We have found that DreamBox usage is positively correlated with student achievement gains. To help ensure your child gets the most out of DreamBox, we have developed the following recommended usage guide:
In order for students to reach their weekly lesson goals, we recommend setting up multiple sessions of DreamBox throughout the week and having students complete at least one or two lessons every time they log in. Encourage students to develop the following habits:- Be okay with mistakes. As long as students complete lessons, DreamBox will be able to assess their comprehension and adapt.
- Work independently. Helping a student through a lesson can progress them beyond their current abilities and lead to frustration.
- Only use the virtual manipulatives. DreamBox lessons are designed for students to think through problems without the use of pencil and paper.
- Use the help/hint button when needed.
- Use headphones with the volume on.
