But MobyMax makes getting started on the year’s learning both easy and fun! With just a few short steps, your students will be diving into their own personalized learning paths, watching teacher-created instructional videos, exploring and practicing critical concepts, and filling in their learning gaps.

It’s no secret that summer is a favorite time for students (and teachers!) to enjoy some much-needed time off. As summertime continues, many parents and guardians may be planning activities, looking for ways to keep their children entertained, or searching for strategies to beat the heat. There’s one additional question, though, that’s on the mind of many:

Here’s a Moby “How to” tip of the day!

In this video, learn how to spice up online practice and engage students using Moby Fluency Team Games and Fluency Board Games. While it’s definitely fun, the instruction is also high-quality and aligned to your state standards.

Here’s some of the feedback we received about this video on our YouTube Channel:

“I enjoyed watching the video and learning about the Fluency Board Game. My scholars truly need this to advance their reading through a learning game.” ~ Patricia C

“MobyMax is a great addition to any classroom! My students are on different levels. The fluency board games allow me to be able to put each student on the level they needed work on.” ~ Chaka D.

When the pandemic forced most schools to abandon in-class learning, most teachers quickly learned how to use Zoom and other technologies to keep their students engaged. Still, many teachers faced a real challenge that prevented them from delivering the quality they knew their students needed: they didn’t know how to record lessons that students could watch later.

MobyMax came to the rescue with an easy way to record lessons in a snap. Teachers can search from hundreds of existing lessons or create their own. Next, they utilize MobyMax’s Whiteboard Activities Module to create live lessons, which are recorded. With many students unable to attend some Zoom sessions, technology glitches, or just needing to re-watch a lesson, Moby makes it easy for teachers to record and send!

If your students could use a little encouragement during the summer, check out this quick video of all the motivation tools (Vibes, Certificates, Badges, Games, and Messenger) in your MobyMax account.
