Short answer questions
Love Scootpad! The ability to add short answer questions in ELA would be great! I don't mind having to grade one or two questions myself. That way I can ask more in depth ELA questions and students can practice this skill before standardized testing!
3 votesHi there!
The writing portion is a great place to accomplish this as you can provide students with a prompt or question and they can respond!
Thanks for the support!

When looking at reports by standard it would be nice to assign a scootorial or assignment to students that score below a certain benchmark.

Spelling list
allowing parents to have access to spelling list provided to students
3 votesHello,
When students are using the platform and placed in a learning path by their teachers, the teachers can send the parents the spelling list. If you are managing learning through the At Home Learning Zone, you can also see the lists!

Make a student order on the behavior page. It is very difficult to find my students since they are in no particular order.

Currently ScootPad orders students by first name. You can reverse this when adding students by placing their last name in the first name field.

Features that would be helpful for teachers
Teachers would like to be able to turn off certain domains in the adaptive practice for students. So that students do not have to work on standards that have not been taught.
3 votesHello!
This exists! Teachers can create their own learning paths at any time which contain only the concepts they want the students to work in. Please review how by checking out our blog :)

3 votesHello,
This feature exists :) When parents have an At Home license or a homeschool account, they can assign assignments to their children. Please let us know if you have further questions!

Rigor of questions
I would like to see more rigorous questions. Even for my students who are working above grade level, the responding to text questions do not require lots of thought. Most of the questions in adaptaive practice are like this, regardless of the standard they are practicing. Even having a standard four answer choices for all responding to text questions will help.
2 votesThanks for the feedback! Please note that we currently offer over 50 different item types and 4 different DOK levels within the practice content. At this time, we suggest that teachers use the assessment content to hand pick questions with specific DOK levels or item types to ensure a higher rigor.

Students able to be in multiple classrooms
Adding a feature to let a student access multiple classrooms. For instance, if I have a student that gets pulled out to a resource room, instead of having that student only be allowed to be in my class, the student would have the ability to be in the resource class and my class. That way the resource room teacher can set up her own class with her students and give additional assignments instead of being a co-teacher in my class.
2 votesHi there – Thanks for the feedback/question. You can enroll the same student in multiple classrooms which can be managed by multiple teachers or co-teachers. Here are instructions on how to enroll “existing” students to other classrooms: https://scootpad.uservoice.com/knowledgebase/articles/683744-how-to-enroll-existing-students
Thanks so much for your feedback, support, and patience.

Mastery Reports
Would it be possible to print out assignments that students have already completed with out the answers? This would allow me the ability to send the assignment out with a student and a peer tutor to work together on items missed.

previous knowledge (kindergarten)
I teach kindergarten. I think it would be great if there were some concepts that helped support the common core concepts. Not all of my students come in that previously had exposure to these concepts. For example, students may not know their alphabet and need extra practice with it. Or even need help with specific letters and sounds.

We currently have PreK standards!
