We've got oodles of motivational tools to excite your students, but do your students know where to find them? To inspire kiddos to get to work in Moby, we've added some splashy images to their sign-in screens that will link to their motivational tools. Check out a preview of the new screens below!

Looking to get a major excitement boost in your classroom this year? Want to do something special (and easy) that inspires your kiddos to come in early, work without complaining, and exceed both your expectations and theirs?

Well, take a look at Moby Contests!!

The new school year is almost here, and that means it's time for us to archive student data to make room for 2018-19!

On July 31st and August 1st, we'll be doing our annual summer maintenance, which means that Moby will be inaccessible between 3 PM EST on Tuesday, July 31st and 8 AM EST on Wednesday, August 1st.

When Moby comes back online, you'll see that your student data has been archived. You’ll still be able to access progress history, placement test results, lesson scores, and session times in the “Prior Year” sections of your Moby reports.

However, if you will need your messages or specific student answers to problems, now is your last chance to review and print those out!

NOTE: Students who were working in Moby during the month of July will not be archived, so they can continue working uninterrupted.

We have enjoyed seeing thousands of teachers create bulletin boards to get their kids inspired, motivated, and doing the ‘happy dance’ from Day One. We would love to see your ideas, so here’s another fun monthly contest!

Simply post a picture of your Moby bulletin board on our Facebook page. We will also accept other creative visuals that you use to track Moby progress (like a decorated filing cabinet showing fact fluency progress or individual folder trackers.) We will select 5 winners at random on Friday, Aug 31 and another 5 winners on Friday Sept 28^th. Each winner will receive a $25 Amazon gift card. 

If you pop into Moby Assessments today, you might notice a few things have changed. We now have a new category of assessments called "Fluency Tests" and a brand new "Alphabet" assessment!

Slides are great when they’re on the playground. But in the classroom? The “summer slide” that many students experience between the last day of one school year and the first of the next can cost students two months of grade level equivalency in math skills. And that’s not all; knowledge retention in every subject can be affected.

That loss is hard on students, but it’s equally frustrating for teachers, who work hard to make every school day count. Thanks to the “slide,” they may as well have stopped teaching in April!

It’s no wonder so many teachers have started organizing MobyMax Summer Contests. Rather than just having students read through a few books or practice random multiplication tables, contests keep students from losing what they learned the previous year. In fact, with MobyMax, students actually gain new knowledge between June and September, enabling them to return to school raring to go.

We're giving away $25,000 worth of class parties to 1,000 lucky teachers! Not only is this a fun way to end the school year, but you will be helping us improve our assessments. Your class party is our way of saying thank you.

It's easy to participate and win - just follow the steps outlined below.

To enter to win a class party, make sure your students complete a Math Benchmarker after April 15th, 2018. 

More great fact assessments have arrived at Moby! We just released a new set of assessments for Addition and Multiplication. These assessments test students' fact knowledge for numbers 0-12.
