There’s something about the program that really inspires them to try harder – so my entire class, with no exception, loves math now. Parents of my students are very impressed with the interest and love for math their kids show, even at home.

We have had enormous learning in these three or four weeks, we feel great about math – a confidence that will never leave us, and each of us is more than ready to go confidently into 3rd grade.

Not that they needed any carrots for doing math on SplashLearn, but the fact that we got to the leaderboard was certainly a big motivation. My students love to check the class points and standing on the leaderboard every day, but most importantly (and whether they eventually win or not), they feel immense pride in their work.
