Emma Main found Sumdog Maths:

• Builds student knowledge“Using sumdog daily has helped pupils gain a deeper understanding of math skills and fluency. Which has boosted their confidence within maths and numeracy lessons. However, if pupils are using sumdog sporadically or to prioritise the gaming aspect then the impact on student knowledge can be negligible.”
• Improves teaching efficiency“Sumdog allows extra support for all learners by highlighting skills which the students need to work on, via the teacher dashboard. After a task is set sumdog can differentiate these skills to either challenge or support students. The use of baseline testing and some ready made tests, at the start of terms also highlights where support is required.”
• Reduces teacher workload“Sumdog for me is used to help support during numeracy and maths or as a finisher after work is completed.”
• Improves attainment“The baseline assessments highlights what skills the pupils find a challenge. However, sumdog as an app can ensure that a deeper understanding of what is being taught in the classroom can be achieved through setting a task on sumdog and helping them further with a skill.”
• Reduces attainment gap
