Mrs. Needels' class mainly uses MobyMax to learn and practice grammar skills. The students are motivated by earning badges, game time and school rewards.
Schoolnet is a website provided by ACPS. The students take district, school and teacher-made tests. Teachers can access the students' scores and analyze the data to improve teaching and learning. After the students take the assessments, the teacher reviews each question with the class to practice test-taking skills and to reteach certain skills.
