Moby Max
This description comes from Common Sense Education.
MobyMax lends itself to independent practice both at school and at home. Teachers can present content with the whiteboard or interactive lessons. Then, instead of assigning worksheets, use the platform to design a contest for homework. After a daily session, use the poll feature on the Wall as a means of formative assessment. Be sure to plan regular sessions throughout the year to monitor growth; the site recommends an average of 15-20 minutes per week. Reports allow you to monitor progress and allow your students to reflect on their own learning (the charts, graphs, and short responses will be helpful). These results and reflections can also be useful to share with parents, perhaps via in-person or virtual student-led conferences.
For elementary school students, use the lessons in small reading or math groups as you target students who have similar goals or learning needs. For middle school students, consider setting up centers or stations using one of the lessons as an activity. For any class, practice active reading strategies, such as annotating, using the texts located in the site's curriculum library. The site's printable worksheets can support guided practice during class warm-ups, but to promote a more paperless and perhaps more engaging environment, consider using these as a starting point for designing digital worksheets using a tool like Wizer.

I would like to use this website in ELA centers to differentiate student learning. It would also be a good resource to go to when we have emergency snow days or emergency closures. There are so many ways to use this website in a classroom. This website is FERPA approved. No one is going to use this in place of Wonders or Go Math. This would be just an added resource for teachers--especially elementary teachers. So, for the life of me, I don't understand why we cannot get this website approved.
