APPROACH

Teachers and students both begin using Istation Espanol by creating accounts and logging in. Upon logging in for the first time, students complete a Spanish reading and literacy assessment. Istation then pairs the student with an appropriate curriculum based off of skill-level. Students select to start the program and follow animated characters and narrators through lesson tutorials. After each lesson, they answer interactive phonics, vocabulary, and comprehension questions. For correct answers, students advance levels and progress through the game.

Teachers download corresponding classroom lesson plans and resources to use in class from their teacher resource materials from their teacher resource dashboard. From their reporting dashboard, teachers monitor reporting graphics of student progress and performance through the game.
