The Splash Math app includes the capability to e-mail a weekly "report" that includes the mathematical concepts the student is demonstrating understanding of and the concepts the student demonstrates difficulty with and is developing his/her understanding of.
The capability to e-mail a weekly report was activated when the individual Splash Math Grade 1 accounts were created for each student.
Weekly "reports" are e-mailed to my teacher e-mail. I review the report for each student and then share the report with the student's parents through e-mail (I forward each student's individual Splash Math weekly progress report to his/her parents). Each student's weekly progress report is then saved in the student's individual folder (I created an individual e-mail folder for each student).
Receiving and reviewing each student's individual weekly progress report provides additional data to identify the student's independent mathematical understanding and application relative to various mathematical concepts. Combined with assessments, observations, and other forms of "data", the data provided in the Splash Math weekly progress reports are utilized to identify and determine instruction supportive of individual student's needs and the instructional focuses for the Butterflies as a community of mathematicians.
Sharing the weekly progress reports with each student's parents provides an additional form of communication with parents relative to mathematical learning and development.
