Exciting Updates and Improvements
When educators speak, we listen. Explore the updates and improvements we've made to support teachers.
Co-Teacher Function
Your classroom, your collaborators
Multiple teachers can now work together in a single class, with roles and permissions that match how your district manages rostering. Co-teachers, interventionists, and long-term subs each get their own access with no shared logins.
Inquiry Hub Updates
A hub that works hard for you
The Inquiry Hub has been updated with clearer organization, improved navigation, and new resources designed for how you actually use it. Whether you're planning a unit, preparing for a team meeting, or supporting a new teacher, what you need is easier to find.
Social Studies Video Library
See what inquiry looks like in classrooms
The Inquiry Hub now includes a video library with classroom footage, protocol walkthroughs, and real examples of structured inquiry across grade levels. Share something at a team meeting, walk a new teacher through a discussion protocol, or see how other classrooms handle a specific moment.
Integrations
Less setup and more teaching
Automated rostering with Clever and ClassLink keeps teachers, students, and classes in sync with no manual setup required. LTI 1.3 integrations with Canvas and Schoology let teachers launch assignments directly from their LMS.
Curriculum Update Log
Always know what changed
The Inquiry Hub now includes a running log of curriculum updates, pulled directly from our content team as changes happen. You can see what changed and open the update log.

The students were insightful and open-minded during our unit. They learned all about global connections and how we can be global citizens. It has been an enlightening unit for the kids to see how connected we are to the people and places around the world. A student of mine is learning to read in Mandarin so he read a version of The Hungry Caterpillar, I read it in English, and our ESL teacher read it in Spanish. After we interviewed his mom who was pulled to America from Taiwan after falling in love many years ago. We learned so much! It was a great example of how globalization and cultural diffusion is alive and thriving. It was an incredible experience to have them see how everything we have been learning is a part of who we are as humans. We did a mural for our final product this time and they came up with the idea of a variety of people holding hands to show unity around the world. This is before it was hung up in the school.

These posters were made by one of the first grade classrooms. This was their way to demonstrate their understanding of diversity and how it's okay to be different.

Our steps for this project were inspired by discussing the multi cultural elements of the 2022 Winter Olympics. Games are something we can share and play together regardless of culture or language. Games can also be cultural diffusion. They decided to make posters, but with a comic strip embedded with the directions. We practiced presenting to each other and then took turns on the announcements. That will be an ongoing part of our project that will occur every Monday morning.

While completing the Navigating School Unit, we used shape blocks to create a map of our school. After creating this hands-on visual, we created picture versions with a few more details than the blocks allowed. Each group of students was in charge of creating a map of each of the main rooms of the school we use (classroom, office, lunchroom, library, gym, music, playground), then we all drew ourselves on one piece of paper labeled "US". We posted these up connecting each picture as well as to a (real) picture of our school building. The students enjoyed creating both versions of our school map and took great pride in having the web on display all unit.

This is a display our kindergarten created while discussing how we can help our school community by showing kindness. After completing a kindness page, each student was able to show their ideas and understanding on a wall in the hallway for all of the school to read and enjoy.
