It’s now even easier for teachers to set and review engaging and adaptive math and English practice for students thanks to the new Prodigy add-on for Google Classroom.
Through this add-on, which can be installed from the Google Workspace Marketplace for schools and districts subscribed to Google’s Education Plus plan or Google’s Teaching & Learning Upgrade, standards-aligned Prodigy assignments can now be quickly created by teachers without leaving Google Classroom.
With this add-on, assignments are also presented to students as work to be completed within Google Classroom—making it even simpler to align Prodigy with what you’re teaching in class.
“We’re excited to collaborate with Google for Education on creating this new add-on which makes it easier than ever for teachers to set assignments and reinforce what’s being taught in class through Prodigy’s award-winning game-based learning platforms,” said Cara Yarzab, Director, Product Management at Prodigy. “Through this deeper integration with Google Classroom for Education Plus subscribers, we’ve made it even simpler for teachers to manage, measure, and enrich learning experiences for their students.”
Education Plus is Google’s most comprehensive solution for educators, providing advanced security and insights and easy-to-use tools that enrich and personalize learning.
Prodigy’s games, Prodigy Math and Prodigy English, are used by millions of teachers and students to practice math and English content which is fully aligned to regional curriculum standards. Teachers can easily align the in-game content to what’s being taught in class, while also being able to see how students are progressing, and where more help may be needed.
Prodigy is available at zero cost to educators, with all math and English educational content available for free, for everyone. This access is made possible thanks to optional parent memberships, which help families connect more closely with their child’s learning journey while providing students with extra gameplay features that can boost engagement. This model also means there is no third-party advertising on our platforms, and no selling or leasing of student data.
