TenMarks
Mr. Peterson's Blog by Josh Peterson, a 4th grade teacher
October 24, 2012

This is a new program recently added to my repertoire. It is great in the fact that it is easy to set up, implement, and track student learning and progress. As a teacher, you simply add the students names, choose your question level bank, and assign the work to the students as they progress through. There is a great Dashboard that gives you immediate colored graphs showing how the students are doing.

Student Evaluations, Part 1
The Rational Radical by Pam J. Wilson, a 9th grade teacher
July 14th, 2012

Each year I ask students to fill out evaluations on me - explaining I need their feedback so I can grow as a teacher. I tell them administrators can come into my classroom and give me an evaluation - but they are with me EVERY SINGLE DAY - they are the ones who know what's going on and I respect their views / opinions.

Fresh and New Friday: Build Math Skills with TenMarks
Engaging Educators by B. Curran, a 5th grade teacher
September 24, 2011

... I'm not just saying this as someone who read through their site. I've actually started using TenMarks with my own fifth grade class. The kids are hooked. They like that the questions are right at their level. They like the hints and tutorials. They like the instant feedback, both for every question and at the end with a percentage and a recap. We've only used it a short time and they're already asking me before math time, "Do we get to use TenMarks today?" I think that means it's a hit.

Today, Tenmarks.com is in the news (click here for this morning's news segment). My City Year Boston team at the Young Achievers School and the students we work with experienced the program first-hand a few weeks ago.
