Study Ladder Interactive Maths Website!

This term Room 8 has been introduced to a maths programme called StudyLadder. It is a website to help us develop our maths skills. The website is www.studyladder.co.nz.

The aim of this website is to get more practise time on our Maths learning and Basic Facts.

We each have our own user name and password to log on with. When we have logged on we find some set activities and goals. The activities are set for our group skill. We only get to do two a day because of the site. But at school we only have to do one each so we can do one at home.

Once we have finished our activity we get to go on to games. The games are addition, multiplication,  division and subtraction.There are also Literacy games like Spelling Bee. All of these games are really fun yet educational. 

When you go on Study ladder you get an Avatar and you can edit it to make it look like yourself. You can change the colour of it's hair, eyes, skin, and top. Also you can pick you own logo for your top. It is a very fun way to learn maths.

In this website you get an alien pet that grows and becomes your friend. You also get a rewards room that you can decorate in lots of different ways. You earn money by playing games and doing activities. When you have enough money you can buy decorations, toys and pets for your room from the shop. Also we get certificates that get put up in our virtual rewards room.

Every two weeks Miss Rodman gives us ten new activities for each group and will sometimes leave a comment.
