LET’S LOOK AT AN EXAMPLE LESSON TOGETHER


Imagine: You are introducing your class to decomposing fractions and
will be using IXL to support the day’s lesson.

1. Plan your lesson

Find the right IXL skills


Review your lesson plan and the supporting skills in your IXL skill plan.

Classwork skill
The first skill in this section introduces
students to the concept by having them
decompose fractions as unit fractions. This
would be a great classwork skill for kicking
off your lesson.
Homework skill
The second skill in this section builds on the
first by having students decompose fractions
with different numerators. This skill would be
a good choice to assign for homework or as
an enrichment activity.

2. Deliver your lesson

Whole class instruction


Introduce the concept by working through
questions from your classwork skill, as
a group. Use IXL’s explanations to model
each step of the process for your students.

Individual or small-group work


Release students to keep working on your
selected skill to deepen their understanding
of the concept. Remember that every IXL skill
is adaptive, and will guide students from
simpler tasks to more complex problems.

Assign homework
Assign your homework skill through your
learning management system or by clicking the
star next to the skill. Students should work on
this skill to a SmartScore of 80 (proficiency).
