Lexia and Dreambox
If you are interested in working on more academic skills and content with your child at home, Lexia and Dreambox are perfect if you have internet access.
Dreambox and Lexia are an easy way for your child to practice at home at their individual skill level! Research shows that students show academic progress in math and literacy skills and are prepared for first grade with the use of Lexia and Dreambox.
Our students’ goal is to use Dreambox and Lexia a minimum of 40 minutes per week. That is only 8 minutes per night!
Please be sure your child is completing the activities on their own. It is very important that we receive accurate information so that we know how to help your child in the classroom.
If you need your child’s Log In and Password or access information
OR
need the internet address or application please let us know. We will send it home in your child’s T.I.G.E.R. Folder
