IXL Information for Students & Parents:

I am pleased to tell you that we will be using a website called IXL in our classroom this year. IXL is a comprehensive learning program offering unlimited math practice across thousands of skills—all of which are aligned to Tennessee Standards. One of the best things about IXL is that your child can access it from home, so you have a chance to see your child's progress!

To get your child started on your home computer, please follow these easy steps:

1. Go to https://www.ixl.com/signin
2. Enter your child's username and password and click "Sign in."
   (Note: If the username and password are not listed below, they will be provided separately.)

Username:  Your child’s first and last name, no spaces or capital letters, and the number 467.  Ex. michellemassengale467

Password:  Your child’s first name followed by their grade number.  Ex. michelle8

3. Click on any skill to start learning!

IXL is designed to help your child learn at his or her own pace. The program is adaptive and will adjust based on your child's demonstrated understanding of the material. All of your child's results will be saved, so you can monitor his or her progress anytime by clicking on Analytics. For on-the-go practice, you can download IXL’s free tablet apps for iPad, Android, or Kindle and sign in with your child’s username and password.

I hope you'll encourage your son or daughter to use IXL regularly. Here's to a year of working together to make learning fun for your child!

Sincerely,

Dr. Massengale
