As the name suggests, Studyladder is a website that gives a chance to do activities that cover a wide variety of skills related to literacy, numeracy, science, music, art, language and culture, health, safety, citizenship and much more.
The website is for kids of ages four to 12 years (Kindergarten to grade six). The site offers two options to choose from a free trial and the paid one, and of course the paid option has extra inclusions.
Studyladder is a web-based programme built by teachers to help students of all abilities to have fun while learning. First of all, the user either a parent, a teacher or child, needs to sign up to do loads of fun-filled activities in each discipline. All the activities are levelled, so choose tasks to the grade.
Children can learn road safety tips and do the exercise, know about chemicals in our houses, flags of the world, make bottle xylophone, letters and their sounds, matching, reading, writing, animals, computers, language, music and a lot more!
The website also allows parents to track their child’s progress and see what activities they are really good at, and which ones they are struggling with.
The funny thing is that children can create their own character in their account and see an alien that grows older the more they log onto Studyladder.
Children earn points for completing activities which they can then ‘spend’ in their rewards room. When children reach certain point levels, they can print out personalised certificates.
However, the free version of the site will give children access to only three different activities per day at home (this resets each day and they can choose different ones the next day).
But still, the website’s free version is full of fun and challenging activities!
