IXL:
IXL is a wonderful program that Valley is providing for all of our students. Your child has taken a preliminary test to determine where they are in regard to a wide range of skills. On your child’s Recommendation Wall are skills where your child had some gaps in learning. The 6th grade teachers encourage all students to log into IXL and complete practice problems throughout the week. 30-60 minutes a week is recommended at this time. Please follow the directions below:
Sign into IXL.
Click on the “Learning” Tab.
Click on “Recommendation Wall.”
Towards the top right you will see a star symbol. It will say “suggestions from your teachers.” Click on this.
You can now work on ELA questions suggested by Miss Gross, or Math questions suggested by Mrs. Copper.
On the Recommendation Wall are skills the IXL program has personally selected for your child based on their preliminary assessment that they need to work on as well.
IXL encourages students to work on 6th grade skills twice a week and Recommended Skills twice a week.
