Try the games
Nine things Ivy built. All of them work.
These are the games, apps, and printables from the student stories. Play them the way a student would. Each one started as a conversation about what a kid loves, then was mapped to a Common Core standard.
🦖 Built for Mateo, 3rd grade
Fractions finally clicked when they became fossils.
Fossil Fractions
Unearth fossil skeletons split into equal bone segments and name the fraction you have found.
Blueprint Blocks
Printable build challenges that hide fractions, area, and perimeter inside block builds.
Dino Number Line
A hallway number line where dinosaurs with different stride lengths step out halves, thirds, and sixths.
🐎 Built for Priya, 5th grade
A reluctant reader became the manager of her own stable.
Willow Creek Stables
Run a stable. Letters, vet reports, and invoices only make sense if you read them closely.
Stable Manager's Log
Narrative journal entries about life at the stable, with sentence starters and transition words built in.
Comic Vocabulary Cards
Each new vocabulary word becomes a comic panel. Drawing the word in context makes it stick.
⚽ Built for Jamal, 1st grade
Phonics on the move, math to a beat.
Phonics Penalty Kicks
Hear a word, pick the blend you hear, and kick. Ninety-second rounds that match a short attention window.
Skip-Count Drum Loops
Drum tracks that count by 2s, 5s, and 10s on the beat. Play along on a pad or the kitchen table.
Sight Word Sprints
Cones labeled with sight words. Hear a word, sprint to it, read it out loud. Ten words, five minutes.
