All Middle School students have been given access to DreamBox. Students should access DreamBox by first logging in to Clever using their school google account. Go to Mrs. Acord's Clever Page. Click on the DreamBox app. Students will automatically be in their personal DreamBox account.
Please note: DreamBox is a game based math program that adjusts material based on use. Recommended use is 20 minute sessions, with 60 minutes completed each week. As the program adjusts to the student over time the data will become more accurate.
