Prodigy Math - A research-based, standards-aligned math practice tool
How Prodigy creates math content
The team of Education Specialists who create the math content are former educators.
Together, they regularly create content — researching learning standards and building content down into bite-sized skills that students can practice on their way to master learning.
Using their experience as classroom educators, they develop question hints and video lessons to ensure students receive accessible and appropriate scaffolding and content rigor.
Prodigy covers hundreds of math skills
Prodigy offers 1,500+ math skills ranging from first- to third-level DOK. On the lower end, students practice fluency and knowledge of basic concepts and routine procedures. On the higher end, they interpret and understand what the question is asking.
Educators and parents can use Prodigy as they work to support learners' understanding of the underlying math principles to ensure students don’t just grasp new knowledge — but learn to apply it, too.
Prodigy English
Built on research-based principles from the ground up
When it came time for Prodigy to design a second game, it came naturally for us to take a research-first approach. Starting with the Language and Reading threads within Common Core standards, Prodigy English is powered by the idea that digital games help students learn content and also increase their motivation.

In-game question accuracy correlated positively to test performance
Students with 10% higher response accuracy on questions within Prodigy Math was associated with 3.7% higher test scores.
68% More math skills mastered per month, on average in one school district
Students at Clifton Public Schools in New Jersey completed 68% more math skills (on average) on Prodigy Math in 2019-20 than in 2018-19.
15% higher median standardized test scores
In 3rd grade, high-usage economically disadvantaged students have a 15% higher median STAAR score than the low-usage group.
How Digital Game-Based Learning Improves Student Success
Compared to traditional instruction, digital game-based learning has shown to be more effective in improving students’ mathematical learning.
Here's what teachers are saying
"Students are most confident because of the extra practice they received with Prodigy. My students typically score higher than others on district screeners and math benchmarks because I am able to individualize and differentiate instruction using the Prodigy reports."
Math Interventionist and 2nd Grade Teacher, Wisconsin
"I've seen a 45% increase in my standardized testing scores thanks to playing at least 25 minutes a day in Prodigy. The bulk of their Prodigy time is in the morning when their mind is still fresh for learning and it also helps them get settled in for the rest of the day's learning."
3rd Grade Teacher, Indiana
"Struggling students love Prodigy. They think they're playing a game, but in reality, they are learning and practicing. Some of my heaviest users of Prodigy have become my best students. There is a positive correlation between Prodigy usage and student performance."
