Description
I use KhanAcademy.org (FREE!) with my students for a weekly homework grade. They create usernames and passwords at the beginning of the year and sync to my teacher account when joining.
Students are given Monday-Sunday to complete x-amount of minutes in their grade-level (or differentiated pathway). I can assign content that we are working on in class or, they can work through grade-level content at their own pace.
1.) Khan Academy gives me immediate feedback and data around student understanding and I am quickly able to identify struggling students in particular topics
2.) Khan Academy provides embedded supports (videos, articles) for students, so they are reliant on a teacher or parent to complete work outside of the classroom
3.) It gives students an experience with a resource that will be available to them through college-level topics (and beyond) so they can literally learn anything they want, on their own time.
This bundle includes: The parent/student expectations for homework, posters for your classroom and a step-by-step tutorial of how to access student weekly-time completion. If you are in a 1 to 1, this also is a great resource for differentiation and centers!
