Interactive, online curriculum personalizes blended learning for every child, leading to remarkable gains in students’ skills

Potomac, MD (Jan. 21, 2016) – MobyMax, innovator of personalized and blended learning curriculum for K-8 students, is helping Aldeane Comito Ries Elementary School in southwest Las Vegas reach its goal of establishing innovative, blended learning for all students.

“MobyMax sets up personal learning paths for each student and helps them fill any gaps that might be missing,” said Janice Heffernan, a blended learning strategist for the school.

MobyMax, a provider of personalized and blended learning curriculum for K-8 students, released Early Reading Trio, a new Touch Curriculum subject. In the curriculum, students start by learning sound-letter correspondences. Next, they practice interacting with familiar words in stories. Lastly, students finish the Trio by dragging and dropping words and pictures to “write” their own stories.

As many educators know, students often come into a classroom ranging below or above a certain grade level. Even the most experienced of teachers find this disparity challenging. Self-paced and differentiated learning can help strike a balance among student grade levels, but the question becomes what specific strategies will guarantee success?

On the first day back from summer break, a significant percentage of our students return to campus below grade-level in reading and math. As administrators and teachers, we know something has to change. While we can’t solve the dilemmas of society at large, we can address the systemic problems in school.

Now one of the fastest growing curriculum systems in the U.S., MobyMax has over 1,000 new teachers registering each day. What exactly does it do? “It finds and fixes missing skills in math, math fact fluency, language/grammar, vocabulary, reading, and writing,” says Glynn Willett (pictured), co-founder of the innovative learning ecosystem. From one of the most advanced systems for teaching vocabulary to their writing module that automates the grading process, last year, students using the platform for 40 hours averaged more than a 1.4 grade level increase in math and language arts. 

K-8 Cognitive Skills Science curriculum by MobyMax is based on transformative Touch Curriculum technology, which uses over 20,000 interactive manipulatives to engage students on a deeper level than traditional curriculum. Rather than simply reading textbook pages, Touch Curriculum gives students an immersive experience by dragging and dropping, repositioning, building, writing, creating, and more.
