IXL.com
IXL is an internet based program where students can practice skills for language arts and social studies (one year of social studies free with a subscription). The software is found at IXL.com and can be used for free up to 5 questions a day or a free trial can be set up easily. URL for download (Required)*: ixl.com
ixl.com
The program has questions similar to those found on standardized testing that help students focus on key concepts. The practice questions are easy to use in conjunction to instruction, Utahcompose, and other materials already approved for use on our classes. The students also get guided instruction if they answer questions incorrectly including examples and quick ways to remember difficult concepts. We've used this in the past when we were under the impression it was approved, and it has helped students master concepts at their own pace. We also use it in math and science which keeps the CORE practice in the same place making it easier for parents to navigate.
There is a free trial where you can answer five questions for anyone at the website. I can also send an admin account invite if necessary.
