Study Island and Accessing from Home
(Study Island not only
helps prepare students for the state tests, but also provides teachers
with valuable diagnostic tools and information which enable them to
better prepare students for the state tests. The more time students
spend practicing with the Study Island program, the better they will
understand the material for their grade level. Students can access
Study Island from school, home, or from any computer that is connected
to the Internet)
Follow the instructions below, in order to complete the
program:
1. Login
at
www.studyisland.com.
2. Enter
your username and password at the upper left of the screen and click
"Login". Note: Students will receive a username and password from
their teacher at school.
3. Click
on the section tab (math) that you wish to work on.
4. Click
the "Pretest" in order to begin the pretest for the section. You must
complete 10 pretest questions before moving on to the topics in that
section.
5. Once
you complete the "Pretest", you may work through the remainder of the
topics in any order that you like. You must "pass" all topics before
taking the "Post Test".
6. To
pass a topic, you must satisfy the group's passing requirements which
are based on a minimum number of questions answered (usually 10) and a
minimum percentage correct (around 70%). A blue ribbon icon is
displayed next to all passed topics.
7. Once
you have passed all the topics in the section you have to pass the "Post
Test" for the section before the section is complete. Ignore this step
if the section has no "Post Test".
8. When
you pass all topics in all sections, you have completed the program and
should be well prepared to take the state test. |
