Freckle Math has become an essential tool for third and fourth-grade teachers in both distance learning and classroom settings. Teachers rely on this platform to differentiate instruction and address the unique needs of each student, regardless of their math proficiency. By aligning with state standards, Freckle's adaptive math platform allows teachers to measure students' progress and tailor their learning experience accordingly. The integration of Freckle with Star Assessments ensures that students are working at their appropriate level.
Teachers utilize Freckle on a daily basis to offer student choice options and assign custom assignments. The platform's feedback, collaboration, and motivational features keep students engaged throughout their math journey. Freckle particularly proves valuable for Title 1 reading teachers and Dyslexia Specialists who can create classes for students with different grade levels, assigning lessons based on individual needs. It enables teachers to track progress, identify areas requiring further instruction, and provide additional support for students who are behind their peers in multiple grade levels. Besides being used by individual teachers, Freckle is widely adopted on a school-wide or district-wide basis, catering to grades K through 6.

Freckle in the Elementary
Our district began using Freckle by Renaissance for summer school last year. My students enjoy the avatars and earning coins. There are many options and many reports. Students are able to practice state standards, adaptive, and targeted skills. The customer service has been very helpful with the premium program. We also received several trainings before implementing the system.
- adaptive math practice
- math fact practice
- a variety of reading in fiction and non fiction
- targeted math practice
- ability to focus on common core standards
- There are SO many options- more training on how to limit and set focus would help
- more training on how to assign and what to assign to influence growth reports
- focus skills and missing skills should automatically be assigned- not something teachers need to find in a report to assign
- differentiating learning
- useful reports
- engaging activities

Freckle is used as an adaptive platform to support our students in reading and math skills. The reading platforms support students' phonics foundation skills, reading comprehension, grammar, and adaptive reading levels. The math platform coordinates with the state standards to measure and meet the adaptive needs of students. Freckle and Star Assessments connect to ensure students are working on their appropriate level. Freckle offers a variety of resources to help identify areas for improvement, progress, as well as growth on both platforms. We actively use Freckle each day with student choice options, as well as teacher-created assignments. Freckle offers feedback, collaboration, and motivation to ensure continued student involvement.
- Freckle does a great job adapting lessons.
- Freckle does a great job motivating students and participation.
- Freckle is very interactive with students and teachers to support continued participation.
- Freckle provides DOK challenge questions that support students' understanding after standards are met.
- Student inquiry and problem-based questions are also new additions to Freckle that help support led activities.
- I would like to see more reinforcement or reteaching videos to assign.
- Lesson organization tools would support the long list of assignments collect over weeks or semesters.
- I used Freckle in the free version and was very pleased with the opportunities it offered my students and the engagement is achieved.
- I currently use Freckle premium and continue to enjoy the benefits that Freckle provides to my student's growth, more so it now provides weekly reports and other analytical reports to support students.
I have used DIBELS Next extensively as a benchmark and progress monitoring tool. I feel the Freckle syncs well with the components of DIBELS Next to support student growth.

Freckle reinvented our online math instruction. With distance learning and the daily struggle to keep our students engaged, Freckle provided a platform for success. The combination of engaging characters and the colorful, quick mathematical problems (numeracy, number sense, and computation) gave my first graders a reason to turn on their iPads and tackle their assignments. The reports provided by Freckle are insanely useful. As an educator time is always a factor and desegregating data is always a chore. Freckle made understanding my students' strengths and weaknesses easy and subsequently allowed me as their teacher to plan meaningful instruction to fill educational gaps. Freckle is a wonderful product and one I would highly recommend.
- Provides fun and meaningful activities at grade level.
- Simple and clear reports that provide a meaningful snapshot of student achievement.
- Great tech support and assistance to navigate the Freckle journey.
- I was wowed by Freckle. Maybe our lack of access on the reservation makes me easily impressed, but at this time I cannot find fault in the programming.
- Freckle encouraged and supported my students in a very challenging distance learning framework.
- Freckle provided an engaging platform to encourage mathematical success.
- Freckle is teacher friendly and the reports are exceptionally well organized, clear, and easy to understand.
Freckle is by far the best online math program I've used. I've taught for 25 years and am a firm believer in hands on, project based mathematical instruction. With distance learning and the current classroom requirements during the pandemic, I needed to shift gears. Freckle proved to be a wonderful tool to support and drive pertinent instruction while providing real-time, necessary achievement information.
