8. Results: Change in Attitudes After 6 weeks on Prodigy, classes surveyed observed a: 23% increase in students stating they “like” or “love” math 19% increase in students indicating math did not make them feel nervous

9. Results: Phenomenal Engagement For every 1 minute a child uses Prodigy at school, the average child spends an additional 1.5 minutes at home, voluntarily

10. Using Prodigy for Best Results We recommend 30-60 minutes of in-school play per week (one lab period) for best results. On average, this results in an additional 45-90 minutes of voluntary play at home, for free!

16. What Teachers are Saying “My students have grown to enjoy math more and more this year, and Prodigy has been a big part of that. They are experiencing success while completing much needed practice of basic math facts - which has directly led to higher confidence and risk taking with higher order thinking problems that I present to them in class.” -Maria Tersigni-Wishart, Teacher, HWDSB
