Boost Engagement, Math Communication, and Mastery Among English Learners.
Speak Agent Algebra+Language™ helps students to master key Algebra concepts and to develop critical skills such as math communication, algebraic thinking, and problem-solving. How? By seamlessly integrating academic language activities such as listening and speaking, real-world math stories, reading and writing scaffolds, crafting explanations, and tools for students to create and share their own math problems. Speak Agent aligns with your existing curriculum. It's easy to implement and has been shown by NSF research to be impactful with a dosage of as little as 30 minutes per week.

Word Gallery is a great way to visually introduce new math concepts to your class. It works well on a projector or screen sharing in Zoom. Or, students can use it as a digital word wall!
Math reading passages in Speak Agent, such as this Read Along, serve as a focal point for classroom discourse. All student responses are captured in the digital portfolio.
The digital portfolio stores open-ended responses, writing samples, voice recordings, and creative projects.
Explain Your Work uses context clues to model well-written explanations of solutions and error analyses. Then it provides scaffolds such as sentence stems, writing models, and word banks to empower students to craft their own explanations.
Speaking activities such as My Voice encourage students to verbalize math terms and concepts.
Sentence processing activities like Scrambled Sentences build comprehension by breaking mathematical explanations and stories into manageable chunks that students can manipulate.
