Prodigy - Access through Clever

In PRODIGY MATH GAME, kids start by creating an account with a username and password. They'll need to provide a parent's email address to get the account set up. After selecting a grade level and naming an avatar, users meet a friendly creature who guides them as they enter a fantasy world filled with battles and rewards. As kids encounter monsters to battle, they must answer math questions to earn a spell. The spell helps kids win the battle and move forward in the game. Math questions adapt to kids' skill levels, and the more questions they answer correctly, the more spells, coins, and other rewards they earn. Though the game is free to use, there's an option to subscribe to have access to more content.
