How Prodigy Math Game helped
What teachers and school leaders at Clifton Public Schools are saying about Prodigy
“I feel like as an educator, we know we have something students love and want to do. We always have something that we can send to them... Prodigy is a great tool we always have in our back pocket to use that the kids love.”
“Teachers love that students love using Prodigy. When elementary students have fun learning, they don’t necessarily recognize they are doing school work.”
“For us, Prodigy translates to a love of math. We’re using it because it’s adaptive, and they’re working at their level in their zone of proximal development... I love how if you get a question wrong, it walks you through step-by-step how to solve the problem.”
