Big IQ Kids

"Helping kids become and stay A+ students" is Big IQ Kids' motto! With this online program your child can work on his spelling, vocabulary, math, and increase his knowledge about the 50 states in America.

The following information is from Big IQ's Website:

Spelling: With a over 40,000 word dictionary, Spelling Time comes pre-loaded with 40 lessons for K-8th grade appropriate word lists. Or, as a parent or teacher, you can easily enter your own word lists and Spelling Time will automatically create a week’s worth of lessons, quizzes and tests around your own list with the goal of achieving 100% on the Friday spelling test.

Math: You can set up a child's lesson to mirror what they are doing in their current curriculum. For example, if the child is on double digit addition and single digit multiplication, the program can focus on just these two areas providing invaluable practice and reinforcement that is certain to provide them with the tools to ace their next test. Or, Big Math Time can automatically generate grade specific and subject specific lessons as per your requirements.

Vocabulary: With an extensive library of elementary through SAT prep words, Big Vocab Time comes pre-loaded with word lists OR, as a parent or teacher, you can easily enter your own word lists and the program will automatically create a week’s worth of lessons, quizzes and tests around your own list with the goal of achieving 100% on the week’s vocabulary test.

U.S. States: Every elementary student will be confronted with the need to know their US State facts to mastery. Big States Time is the ultimate tool in learning the state's location, capital, spelling, abbreviations and general state facts. The program allows parents/teachers to add additional facts which will be included in the child's lessons and the program culminates in a “State Mastery Exam” that, if passed with 100% mastery, awards the child a State Master Certificate.

Our family's opinion:

We were able to set up two accounts, and I chose to set one up for my Kindergarten daughter and my 2nd grade daughter. I have mainly worked on math with my Kindergarten girl, and my 2nd grader has worked on all four of the programs. Thanks to Big IQ, my 2nd grader has received a very strong foundation in multiplication. Before Big IQ she had never even done a multiplication problem before. The site was very easy for her to navigate and go from one activity to the other. As a parent, I really appreciate the emails I receive letting me know how my girls are progressing.
