IXL Learning

IXL is not just about helping your kids master fractions or subject-verb agreement, it's also about helping them enjoy learning. That means encouraging them to have fun! Unlike traditional workbooks and exercises, IXL offers hours of intrigue for students—without distracting them from grasping key concepts.  

One of the ways IXL makes learning fun is through hundreds of virtual awards that reflect kids favorite animals, foods, places, and hobbies. On IXL math, kids embark on one big treasure hunt to uncover hidden prizes, while on IXL language arts, kids try to complete their collections of stickers, stamps, balloon animals, and more!

IXL's inspiring awards and secret treasures make learning an exciting quest for knowledge. As students compete with their friends and work to uncover new prizes, they're sure to gain new skills and confidence along the way.
