Study Ladder

It has taken me a while but I have finally set up studyladder for Room 12. We will be completing some tasks in school but I'd like to encourage you to help your child work through some of the activities at home.

The website is www.studyladder.co.nz

None of the concepts I've set should be new so all the children will be fine completing these independently.

I have printed off their logins and passwords. Please let me know if you haven't received it or would like another one.

For those of you who haven't encountered studyladder before, I have copied the basics from their website which should answer most of your questions.

Dear Parent / Guardian,
This is a courtesy letter to inform you that your child's class is now using a free version of Studyladder, an online educational program which allows students to learn at their own pace.
About Studyladder
Studyladder is a K-6 web based educational program designed by teachers. The program is curriculum based and covers Mathematics, Literacy and 8 other subjects. Your child has been given a username and password which can be used to access Studyladder.
Using Studyladder
It is not compulsory for your child to use Studyladder at home, however regular access will help your child to reinforce what they have learnt in school. It will also help to build their confidence through practice.
Safe Internet usage
Studyladder is designed to prevent bullying and does not allow student access to social networking. Your child will NOT be able to chat with anyone via Studyladder. However, we encourage you to supervise your child at all times when using the Internet.
Recovering previous rewards and points
Students can recover their rewards and points from their previous accounts. To do this, students should log into their NEW school account, click on the HELP TAB and select RECOVER OLD POINTS. All of their past rewards will be recovered. This will also upgrade their new account if the previous account had premium access.
Accessing Studyladder from home
Go to www.studyladder.co.nz and login using your child's school username and password.
Parents have the option to sign up for a free home account which can be linked to their child's school account. Those who register will have access to their child's certificates and results. Studyladder does not charge for this service and it is optional to upgrade to premium access.
If you have any questions or require assistance, please email support@studyladder.co.nz
