have SparkMath to lean on.
Have you ever wondered what to do with your students once you get their formative assessment results back? No need to scratch your head on that thought any more. Once students complete their work, SparkMath helps you decide what to do next. The program’s technology suggests review work, practice work, or challenge work based on student results.
While you might find some programs that come as-is, SparkMath is different. You can work with the assessments already in the program, or you can add your own assessments and content. As the instructor, you are always in control– you make the ultimate decision on what students complete next.
Here’s how it works:
Log into your Edulastic account and click on the SparkMath tab on your left-side menu. From there you can locate the modules for your grade level. The modules come in playlists that contain topic quizzes and end-of-unit assessments for each curriculum module. When you assign students the module work, you’ll have the ability to establish your desired test settings and then you’ll assign the assessments to students.
As students complete their math practice, SparkMath gives you a window into each student’s mastery of standards and provides recommendations for review, practice, or challenge work for each student. As the instructor, you can choose the recommendations or customize the next steps as you’d like! You can even set up additional learning resources in the form of documents or links to support the growth of student understanding.
