Moby Max, Lexia, and Utahcompose
Hello!
We have a free month trial with Moby Max that should last until March 6th for full access. After that they can still log in with limited access. The students can log in with their lexia ID as the username and the password is their initials. This is a great tool to use at home. It helps fill in learning gaps. We've been using it for math at school. It is a lot like "Lexia" but for math. There are also fun learning games on there as well. They can go to the google classroom and click on my Moby Max link www.mobymax.com/ut1124 to sign in.
Please give it a try! We took a placement test and lots of students were placed around the 4th grade level because they had so many gaps they needed to review. Some placed in 6th or 7th. It teaches concepts through 8th grade level.
Also, if your student has not passed off Lexia yet I strongly encourage you to have them work on it at home. We only have chromes for a few hours each week and we have to devote a lot of that time to essay writing, nearpods, or other technology acitivities.
If your student is behind or getting low scores on essays, have them log into utahcompose.com at home. They should all know their logins and passwords. They can catch up at home and also practice writing with other given prompts.
Thank you!
